Arborist Reports & Tree Inspections

Bass Coast Shire Council Arborist Reports

Tree Needs are tree experts and are qualified to produce Arborist Reports suitable for official council applications and other government business.

We regularly work with customers on their Bass Coast Shire Council development applications and removal of trees permits. Tree Needs has over 15 years professional arboricultural experience right across Australia and also Quote on special or interstate jobs.

Building Application Arborist Tree Reports

We provide highly detailed arborist reports, tree health inspections and tree risk assessments for residential, government and commercial customers. Building planning applications often need to be accompanied by an arborist report if there are trees or vegetation on site.

We are qualified arborists and can assess trees on building development sites and near your home for bushfire prevention clearing or tree pruning permits.

Council Tree Pruning and Removal Permits

In most circumstances you will need a permit from your local council to remove or prune back trees on your property.  Local councils often have strict tree protection laws that mean you will need to get their approval before doing any major work on your trees. We can provide you with an arborist tree report to submit in your local council permit application.

​Cost of an arborist report

The cost of an arborist report will vary depending on a number of factors; the size, location, type of tree along with the type of report that is required will all impact the cost but we are happy to provide you with a quote based on your exact job. If you engage Tree Needs to do the required tree works the cost of the Arborist report will normally be absorbed.

Tree Management Plans

A Tree Needs arborist report also helps with the long-term management and care of your trees. We provide expert advice and practical recommendations about your tree when producing our arborist reports and will help you with the long-term care of your trees.

In partnership with Greening Australia & Landcare Victoria - Tree Needs arborists are helping to install 300 glider nest boxes in Eastern Victoria after the 2019-20 bushfires destroyed nearly 30% of the Greater Glider habitat. The nest boxes act as a substitute for tree hollows that that were damaged in the fires and are an important step to protect the Glider's diminishing population.
