A tree condition report can help prioritise maintenance and further inspection. A BS 5837 survey addresses trees in the context of development, including their dimensions, retention value and root protection needs. Its findings can inform supporting planning documents. The two surveys may record some similar observations, but their purposes differ, so a routine condition report may not meet a planning application's requirements.
What is the difference between a tree condition survey and a BS 5837 survey?
