Professional Tree Assessments Throughout the Clarence Valley
Expert Advice for Healthy, Safe & Secure Trees
Not every tree needs to be removed. Sometimes, a professional assessment is all that's needed to determine the safest and most appropriate course of action.
At Big River Tree Services, we provide comprehensive tree assessments for residential, rural and commercial properties throughout the Clarence Valley. Whether you're concerned about a tree's health, structural stability, storm damage or potential safety risks, our experienced team can inspect your trees and provide honest, practical advice.
Our goal is to help you make informed decisions while protecting your property, your family and the long-term health of your trees.

What Is a Tree Assessment?
A tree assessment is a professional inspection that evaluates the health, condition, and structural integrity of a tree.
During the assessment, we consider factors such as:
-
Tree health and vitality
-
Signs of disease or decay
-
Dead or damaged branches
-
Structural weaknesses
-
Leaning or unstable trees
-
Root health and stability
-
Storm damage
-
Risk to nearby buildings, vehicles, or people
-
Future growth and maintenance requirements
Every assessment is tailored to the individual tree and the surrounding environment.
When Should You Arrange a Tree Assessment?
A professional assessment is recommended if you notice:
-
A tree leaning more than usual
-
Dead or falling branches
-
Cracks or splits in the trunk
-
Hollow sections or visible decay
-
Mushrooms or fungal growth around the base
-
Exposed or damaged roots
-
Trees growing close to buildings
-
Trees affected by storms or strong winds
-
Sudden leaf loss or declining health
-
Concerns about the safety of large or mature trees
If you're unsure whether a tree is safe, it's always better to have it inspected before it becomes a hazard.
Our Tree Assessment Process
Every property is different, which is why we take the time to conduct a thorough on-site inspection.
During your assessment, we will:
-
Inspect the tree's overall condition
-
Identify potential hazards
-
Assess structural integrity
-
Discuss any safety concerns
-
Recommend the most appropriate course of action
-
Explain whether pruning, ongoing maintenance or removal is the best option
-
Answer any questions you may have
Our advice is always based on what is safest and most practical for your property—not simply recommending tree removal when it isn't necessary.

Following your assessment, we may recommend:
-
No action required

Routine tree maintenance
-
