Tree branch cut tree climbing arborist

$1,500

Louis did a fantastic job cutting back the branches of a large tree in difficult conditions. Other arborists have tried in the past but only managed to do a fraction of the work that Louis did. He gave great advice on what is best for the health of the tree and stuck to the task in hot windy conditions. My neighbours have since commissioned him to do some other work for them after seeing the job he did. Thanks Louis

What do arborist services include?

Arborists are often referred to as tree surgeons because of the intricate nature of their work and their focus on tree health when making recommendations. Using their industry experience, they consider all proposed outcomes and best practices before offering solutions or methods that are suitable for the situation. Whether it's for tree maintenance or management, here are some of the common you can expect when hiring arborists in your area:

Arborist report

An arborist report is usually needed to support council applications and development plans. The report may inform you about the tree species, health, safe useful life expectancy, and arboricultural rating. You might be applying to the council for development approval (DA) or for approval to remove trees from your property. This is important because removing trees can’t be done without council approval! 

Your arborist will check for pests and disease, any structural defects, and identify species of plants and trees present before writing their report. They’ll make written recommendations in the report, supported by photos and evidence. This will accompany your application and assist the council in its decision-making process. Consulting arborists may also use this report in case you need it for other purposes, such as dispute resolution or tree risk assessments. 

Tree trimming, pruning & removal

Tree trimming and pruning are necessary to maintain the health and safety of many trees. An arborist makes sure your trees are pruned or maintained in a way that enables them to flourish and grow afterward. Trees may be trimmed or pruned for safety reasons, or to ensure their long-term viability. If a tree is diseased or dying, tree removal may be the only option. Your arborist consultant will consider all factors before making a recommendation for removal with your tree workers.

Annual tree inspection

An annual tree inspection is a proactive way to ensure the safety and longevity of the trees in your garden. Your arborist will thoroughly inspect trees and vegetation on your property to identify current and preventable concerns. They will then provide guidelines for maintenance or an action plan to rectify any problems, so your garden can continue to thrive. Keep in mind that tree inspections are different from arborist reports - the latter provides more thorough documentation on tree management and maintenance.

Garden mapping

Garden mapping can be used in any garden but it’s especially useful for heritage-listed gardens. Your arborist will prepare a catalog that identifies species types and locations for each tree or shrub in your garden. You might use mapping to help manage your garden or plan future landscaping changes.

Certified Arborist Report for Body Corporate (tree root damage)

$500

Moorabbin VIC, Australia

22nd Jan 2024

Hey, I require a certified Arborist report to present to a body corporate in a claim for damages that have since been repaired from tree roots to my drains. The body corporate has stated they will not take any responsibility without a report saying the tree roots came from one of their trees which are within meters of the drains, (only trees within miles) There is already a detailed report from plumbers with photos and videos of the damage cause and the tree roots. It could only be one of two trees in my opinion there is one within 2 m of the location where the roots were discovered. Please let me know, Warm Regards, Nick - Due date: Flexible
