Professional Reports and Consultations

Managing trees in the urban environment is a complex task. The Tree Company is active in helping householders to interpret council guidelines and regulations concerning tree management. This often includes advice on permit applications for clients planning renovations or extensions to their property. The Tree Company has good working relationships with a number of local councils and has participated in the development of standardised guidelines for reporting, tree preservation and treatment in two eastern Melbourne municipalities.

Our professionally trained and experienced consultants regularly provide tailored Arboricultural Reports to assist residential clients (for example, as part of an application to council for tree removal), local councils, schools, architects and developers, for purposes as diverse as planning and construction, valuation, risk-assessment, property damage and insurance issues. In addition to providing detailed assessments of individual trees, reports include, where appropriate, specific information on how to protect and preserve trees during construction projects.
