Old shingled summer houses, a small harbor and big shade trees define Megansett, the northwest corner of Falmouth on Buzzards Bay. Newcomb's Tree Service of Cape Cod travels here from its Mid-Cape base to prune mature trees, remove the ones that have failed and clean up after coastal storms.

Local conditions
Trees and lots in Megansett
Many properties are generations old, and so are the trees. White oak, black oak and beech spread wide over lawns that slope toward Megansett Harbor, with red cedar and pitch pine nearer the shore. Buzzards Bay sends strong southwest wind and salt across the neck, which breaks long limbs and burns foliage on the exposed side. Beech leaf disease is now showing in local beech. Large old trees with heavy, overextended limbs are the main concern, more than crowding or small lot size.
Typical work in Megansett
- Pruning mature oaks to reduce weight on long limbs that reach over roofs, porches and stone driveways.
- Removing declining beech and storm-cracked oaks from established lawns without tearing up the surrounding grounds.
- Clearing wind-thrown cedars and broken tops from shorefront yards after a hard blow off Buzzards Bay.
Good to know in Megansett
Shorefront and harbor-side lots here include coastal banks and salt marsh edges, where the Falmouth Conservation Commission may need to review cutting. Roadside trees along Megansett Road and nearby lanes can be public shade trees, which belong to the tree warden, not the abutter.

Reviews
From customers on Cape Cod
Isaiah and his crew from Newcomb’s Tree Service of Cape Cod were outstanding. After the major storm this winter left me with significant tree damage, they stepped in and handled everything with true professionalism. They arrived right on time, worked efficiently, offered a great price, and left the property spotless.
Very professional staff, they came and gave us a free estimate. We contracted with them. One week later they returned to perform the work. After completing the work they cleaned the areas as if no work had been done. We couldn’t be happier with them.
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.
