Quick Answer
How much does tree trimming cost in Somerville, MA?
Tree trimming and pruning in Somerville, Massachusetts typically costs $250–$1,800 per tree. Small ornamental pruning runs $250–$400; standard crown cleaning on a mature Middlesex County shade tree is $500–$1,100; full structural or restoration pruning on large oaks and maples reaches $1,200–$1,800. Pricing depends on tree height, number of branches, climbing vs. bucket-truck access, and proximity to utility lines. ISA-aligned pruning follows ANSI A300 standards and removes no more than 25% of live canopy per year.

Not every tree company in Middlesex County prunes to ANSI A300 standards. Most don't, honestly — topping, flush cuts, and over-thinning are still everyday practice. Pro Evolution was built to be the opposite: structured pruning on Somerville trees that extends their life, strengthens their structure, and leaves them looking like a professional touched them — because one did.
Somerville properties tell a familiar Middlesex County story — Dense urban city where tight-access tree removal requires careful rigging and permit planning. For pruning, that means we bring equipment suited to local conditions: narrow-access grinders for tight gates, bucket trucks where driveways allow, and precision rigging where structures sit close.
Quick note on timing: in Somerville (and most of Middlesex County), best structural-pruning window runs mid-February through early April, when trees are dormant and disease pressure is lowest. We quote year-round, but we'll tell you honestly if waiting a few weeks gets you a better outcome.

Your Somerville Project
What to expect when you hire us.
When you request a tree trimming & pruning quote for your Somerville property, here's what actually happens.
First, a trained estimator calls or emails to schedule an on-site visit. Most Somerville assessments happen within a day or two of your request (same evening for emergencies).
Second, the estimator walks the property, inspects the tree or trees, checks clearances for equipment, and identifies any access or utility-line concerns. You get a written fixed quote before they leave — or in your inbox within hours.
Third, if you approve the quote, we schedule a crew date that works for you and notify utilities if needed. You also receive our Certificate of Insurance.
Fourth, the crew executes the work. Chipper, loader, climbers, rigging — whatever the job calls for. Debris is chipped, logs hauled, and we do a final walk-through with you before invoicing.

Pricing
Tree Trimming & Pruning pricing in Somerville.
Typical Range in Somerville
$250 – $1,800+ per tree
The only way to know your exact price is an on-site visit — and it's free.
Pruning and trimming pricing in Somerville depends on tree size, how many branches are coming off, and whether the work can be done from a bucket truck or requires climbing. Light clearance pruning on a small ornamental tree runs under $300. Full structural pruning on a mature shade tree can reach $1,800 or more.
Bundling multiple trees on the same visit usually saves significantly per-tree, because a large portion of the cost is mobilization and cleanup — fixed no matter how many trees we prune.
Reviews
Reviews from Middlesex County
Recent Massachusetts homeowners on what it's like to work with Pro Evolution.
“A 60-foot maple had split over our garage after a windstorm. Pro Evolution arrived the same evening, tarped the hole, and fully removed it in under a day. Courteous, clean, professional — exactly what you want when you're panicking.”
Maria D.
Shrewsbury, MA
“Three dead oaks that had been stressing us out for two years. They gave us a fixed written quote, showed up on time, and cleaned up so well my wife thought they had re-mulched the bed. Would hire again in a heartbeat.”
James P.
Worcester, MA
“Priced three companies. Pro Evolution wasn't the cheapest — but they were the only ones who walked the property, explained what they'd do, and gave me the insurance docs without asking. Worth every dollar.”
Erin T.

“Storm took down two huge pines blocking my driveway at 10pm Saturday. A crew was there by 7am Sunday morning. Cannot say enough good things. These are the people you want in your phone.”
