Tree Survey Buckinghamshire: Planning and Development

Tree surveys and reports will often be required for planning applications if a proposed development site will be within close proximity to trees and woodland. These types of surveys are needed as local authorities in designated areas are required to review and assess the potential impact that a development could have on the surrounding trees, especially if it may involve tree removal.

Detailed tree surveys for planning are necessary as retained trees are protected under the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990 and the Town and Country Planning Act 1990. This protection is typically in the form of conservation areas, Tree Preservation Orders (TPOs), and root protection areas.

We provide a range of services, including:

• Tree condition surveys
• Aerial tree inspections
• British Standard BS5837 tree surveys
• Arboricultural method statements/ tree protection plans
