Construction Tree Services
Three flagship services, one accountable arborist
Most projects need tree data first, protection next, and documentation throughout. LES delivers all three, coordinated so nothing falls between a consultant’s report and the crew in the field.
Tree Inventory & Mapping
Field-tagged tree number, species, DBH, condition, and disposition, coordinated to your survey or base plan for permitting and development.
Learn more →Tree Protection Planning & Installation
Protection zones, barricade and fencing installation, root and trunk protection, and clearance pruning built into the construction sequence.
Learn more →Construction Tree Monitoring & Reporting
Scheduled and event-driven inspections, protection maintenance, tree-health monitoring, and pre- and post-construction reporting.

Construction Arborist FAQ
What does a construction arborist do that a tree company doesn't?
A construction arborist works to the project's plans, permits, and schedule — identifying tree assets, planning protection, translating requirements into field measures, monitoring impacts during active construction, and documenting conditions for the project record. The focus is preserving designated trees through development, not residential trimming or removal.
When should an arborist be involved in a construction project?
As early as possible — ideally during due diligence or permitting, and always before clearing, grading, and equipment mobilization. Early involvement is when tree inventories, protection planning, and clearance pruning have the most value and the lowest cost.
Can LES both plan and install tree protection?
Yes. LES provides the arborist documentation and planning and installs the field protection — protection zones, barricades and fencing, root and trunk protection, and prescribed clearance pruning — then monitors and reports through construction. One accountable team instead of separate consultants and installers.
Does LES provide surveying or engineering?
No. LES provides arboricultural field services and coordinates its work with the project's licensed surveyors, engineers, and design team. Tree data can be coordinated onto a client-provided survey or base plan.
