Tree Service & Landscaping in Georgetown, MA

Tree service in Georgetown mixes wooded-lot tree work with a lot of yard care. The town is quiet and green, with residential lots and country roads shaded by tall oak, maple, and pine, Pentucket Pond near the center, the Parker River winding through, and the Georgetown-Rowley State Forest along the edge. Plenty of homes sit close to big trees and the woods behind them.

Along the Georgetown-Rowley State Forest, the trees behind a back fence may belong to the state forest, which the Department of Conservation and Recreation oversees, so check the line before any cutting. On your own side, a big oak or pine near the house calls for careful rigging or a crane, and pruning takes dead limbs off before a storm does; if one comes down anyway, call our 24/7 crew. Georgetown yards often need as much bed and lawn work as tree work, and our landscaping crews handle planting and mulch installation, lawns, and patios.

Georgetown’s water is what usually brings the town into a tree job. Lots near Pentucket Pond, the Parker River, the state forest, or wetlands can fall under the Georgetown Conservation Commission’s buffer, and removals or regrading there may need review first. Trees in the public way are public shade trees under MGL c.87, so taking one down requires the Tree Warden’s approval. The Georgetown Municipal Light Department owns the power lines in town, and they should be the first call for a limb on a wire. A tree well inside a dry yard usually needs no town permit. Check with town hall before scheduling, and our ISA-Certified Arborists can document the tree for any filing.
