NICOTERRA

Ways Nicoterra will work with you!    

Tree Preservation:

Tree pruning and preservation:  the health of your trees is the number one objective.  During a site visit, I would like to hear your concerns and tree history.  I will present steps that will benefit your trees and share with you how I work.  I will then provide you with an written estimate.

If there are serious tree health concerns, I may recommend a Tree Diagnostic that details contributing factors to tree stress.  If there are concerns about a hazardous tree condition, I may recommend a Tree Hazard Assessment that involves an assessment of each tree structural element and its probability to fail; this is a legally defensible document provided in a matrix format between tree and target by the International Society of Arboriculture.

Trails and Ecological Restoration:

Site review and a clear scope of work with my client will get us started.  I typically produce a simple Plan View of the project for discussion and calculation of quantities.  Design-build hours are billed separately but at the same rate.  IF the client is ready to implement the project we can execute a Small Works Contract for a firm fixed price or for a Time and Materials approach.  I then invoice the client monthly and provide a journal of work accomplished.  I have a performance guarantee to satisfy client expectations with the caveat that there are limits.  If there are failures in my work I will endeavor to address them to the best of my ability.

I appreciate it best in working closely with my clients to enhance landscapes that bring out the best qualities in nature, aesthetics, and function; and I look forward to working with you!
