Shropshire Paddock Equestrian

We would have no hesitation in recommending Salopian Consultancy

Bridgnorth Rugby Football club employed the services of Salopian Consultancy for a recent planning application for a new clubhouse and a separate Sports Facility. It was helpful to be able to have a consultant able to cover two aspects of the required reporting, that being both the Arboriculture and Ecology reports. We found that Salopian Consultancy had a good understanding of the requirements of the local authority, both reports being accepted by the council without further comment or additional works being required. The reports were produced within our required timescales and to a commercially acceptable budget.

We would have no hesitation in recommending Salopian Consultancy to any potential developer requiring Arboriculture and Ecology reports for a planning application.

We really enjoyed working with him and would definitely recommend him to others!

It has been great to work with Salopian Consultancy on a few different projects on the farm. Doug works to a very high standard, producing comprehensive reports in a timely manner. What we were most impressed with was his keen interest in what we're trying to achieve on the farm. It was great to talk our ideas through with Doug and take his advice on board. We really enjoyed working with him and I would definitely recommend him to others!

We found them to be reliable and professional throughout the process

Salopian Consultancy carried out a Tree Condition Survey for us in 2018. We found them to be reliable and professional throughout the process. The area covered included some private, residential land usage. Doug was very accommodating and sensitive to this fact. We found him to be a good communicator both with our company and other affected parties or stakeholders. His report was thorough and detailed. Whilst he has the necessary knowledge in this sector, his reports are practical, readable and can be clearly understood by a non-specialist. We intend to use Salopian Consultancy in the future and would not hesitate to recommend’

Sara Ball - Clive Hall

A very professional service

It was a pleasure to work with Salopian consultancy on a number of recent projects. They provided a very professional service from the prompt response to the initial inquiry, through to the survey work and preparation of the associated report. I was able to discuss the project during its design development and gain valuable advice on the existing trees and how best to protect, manage and mitigate with replacement planting for any necessary removal.
