Forestry
Rope Access for Forestry & Arboriculture
Trees are dynamic, unpredictable structures. As a result, the work carried out in and around them (inspection, pruning, felling, rigging, cable bracing) demands operatives with specialist training, sharp judgement and a precise understanding of load dynamics.
Rope Access in London provides rope access support for arboricultural contractors, estate managers, local authorities and land management organisations across London and the surrounding region.
Our services in Forestry include:
- Advanced climbing and aerial rescue support for arboricultural operations
- Rigging and technical takedown of large trees in confined urban spaces
- High-level tree inspection and condition surveys
- Cable bracing installation and tensioning
- Access to elevated structures within wooded or green belt environments
- Rope access support for ecological survey work in tree canopies
London’s urban forest presents a unique set of challenges: confined spaces, proximity to buildings and infrastructure, public safety considerations and the need to minimise ground impact.
Our operatives combine IRATA rope access certification with arboricultural expertise, giving clients a team that understands both the technical demands of working at height and the specific requirements of the trees they work in.
All works are planned with detailed risk assessments and method statements tailored to the specific site conditions.
