Benefits of Our Tree Inspection Services

If you have never previously considered having the trees on your land inspected or surveyed by a team of professionals, think about the benefits our inspection and survey services have to offer:

The Path to Compliance – Once your trees have been surveyed, we can prepare a detailed report for you to peruse at your leisure. The information contained in the report will depend on the particular service you choose but, in almost all cases, should include our recommended actions in the event any problems are discovered.
Avoiding Unnecessary Hassles and Expense – With regular inspections, you can keep a closer eye on your trees and take preventative action when early warning signs are spotted.
Smoother Planning Application Process – If you are applying for planning permission for a site on which trees are growing, you will almost certainly need a tree planning survey to support your application.
Actionable Information – Whatever your specific situation or requirements, a detailed tree survey from Epic Tree Care will provide you with the information you need to take decisive action.

Please feel free to call or message us if you would like to find out more about our tree inspection services in North East Scotland.

Carefully assessed the work to be done and promptly quoted. Agreed dates for the work to be done and came when they said. Carried out the work exactly as agreed. Team was organised and hard working. Tidied up well once the work was completed. I was particularly impressed with the stump removal and the care taken to make sure I was happy with the finished shape of the trimmed trees. Cost seemed high until I saw how many workers were in the team, what work was actually involved, how much wood had to be disposed of and the amount of equipment involved. I was completely satisfied with the work done and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.
