Help with root decay assessment in Suffolk

[Giles Hill]

Following the other thread, I'd like to further inspect an oak tree in Suffolk, using some of the techniques that were discussed at a Glynn Percival seminar I went to.

 

What I'd like to do is air spade the earth away from the butress roots and then measure any decay using suitable electronic means.

 

Where I'd like some help is I have neither the kit, nor the experience to use it...

 

Is there anyone local that'd be interested in helping, or can anyone recommend a company and give me an idea of costs? I'd need to get it agreed with the client, but I think the need can be justified.

 

PM if you like, I haven't used the PMs yet, so leave a note on this thread if you send one.
