“This company comes highly recommended with exceptional individuals. Over a three-year span, Beechwood Tree Care assisted us in obtaining permission to remove a tall, unsafe protected tree from our small garden. Despite delays caused by local authorities, the appeal process ruled in our favour. The tree removal was completed to a very high professional standard a few weeks ago.”
We have a deep understanding of what is likely to be approved, which can vary by LPA. Our expertise often leads to better results than if you were to apply independently. You may require a tree report to support your application. Our experts have a proven track record of obtaining TPO permissions where others have not succeeded.
We believe it is crucial to have a conversation first. We need to know:
1. What issues do you have with the tree(s)?
2. What is an ideal outcome for you?
3. What compromise would you accept?
We handle the whole process for you. We have a deep understanding of what will be approved and we also create a tree report to support your application.
An invoice for payment will be issued through our online system once the job is complete. You don’t need to worry about paying on the day; we provide easy payment options such as via BACS or over the phone.
At Beechwood, we pride ourselves on building long-term relationships with our clients. If you have a problem tree that is protected by a Tree Preservation Order, we can help you achieve the results you are looking for and guide you through the whole process. Choose Beechwood Tree Care and you won’t need anyone else to meet your arboricultural requirements.
Tree Preservation Orders (TPO) are issued by local planning authorities (LPA) in England to protect trees, groups of trees, or woodlands. A TPO prohibits cutting down, topping, lopping, uprooting, or damaging a tree without written permission from the planning authority.
Breaching a TPO can result in court action and fines. You may apply for permission to perform reasonable work on a tree, but you must provide valid reasons. The LPA’s tree officer typically assesses these applications.
We understand the process can be frustrating. Most tree officers are passionate about trees and the environment. In the English planning system, trees can be a contentious issue. What seems reasonable to you, such as leaf drop, light blockage, or potential hazards, may not be viewed favourably by a tree officer.
Their role is to protect trees, and they often face complaints or harassment for doing their job. After years of handling unreasonable requests, tree officers may default to “no” unless you can prove a tree is unsafe, which can be challenging.
Whether you are responsible for 1 or 1000 trees, Beechwood Tree Care has the experience and capabilities to care for your trees effectively and efficiently. We provide a wide range of solutions covering all aspects of arboriculture.
