A tree survey in Cardross is required for planning applications near protected trees, for mortgage applications where a lender flags trees on site, and for insurance claims involving subsidence risk.
Argyll and Bute Council requires a BS5837 survey for planning applications affecting trees on or near the site. A Tree Preservation Order makes it a criminal offence to fell, top or lop a protected tree without consent.
A mortgage lender requires a tree report when a valuation surveyor identifies trees close to the property. Without one, the lender withholds funds until the risk is assessed. Halifax, Nationwide, Santander, Barclays, NatWest and HSBC accept reports written to BS5837:2012.
Tree roots draw moisture from the ground beneath a property, causing soil to shrink and foundations to move. Insurers request a report identifying species, assessing root spread and setting out management recommendations before covering subsidence risk.
Three survey types cover Cardross: the Tree Condition Report for general risk assessment, the Mortgage Tree Report for lender requirements, and the BS5837 survey for planning applications.
A Tree Condition Report assesses the health, structure and stability of individual trees. Insurers and property owners request one to identify risk before a tree causes damage or injury.
A Mortgage Tree Report is required when a lender's valuation flags trees near a property during the purchase process. The report satisfies the requirements of major UK mortgage lenders.
A BS5837 survey categorises every tree on site into one of four grades, sets root protection areas and produces a tree constraints plan. Argyll and Bute Council requires this survey for planning applications affecting trees.
