Conservation Area Restrictions: Glasgow's numerous conservation areas impose additional tree protection requirements affecting commercial development options.
Protected Species Considerations: Our ecological survey specialists identify protected species habitats requiring special consideration during development.

Frequently Asked Questions
What Makes a BS5837 Tree Survey Different from Regular Tree Surveys?
BS5837 surveys follow specific British Standard requirements for planning applications. BS5837:2012 provides recommendations relating to tree care with a view to achieving harmonious and sustainable relationships between construction and surrounding trees. Regular tree surveys focus on health and safety, whilst BS5837 surveys assess development impact and planning compliance.
Commercial BS5837 surveys require higher technical precision, comprehensive documentation, and direct planning authority liaison compared to domestic assessments.
How Long Does a Commercial BS5837 Survey Take in Glasgow?
Survey duration depends on site complexity and tree numbers. BS5837 surveys typically take between one and five days to complete depending on site size and tree quantity. Our standard commercial turnaround is 48 hours from site survey to report delivery.
Emergency surveys can be completed within 24 hours when required for urgent planning submissions or pre-commencement meetings.
What Happens If Trees Have TPO Protection?
Tree Preservation Orders require special handling during commercial development. Our certified arborists identify TPO trees during initial assessment and provide compliance guidance throughout the planning process.
TPO applications require professional justification for any removal proposals. Our environmental compliance expertise ensures proper documentation whilst preventing £20,000 violation penalties.
Do I Need an Arboricultural Impact Assessment with My BS5837 Survey?
Arboricultural Impact Assessments cannot be undertaken until tree surveys are completed, and are typically required for full planning applications where development impacts retained trees. Commercial developments usually require both documents for comprehensive planning compliance.
We assess your specific project needs during initial consultation and recommend appropriate documentation levels to prevent planning delays.
Can You Coordinate with Our Architects and Planning Consultants?
Professional project coordination is essential for complex commercial developments. We work directly with your design team, providing tree constraint information during layout planning stages.
Our planning authority liaison experience ensures smooth communication throughout the development process, from pre-application discussions through construction monitoring.
What Insurance Coverage Do You Provide for Commercial Surveys?
CNJ Tree Services carries up to £5 million public liability coverage specifically for commercial projects. This comprehensive protection covers all assessment activities and provides security for large-scale developments.
Our professional indemnity insurance protects against errors and omissions, providing additional security for complex commercial assessments.
