Tree Surveys for Planning

According to the British Standard “Trees in relation to design, demolition and construction – Recommendations” BS5837:2012 (BS5837) appropriate measures should be taken to assess existing trees on and adjacent to a site when any new development is proposed. To ensure better design and layout, certain tree data; including species, age, crown spread/height, Root Protection Areas (RPA’s), and general condition are required.

Depending on the scale and stage of your application, the Local Planning Authority will expect to see supporting arboricultural surveys and reports before even validating your application.

Our tree surveys for planning services are aligned with the RIBA stages (Royal institute of British Architects) which enables seamless dove-tailing into your design team or architect.

Tree surveys made simple

Local planning authorities are increasingly scrutinising the arboricultural impact that a proposed development has on a site.

Applicants who fail to submit the relevant arboricultural surveys and reports can find the progress of their development slowed – often at a high cost.

By hiring our team of arboricultural experts for your tree surveying needs, we can prevent this from happening and speed up your project’s development by reducing the likelihood of objection or query from the Local Planning Authority.

FAQS

If there are any trees (or hedges) within or immediately adjacent (typically within falling distance) of your site, or access to your site, then yes. Get in touch now and we can confirm if you will require a tree survey or not.

The cost of an initial tree survey is usually dependent on the number of trees surveyed. Our fees start at £300 + VAT for typical house holder applications. Get in touch to get a tailored fee proposal for your project within 24hrs.

We typically complete our tree survey with five days of instruction, but this will be dependent on site access and provision of relevant plans in advance. Get in touch and we can confirm.
