Keeping Northern Ireland’s Trees Healthy: Why Regular Surveys Are Essential (by Andrew Boe)

Northern Ireland’s landscape is a tapestry of lush greenery, with trees playing a vital role in our environment and quality of life. From the ancient oaks of our historic estates to the vibrant street trees lining our towns, these natural assets deserve our care and attention. As a professional tree surveyor, I, Andrew Boe, understand the importance of regular tree assessments in maintaining their health and safety.

Why are regular tree surveys so crucial in Northern Ireland?

  • Climate & Weather: Our region experiences diverse and often challenging weather conditions. Strong winds, heavy rainfall, and occasional frosts can weaken trees, making them susceptible to disease and damage. Regular surveys help identify potential hazards before they become dangerous.
  • Urban Development: As our towns and cities grow, trees are often subjected to increased stress from construction, pollution, and soil compaction. Surveys ensure that trees within development zones are properly managed and protected.
  • Public Safety: Trees in public spaces, parks, and along roadsides pose a potential risk if they are unstable or diseased. Regular assessments identify these risks, preventing accidents and ensuring public safety.
  • Conservation & Preservation: Many of Northern Ireland’s trees are of significant ecological and historical value. Surveys help monitor their health, detect early signs of decline, and implement appropriate conservation measures.
  • Planning Applications: When planning development, a professional tree survey is often required by local councils. This helps ensure that proposed developments do not negatively impact existing trees and that new plantings are appropriate for the site.
  • Disease and Pest Control: Early detection of diseases like Ash Dieback, or infestations of pests, can increase the chances of successful treatment, and prevent the spread of problems to other trees.
