Tree Preservation Order (TPO) Applications
A Tree Preservation Order, also known as a TPO, is an order made by local planning authorities to protect an individual tree, groups of trees or woodlands. It is not imposed to prevent tree surgery being carried out to the tree(s), merely to ensure the correct implementation and practices of it.
At Wood's Tree Consultancy Ltd, we are familiar with local authority ideals on the correct tree work procedures and how to gain a successful outcome.
Our experience in carrying out health & safety tree surveys is vast. We have completed hundreds of surveys for various clientele, these include private householders and estates, military establishments, camping sites, care homes, schools and many other types of establishments and companies.
It is especially prominent in schools that regular health & safety inspections must be carried out to maintain a site safety level that is acceptable for children. The same can be said for many public establishments: hospitals, offices, care homes, parks. The list is by no means exhaustive, but it is important to highlight the necessity for regular tree surveys in areas of high traffic.
A thorough health & safety tree survey will ensure that you are aware of the health of the trees, any defects they may have, and how to rectify them. Thus improving the overall safety of the site.
TREE
PROTECTION
Trees have been around longer than we have, so it is important that we protect them. Local authorities will issue a tree preservation order (TPO) on a tree that they deem worth preserving. This does not mean that it cannot be worked on if it is required, it just means that the work must be done correctly. We can assist you in applying to carry out the work and correct method of doing so.
