What Types of Tree Survey Are Available in Wolverhampton?
Wolverhampton offers three survey types: Tree Condition Reports for homeowners checking tree health, Mortgage Tree Reports for lender conditions, and BS5837 surveys for planning applications.
Tree Condition Reports (TCR)
A Tree Condition Report assesses the health, structure and stability of specified trees on a property. Homeowners, landlords and property managers request this report to identify risk before a sale, subsidence claim or safety concern.
Mortgage Tree Reports (MTR)
A Mortgage Tree Report is required when a lender's valuation flags trees close to the property during a purchase or remortgage. This report satisfies the tree-related conditions set by major UK lenders before completion.
BS5837 Tree Surveys
A BS5837 survey categorises every tree on site by quality and retention value, sets root protection areas, and produces a tree constraints plan. Wolverhampton Council requires this survey to support planning applications involving trees.
