Expert tree advice for successful development
Protecting valuable trees while helping projects move forward.
Trees can be one of the most significant planning constraints on a development site. Our arboriculture consultants help clients understand tree related risks, satisfy planning requirements and develop practical solutions that balance development objectives with tree protection and environmental responsibilities.
Arboricultural surveys, assessments and tree management expertise
Our arboriculture consultants provide a full range of tree surveys, impact assessments and management advice to support planning applications, development projects and ongoing site management. We work closely with developers, architects, planners and local authorities to ensure tree related considerations are addressed efficiently and effectively.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Do I need a tree survey for my planning application?
If trees are present on or near your site, a tree survey may be required to support a planning application and demonstrate how trees have been considered within the design.
What is a BS5837 survey?
A BS5837 survey records the condition, quality and constraints associated with trees on a development site and forms the basis of planning and design decisions.
Can trees stop a development from going ahead?
Not necessarily. Early arboriculture advice can help identify solutions that balance development objectives with tree protection requirements.
What is a Tree Preservation Order (TPO)?
A TPO protects specific trees from being removed, damaged or altered without consent from the local authority.
Can you help discharge tree related planning conditions?
Yes. We regularly prepare the surveys, method statements and protection plans required to satisfy planning conditions.
Do you provide tree management advice after planning permission is granted?
Yes. We support projects through construction and provide ongoing tree management and maintenance advice where required.
