Here at Arb Elite Tree Care, we have our own “in-house” team of dedicated tree consultants that handle all aspects of planning and legal issues arising from tree ownership. Our experts can assist with BS5837 compliant reports, visual tree assessments, TPO applications, strategic tree planting designs, subsidence investigations, predictive reports, and expert witness advice.
The team is extensively trained and is comprised of highly experienced operatives who all started off working at the coalface of arboriculture (rather than being career consultants). This means that all recommendations from us will be specific, measurable, attainable, and relevant.
BS5837:2012 Arboricultural impact assessments and method statements.
Whether you’re planning a new development or simply extending an existing property, there are often arboricultural constraints to the sites, which may entail design alterations, tree protection measures, and a schedule of recommended works. Whether we are involved from the start of the project or further down the line, we will focus on delivering a scheme that sticks as closely to the proposals as possible, and sails through the planning process, saving you money and time.
Our team will provide tree protection plans in CAD and PDF format, and can handle supervision statements as well as any design revisions.
Visual tree assessments
Problem trees? Do you manage a large parcel of woodland, or just have one tree in your back garden that you’re worried about? We can carry out detailed inspections that adhere to the guidance set out in NTSG Common sense risk management of trees 2011, to ensure that you, as the tree owner, have adequately discharged your duty of care. We will also provide a 5-year management plan so that there are no surprise bills in the future!
TPO applications
This is something we handle on a daily basis. Our experienced team can seamlessly guide you through the planning process, and will work to get you the result you want, even with the most recalcitrant LPA!
Selection, planting and design
For your next landscape project, let us help you with selection and design to deliver world-beating landscapes that would make Capability Brown jealous! Our expert team can advise you on tree species, position, planting and aftercare based on your site and soil conditions, to deliver a management plan that will succeed!
Subsidence investigations, predictive reports, and expert witness advice
It’s that issue that nobody ever wants to hear from a structural engineer’s mouth: “Your house is falling down and is now unsellable.”
But don’t worry… We are on hand to assist! With a robust knowledge of case, common and statutory law, our team can offer expert advice to make the management of the issue as stress free as possible.
Where you may be looking to purchase a property, with our detailed knowledge of building regulations, we are able to offer a predictive report mechanism to better inform you as to the likelihood of subsidence damage occurring! After all, forewarned is forearmed!
