The service

Is this the right service?

An onsite consultation helps you understand a tree issue, consider management options or choose the right report.

Project arborist support covers agreed construction stages, such as checking protection fencing or supervising work near retained trees, in line with the permit and protection plan.

When it can help

  • You want practical advice at your property.
  • A permit or TPS / TPP requires arborist attendance.
  • Your builder needs advice before changing work near trees.

The assessment

How it works

  1. Agree the scope

    We confirm the questions, attendance stages and any written records or reports required.

  2. Coordinate and attend

    We arrange access and timing, then assess the trees or supervise the agreed works. Construction visits must precede or coincide with the work requiring oversight.

  3. Confirm next steps

    We explain findings and follow-up actions, providing records where agreed. Additional work is scoped separately.

FAQ

Common questions

How much does an arborist report cost?

The price depends on the report type, number of trees, site and scope of work. Tell us what you need and we’ll provide a fixed-price quote for the agreed scope, including any travel costs, before work starts. Any additional work is quoted and agreed before proceeding.

Not sure which report you need?

We can help you work it out. Choose “Not sure which report I need” in the quote form and tell us about your trees, plans or what council has requested. You don’t need to know the report name before enquiring.

How quickly can I get a report?

Most reports are delivered within 2 to 5 business days after the site inspection, depending on the scope and number of trees. Tell us about any deadline when you enquire so we can discuss inspection availability and timing.

Will the report address what council has requested?

We prepare reports to address the relevant council reporting requirements for your application. Send us the council request or conditions, including any request for further information, so we can confirm the scope and next step. Council determines the application; a report does not guarantee approval. For more about reporting guidance, see Council Arborists Victoria resources.

What do you need from me?

Start with the full property address, a brief description of what you need and your preferred contact details. An approximate tree count helps, but “Not sure” is fine. We may ask for plans or council letters to confirm the scope.

Can you help if council asks follow-up questions?

Yes. We can clarify the findings and recommendations in your report. In most cases this is included at no extra cost. New assessments or work outside the original scope may cost extra; we’ll confirm the scope and price before that work begins.

Do I need a site inspection?

Most reports need a site inspection so we can assess the trees and surrounding site. We’ll confirm what is needed for your report when we discuss the scope.

What areas do you service?

We prepare arborist reports across Melbourne and wider Victoria. Travel fees may apply outside Melbourne and are confirmed in your quote. Tell us the property address when you enquire.

Do you work with builders and designers?

Yes. We prepare arborist reports for building and development projects, including work near existing trees. We can review plans early to identify tree constraints before the design is finalised.

Do you offer reduced pricing for repeat reports?

Reduced pricing may be available for repeat work or reports that can use the same collected site data. Tell us about the reports you need so we can confirm what can be reused and quote for the work involved.
