Get to know us

With a professional background as Local Planning Authority (LPA) Tree Officers, we bring an in-depth understanding of council expectations and planning requirements to every project. Our expertise in BS5837 tree surveys, planning submissions, and tree-related legal constraints ensures that the reports we produce are clear, robust, and fully aligned with local authority standards.

Our experience is not limited to consultancy. Coming from a practical tree surgery background, we understand first-hand the realities of site work and tree management. This allows us to provide advice that is not only technically sound, but also practical and cost-effective. We bridge the gap between planning requirements and real-world implementation—helping projects progress smoothly from report to completion.

Our mission

Our approach is conservation-minded and evidence-based. Wherever appropriate, we advocate for the retention and protection of trees, ensuring that development and tree preservation can work together successfully.

We recognise that landowners have a duty of care in managing their trees responsibly. Trees deliver immense environmental, social, and economic benefits: enhancing biodiversity, improving air quality, mitigating climate impacts, and contributing significantly to landscape character and wellbeing. At the same time, these benefits must be balanced with the need for safe coexistence. Sensible, informed management is essential to retain suitable trees while addressing risk proportionately and responsibly.
