An arborist report is a document that provides detailed information on the condition and health of trees as well as any recommendations in regards to what should be done with them. An arborist report is typically requested by local councils but may also be prompted by the tree owner themselves, as they provide supportive information for what mitigation options are available regarding trees on your property. Only a consulting arborist holding a minimum Australian Qualification Framework Level 5 in Aboriculture is qualified to provide an arborist report. Arborist reports are particularly critical when engaging in large scale building projects on your property.
