Lopez Landscaping & Tree Service LLC

Lopez Landscaping & Tree Service has built an unusually deep written history for a tree company — 175 reviews since 2021 — and despite "Landscaping" in its name, the Lynn-based business markets itself exclusively as a tree service: removal, trimming and pruning, land and lot clearing, crane work, and stump grinding, with certified arborists on staff, serving dozens of towns across Greater Boston and the North Shore. The last six months alone brought 23 reviews, all positive, and the specifics repeat: fast quotes, often same-day, competitive pricing, and crews that leave a property cleaner than they found it. In a July 2026 review, a customer described a crew carefully bringing down four trees and leaving "not even a piece of wood" behind; another described taking down two 100-plus-year-old Norway maples close to a house, calling the crew "absolute experts" at getting them down safely; and several reviews describe difficult, technical jobs — trees tangled in power lines cleared with pulleys and bucket trucks, 80-foot pines climbed by hand, work done by rope and crane. The written history also holds a real cluster of complaints, mostly from 2022 through 2025, almost all about two things: missed appointments and last-minute price changes. In a 2022 review, a customer said the owner took a $200 deposit and never showed or called on the scheduled day; a 2023 review described the owner going silent the night before and morning of an appointment; a 2024 review said the crew demanded more money on arrival than the agreed price; and a 2025 review described a dispute over an extra charge for hauling away wood chips. A separate 2025 review and a 2023 review each describe otherwise good tree work undercut by one unfinished detail — stump grinding not done deep enough in one case, a small area near power lines left untrimmed for months in the other. Given how consistently positive the last several months have been, the recent pattern looks like the company's default experience today — but with a documented history of scheduling and pricing disputes, it's worth getting the price and scope confirmed in writing before the crew arrives.
