Tree health and safety management is a critical service in the field of arboriculture, one that balances the physiological and structural risks of having trees on a property against their many environmental benefits. W.J. Kent Tree Consultants Ltd takes on risk-based surveys and tests on a responsive basis to identify defects, like decay and deadwood, and to deliver a range of remedial tree surgery services.
With a tree management strategy in place, you should be able to meet your duties of care as a landowner with far fewer complications.
Individual areas covered by our company include:
Banstead | Caterham | Coulsdon | Croydon | Epsom | Purley | Redhill | Reigate | Sanderstead | Sutton | Warlingham | Whyteleafe | Surrey

Risk-Based Inspections
During risk-based inspections, we prioritise trees based on location and target zone. High-traffic areas, like busy footpaths or schools, will require annual or biannual monitoring whereas trees in low-risk zones need less intensive care beyond what will be a routine check.
W.J. Kent Tree Consultants Ltd specialises in tree management. This service is suited to remedial works after strong winds and storms.
Tree Assessments
Informal observations are made to identify signs of instability, and these can be factored into routine maintenance work. Should you need a formal inspection, trees are checked from the ground up by one of our consultants, who also look for instances of decay or disease.
Tree health and safety management also includes detailed inspections for high-value or mature trees found in heavily-populated locations.
Remedial Action
W.J. Kent Tree Consultants Ltd has a choice of remedial services for decayed, diseased or unstable trees. Deadwood can be removed, crowns can be lifted, reduced or thinned, a bracing system can be used for preserving non-stable trees, or felling is used as the last resort.
Because we combine the services of a consultant and tree surgeon, it is possible to have all arboricultural needs met from just one call.
Our tree health and safety management service in Banstead, Caterham, Coulsdon, Croydon, Epsom, Purley, Redhill, Reigate, Sanderstead, Sutton, Warlingham, Whyteleafe and all Surrey areas preserves public safety and reinforces infrastructural integrity.
