Need an arborist report for a Galston property? Trees Down Under’s AQF Level 3-5 certified arborists, based in the Hills District, prepare detailed reports that councils accept. Book a free tree inspection and get a same-day quote, with no hidden fees.
An arborist report is a written assessment of a tree on your property. It sets out the tree’s condition and health, the risks it poses to people, buildings and neighbouring land, and the actions the arborist recommends.
Those recommendations might include retaining the tree, pruning it, monitoring it over time, or removing it. Councils across the Hills District, including those covering Galston, often ask for a report like this when a homeowner applies to remove or work on a tree.
A report is also useful outside the permit process. Property owners commonly need one for large or protected trees, building and development plans, boundary disputes, and trees damaged in a storm.
A good report is detailed and easy to follow. It should describe what the arborist found, explain the level of risk in plain terms, and give clear next steps, so you and your council can see exactly why a tree should stay, be managed or come down.
Often, yes. Councils commonly ask for an arborist report before approving tree removal or major work, and a report from an AQF Level 3-5 certified arborist supports your application under local regulations. Requirements differ between councils, so check the specifics for your property before any tree removal goes ahead.
Trees Down Under has worked in the Hills District since 2005, with arborists holding AQF Level 3-5 qualifications on every job. The team is fully licensed and insured, and Cm3 certified.
We work with every local council in Sydney. Permits don’t have to be a headache when the report is prepared properly.

Two generations of hands-on knowledge sit behind each assessment, and specialist equipment, including our own crane fleet, means difficult sites are handled safely.
The free tree inspection comes with no call-out fee, and same-day quoting means you hear back quickly. Your arborist walks the site, explains the report, and guides you through the council permit steps before any work is booked.
If the tree needs to come down, the crane fleet handles tricky access with no extra fees. Green waste and debris disposal is included, so the site is left clear.
The crew works from Dural, a short drive from Galston, and responds 24/7 to emergencies across Sydney. Locals have rated the business 4.8/5 across 182+ Google reviews.

Getting started takes one step. Call the team during business hours on 0475 463 597, or submit your details and tree information through the online form. Quotes are usually turned around quickly.
Have a few details ready: the property address, the tree species if you know it, its approximate height, and what concerns you. A fallen limb, leaning trunk or damage near a house or fence is worth mentioning. Photos help, as does a note on any access issues, such as steep ground or tight side gates.
Cost depends on the size and number of trees, how hard the site is to reach, and whether a council permit is needed before any tree removal. If a report leads to removal, that is quoted separately, so you can see each figure before deciding.
For storm damage or a hazard that cannot wait, say so when you call so the team can prioritise it.
