Get StartedNot Just Rural Properties, Explained For Theale
Theale properties don’t need to be old, listed, or rural for a bat survey to become relevant, an ordinary roof replacement can prompt the requirement on its own. Confusing this with heritage assessment, which is a separate question about historic significance, is a common and costly mistake.
Where a Theale project genuinely needs both, we handle them as the distinct pieces of work they actually are, not a single bundled assessment that misses what either one requires.
We’re upfront with Theale clients that a preliminary bat check isn’t always the final word, results can escalate to further survey requirements depending on what’s actually found.
