BS 5837 Surveys for Planning in Forest Hill & Dulwich

Development in Forest Hill and Dulwich must respect the area's established treescape, including the planning considerations set by Southwark Council and the heritage sensitivities of The Dulwich Estate. Our BS 5837:2012 surveys provide the essential documentation for planning success. We produce accurate Tree Constraints Plans (TCPs), Arboricultural Impact Assessments (AIAs), and Method Statements (AMSs) to support thoughtful, tree-sensitive design and construction, even in densely populated or Conservation Area settings.

Each submission is underpinned by robust tree reports aligned to local planning requirements.

Tree Condition Surveys for Health & Safety

In areas with high footfall, such as Dulwich Park or around the Horniman Museum, ensuring the safety and longevity of trees is vital. Our Tree Condition Surveys identify structural or physiological issues and provide clear, proportionate recommendations in line with the National Tree Safety Group's principles. Our easy-to-read reports support responsible tree ownership and long-term risk management across residential and commercial properties alike.

Our health & safety tree reports are concise, defensible and easy to action.

TPO & Conservation Area Applications

Large parts of Forest Hill and Dulwich fall within Conservation Areas, with many individual trees protected by Tree Preservation Orders (TPOs). Securing consent for tree works in these contexts requires specialist knowledge. Canopy IQ handles the entire process, from assessing constraints to submitting robust TPO applications, ensuring compliance with Southwark Council and The Dulwich Estate’s guidance, and giving your application the strongest chance of success.

Arboricultural Mortgage & Subsidence Reports

The clay soils of South East London, particularly around Dulwich Village and Sydenham Hill, can present a risk of subsidence linked to tree roots.
