Tree Surgeon Peterborough — Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need permission to cut down a tree?
It depends. If your tree is subject to a Tree Preservation Order (TPO) or is within a Conservation Area, you need consent from your local council before carrying out any works. We check TPO status for every job and handle applications on your behalf where required.
What qualifications do your tree surgeons hold?
All our arborists hold NPTC/Lantra qualifications (City & Guilds Level 3 in Arboriculture) and are trained in aerial rigging, chainsaw use, and first aid. We carry £5 million public liability insurance on every job.
How much does tree surgery cost?
Costs vary significantly depending on the size of the tree, access, and the work required. A small crown reduction might start from £150; a large tree felling in a confined space could be £800+. We always provide a free, written quote before any work begins.
Can you remove the wood and arisings?
Yes. All arisings (branches, logs, and chippings) are removed from site as standard unless you'd like to keep the logs or chippings — just let us know when we quote.
Do you work on trees with TPOs?
Yes. We submit TPO applications and Conservation Area notifications to the relevant local planning authority on your behalf. Most applications are decided within 8 weeks, though emergency works can sometimes be approved faster.
