Named for the tidal river that divides Yarmouth from Dennis, Bass River is a village of old captains' houses, riverfront lawns and beach-side cottages. Newcomb's Tree Service of Cape Cod is based a few miles west and handles removals, pruning, stumps and storm calls here.

Local conditions
Trees and lots in Bass River
Old Main Street and the lanes off it hold the older trees: big maples, oaks, lindens and horse chestnuts over antique homes and picket fences. Along Pleasant Street and River Street, yards slope to docks and marsh, and cedar, oak and pine stand on the bank. South toward the Sound the lots shrink, the soil turns to pure sand, and pitch pine takes over. Wind runs up the river from the south in every big storm. Old trees with decay and exposed bank trees fail first.
Typical work in Bass River
- Pruning and weight reduction on aged shade trees along the historic streets near the river.
- Careful removal of bank-side trees that threaten a dock, boathouse or the slope itself.
- Taking down tall pines between cottages and seasonal rentals near South Shore Drive.
Good to know in Bass River
The river's banks, marshes and flood zone bring Conservation Commission review for much waterfront cutting. The older village streets are narrow and partly within a historic district, and street trees there belong to the tree warden. Summer traffic near the beach is heavy, so plan routine work for the off-season.

Reviews
From customers on Cape Cod
They arrived on time and were extremely professional and efficient. They are so knowledgeable and went above and beyond for me, taking 3 very tall trees down easily and efficiently. Extremely reasonable rates. Local family business which I love.
We had 8 trees we wanted taken down. From the initial quote visit all the way to the final tree coming down the process was made simple and pleasant. The crew was courteous, caring about our property, and very professional.
The crew arrived promptly at 8 am. Tree and large limb on another tree were removed, yard was cleaned as if the removal never happened, and they were gone by 10 am. Great job.
