Roslindale is a hilly Boston neighborhood where the Arnold Arboretum sets the tone and mature trees crowd modest house lots. Newcomb's Tree Service makes the trip from Halifax for removals, pruning, stump grinding and crane work on tight sites.

Local conditions
Trees and lots in Roslindale
Steep streets on Metropolitan Hill and around Peters Hill mean many yards are terraced, with retaining walls and stairs between the truck and the tree. Red oak, Norway maple and white pine are the big ones, often older than the houses beside them. Ledge sits close to the surface in places, which keeps roots shallow. Toward Stony Brook Reservation the lots back onto real woods, and dead oaks and beeches along that edge lean toward the homes.
Typical work in Roslindale
- Rigging down large oaks piece by piece where slopes and walls keep equipment out of the yard.
- Removing dead trees along a wooded back line before they fall toward the house or garage.
- Grinding stumps in small fenced yards using the compact grinder that passes through a gate.
Good to know in Roslindale
Trees in the sidewalk or planting strip are public, and the city decides on those. On private lots, plan for narrow one-way streets, on-street parking and overhead wires. Properties bordering the Arboretum or Stony Brook Reservation should confirm the lot line before any cutting starts.

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!
