American Climbers, the Hopkinton and Southborough, Massachusetts tree service that has served MetroWest since 1996, has won Gold in the Tree Removal category of the MyFM Quest for the Best 2026. Gold and Silver recipients in the contest are community selected, which means the honor comes from local residents who took the time to vote. American Climbers appears among the MyFM Quest for the Best 2026 Home & Garden winners, and the company serves more than 30 MetroWest towns, including Hopkinton, Southborough, Milford, Upton, Ashland, Holliston, and Natick.

“Tree removal looks simple from the street, but most of the work is planning, like figuring out how a tree will come down, what’s underneath it, and whether the job calls for a crane or can be done with climbers and rigging,” said Rich Yurewicz, founder of American Climbers. “This Gold belongs to our crews, who do that planning on every job, and to every MetroWest homeowner who took the time to vote for us.”

What Goes Into Gold-Winning Tree Removal in MetroWest

Tree removal is the work American Climbers is best known for, and it covers everything from a single tree beside a driveway in Hopkinton, MA 01748, to large and complex removals on tight lots in Southborough, MA 01772, and other nearby towns. Each job starts with a look at the tree, the property, and whatever sits beneath it, so the crew can choose the safest way to take it down.

The company’s tree removal and related services include:

• Climbing and rigging for trees that can be taken down in controlled sections
• Crane-assisted removals for large trees or tight sites where a crane is the right tool for the job
• Hazard tree evaluations that determine whether a tree needs removal, pruning, or monitoring
• Storm damage cleanup and emergency tree service after severe weather brings trees or limbs down
• Stump grinding added to a removal when a homeowner wants the stump gone
• Pruning and trimming for trees that can be saved

Winning the Quest for the Best in the Tree Removal category also reflects work that happens before and after the cutting. Crews clear fallen wood and debris, and the company publishes educational articles that help homeowners recognize warning signs such as dead branches, a worsening lean, or large cavities before a tree fails.

Why MetroWest Homeowners Keep Choosing American Climbers

A Gold ranking chosen by the community says something that an advertisement cannot, because the people voting live in the same towns the crews work in every week. Homeowners in Hopkinton and the surrounding MetroWest area return to American Climbers for several reasons.

• Experience Since 1996: The company has now spent three decades removing, pruning, and caring for trees across MetroWest.
• Honest Guidance: A tree care professional evaluates whether a tree needs to come down or whether pruning or monitoring can reduce the risk, and homeowners hear that answer during the visit.
• Local Recognition: The Gold in the Quest for the Best joins five wins as MetroWest’s Best Tree Service in the Community Choice Awards.
• Wide Local Coverage: Crews work across more than 30 towns, so a homeowner in Ashland, Holliston, or Natick deals with the same company that serves Hopkinton.

“People remember how a company treated them when a tree was hanging over their house,” said Rich Yurewicz, founder of American Climbers. “We try to look at each tree honestly, tell people when pruning or monitoring will do, and when a tree has to come down, make it safe and leave the yard clean. Getting voted Gold by neighbors in the same towns we work in every week tells us that approach is landing.”

Three Decades of Local Tree Care Now Include a Quest for the Best Gold

American Climbers has served MetroWest from its Hopkinton and Southborough base since 1996, and its crews continue to take on removals ranging from a single backyard tree to large jobs that call for a crane. The Quest for the Best Gold adds to a record that includes five wins as MetroWest’s Best Tree Service in the Community Choice Awards, and it reflects the trust that homeowners have placed in the company over 30 years.
