We regularly inspect all trees on our property using a risk-first approach. Some trees are inspected more frequently based on potential future risks.
Reasons We Do Not Perform Tree Work
We do not carry out work on trees for the following reasons:
- Roots in drains
- Overhanging branches or encroaching roots
- Leaf fall
- Shading (including issues affecting photovoltaic panels)
- Obstruction of a view
- Improving television, broadband, telephone, or satellite reception
- Honeydew or “sap” deposits
- Bird droppings
- Dispersal or fall of items such as acorns, nuts, berries, or blossom
Reporting an Issue with a Tree
If the tree is located on our land, we will attend to it when necessary.
To report an issue, you need to send a report to the Places & Spaces team. Be sure to ask the contract holder for:
- A full description of the tree’s location
- Whether the tree is on Bron Afon (BA) land
- Any other relevant information
