South Lanarkshire Council requires a BS5837 survey for planning applications affecting trees near or within a proposed development site. A Tree Preservation Order prohibits felling, topping, lopping or wilful damage to protected trees without council consent.
Halifax, Nationwide, Santander, Barclays, NatWest and HSBC require a tree report when a mortgage valuation flags trees close to the property. Without the report, the lender withholds funds until the risk is assessed.
Tree roots draw moisture from clay soil, causing the ground to shrink and the foundation to move. An insurer requests a report identifying species, assessing root spread and setting management recommendations before renewing cover.
