A certified arborist report is a written assessment of one tree. It sets out the tree’s health, the risks it poses to people and property, and the recommended action, whether that is pruning, monitoring or removal. Councils use it to judge whether the tree can be worked on and under what conditions.
Councils across the Central Coast and Hills District commonly require a report before a tree removal application can proceed. It is most often needed when:
Applications stall when the report is vague, unqualified or missing the detail the council needs. A strong report is specific about the tree’s condition and the reasons for the recommendation.
Councils want clear evidence, not opinion. A properly prepared report answers their questions before they ask them, and that keeps applications moving.

Not sure whether your tree needs a report? Call 0475 463 597 any time and the team will point you in the right direction.
Every certified arborist report for council submission starts with an on-site inspection by AQF Level 3-5 certified arborists. They record the tree’s health, structure and species so the council has a clear, factual picture to assess. A free tree inspection comes first, so you know what the report needs to cover.
The report sets out any hazards the tree poses to buildings, power lines, neighbours or people. Trees Down Under is fully licensed, insured and Cm3 certified, and works in line with Sydney councils’ regulations, including any Tree Preservation Order (TPO) that applies to your property.
Each report states what the arborist recommends, whether that is pruning, monitoring or tree removal, with reasons that support your tree permit application. With 20+ years of experience behind the assessment, the recommendation is built to hold up under council review. To start, call 0475 463 597 any time.
Book a free tree inspection with no call-out fee, and the team will aim to give you a same-day quote where possible. Our Level 5 arborists prepare reports to suit your local council’s requirements. Call 0475 463 597 any time, or send your tree details through the online form.
Getting started is straightforward. Call Trees Down Under on 0475 463 597 during business hours, or send your details and tree information through the online form. Include the address, the type and approximate size of the tree, and any photos that show its position relative to buildings, fences or services.
An arborist then assesses the tree and prepares the report. Councils across Sydney, the Hills District and the Central Coast often ask for one when a tree is large, protected under a Tree Preservation Order (TPO), or growing close to a structure. A strong certified arborist report for council submission sets out the tree’s health, the risks it poses and the recommended action. Reports that leave any of these out are a common reason applications stall.
Check your council’s permit requirements before any tree removal goes ahead. The team can guide you through what your local council needs to see.
Trees on steep blocks, behind houses or close to powerlines still need a report that passes council submission. Trees Down Under’s crew is built for this.
