We’ll visit your property in Peterborough or the Kawartha Lakes area and assess your trees for a range of services. We’ll provide a clear recommendation and estimate so you won’t have any surprises on the day of service.
Tree Pruning and Care
Keeping your private property safe and healthy may require regular inspections, branch pruning, and related care. Regular pruning and care can improve aesthetic value and reduce the likelihood of property damage.
Tree Risk Assessment
Unsure of the integrity of dead trees or overhanging branches? Having a professional arborist evaluate your property is critical. We’ll provide you with the right information for determining your next steps.
Professional Tree Care Services and Removal
Old growth that’s unhealthy, dead, or obstructing your activities require special expertise and equipment. We can handle dangerous and emergency tree removals, or provide a maintenance plan depending on severity.
Emergency Services
If you notice an issue that might cause damage sooner rather than later, it’s best to contact us immediately for an emergency consultation and care or removal as needed.
Tree Cabling and Bracing
Sometimes a little support is all that’s needed rather than pruning or removal. Our cabling and bracing services can secure your landscape when this is the case.
Stump Grinding
Tree stumps are tough to remove, and sometimes the only way is to grind them down where they sit. Contact us right away if you’ve got a problem with an unsightly stump on your lawn.
Pricing: How Much Do Our Tree Services Cost?
Tree surgeon services almost always require a custom estimate based on the time, staff, and equipment required. Because of this, Armour Hill offers free estimates to all customers.
Give us a call if you’re concerned, and we’ll use our expertise to evaluate your needs and make recommendations at no cost to you.
Why is a Custom Estimate Necessary?
An arborist’s work is more nuanced business than you might think.
You may look at an unhealthy tree and think it requires expensive removal, but an expert eye may discover that it only needs some professional care or cabling to obtain optimal health.

Does tree removal require a permit in Peterborough?
We take care of the entire permit process for our clients, but you should still be aware of the following information:
In Peterborough a permit is required to remove any trees over 7.5cm in diameter. There is a $65 permit fee if the tree is healthy and a $15 fee if the tree is hazardous or dead.
There are also replanting requirements if you wish to remove healthy trees.
How much does tree removal cost?
There’s not an easy answer to that. You see, it depends on how much work needs to be done and where the tree is located. The price will depend on each specific case.
What are the benefits of cabling and bracing for trees?
Cabling and bracing can help trees with structural defects. They support weak or damaged branches and areas to improve overall health.
Cables are installed high up in the canopy, usually above where you will see them. Bracing is also used where large cracks are present in the trunk. Cabling and bracing helps increase lifespan and decrease the likelihood of falling branches.
Why do I need a risk assessment for my trees?
A risk assessment is essential to determine which services your property may require. When assessing risks, we consider the age and species of tree, potential at-risk structures nearby, and other elements such as closeness to power lines.
