Why it was refused

  1. Works to be carried out to BS 3998 "Recommendations for tree work" by a suitably competent and qualified contractor.
  2. Insufficient evidence submitted that the trres are responsible for damage at the property. A Structural Survey report would be necessary detailing evidence as per the requirements set out in the application form.

From the council's decision notice.
