About Arborists
Arborists prepare the tree surveys and arboricultural assessments that councils require when development may affect trees. A BS 5837 tree survey categorises trees by quality and value, while an Arboricultural Impact Assessment identifies which trees are affected and how impacts can be mitigated. They produce tree protection plans, arboricultural method statements, and advise on root protection areas. Trees covered by Tree Preservation Orders (TPOs) or within conservation areas have legal protection, and any work requires council consent. For developments near significant trees, an arborist's report is a validation requirement — without it, the council will not register your application.
