Tree Pruning
in Andover, MA
Expert tree pruning, trimming, and canopy management. Serving Andover and the Merrimack Valley.
What We Do
Good pruning is invisible. When we're done, your tree should look like it grew that way — healthier, better structured, and not threatening to put a branch through your window during the next storm.
Andover's mature trees need regular attention. Andover's got stately homes, historic properties, and serious trees. The neighborhoods around Phillips Academy and Indian Ridge have some of the biggest trees in the Merrimack Valley. We treat them with respect — and take them down safely when it's time. We follow ISA standards for every cut, because bad pruning does more harm than good.
We do crown thinning, dead wood removal, crown reduction, clearance pruning, and structural work on young trees. If you're not sure what your tree needs, we'll tell you — for free.
We serve all Andover neighborhoods including Andover Center, Shawsheen Village, Ballardvale, West Andover and surrounding areas.

Our Work in
Andover
Andover work runs the full range. This season we've pruned heritage trees on a Phillips Academy-adjacent property, removed three dead ash trees in Shawsheen Village, done storm cleanup along the Shawsheen River in Ballardvale, and cleared a driveway-blocking oak on a West Andover estate. Indian Ridge keeps us busy with regular maintenance — those big lots with big trees need consistent attention.
What It
Costs
$200 - $1,500 — typical range for tree pruning in Andover.
Pruning costs less than removal, and it's the best investment you can make in your trees. A few hundred dollars in pruning today can prevent a few thousand dollars in removal or property damage later.
A single tree with a few dead limbs? That's on the lower end. A full canopy thinning and crown reduction on a large oak? Higher end. The price depends on size, number of trees, height, and how much work needs to be done.
We give free estimates on-site. We'll walk your property, look at every tree, and tell you exactly what we recommend and what it'll cost. No pressure, no upsell.

What tree species are common in Andover?
Red oaks and white oaks dominate, with beautiful sugar maples along the older streets. White pines are common in West Andover and near Harold Parker State Forest. Some impressive old elms survive in Shawsheen Village. Ash trees have been declining across town.

Tree pruning typically ranges from $200-$1,500 depending on the size of the tree, number of trees, and the scope of work. A single tree with a few dead limbs is on the lower end. A full canopy thinning on a large oak is on the higher end. We provide free estimates.
