An Arborist Report is a professional assessment of a tree or group of trees prepared by a Level 5 qualified arborist. It documents information such as tree species, condition, structure and surrounding environment, and provides professional recommendations for how the trees should be managed.

You may need an Arborist Report for a council application, development approval, proposed tree removal, construction project or concerns about the condition or safety of a tree. Reports provide documented professional advice that can be used by property owners, councils, builders and other professionals when making decisions about trees.

It depends on the tree, property and relevant council requirements. Where a tree is protected or removal requires approval, council may request an Arborist Report to support the application and explain why removal or other works are recommended.

An arborist may assess the tree’s species, size, health, structure, visible defects, surrounding environment and proximity to buildings or proposed works. The assessment is then used to provide appropriate recommendations for pruning, retention, removal, further investigation or ongoing management.

Ideally, engage an arborist early in the planning process, particularly where established trees are located close to proposed construction or civil works. Identifying tree constraints early can help inform design decisions, establish tree protection requirements and potentially avoid delays or unexpected issues later.

An Arborist Report gives you clear, documented advice from a qualified professional rather than relying on assumptions about a tree. It can help support council and development applications, guide appropriate tree management, identify potential concerns and provide property owners or project teams with a clear plan for what happens next.
