A tree survey in Trinant is required for planning applications near protected trees, when a mortgage lender flags trees on site, and when insurance or subsidence risk assessment is needed.
Caerphilly Council requires a BS5837 survey when a planning application affects trees within the site or on neighbouring land. A Tree Preservation Order makes it a criminal offence to fell, top, lop or damage a protected tree without the council's written consent.
A mortgage lender requires a tree report when a survey flags trees close to the property or its foundations. Halifax, Nationwide, Santander, Barclays, NatWest and HSBC all request one before releasing funds, and the lender withholds the mortgage offer without it.
Tree roots draw moisture from the soil near foundations, causing the ground to shrink and foundations to move. Insurers require a report showing species identification, root spread assessment and management recommendations before confirming subsidence cover.
Trinant offers three survey types: Tree Condition Reports for general health checks, Mortgage Tree Reports for lender requirements, and BS5837 surveys for planning applications.
A Tree Condition Report assesses the health, structure and stability of trees on a property. Homeowners, landlords and insurers request one to identify decay, disease or storm damage risk.
A Mortgage Tree Report is required when a lender's valuation surveyor flags trees near the property during a purchase or remortgage. The report satisfies the requirements of major UK mortgage lenders.
A BS5837 survey categorises every tree on site by quality and life expectancy, sets root protection areas and produces a tree constraints plan. Caerphilly Council requires this survey for planning applications affecting trees.
A tree survey includes a site visit by a qualified arborist and inspection of every tree within scope. The arborist records species identification and assesses each tree's condition. The written report includes recommendations and photographs, delivered within 5 working days.
A tree survey in Trinant takes 7 to 10 working days from booking to report delivery. The site visit takes 1 to 3 hours. A 48-hour urgent option is available for mortgage deadlines.
