DA and CDC Arborist Reports for Builders and Architects
Our local AQF Level 5 Arborists provide DA and CDC arborist reports for builders and architects across The Hills Shire Council area, including Castle Hill, Kellyville, Baulkham Hills and Winston Hills. We support residential and mixed-use developments with Council-compliant arborist documentation.
We work closely with designers, builders and project teams to identify tree constraints early, integrate TPZ and SRZ mapping into architectural drawings, and deliver documentation aligned with AS 4970 Protection of Trees on Development Sites.

Frequently Asked Questions
When should a Level 5 arborist be engaged for a development project?
Engage a Level 5 arborist early, ideally before finalising designs, to avoid DA delays.
Early arborist involvement identifies TPZ and SRZ constraints and approval risks before plans are lodged.
Do you work directly with architects and builders?
Yes. We work directly with design and construction teams and coordinate with architects and builders to integrate arborist constraints into plans.
Are your reports accepted by Hills Shire Council and private certifiers?
Yes. Our Level 5 reports are accepted across NSW. All reports comply with AS 4970 and Hills Shire Tree Management Controls.
Can you provide fast-track reports for tight DA timeframes?
Yes. Fast-track options are available. We prioritise builder and architect projects to meet lodgement deadlines.
