Tree installation involves more than supplying a tree to the property. The proposal should address how it reaches its location, what installation work is included and how it will be cared for afterward.

Confirm the route and working area
Review the delivery route, proposed planting locations and access restrictions with the team. Identify surfaces or retained features that may need protection and the restoration expected afterward. Ask the contractor to confirm the method for the actual tree sizes and equipment rather than relying on a general allowance.
Specify what will be supplied and installed
Keep the agreed names, sizes, quantities and locations in the project documents. Ask how the plant material is checked and how an unavailable item would be replaced. The proposal should identify the included preparation and finishing. Clear specifications help align the design intent with the material that arrives.

Create an establishment record
Obtain care instructions and identify the person responsible for watering and observing the planting. Confirm the written warranty terms and the process for reporting a concern. Record the installed schedule, photographs and any outstanding items. This gives the household a useful starting point for caring for the new garden.
Prepare for the next project discussion
Before the next review, identify the areas to plant, the views you want to improve and the level of care the household can arrange. Ask for a clear planting schedule and a written distinction between supply, installation, establishment care and any recurring maintenance. Record unresolved site questions before ordering.

Frequently asked questions
Should access protection appear in the tree-installation quote?
Yes, where relevant. Confirm the affected areas and the protection or restoration included.
Can a tree be substituted without review?
Agree on an approval process so the substitute is assessed for the design and site before installation.
What should happen after the installer leaves?
The agreed care plan should identify responsibilities, instructions and the process for raising questions or concerns.
