Tree Service in Westford, MA: Removal & Pruning

We cover all of Westford, from the older homes around Westford Center to the wooded lots in Nabnasset and Graniteville. Removal, pruning, stump grinding, lot clearing, storm cleanup. You call, we come look, and you get a flat written price for free. Most Westford removals run $500 to $3,000 depending on the tree and how hard it is to reach.

What grows in Westford

Westford is one of the more heavily treed towns we work, and the species mix shows it:

• White pine everywhere, tall and brittle. Read why white pines fail if you have one near the house.
• Oak and maple on the older lots near the Town Common. Our oak care guide covers keeping the healthy ones healthy.
• Wet-ground trees near Stony Brook and Nashoba Brook that rot at the base.

Not sure what you are looking at? Our guide to the most common trees in Massachusetts will help you name it, and the tree species guide goes deeper.

Permits near the brooks

Trees on your own land are generally your call. The two to check in Westford: roadside trees in the public right-of-way, which are protected under Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 87, and anything close to Stony Brook or Nashoba Brook, where the state Wetlands Protection Act buffers apply. We will tell you which calls to make before we cut. The wetland buffer guide explains the state rules.

When you do not need us

If a tree is alive and sound and just looks a little wild, that is a pruning job, not a removal, and sometimes it is not even that. We have walked away from Westford yards telling people their tree was fine and to call us in five years. That honesty is the whole business. We would rather prune your tree twice a decade than remove it once and never hear from you again.
