Somerset runs along the west bank of the Taunton River, a town of compact neighborhoods, river views and steady wind off Mount Hope Bay. Newcomb's Tree Service travels from Halifax for removals, crane jobs, trimming and stump grinding.

Local conditions
Trees and lots in Somerset
Most yards here are suburban in size, with Norway maple, red maple, oak and the occasional big American beech or black locust along the lot lines. Trees near the Taunton River and Lee River get salt spray and strong southwest wind, which thins crowns and dries out one side. Somerset Village has the oldest plantings and the tightest spacing. Inland from the river, lots open up and oak and white pine woods sit behind the houses.
Typical work in Somerset
- Removing declining maples wedged between houses, fences and overhead service drops on small lots.
- Reducing wind-exposed limbs on waterfront trees so they stop tearing out in bay storms.
- Grinding stumps with the compact machine that fits through a standard backyard gate.
Good to know in Somerset
Public shade trees along town streets are the tree warden's call. Waterfront lots on the Taunton River, Lee River and around Brayton Point may sit in coastal or wetland buffer zones, so confirm with the Conservation Commission before removing trees near the shore.

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.
