Wilder's Tree Service

Wilder's Tree Service is a family-owned, owner-operated tree care company based in Kingston, NH, serving southern New Hampshire and the Massachusetts North Shore. Founded in 2018 and named after the owners' son Jack Wilder, the company offers pruning, cabling and bracing, tree and branch removal, stump grinding, storm and emergency cleanup, and firewood, and its team includes an ISA Certified Arborist. Homeowners who have hired the crew describe consistently strong, hands-on work. Recent reviews from spring and summer 2026 describe large and hazardous trees removed safely and efficiently, oaks and pines taken down near houses, power lines and driveways, with the crew, often led by James, praised for showing up on schedule, working through difficult conditions, and leaving properties cleaner than they found them. Several reviewers specifically call out clear communication throughout the job, from an initial quote through text updates during the work, and describe pricing as fair, reasonable, or lower than competing estimates. That pattern holds across a large and recent body of work: 43 reviews in the last six months alone carry no negative feedback, and the company's Google listing shows 210 ratings at 5 stars. Angi and HomeAdvisor separately show 4.7 stars from 15 reviews each, though those two listings are identical mirrors of each other, right down to a stray discrepancy claiming '9 years of experience' in one spot and 'over 3 years' in another, and HomeAdvisor's own FAQ says the company doesn't offer emergency services even though Wilder's own website lists emergency tree work as a service. Given how consistently positive and detailed the track record is, Wilder's looks like a strong choice for anything from routine pruning to a large, risky removal near a house or power line; it's still worth confirming current insurance paperwork and getting a written estimate before the job starts, as with any contractor.
