Tree Consultancy in Folkestone

Professional Tree Consultancy in Folkestone

Down to Earth Trees offers tree consultancy in Folkestone for clients who need reliable assessments, accurate reporting and guidance they can trust. Whether you manage a single tree or a large site, our consultancy service supports safe management and informed choices.

Starting with Your Requirements

Before any inspection takes place, we confirm exactly what you need the consultancy for. Different goals require different approaches, so we take time to understand:

• Your concerns or plans

• The type of report you require

• Any deadlines or planning needs

• The history of the site

This helps us prepare the right level of assessment before visiting the location.

Site Visits and On-Ground Evaluation

Once the details are confirmed, we arrange a site visit in Folkestone. During the inspection, we assess each tree carefully, taking note of species, structure, condition, surroundings and any visible defects. We also consider nearby buildings, footpaths, access routes and any factors that may affect safety or long-term stability.

The aim is to gather accurate information that supports clear, practical advice.

Types of Consultancy We Provide

Our consultancy service covers a broad range of assessments, including:

• Safety and condition inspections

• Planning and development surveys

• Tree protection advice

• Reports for mortgage and insurance purposes

• Management guidance for ongoing care

• Advice for sites with protected trees

• Independent assessments for dispute resolution

Each report is produced to the standard appropriate for its purpose.

Support for Planning and Development in Folkestone

Folkestone includes areas with established tree cover and locations where planning conditions must be met. If you are preparing an application or carrying out works near trees, you may need documentation that aligns with local authority expectations. We identify constraints, recommend appropriate measures and prepare reports that support responsible development.

Helping Property Owners Understand Their Trees

Many of our clients contact us because they want clarity about the condition of trees on their property. We provide straightforward advice that explains the condition, risks and options available. This includes guidance on maintenance, monitoring and any remedial work that may help maintain safety and long-term health.
