Our Work in
Natick
A run that puts us in Natick usually looks like this: a dead white pine leaning toward a house off Speen Street near the lake, a pair of storm-cracked oaks on a wooded lot in South Natick inside the Charles River buffer, deadwood pruning on a heritage maple near Natick Common, and a Conservation Commission-permitted removal of a silver maple near Broadmoor. We bundle Natick jobs with our Framingham and Wayland work so the trip from Billerica makes sense for everybody.

Permits
Natick, MA does not require a permit for routine tree removal on your own private property. Two big exceptions: trees within 100 feet of a wetland, the Charles River, or Lake Cochituate require Conservation Commission review under the Wetlands Protection Act (MGL Chapter 131, Section 40), and public shade trees in the town right-of-way require Tree Warden approval and a public hearing under MGL Chapter 87. The South Natick Historic District has additional protections for trees that contribute to the district's character. We tell you exactly what applies at the estimate — call (978) 375-2272.
Permit rules change. Confirm with your municipality. We can help — call (978) 375-2272.

Questions & Answers
How much does lot clearing cost?
Lot clearing costs depend on acreage, tree density, and what you need done. A small residential lot (quarter acre) with brush and small trees typically runs $1,500-$4,000. Larger lots with mature trees are $5,000-$15,000+. We give free estimates after walking the site.
What does lot clearing include?
We remove all trees marked for removal, grind every stump below grade if you're building, chip and haul all the brush, and leave you with clean, workable ground. Whether you're putting in a foundation, a driveway, or an open yard, everything from first cut to final rake is included in the quote.
Can you selectively clear, keeping some trees?
That's actually most of our lot clearing jobs. Most homeowners want to keep a few oaks or maples for shade and character. We walk the lot with you, flag what stays with ribbon, and everything else comes out. We take the same care around trees you're keeping as we do around your house — no driving over the root flare, no nicking the bark.
What happens to the trees, cordwood, and saleable hardwood?
Brush and small material get chipped on-site — you can keep the chips for mulch or we haul them away. Cordwood you want stays on the property. For large oak, maple, or cherry, ask before we chip it — sometimes the standing tree is worth more at a local mill than as wood chips. That decision is yours, and we tell you before the saw starts.
