Local conditions
Trees and lots in Rochester
Space is not the problem in this town. Lots run to several acres and many include pasture, woodlot and bog edge. White pine is everywhere, mixed with oak, red maple in the swamps and red cedar along old walls. Around Snipatuit Pond, Mary's Pond and Snows Pond, pines lean over camps and cottages. The soil is sandy and drains quickly, so pines grow tall and fast, then come down in hurricanes. Farm lanes and paddocks often have dead or leaning trees over fences.
Typical work in Rochester
- Clearing overgrown pasture, paddock edges and woodlot for farm use, with stumps ground or removed.
- Removing tall white pines near houses, barns and riding rings before hurricane season.
- Tub or horizontal grinder work to process large piles of brush, logs and stumps on site.
Good to know in Rochester
If your road is a designated scenic road, cutting trees or moving stone walls in the right of way may need a hearing first. Bogs, ponds and the Mattapoisett River bring wetland rules into play. Ask the Conservation Commission early when clearing near water.

Reviews
From customers on the South Shore
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.
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!
