About Us

Marquis Tree Service was founded by John Marquis in 1990. The company started as a lawn-cutting service with a station wagon and two push-style lawnmowers. John didn’t take long to realize that trees were his true passion. While still running the company, John was fortunate to study at the Stockbridge School of Agriculture and the University of Massachusetts, where he earned a two-year degree in Arboriculture and a four-year degree in Urban Forestry. With his degrees and the help and support of his family and staff (some still employed at Marquis Tree Service today), John could transition his business to a full-service tree company.

In 2017, John promoted Dave Happ to Vice President, and together, they have expanded and improved the company tremendously. Marquis Tree is one of the largest tree service companies in the Boston area. In addition to over 75 pieces of highly specialized equipment, Marquis Tree Service employs over 30 full-time field workers, an entire office and support staff, and multiple certified arborists. Customer satisfaction is our number one goal at Marquis Tree Service, and it is not difficult to achieve with the guidance and leadership of John and Dave!
