Hamlett’s Tree Service — Tree Service in Hillsborough, NJ

Hillsborough Township is a lot of different neighborhoods stitched together — the older streets off Amwell Road, the big developments around Route 206, the estate lots along Long Hill and Mountain View, and the properties backing up onto the Sourland ridge. What they share is a serious tree inventory: massive oaks, sycamores, and sugar maples on the older lots, plus decades of maturing landscape trees on the newer ones. Hamlett's Tree Service has been quietly working Hillsborough since 1994, mostly by word-of-mouth from one neighbor to the next.

Because Hillsborough is geographically large and topographically mixed, storm damage patterns here are all over the map. A summer thunderstorm can flatten trees on the ridge and leave the flats untouched; a nor'easter can pile ice on the Route 206 corridor while the western hollows stay dry. Joe Hamlett has been reading those patterns in Hillsborough for 30+ years and knows how to route a crew efficiently when the phone starts ringing at 4 a.m.

Day-to-day work in Hillsborough is a steady mix — structural pruning on young trees in the newer subdivisions, corrective work on old oaks that were topped by a previous company, removals of ashes killed by emerald ash borer, and stump grinding for homeowners ready to reclaim a corner of the yard. Because Hamlett's is fully licensed and insured with certified tree service specialists, we work cleanly with Hillsborough Township permitting and any HOAs that require certificates on file.

One owner, one phone number, three decades in the same townships. When Hillsborough neighbors compare notes on tree companies, that consistency is why our name keeps coming up.
