Construction Tree Management FAQs

Here are some common questions we are asked about tree management during construction. We hope these answers provide helpful guidance. But, if you have more questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out!

Planning ahead is key to protecting your trees. It’s a good idea to bring in an arborist before breaking ground. They are the best ones to assess the health of your trees and recommend the best steps to protect them. 

Keep an eye out for changes in your trees after construction. Signs of stress include things like yellowing leaves, wilting, or branches dying back. Sometimes trees under stress can also fall victim to pests and diseases. If you have any concerns, it’s important to call an arborist right away. 

It depends on the extent of the damage. While severe damage can be tough, it’s not always a death sentence for a tree. An arborist can evaluate the situation and recommend steps to help the tree recover. 

Recovery time varies depending on the tree species, the severity of the damage, and how well you care for it. Some trees bounce back quickly, while others might take several years. Providing proper care, like regular watering and fertilization, can help speed up the recovery process. 

Yes, many jurisdictions have laws and regulations in place to protect trees during construction projects. These laws can vary widely depending on the county you live in, but they often include provisions such as:

  • Requiring permits for the removal of certain trees, especially those of significant size or species.
  • Designating specific areas around trees where construction activities are restricted or prohibited.
  • Mandating the replacement of removed trees with new ones, often of a similar size and species.
  • Requiring measures to mitigate damage to existing trees during construction, such as using protective barriers or avoiding root disturbance.

Dyer's Tree Service can assist you with navigating these legal requirements and developing a comprehensive tree protection plan. We will work closely with your local planning and zoning department to ensure compliance with all applicable laws and regulations.
