We know and love trees, but trees do fail. Various diseases can cause rot to set into the tree base, damaging the structural integrity of the tree and making it hazardous to its surroundings. Other trees may cause damage to adjacent buildings when their tree crowns spread over roofs or when roots begin to invade foundations. Some trees must be removed for the safety of persons and property.
CBL Tree Service takes care of everything from handling permits to removing the tree safely and leaving your property spotless.
For over 12 years, homeowners, investors, and property managers across Peterborough and the Kawarthas have relied on CBL Tree Service for expert tree removal. From tight residential spaces to large-scale commercial sites, we bring the knowledge, equipment, and care each project deserves.
RESIDENTIAL TREE REMOVAL
Removing a tree from your yard isn’t just about cutting it down—it’s about protecting your home, landscaping, and safety. Whether the tree is dying, leaning, or crowding your space, we’ll remove it cleanly and safely without damaging your property.
COMMERCIAL TREE REMOVAL
We work with property managers, real estate investors, and developers to keep properties safe, clear, and visually appealing. Whether you’re preparing land for a build or managing multiple sites, our team delivers efficient, professional results on schedule.
LARGE TREE CRANE REMOVAL
Some trees are simply too large or unsafe to remove without the use of heavy machinery. For these situations, we offer crane-assisted removals that allow us to extract dangerous or oversized trees with precision and control, even in tight or tricky spaces.
There are many reasons to remove a tree, and not all of them are obvious at first glance. A tree that looks healthy could be structurally unsound, while a dying tree can quickly become a safety hazard. We’ll help you assess the situation and make the right call.
Trees that lean over homes, driveways, or power lines pose a serious risk and should be assessed immediately.
High winds, ice, or lightning can leave trees unstable and unpredictable, making safe removal the best option.
Deadwood, decay, or signs of pests like the Emerald Ash Borer can compromise a tree’s structure and should be dealt with promptly.
Invasive roots can damage foundations, sidewalks, and sewer lines. Removing the tree can prevent costly repairs.
At CBL, we treat your property as if it were our own. From the first site visit to the final cleanup, we take pride in delivering safe, professional, and respectful service backed by the training and equipment to do it right.
Owner Joe Corkery personally visits each site, offering honest advice based on over 12 years of experience as a certified arborist.
