Arborist reports are required by council for building and development projects and sometimes for permission to remove trees. In some cases, a written arborist report is even required for tree pruning. The two most common arborist reports are Health and Condition Assessments for tree removal permits and Impact Assessments for building development approvals.

Local councils across Melbourne have different rules and processes for permit applications. Our arborists can guide you through the requirements in your local area.

Tree removal is dangerous work. Wood is very heavy and trees can move in unexpected and violent ways as they are being cut down. Power lines, tricky access and working close to houses are frequent factors which make the job even harder. Our arborists are fully trained and experienced in the safest and most efficient methods to bring down trees. They are experts in removing hard to access, dangerous, overgrown and awkwardly positioned trees. For your peace of mind, Tree Access is fully insured up to $20M.

Pruning performed by an arborist can reduce the height and weight of a tree, let in more light and help the tree to thrive. Our arborists are trained to understand the needs of different tree species, and expertly prune to reduce wood and foliage without harming the tree.

A tree is a complex, living organism which needs certain conditions to stay healthy. Our arborists provide full tree care services including:

• Pruning and tree surgery
• Cabling and bracing
• Pest and disease control and
• Fertilisation and soil conditioning

Our arborists can give you expert advice on how to manage the long-term vitality, health and safety of your trees. Keeping trees healthy is important because a distressed, diseased or dying tree is a dangerous tree. Unhealthy trees can unexpectedly drop limbs, causing property damage and threatening the safety of people and animals on your property. They are also more likely to fail during a storm event or heavy winds. Find out more about our tree services here.

“From start to finish, Dale was incredibly helpful and professional. He came out to quote whilst I was at work as it's hard for me to get away, had a quote to me quickly and was able to begin the work within a week of me confirming. The work was completed as quoted and the site was left clear upon completion of the work. I would have no hesitations in recommending Tree Access to others.”
