Description

Treesafe is a patented foundation system that allows

construction close to or within a tree Root Protection Area (RPA). It provides the opportunity to increase the yield of a site by allowing an increase in the footprint of the structure and/ or adding additional plots to a development.


Features and benefits:

  • Approved by Arboriculturists.
  • Prevents damage to tree roots in a number of ways.
  • Can support a range of piling techniques, depending on ground conditions.
  • Hand augering techniques are used to identify any roots that may conflict with the proposed pile locations.
  • Pile design & location can be adjusted in-house to accommodate roots.
  • Potential damage to tree roots is minimised with lightweight piling rigs.
  • Treesafe is a version of our Housedeck and Comdeck systems, both are BBA certified and all major warranty provider approved: NHBC, Premier Guarantee and LABC.
