Tree Reports for Property Purchase, Mortgage or Insurance
Assessment for the potential of trees to impact buildings is often a requirement:
- Before purchasing a property
- When renewing home insurance.
Reports are often requested by insurance companies if:
- Trees are identified within 15m of a property or
- There is a history of localised subsidence.
This may be required before agreeing a premium or as a condition by mortgage lenders.
What the Report Covers
Connick Tree Consultancy will undertake a tree survey and produce a report specifically tailored to meet the above criteria.
- All trees within influencing distance of a property are surveyed.
- The property undergoes an external visual assessment to look for indicators of structural damage relating to trees.
- The site soil type is identified and an assessment made of the potential for those trees on the indicated soil type to cause direct or indirect damage (subsidence).
The possibility of each form of damage is assessed and, if required, recommendations to mitigate or improve that rating are given.
