One quote journey for all arboricultural enquiries

Tell us what you are trying to achieve. We’ll guide the route.

You do not need to diagnose the technical service before you contact us. Choose the closest option in the form, or use “Help me choose” and explain the problem in your own words.

01

Planning & Development

BS5837 surveys and planning reports where trees may affect an application, design, condition discharge or construction stage.

02

Tree Surveys & Safety

General arboricultural inspections and professional advice where condition, safety, management or tree risk needs to be understood.

03

Roots, Subsidence & Specialist Advice

Root-related concerns, cracking or movement, decay testing, report review, disputes and more complex expert arboricultural questions.

Not sure which service you need?

That is exactly what “Help me choose” is for.

Technical arboricultural terminology is not something a client should have to learn before making an enquiry. Describe the situation, paste wording you have received, and upload any useful plans, photos or existing reports.

The form can narrow the likely route, but a consultant still checks the professional scope before pricing.

Examples of perfectly good enquiries You can start in plain English.

The form is built to handle real-world enquiries rather than forcing every client to know a report name.

Planning“The architect says I need a tree report for planning.”
Property“My mortgage surveyor has asked for an arborist report.”
Safety“I am worried about decay and a large branch over the house.”
Roots“There is cracking and the insurer wants the trees assessed.”
Why Arbor Cultural

Fast online start. Human professional judgement.

The quote form is there to make the first step easier. The actual value is the arboricultural judgement behind the scope, survey, testing, report or advice you ultimately receive.

01

Independent Consultancy

The focus is professional arboricultural advice rather than using the report to sell tree surgery.

02

Consultant-Reviewed Scope

Your enquiry is checked before pricing so the proposal can reflect what the project or problem actually requires.

03

Existing Information Considered

Where useful, send older surveys, reports, plans, wording or photos so unnecessary repeat work can be avoided where possible.

Clear Fixed-Fee Proposal

The proposal sets out the agreed scope and fee before you decide whether to instruct the work.

Before you request a quote

Common quote questions.

You do not need to have all the answers before starting. The form is designed to ask only what is relevant to the route you choose.

What if I do not know which tree survey or report I need?

Use the “Help me choose” option and describe what you have been asked for or what you are trying to solve. You can also paste wording from a council, lender, insurer, architect, developer or other professional. A consultant can then check the likely route before pricing.

Why do you ask for email first?

Email is the simplest way to connect the quote request from the start. The rest of the form remains progressive, so you are not asked for a full set of contact details before you have even explained what you need.

Can I upload plans, photos or an existing report?

Yes, where the selected route supports them. Existing information can be useful for understanding the request and may help avoid unnecessary repeat work where appropriate.

Do I need to know the number of trees before I start?

No. Give the best information you have. If tree numbers or site scale are relevant to pricing, the form or consultant can clarify that later.

Can you help with a planning application?

Yes. The general quote journey includes BS5837 planning and development work, including survey/report stages and related arboricultural planning services.

Can you help with a mortgage or property purchase?

Yes. The property route is intended for buying, selling, mortgage, lender, surveyor and insurance-related arboricultural enquiries.

Can you investigate suspected root damage or subsidence?

Yes. The quote form has a roots and subsidence route for concerns involving cracking, movement, suspected root influence and professional or insurer involvement.

Do you provide decay testing?

Yes. Specialist tree assessment can include decay-related investigation and, where appropriate, testing methods such as Picus or Resistograph work depending on the concern and scope.

How much will the work cost?

The fee depends on the service, site, tree numbers, complexity, available information and required output. The aim is to confirm the appropriate scope and then provide a clear fixed-fee proposal before you instruct.

How quickly can you complete the work?

Turnaround varies by service, survey availability, access and complexity. Add any important deadline to the enquiry so the team can confirm what is realistic for your particular job.
