Allscape Tree & Turf Services

When a client's yard was left a mess after a winter blizzard, Craig Hillman and his crew cleared it, and Craig also walked her through the town's conservation commission rules before the work began. That kind of hands-on involvement from the owner himself shows up again and again in reviews stretching back to 2008: Allscape Tree & Turf Services is a Kingston-based tree and turf outfit serving the South Shore, and it's Craig Hillman customers say greets them, quotes them, and often works alongside his crew. Their review history runs deep — 52 reviews between 2008 and 2026 across Angi, HomeAdvisor and Google, with the same details recurring. Crews show up with the right equipment for big removals (one HomeAdvisor reviewer had five pines over 70 feet taken down), and cleanup leaves little trace: a 2020 Angi review says the yard was left "cleaned up beautifully," and a 2015 HomeAdvisor review recalls a full day and a half of work followed by a spotless property. Angi's 33 ratings average a perfect 5.0, and HomeAdvisor's 32 ratings average 4.9; Google's smaller pool of 6 ratings averages 4.3, though the two Google reviews on file, from 2024 and 2026, are both five-star. Pricing comes up as fair rather than cheap — several reviewers over the years call the quotes fair, and one 2017 review says Allscape beat a competing estimate from a national tree-care chain. Demand can run ahead of availability, though: a 2019 Angi review describes a months-long wait after a wind storm left the company too backlogged to take new customers, marking them down on responsiveness even while praising the eventual work. Reviews also thin out for several years after 2020, with only one in the past six months, so it's worth asking about current scheduling before locking in a date. Allscape is a strong call for tree removal, pruning, and stump or lawn work where careful cleanup and an owner who's actually on-site matter more than being the first available — just confirm the timeline up front if the job isn't urgent.
