Our Service

Qualifications & Experience 

My name is Paolo Bavaresco and I have been the proprietor of TMN Arboriculture for over 20 years. I have over 35 years continuous employment, education and training in Forestry and Arboriculture. I hold a post graduate certificate in forestry from Bangor university (2020) and a BTEC national diploma in arboriculture from Merrist Wood college (1994). I was a City & Guilds registered assessor and Lantra registered instructor and training provider for forestry and arboriculture skills. I represented the Institute of Chartered Foresters to the Arboriculture and Forestry Advisory Group (AFAG) for 5 years and continue to contribute in an independent role. I have provided specialist advice to HSE in their tree accident investigations and I am an independent member of the Forest Industry Safety Accord (FISA) #2799. I am a professional member of the Arboricultural Association (AA) #PR02228 and the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) #341505. My memberships require continued professional development and provide access to the latest published research in the most relevant journals. I provide a UK wide service.

Professional & Impartial

I am independent of influence and my advice is impartial. I do not provide a tree work service. I do not profit from recommending products or services. I operate in the public, private and utility sectors UK wide. I am located in North Wales and frequently work nationwide, with a history of operating abroad. I have a broad field of experience including training and education, tree work, research, auditing and consultancy. Therefore, I have a sound experience of broader tree management at craft, technical and professional level. This experience and knowledge provides clients with essential insights in advising, specifying and auditing tree work and planting projects I provide a professional and confidential service in accordance with the AA and ISA codes of conduct.

Insured

£1,000,000 professional indemnity insurance for advice.

£5,000,000 public liability insurance for field work.

Premiums can be boosted to meet client expectations.

Competent

Competent advice is fundamentally important to tree owners meeting their duty. Studies repeatedly show trees as fundamentally important to the well-being of society, with the most benefits arising in urban areas after trees reach maturity. Ill-considered tree work risks losing tree benefits for generations. When seeking opinion or advice regarding appropriate tree management, consider if it is insured, impartial, qualified and competent. If not, it could lead to a loss of natural assets and vulnerability in the event of a claim for negligence. As an experienced practitioner, I can be trusted to advise on appropriate management options that consider the risks, costs and benefits.

Proven

I have managed many trees for diverse owners over many years through the wildest weather recorded. Clients include Government agents, local authorities, framework contractors and private estates. I have inspected trees along 5,000 km of highway verge for two of my clients alone. Whether one tree or thousands, I assist my clients in managing their valuable tree assets, and help to ensure that clients meet their duty of care, as home owners, land owners and organisations.
