Hi Folks
I want to get 2 trees trimmed which are in my back garden and have a preservation order.
However, I need to apply to the local council in order to do that. I invited a tree surgeon to have a look at the trees a few days ago, who offered to fill in the application form and says that would cost £150. He went on to say that it is vital to get the wording correct on the application, or else it would be rejected.
Has anyone any experience of this? Shall I complete the application myself and see what happens, or do you think it would be worthwhile spending the £150 and asking the tree surgeon to complete the application?
Thank You
