Tree Removal and Tree Service in Southborough, MA
West of Framingham along Route 9 and Route 30.
Southborough is just west of Framingham, out Route 9 or Route 30. It is a quiet town with old stone walls, big lots and a lot of mature trees, and we do steady work there through the year.
Old trees and stone walls
Many Southborough properties are lined with stone walls built when the land was farmed, and big maples and oaks grew up along them. Those boundary trees are now huge, often 80 to 100 years old, and they lean out over the lawn on one side and the road or the neighbor on the other. Pruning those trees to take weight off the long limbs, or cabling a split trunk, can keep them standing for many more years.
When one of those trees does need to come down, the stone wall becomes part of the plan. We lower sections with ropes so nothing lands on the wall, and grind stumps carefully to avoid moving the stones.
Reservoir land
The Sudbury Reservoir and the state watershed land around it cover a large part of Southborough. Homes bordering that land often have tall pines and oaks on the property line. Trees on state land are not yours to remove, even if they lean toward your house. If a tree on the other side of the line worries you, we can look at it and tell you who to contact.

Common Questions
- Can you save a big old maple with a split trunk?
- Often, yes. If the wood is sound, cabling and bracing plus a weight-reduction pruning can keep a split maple standing safely. We will look at it and give you an honest answer.
- A tree on the reservoir land is leaning toward my house. What can I do?
- You cannot remove a tree on state land yourself. We can look at it and help you contact the right agency to request an inspection.
