Local conditions
Trees and lots in Berkley
House lots are generous and most back up to woods. White pine and red oak make up the bulk of the canopy, with red maple thick in the swampy ground and eastern red cedar filling in abandoned pasture. On Assonet Neck, exposure off the Taunton River adds wind to the mix. Newer homes built into cleared pockets often leave edge trees standing that grew up sheltered in a stand. Those tall, thin pines and oaks are the ones that snap or uproot in wet snow.
Typical work in Berkley
- Thinning tall edge pines left around newer homes before a storm puts one through the roof.
- Lot clearing and stump removal for additions, garages, barns, pastures and new septic systems.
- Removing dead ash and storm-damaged oaks along field edges, driveways and property lines.
Good to know in Berkley
Wetlands and river frontage are everywhere in town, from the Taunton River to the swamps near Myricks. Cutting close to them may need Conservation Commission review. Trees along the road edge are public shade trees under the tree warden, not the abutter.

Reviews
From customers on the South Shore
The crew was hard working, friendly and efficient. By far the fairest price of anyone on the South Shore.
The tree service provided was exceptional. The team was out a few times to make sure they had the right equipment for the job. I barely knew they were here. Thank you!
Fantastic work. Fast, efficient, added some extra trees to the quote the day of for a reasonable price. All in all, would definitely use them again.
