Tree Reports & Surveys

We offer an arboricultural and ecological consultancy service for trees and protected species advice.

Arboricultural Surveys       

Tree reports and surveys are required for various reasons, the most common being:

Planning applications: when seeking permission for any scale of development, either domestic or commercial, the Planning Authority may require a tree survey. This is to understand the impact of the development on the trees and hedgerows in the vicinity. Frequently planning permission will be granted with specific conditions attached, such as the retention of trees or the planting of trees or other vegetation to protect the existing amenity value of the area.

Generally a tree survey will include:

• Tree Survey Plan showing the location of all trees on which information is required
• Specific details on each tree, including age, height, stem diameter, structural condition
• Preliminary management recommendations and any other observations
• Tree Quality Assessment
• Tree Constraints plotted for each tree on relevant drawings

Safety: trees growing on your land are your responsibility. Tree owners owe a duty of care to others and are always liable for damage the tree may cause. If you know that a tree on your land is defective and damage subsequently occurs, you could be held liable for negligence.

If you are worried about the safety of your trees, or would like a structured management plan, please contact us for a written Tree Report.

Whether you have just moved property and the current land is unmanageable or perhaps you want to clear an area for access or for another purpose? Look no further for a service you can count on to get the job done, no matter how much vegetation there may be.
