Arborist Reporting & Consulting in the Greater Toronto Area
An arborist report is only as good as the expertise behind it. Our certified arborists assess trees with precision, document findings thoroughly, and deliver reports that meet municipal, legal, and insurance standards. We serve homeowners, developers, lawyers, and property managers across Toronto, Mississauga, Brampton, Markham, Richmond Hill, Vaughan, and Oakville.
SERVICES WE OFFER
From single-tree assessments to full site reports for development projects – Tree Doctors has you covered.
Tree Removal
Dead, diseased, or dangerously leaning trees don't get safer with time. We remove trees of all sizes quickly and safely, with minimal impact to your property and full permit handling included.
Tree Trimming and Pruning
Healthy trees start with proper pruning. Our arborists remove dead or overgrown branches to improve structure, promote growth, and reduce the risk of branch failure – keeping your trees looking great and your property safer.
Emergency Storm & Tree Removal Services
Storms don't follow a schedule – and neither do we. Our dedicated emergency team is available 24/7 to respond to fallen trees, downed limbs, and post-storm hazards. Fast response. Safe removal. Peace of mind restored.
Stump Grinding & Removal
A leftover stump is more than an eyesore – it's a tripping hazard and an obstacle for your next landscaping project. We grind stumps down to below grade so your yard is clean, safe, and ready for what's next.
Commercial Property Tree Services
From office parks to retail properties, we provide comprehensive tree care programs for commercial clients. Scheduled maintenance, risk management, emergency response – customized to your property's needs and your business's timeline.
Tree Risk Assessments
A formal risk assessment identifies structural defects, root issues, and site hazards – and assigns a risk rating based on ISA methodology. Essential for insurance purposes, property transactions, and liability management.
Certified Arborists You Can Trust
An arborist report submitted for a permit, a court proceeding, or an insurance claim needs to be credible, thorough, and defensible. A report from an unqualified source can delay your project, be rejected outright, or create liability exposure.
At Tree Doctors, our ISA-certified, OCT-trained arborists have over a decade of experience producing reports that meet the standards set by the City of Toronto, Conservation Authorities, and insurance providers across the GTA.
We know what municipalities look for, what insurers require, and how to document findings in a way that holds up under scrutiny. Every report is backed by $5,000,000 in liability insurance and signed by a credentialed professional. When the stakes are high, that matters.
Our Arborist Reporting Process
We've refined our process to make securing your arborist report as smooth and efficient as possible.
Step 1 – Free On-Site Assessment
One of our certified arborists visits your property and conducts a thorough inspection – evaluating tree health, structure, root condition, and any site-specific factors relevant to your report's purpose.
Step 2 – Transparent Quote
You receive a clear, itemized quote with no hidden fees. We'll also beat any written quote from a licensed tree service company in the GTA.
Step 3 – Report Preparation
We prepare a detailed written report that meets the applicable standards – whether for a City of Toronto permit, a conservation authority submission, an insurance claim, or a legal proceeding. Findings are documented clearly, with supporting photos and professional recommendations.
Step 4 – Delivery & Follow-Up
You receive your completed report promptly. If questions come up – from your lawyer, insurer, or the municipality – we're available to clarify findings and provide supporting documentation as needed.

When Do You Need an Arborist Report?
Arborist reports are required or strongly recommended in more situations than most property owners realize. Here are the most common ones.
Applying for a tree removal permit. The City of Toronto and most GTA municipalities require a report from a certified arborist to approve the removal of trees above a certain size. Without one, your application won't move forward.
Submitting a development or building permit application. Construction near trees often triggers a Tree Protection Plan requirement. A certified arborist report is typically a mandatory part of the submission package.
Filing an insurance claim after storm damage. Insurers frequently require professional documentation of storm-related tree damage before approving a claim. Our reports provide the evidence your insurer needs.
Managing a property dispute involving trees. Boundary trees, encroaching roots, and disputed liability after tree damage are common sources of conflict. A certified arborist report provides an objective, professional assessment that can support legal proceedings or negotiation.
Buying or selling a property. Mature trees are a significant asset – and a potential liability. A pre-purchase arborist assessment gives buyers and sellers a clear picture of tree health, risk, and any required remediation.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is an arborist report?
An arborist report is a written assessment prepared by a certified arborist that documents the condition, health, and risk level of one or more trees. Reports are used to support permit applications, insurance claims, legal proceedings, and property transactions.
How long does it take to receive a report?
After the on-site assessment, most reports are completed within a few business days. Timelines may vary for larger sites or complex submissions requiring additional documentation.
Does the City of Toronto accept your reports for permit applications?
Yes. Our reports are prepared by ISA-certified arborists and meet the requirements set by the City of Toronto and most GTA municipalities for tree permit submissions.
Can an arborist report help with an insurance claim?
Yes. Insurers typically require professional documentation of tree-related damage before approving a claim. Our reports provide clear, photo-supported assessments that give adjusters what they need to process your claim efficiently.
What's the difference between an arborist report and a tree risk assessment?
An arborist report covers tree health, condition, and general recommendations. A tree risk assessment is more specific – it evaluates structural defects and assigns a formal risk rating based on ISA methodology. Both are available from Tree Doctors, and in many cases a single site visit covers both.
Do you provide reports for legal or court proceedings?
Yes. Our arborists can prepare reports suitable for use in property disputes, litigation, and insurance arbitration. We're also available to provide expert testimony if required.
