​A R B O R L I Z  offers landscape design and arboricultural advice (AQF Level 5) across the Sydney region, with a focus on practical, sustainable outcomes for both landscapes and trees.

 

Our landscape design process typically begins with an initial consultation and concept plan. Depending on your needs, we can also provide planting plans, detailed design drawings and specifications for implementation. 
 

Our arboricultural services include pre-development assessments, arboricultural impact assessments (AIA), tree protection plans and specifications, tree health assessments and tree risk assessments.

For developments, we follow the Australian Standard AS 4970-2025 - Protection of trees on development sites. This ensures trees are assessed and monitored from the planning stage through to the implementation of a development. Ideally, contact us soon after your site survey and before starting any plans. Early involvement allows us to provide sound advice, streamline the process and find practical solutions to any arboricultural challenges.
