Honesty, Integrity, and Unrivaled Experience
Improperly designed, installed or poorly maintained plant material may grow or develop defects creating hazardous conditions such as an impaired visual sight line, blocking driver or pedestrian view, dropping twigs, leaves, fruits, flowers and sap.
Improper plant selection and or location is a frequent cause for horticulture tree and plant lawsuits. Compounding issues including landscape design, plant location, installation and post construction maintenance practices have a direct impact on both the establishment and long term success of the plant material.
A horticulture case may involve multiple deficiencies including plant palette selection, location, design and layout, grading, drainage, poor soils, site line intrusion, irrigation coverage issues and more. Improperly selected plants poorly adapted to the site conditions may create a safety hazard to the general public.
Turf may grow over depressions creating hidden trip and fall hazards. Tree roots in confined planters grow under curb, gutter and sidewalks, damaging infrastructure and creating open and obvious hazards.
