Comprehensive Tree Surveys and Inspections by Experienced Arborists
Whether you own a single tree or manage a large number of trees across an estate or commercial site, understanding the health and condition of your trees is essential for keeping people and property safe. At Quill Hall Arboriculture, we carry out detailed tree surveys for both domestic and commercial clients across Buckinghamshire and Hertfordshire, providing clear written reports with practical recommendations that help you make confident, well-informed decisions about your trees.
What Our Tree Surveys Cover
A thorough tree survey goes well beyond a visual check. Our arborists assess the structural integrity and stability of each tree, identify signs of disease such as ash dieback or Dutch elm disease, and carry out decay analysis to understand how any fungal activity is affecting the tree internally. We also provide guidance on Tree Preservation Orders and ensure any recommended works are compliant with local planning requirements. Following the survey, we will outline any immediate concerns requiring urgent attention as well as longer-term maintenance recommendations to keep your trees in the best possible condition.

FAQs
What is a tree survey?
A tree survey is a structured assessment of the condition, health, safety, and legal status of one or more trees on a property. It is carried out by a qualified arborist and results in a written report detailing findings and recommendations. Tree surveys are commonly required for planning applications, insurance purposes, property purchases, and routine safety management.
How much does a tree survey cost?
The cost depends on the number of trees to be assessed, the size and complexity of the site, and the level of detail required in the report. We are happy to discuss your requirements and provide a quote before carrying out any work.
How often should tree surveys be carried out?
For most properties, a tree survey every three to five years provides a good baseline for ongoing management. However, trees that are older, showing signs of decline, or located close to buildings or public areas may benefit from more frequent inspections. We can recommend an appropriate schedule based on the trees on your specific site.
Can a tree survey identify diseases?
Yes, our arborists are trained to identify a wide range of tree diseases and conditions, including ash dieback, Dutch elm disease, and various forms of fungal decay. Early identification is important, as it can help prevent the spread of disease to other trees on your property and allow remedial action to be taken before the situation worsens.
Do I need a tree survey before carrying out tree work?
Not always, though a survey can be very useful in helping to determine the most appropriate course of action, particularly for older trees or those showing signs of decline. For planning applications or insurance purposes, a formal written survey is often a requirement.
Can a damaged tree be saved instead of removed?
Where structurally sound enough, yes. Remedial pruning, bracing, or monitoring may be appropriate depending on the extent of the damage. Our arborists will always explore options for preservation before recommending removal.
