Stuck on a tree decision because council wants an arborist report? Trees Down Under’s AQF Level 3-5 certified arborists prepare the report your Annangrove home, business or development site needs for a permit. Book a free tree inspection and get same-day quoting, then leave the paperwork to a local team.
An arborist report is a written assessment of a tree, prepared by a licensed arborist after inspecting it on site. It records the species, size, health and structure, flags any risks to people or property, and recommends whether the tree should be pruned, removed or kept.
Council uses this document to decide whether works can go ahead. If a tree is protected under The Hills Shire Council’s Tree Preservation Order, the report forms part of the application, and without it an approval request is unlikely to be assessed.
Property owners are responsible for checking permit requirements before any tree removal or pruning starts. The The Hills Shire Council website sets out which trees are covered.
A report becomes necessary when a tree falls under the Tree Preservation Order, or when its condition or position puts people or property at risk. In Annangrove, that tends to mean renovations and new builds, storm-damaged trees, and trees growing too close to buildings.
Approval covers protected species, trees above set trunk dimensions, and trees in heritage or conservation areas. Check the council’s current rules before any tree is removed or pruned. The Tree Preservation Order and permit details are on the council’s tree management pages.
We work with every local council in Sydney. Permits don’t have to be a headache once the right report is in place.
