Trees and Planning

The status of trees and their inclusion in planning considerations has increased dramatically in recent years. Local Authorities require detailed information regarding integration of trees in design, demolition and construction.

Our arboricultural specialists ensure that all our work complies with BS5837:2012.

How we can help

We provide the following arboricultural information concerning trees and planning;

  • Preliminary Tree Survey: This is used to by our arboriculturists to determine which tree specimens are suitable for preservation on site. This report also determines what, if any, constraints this would place on site development.
  • Tree Constraints Plans: This is a plan showing tree location, dimensions, BS5837 retention category and any possible constraints.
  • Implications Assessment: This report highlights the possible conflicts and effects of tree works on the project design and suggests ways of mitigating the impact both on site and with neighbouring properties.
  • Arboricultural Method Statement: This type of report is often required as a condition of planning. Our arboriculturists provide detailed guidance to ensure developers avoid unnecessary tree damage. The report also highlights the level of protection and maintenance required for each retained tree. Tree Protective Fencing might also be required. 
  • Tree Protection Plan: This plan demonstrates how the retained trees will be protected during site development.

 

Tree and Tree Hazard Inspection

Our tree and tree hazard inspections involve a comprehensive tree survey to establish whether a tree is significantly defective or at risk of becoming a risk to property or the public. The report by our qualified, professional tree surgeons will include recommendations regarding what further tree work is required to reduce potential hazards.
