Frequently Asked Questions

Are these documents accepted for council and commercial work?

Yes. The systems are built from real, live paperwork used on council and principal-contractor sites. They follow standard UK expectations for RAMS, COSHH, PUWER and supporting documentation.

Final acceptance always sits with the client or principal contractor and these are designed to meet the level typically requested for commercial arboricultural work.

Are the documents fully editable?

Yes. All operational documents are supplied in Microsoft Word format and are fully editable.

You are expected to adapt them for each job — this is deliberate, as site-specific paperwork is a requirement for commercial work.

Is this UK-specific?

Yes. The content, terminology and structure are written specifically for UK arborists and grounds maintenance contractors, using UK health and safety conventions and expectations.

Is this suitable for sole traders as well as larger teams?

Yes. The systems are used by sole traders, small teams and growing businesses. They are designed to scale with you — from occasional commercial jobs through to regular council or principal-contractor work.

Do I need an app to use ArbDesk?

No. ArbDesk is designed to be used digitally without apps or subscriptions. All documents work on tablets, phones and laptops using Word, Excel, and PDF. You can edit paperwork on site using an iPad or tablet, store it in OneDrive or Google Drive, and submit it as Word or PDF — exactly how principal contractors and councils expect to receive it.

Is this just a generic template?

No. This is a structured system, designed by people using them on site. Not a single generic document.

Each pack contains interconnected documents designed to work together (for example RAMS linked with COSHH and competence declarations), reflecting how paperwork is actually reviewed on commercial sites.

What happens after I purchase?

You receive an instant download containing the full ZIP package.

Each system includes a READ ME FIRST guide explaining what each document is for and how to use it properly.

Do I need any specialist software?

No. You only need standard Microsoft Word.

Guidance documents are supplied as read-only PDFs.

Will this replace professional health and safety advice?

No. ArbDesk provides professional document systems, not legal or consultancy services.

You remain responsible for ensuring your paperwork is accurate, site-specific, and appropriate for the work being carried out.
