Wells Tree & Landscape

Wells Trees did an excellent job at our church. Due to septic and other restrictions, work was done without any normal equipment. Climbing trees, trimming and removing a tree was all performed manually. The company communicated quickly and efficiently. Cleanup was thorough. We were incredibly pleased with this company.

Wells Tree and Landscape lives up to and exceeds their incredible reputation in Princeton. They are simply the best. Dave Wells is a wealth of information about everything related to trees and Princeton, and is great to work with, as is the office. I could not be happier with their work and feel lucky to have a second generation expert to rely on to care for the trees in Princeton that keep it so beautiful.

Wells has been so accommodating and kind! I needed a tree stump in order to conduct research for my senior thesis, and they not only were incredibly responsive, but they contacted me when they had what I needed and went so far as to bring it to me on Princeton’s campus. Huge thanks to Loretta, Dave, and AJ for making this happen and allowing me begin my research!

Bob Wells and his son, Dave Wells, of the family business Wells Tree & Landscape, have served me well over the last 30 years. As soon as I moved to Princeton in 1986, a spruce tree fell within inches of my son’s window. Bob Wells came almost immediately, took it down, and later, planted another tree. The same thing happened in 2011 during a surprise October snowstorm; this time a maple tree came within inches of my bedroom window and many branches fell onto the roof, bending the gutters. Bob and crew were there to take the tree down and clean up the debris. Then in 2012 during Hurricane Sandy, unbelievably, a huge pine tree fell onto my roof from the front, cracking the central roof beam and falling over the back, impaling the the back porch roof! Again, my house was a priority for Bob and Dave, and they were there with their crew the very next morning, taking away the parts of the tree that immediately threatened my house (I assume during that dire time, they had to triage the most imperiled houses). They followed that up by cutting down the entire tree, cleaning up the branches, and grinding the stump. A huge job well-done! In addition to attending to emergencies, they have taken routine care of the large trees on my property, trimming branches, etc. Recently, Dave examined my three ash trees and concluded that two had to come down but one could stay up and receive treatment. It was amazing to watch the men use ropes to climb the very large trees and cut them down, piece by piece, with care and precision. Prices for their work have always been reasonable, fair, and well worth it. Over the years, I could always count on Wells Tree & Landscape to be there for me during times of emergency as well as in quieter times.

Larry has been taking care of the many trees on our property for years and I call him the tree whisperer. He knows exactly when to trim each kind of tree and how and I trust him - he’s never steered us wrong. They did some precarious trimming today around our historic home and they did it seemingly with ease! They even cleaned up every petal and leaf when they were done. Prompt, professional, caring and meticulous. Always a pleasure to see Larry and the crew on site!
