How Can I Tell If a Tree Is Hazardous?
As it is the property owner’s responsibility to provide for the safety of trees on their property, it’s important to keep an eye out for potential defects and hazards. Increasingly, insurance companies refuse to pay out for damage caused by trees if they have not recently been surveyed. Our tree surgeons are experienced in surveying and carrying out any work that’s required, but common, easily identifiable hazards include:
- Adjacent or Nearby Trees That Are Fallen or Dead
- Cracks and Cavities in the Trunk or Major Branches
- Trunk Leaning Strongly In One Direction
- Roots Damaged, Injured, or Broken off
- Recent Construction in the Area
- Decayed Wood in Trunk or Branches
- Mushrooms at the Base of the Tree
- Recent Construction in the Area
What Is a Tree Preservation Order?
If you live in an area designated for conservation by a local planning authority, any trees and woodlands on your property may be subject to a tree preservation order (TPO). These orders prohibit the cutting down or wilful damage or destruction of trees or woodland without consent, which can be obtained with six weeks’ prior notice.
Trees that are dangerous or hazardous are exempt from TPOs, but 5 days’ notice may still apply. The maximum penalty for felling TPO trees without consent is currently a £20,000 fine. If you are unsure of whether your problem trees are protected, consult our experienced tree surgeons and we will do all due diligence.
