Tree Pruning & Trimming in Jamaica

Expert Tree Pruning & Trimming in Jamaica Plain

At Greenstar Tree, we provide professional tree pruning and trimming across Jamaica Plain and Suffolk County — keeping your trees healthy, safe, and looking their best. Pruning is more than cutting back branches: done right, it improves the health and structure of the tree, brings more light into your yard, removes hazards before they cause damage, and keeps your property looking its best. Done wrong, it can harm the tree for years.


With 23 years of experience and state-of-the-art equipment, our team prunes and trims trees of every size — including tall trees in tight, hard-to-access spots that other companies can’t reach. We also sterilize our tools between jobs to protect your trees from disease, and we always take the time to explain the work and offer advice on how to care for your trees going forward.

The Benefits of Professional Tree Pruning & Trimming


Proper pruning does more than tidy up your trees. Here’s what it does for your property:


Keeps Your Trees Healthy – Removing dead and diseased limbs stops problems from spreading and helps the tree grow stronger.


Prevents Falling Branches – Weak, overgrown limbs are a hazard, especially in storms. Pruning them removes the risk before they fall.


Protects Your Home – Cutting branches back from your roof, siding, and power lines prevents damage and keeps them from rubbing or falling on your property.


Brings in More Light – Thinning the canopy lets more sunlight into your yard, deck, and garden — just like our customers have seen firsthand.


Improves the Tree’s Shape – Regular pruning keeps your trees balanced and attractive instead of overgrown and lopsided.


Encourages Healthy Growth – Pruning at the right spots guides the tree to grow the way it should, strong and well-structured.


Boosts Your Property’s Look – Well-kept trees make your whole property look cared for and lift its curb appeal.

What Does Tree Pruning Cost in Jamaica Plain?

Tree pruning costs vary based on the size and number of trees, how much needs to be cut back, the height of the branches, and how easily our equipment can reach them. A single small tree is a quick job, while several large trees with high, overgrown limbs takes more time and equipment.


That’s why we provide free, no-obligation on-site estimates with affordable, competitive pricing — rather than a rough number over the phone. We’ll come out, look at your trees, and give you a clear quote that covers the full job: pruning, debris cleanup, and site tidy-up.


Most pruning jobs are completed efficiently, and we always leave your property clean, tidy, and looking its best.

Tree Removal

“I have used Ben and his team for two projects: 1. a major tree removal off Boylston St. and 2. significant pruning of Maple trees over my house and over my neighbors houses. I found Ben and his team to be very professional and I like knowing I am supporting a local JP area business. Ben is very open and honest and provides options when issues arise. Overall, I found Greenstar Tree and Ben to be very knowledgeable about their craft, friendly and open and value driven. I thought they did a great job!”

Erick K.

Pruning & Trimming

“Ben and Will went above and beyond what I expected! Living in south boston i thought it was gonna be impossible to prune the tree in the back of my property due to the closed in nature of my house. It was amazing to see what they could do and how they managed to accomplish so much within such a confined area. I would give Greenstar tree 10 stars if possible and will be recommending them to all my neighbors here in southie! Thanks again Ben!”

Jeffrey F.

Cabling & Bracing

“Ben and Noah did amazing work at a fair price. I had multiple very tall trees in hard-to-access locations and on top of power lines that they trimmed back from my roof and siding. They were kind and professional and made sure to explain the work they would do and any advice on how to handle each of the trees in the future. I highly recommend and will be using Greenstar’s services moving forward.”

Nick M.

Tree Removal

“I had a great experience with Green Star Tree out of Jamaica Plain. Ben was able to schedule me almost immediately after our initial conversation for a tree that had fallen in my driveway onto two vehicles.
He was professional, efficient, and very reasonably priced. Ben went above and beyond, and Will was also fantastic—kind, helpful, and just as dedicated to getting the job done right.
They did an excellent job, and I will definitely be hiring them again for future work. I highly recommend their services to anyone in need of reliable tree work.

Deniqua L.

Pruning & Trimming

“I love working with Ben because he is super easy to deal with, wicked honest, and just an all around happy guy. He’s the most experienced tree guy I have ever met who is still working hard out there and I’ve been in the landscaping and tree industry for twenty six years myself !”

Andrew B.

Cabling & Bracing

“Ben and Bertram did a wonderful job for us. The hard to reach branches of our oak were expertly pruned and our very large dead cherry was removed. All the wood was hauled away and they left our yard in grade a condition. Also, Ben took the time to explain why he pruned in the manner he did. His expertise was very helpful throughout.”

Makeit G.

Pruning & Trimming

“Greenstar tree did an excellent job pruning several trees in my yard including my beloved red bud. Ben and his crew are incredibly hard working. They took great care to protect my perennial garden and offered excellent advice on what should be pruned, removed, and maintained. We are very pleased.”

Kate C.

Cabling & Bracing

Five Stars! The Greenstar team offers high-quality, highly responsive, expert and professional services. We have towering hemlocks in our backyard and love how they make our yard feel like a secret garden. Ben was highly knowledgeable and took great care to balance the need to prune for vigorous health and preserve tree cover in the canopy. He also expertly tackled some other trees that have grown sideways over the years. Ben is a true pro! We felt our trees were in great hands and highly recommend Greenstar.
