Our Boston work is mostly in the southern neighborhoods, the ones closest to the South Shore, where yards are small and trees are large. Newcomb's Tree Service comes up from Halifax with climbers, bucket trucks and our own cranes.

Local conditions
Trees and lots in Boston
Hyde Park, Mattapan and Readville have wood-frame houses on narrow lots, with Norway maple, oak, locust and cherry rooted along the fence lines. Jamaica Plain mixes dense streets with older properties carrying big beeches and oaks. The Neponset River and Mother Brook add low, damp ground. Across all of it the story is similar: compacted soil, paved-over roots, old topping cuts and no open space to fell a tree. Nearly everything comes down in pieces.
Typical work in Boston
- Crane-assisted removals in fenced backyards where the only way out is up and over.
- Pruning for clearance from roofs, wires and neighboring properties on tightly spaced residential streets.
- Emergency response when a tree or large limb comes down on a house, car or driveway.
Good to know in Boston
The city owns trees in sidewalks and public ways, and Boston Parks and Recreation manages them. Private tree work may still need street space for equipment, so plan for parking on your block. Lots along the Neponset River can fall under Conservation Commission review.

From customers on the South Shore
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.
Excellent! I highly recommend Newcombs. The crew is awesome. Efficient, friendly, accommodating. Our experience was 5+ stars.
I had a great experience with Paul and his crew! I had twelve very large pine trees taken down in the front of my house. They were able to complete the job within a day, everything completed and cleaned up. Excellent work.
