What Types of Tree Survey Are Available in Abergele?
Tree surveys in Abergele fall into three types: Tree Condition Reports for homeowners checking tree health, Mortgage Tree Reports for lender-required assessments, and BS5837 Tree Surveys for planning applications.
Tree Condition Reports (TCR)
A Tree Condition Report assesses the health, structure and stability of a specific tree or group of trees. Homeowners, insurers and local authorities request this report to identify decay, disease or storm damage risk.
Mortgage Tree Reports (MTR)
A Mortgage Tree Report becomes required when a lender's valuation flags trees near the property boundary or foundations. The report satisfies the tree-related conditions set by major UK mortgage lenders before completion.
BS5837 Tree Surveys
A BS5837 Tree Survey categorises every tree on site by quality and value, sets root protection areas, and produces a tree constraints plan. Conwy Council requires this survey for planning applications affecting trees.
