Thirteen villages make up Newton, and nearly all of them share the same challenge: very large trees on lots with very little open space. Newcomb's Tree Service brings climbers, bucket trucks and its own cranes up from Halifax for removals and pruning here.

Local conditions
Trees and lots in Newton
Red oak and white oak are the signature trees of Waban, Newton Centre and Chestnut Hill, many of them older than the houses beneath them. Norway maples line streets in Newtonville, Nonantum and Auburndale, and they are reaching the age where trunks hollow and large limbs drop. Lots near Crystal Lake and the Charles River have wetter soil. Add beech leaf disease, old storm wounds and decades of root cutting for driveways and utilities, and many mature trees need a close look.
Typical work in Newton
- Crane removal of oversized oaks standing over houses, garages and neighboring yards with no drop zone.
- Structural pruning and deadwood removal on mature shade trees worth keeping for another generation.
- Taking down hollow Norway maples in pieces where sidewalks, wires and parked cars sit underneath.
Good to know in Newton
Newton regulates removal of larger trees on private property, so check with the city's forestry staff about permit requirements before scheduling. Trees in the berm between sidewalk and street are city trees. Work near Crystal Lake, Hammond Pond or the Charles River may also involve the Conservation Commission.

From customers 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.
Excellent! I highly recommend Newcombs. The crew is awesome. Efficient, friendly, accommodating. Our experience was 5+ stars.
