This is our second time using them. We had them remove low hanging branches and branches that were hanging over our house. They were aware of our septic tank and used the right equipment to make sure they didn't hurt it. Friendly and reasonably priced. read more

When I was on vacation, my neighbors contacted me that a very large branch of my tree fell onto her property Kevin Yore, sale manager came out and gave her a quote for the clean up and said the tree was dead and needed to be cut down. When I was home, I had a large tree cut down in my back yard on June 17. They cut a hole in my vinyl fence with the chain saw. I called the main #781-518-8014 and was told to text pictures. I also emailed the pics to eastcoasttree@outlook.com No one was getting back to me. I called Kevin Yore 781-628-8126 and left a message. He left me a massage on June 30 that he wasn't aware of this and would talk to the boss Tom Fitzpatrick and get this taken care of right away. Yet he saw the pics the day before on email. I have left several messages on the phone and through email almost daily for 3.5 weeks and have gotten no response or resolution. Tom FitzPatrick and his company East Coast Tree are a disreputable company. do not hire them!! I wish I could add pictures here. read more

In the fall of 2023, I needed to have a roughly 50FT pine tree cut down and the stump grinded. Like most homeowners, I started researching tree companies and found several and got quotes from them. One quote was $1,500 (East Coast Tree), another was $1,550 and the highest quote was $1,950. Trying to save my family a little bit of money, I chose East Coast tree to save $50. Boy, this was a big mistake I made. From the beginning when the receptionist called me, she initially stated that she "could not remember if she had called me" to let me know when the work was going to be happening. This should have been red flag number 1, and I should have said thanks anyway and moved on to the slightly higher priced estimate, but I gave them the benefit of the doubt since no one is perfect. The work was performed with a grapple truck, which when the operator arrived on the morning of 10/19/2023, I could tell he was put into a situation with a vehicle that was too large. He was the only employee from the company who seems to give a d#mn about trying to protect my yard. He spent about half an hour studying the property, looking at the overhead power lines and access to the property before he tried to back the truck into the driveway. He was very careful and used several sheets of plywood to protect the driveway and the lawn. They did a good job cleaning up the debris and cleaning the driveway as well. However, I was not informed of any of the procedures of East Coast Tree prior to the work being performed. Once they were done cutting down the tree and I paid them in full with a check for the work, the truck operator told me someone would be in touch by Monday about coming to grind the stump. Fast forward to Monday afternoon and I still had not heard anything from them about someone coming to grind the stump, so I called around 4pm when I got off work and spoke with the receptionist. I only told her that I had been informed by the grapple truck operator that someone would be in touch by Monday, and I was following up since I hadn't heard anything. She checked about the stump grinder, but I never heard anything back. This was on Monday, 10/23/2023. The next morning, I left for work right around 7am (I have video of this as well). Around 9:15am that morning, they showed up with the stump grinder and did nothing for about half an hour (I have video evidence of this as well - multiple videos that show the two guys who showed up blocking our driveway with the truck/trailer, leaning against the trailer, pacing on my yard smoking cigarettes, etc.). This was until 9:46am (per the time stamp on the security video) when my wife and son noticed them outside the house. They went out and talked to them 2 minutes prior to unloading the stump grinder from the trailer. After the stump grinder was unloaded, they proceeded to drive it through not only my yard, but also my neighbor's. I have a video of this as well that is time-stamped around 9:48am as well as a second video my wife took with her cell phone from eye level. The best part about this whole thing is that my wife called me and told me they had shown up. I called and spoke with the receptionist, who tried calling the guys at our house with the stump grinder, but she could not reach them. Then she asked me to ask my wife to ask them to move the truck since she needed to get out soon after that. When I got home that night and saw the damage, I lost it. They had driven about 30-40FT through the yard with the stump grinder. This was after we had recently had heavy rain, and the ground was very soft. When I called that night to complain to the receptionist about it and ask what they were going to do to fix it, she said she would have someone reach out to me. Throughout the entire process, not once did East Coast Tree do anything proactive to try to reach out to me. I had to follow up with them multiple times after I had not heard anything in days. They did not even apologize for the damage. They said when I talked with her that the damage was "unavoidable because the ground was wet". I told her this was b$#*hit and that they needed to fix the damage. 90% of the damage that was done to the lawn could have been avoided since the driveway was 100% accessible. Also, since my wife and son were home when they came, she could have easily moved her car if they needed more space to access the tree stump to grind it. The stump itself was less than 6FT away from the edge of the driveway, yet the "geniuses" who showed up to grind it decided to drive the heavy stump grinder 30-40FT through the lawn and crush the lawn. They also did not have any plywood to protect the lawn like the grapple truck that cut the tree down. This whole thing is inexcusable. I made enough noise that I got the attention of the company owner, Mr. Fitzpatrick. He called me while I was at work, and we talked about the damage done by his employees. I asked him for something in writing, which he did not agree to. We did however read more

I would completely avoid this company. They assure you that your property is "fully covered" if any damage occurs but do not take any responsibility if there actually is damage. After 4 months of back and forth that got myself and my neighbor nowhere, they are now just ghosting us. Really poor follow up and accountability. read more

Dropped a tree limb on the power and internet line, disconnecting both, also damaging the front of my historic home. They SPRAY PAINTED to conceal it and left the job without telling me about disconnecting my internet or the damage to my house. Policeman on detail saw all of this and informed me, called the owner. The owner told the policeman he was on vacation and would call me later. Two weeks later, I am still waiting for a call back... read more

My husband and I couldn't be any happier with the amazing work of East Coast Tree Service. From start to finish the company has been responsive, reliable, honest and extremely professional. It was truly amazing to see this project in action. The whole team worked efficiently to provide the exact service we asked for. They made taking down 3 massive oak trees look easy as pie. Don't hesitate, I would highly recommend using this company for any of your tree service needs and we will be returning customers if ever we need their expertise again! Thanks so much to the team at East Coast Tree. read more

Dangerous, careless. Did damage to abutting properties right off the bat. Didn't take responsibility. Were asked to stop the work. Now watching another skilled service do the job right. Will give that company 5 stars but would avoid using this company. read more

A tall pine tree fell in our backyard and was considered dangerous due to the angle of the fall. We called East Coast Tree Service and they came out within a couple of hours and gave us a reasonable estimate that was less than others. Less than 24 hours later, their skilled crew arrived and quickly took the tree down. Clean up was great accept for one branch from another tree that was left dangling. I called the office to ask them to return to take this branch out and they arrived within an hour of my call. Nothing short of amazing customer service! read more

I contacted East Coast Tree Service, and the boss replied me fast in half an hour and came to my house and scheduled me a tree service on the next day. For comparisons, I never get replied from other two companies, which have a good review near Reading, MA. Fast and professional work. I highly recommend them. Technicians are friendly and easy to communicate. The tree service meet our needs. Although the boss can earn more money to cut one tree, he still recommend us not to cut a tree for privacy purpose. We took his advice. The boss gave us some discount for paying cash. I think you also can ask them to give you discount, if you allow them to put a sign in front of your door. That is how we find their information. read more

I had a couple of quotes and they were in line with the others. I felt comfortable with them so hired them and was very impressed with the work they did and especially the cleanup when done. I was tempted to call my lawn care company to show them what a great job looks like read more

East Coast Tree did a fantastic job removing multiple trees from our property. They were not the lowest price but their equipment, friendly crew and reputation were well worth what they charge. We have used them twice now and they have been on time and done a very good job removing some difficult trees. The first job went well over the estimate for time required but they did not charge any additional money. Very reputable and highly recommend. read more

My experience with these guys was a mixed bag. After a heavy thunderstorm they were very responsive in coming to cut down some trees and remove some brush. They even went above and beyond and cleaned our yard more than I expected. The price was competitive. I recommended them to my abutting neighbor who hired them to remove some very large trees. As part of that work they needed to access our property to do the job safely, which was fine. However, they made a complete mess in the area that they were working and made no effort to clean it up. Edit: Owner followed up with personal call to apologize, didn't know about the issue because not on the job. Appreciate that dialogue. read more

Just had these guys out to do some tree work and they were great. Reasonably priced, friendly, respectful of our property, accommodating to requests and most of all they did quality work. Highly recommend them. read more

These guys are awesome! We had a large land clearing job of around 80 trees, stumps and debris to remove. We bid it out to everyone in the area. Kevin and Tommy worked with us and came up with a plan and a very fair price. They finished everything in 2 and half days! From the start, they claimed after the work we wouldn't even know they had been there and they were right. I cannot believe how clean they left the driveway and lawn. They even came back a day later to clean up the street which I didn't even think needed it! The crew was extremely professional and nice and our kids loved watching all of the action. I would 100 percent recommend East Coast Tree, they are honest, fair and very good at what they do! read more

We had a massive Maple tree with a 16 foot diameter base that was compromised after one of the trunks fell after a rain. We noticed many cracks throughout the trunk in the afternoon. I sent out for quotes around 3 pm and East Coast Tree service was on site by 5:15 that day giving us an estimate. They had the dangerous part of the tree, that was hanging over the house, down by 9pm that same night. They came by the next day to take down and remove the rest of the tree and cleaned up all the debris too. Very skilled workers, impressive equipment, fully insured and really nice people too. Fantastic in an emergency. We will call them for any other tree services needed. read more

Had a backyard wedding coming up and needed a large oak tree limbed way up. Tom and crew arrived promptly and completed the job with no impact to the manicured lawn and cleaned up all the mess. Couldn't be happier with the service. Highly recommend them for all tree work services read more

I hired East Coast to remove 5 maple trees in my backyard with stump grind and cleanup. They did an amazing job, and were very professional and clean. It was a tough job as far as access to the trees, but they got every tree out no problem. Would highly recommend hiring East Coast for tree removal. read more

I called 4 different companies for prices to cut down our very large dead ash tree and some branches on a large pine nearby that causes so much mess when it drops it's needles. East Coast Tree was the only one who gave me an estimate with the spider lift which was perfect for my sloped yard and the tree being in the back yard. Their price was less than most of the others as well. They showed great care for my yard bringing the equipment back and forth. The guys did an excellent job and I highly recommend them. They also cleaned up and were very nice. One of the guys gave me a tip on a tree that had some disease in my yard. read more

Tom and his team did a great job removing a few trees and trimming several others. He showed up when he promised and cleaned up after the work was done. I highly recommend East Coast for any tree work. read more

Kevin and his crew came out and were great. They cut down some very large pine trees quickly and with ease. They set up the crane in the driveway and made sure not to damage the driveway. They also used the street to grind up the trees to avoid damaging our front lawn. They also did a great job cleaning up when they were done. Everyone was friendly and answered all our questions throughout the job. I highly recommend East Coast and some of our neighbors have already signed on to use them. read more

Had several trees trimmed and about 12 large trees taken down, plus their stumps ground down. I shopped around for quotes and Tom quoted a the best price and stuck to it. Hard working crews and spot on cleanup. Wife and kids will sleep much better knowing the 90+ft pines looming over the house are gone. I highly recommend East Coast. I know if I need more tree work done, I don't need to shop around next time. Just call Tom. read more

East Coast tree service was great. After calling a few places and getting the run around, Tom got right back to me! He came out, gave an estimate, was out within two weeks after to take the trees and prune back for me. I know I'll be calling on East Coast tree service in the future as I clear away from my property. read more

If anyone is looking to take down some trees in their yard you should contact East Coast Tree. Tom came out to give us an estimate and worked around both my husband and my schedule to complete the project when we could both be home. His crew showed up on time and worked all day. They did a great job clearing a large area of our property so it is useable. Highly recommend this company. read more

We used East Coast about 2 weeks ago to remove 2 massive trees (around telephone wires and overhanging into street, not an easy job), plus they cleaned up another 4+ trees around our property where we had large mature maples needing trimming. They did a fantastic job from start to finish! Tom was so professional and clearly knows what he is doing, when he came to give us an estimate he gave honest input on how to best care for the tree and what would make the most sense for healthy tree growth in the future. He was also very responsive and was on time! Plus his crew cleaned up the property much more than just the debris from their tree work and left the place looking better than started. We really enjoyed working with him and will definitely use his team again if we ever have more tree work to do. read more

The guys from East Coast tree were great. Would recommend them to anyone. Cost effective, efficient, in and out in no time, with spotless cleanup. Watching them operate the crane, lifting a tree over my house was both heart stopping yet exciting at the same time. Stuck to their quote and were honorable, professional and courteous. Don't hesitate to use Eddi and his crew. You won't be disappointed. read more

Tom called me back within a few days of leaving a message and came to look at the work the same day he returned my call. Their schedule opened up, so he scheduled the work within 1 week. They showed up on time, completed all the work proposed and cleaned up everything. The work consisted of some branch removal on a maple tree and some dead cherry tree branch removal. I would certainly use them again. read more
