About Us
Locally Rooted. Professionally Grown. Always Reliable.
At Fitzgerald Tree Service, tree care is more than a business — it’s a family tradition built on integrity, safety, and pride in a job well done. For over 30 years, we’ve provided expert tree services to homeowners, property managers, and contractors across Fairhaven and the South Coast of Massachusetts.
We’re not part of a national chain. We’re your neighbors — and when you hire us, you’re getting a team that’s committed to protecting your property and preserving the beauty of your landscape with the highest level of professionalism.
A Family-Owned Company With Deep Local Roots
Fitzgerald Tree Service was founded on one principle: show up, do the job right, and treat people with respect. That approach has earned us a strong reputation throughout the region — not through flashy advertising, but through word of mouth, referrals, and repeat business.
Owner John Fitzgerald leads every project, large or small, with attention to detail and personal accountability. Whether we’re removing a single tree or clearing an entire lot, we take the same care to ensure your safety, satisfaction, and the health of your property.

Fitzgerald tree took down several trees in my yard. I would highly recommend them. John and the crew were very professional and knowledgeable. I had a tough area with wiring, and another house close by, and they had no problems. The neighbors and I were in awe of the work that they did. Excellent job!
