A tree survey in Andover is required for three situations: a planning application affecting protected trees, a mortgage lender flagging trees on site, or an insurer assessing subsidence risk near a property.
A BS5837 survey is required when a planning application affects trees on or near the site, as determined by Test Valley Council. A Tree Preservation Order makes it a criminal offence to cut, top, lop, uproot or damage a protected tree without the council's consent.
A mortgage lender requires a tree report when a valuation surveyor flags trees within influencing distance of the property. Halifax, Nationwide, Santander, Barclays, NatWest and HSBC accept these reports, and without one the lender withholds mortgage funds.
Subsidence risk arises when tree roots draw moisture from clay soil, causing the ground to shrink and foundations to move. An insurer requires a report identifying species, assessing root spread and setting management recommendations to reduce further risk.
Three survey types are available in Andover: Tree Condition Reports for general health assessment, Mortgage Tree Reports for lender requirements, and BS5837 surveys for planning applications.
A Tree Condition Report assesses the health, structure and stability of a tree or group of trees. Homeowners, insurers and property managers request one to identify hazards and recommend remedial work.
A Mortgage Tree Report is required before mortgage completion when a valuation report notes trees on or near the property. It satisfies major UK lender requirements for approval.
A BS5837 survey categorises every tree on site into grades A to U, sets root protection areas and produces a tree constraints plan for Test Valley Council submissions.
A tree survey includes a site visit by a qualified arborist, inspection of every tree within scope, species identification and condition assessment. The written report adds recommendations and photographs, delivered within 5 working days.
A tree survey in Andover takes 7 to 10 working days from booking to report delivery. The site visit lasts 1 to 3 hours, and a 48-hour urgent option covers mortgage deadlines.
The cost of a tree survey in Andover depends on the survey type, the number of trees and the size of the site. The quote is fixed before the site visit takes place.
The fixed price covers the site visit, the full written report and follow-up questions afterwards, at no extra cost.
Consultants qualified in arboriculture carry out every tree survey, holding public liability and professional indemnity insurance. Reports are written to BS5837:2012 and are accepted by Test Valley Council, mortgage lenders and insurers.
