Norfolk County · 26.4 miles from our yard

Homeowners in Needham usually call about one of two things: an aging oak or pine too close to the house, or trees in the way of an addition or rebuild. Newcomb's Tree Service drives up from Halifax to handle both, plus pruning and stump grinding.

Local conditions

Trees and lots in Needham

This is a suburb of quarter-acre and half-acre lots carved out of oak and pine woods. Red oak, white oak, white pine and red maple still tower over the houses in Birds Hill and Needham Heights, often taller than the lots are wide. Along the Charles River and around Rosemary Lake the ground is wetter and roots run shallow. Expect oaks weakened by past spongy moth and winter moth defoliation, pines shedding tops in wet snow, and construction damage to roots.

Typical work in Needham

  • Taking down tall oaks and pines beside the house with a crane where the yard is too tight.
  • Clearing selected trees and grinding stumps before a teardown, addition, pool or new driveway goes in.
  • Pruning heavy limbs back from roofs, service drops and play areas with climbers or a bucket truck.

Good to know in Needham

Street trees and trees inside the town right of way belong to Needham and answer to the tree warden. Lots backing onto the Charles River, Cutler Park or Rosemary Lake often include wetland buffer, so check with the Conservation Commission before removing trees near the water.

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.

Two huge, elderly Norway Maples sadly had to be taken down before they came down on their own. They were in front of my home and street adjacent. Not an easy removal. Newcomb’s Tree Service was professional in every aspect and reasonably priced.
