"Workhorse sent a crew of 4 to take down a medium sized, multi-trunk tree. They were finished in an hour and cleaned up afterwards. I was very pleased and recommend them highly. They are a handyman service so I'll be in contact with them about some future projects I have."

Customers say: Quick response

"Adam's Tree Service did an amazing job with the five (5) trees I wanted taken down, taken away, and grinding down the stumps!! Had two other companies (referred by someone) come by and one agreed to a price, but never showed back up. After that, I looked up a tree service and Adam's Tree Service popped up. I called, and Adam's Tree Service was able to come by my property that day and we agreed on a price. The price was so reasonable for what I was asking. He told me that it could take his crew about 3 weeks before getting started but would call me to let me know when they will start (this is vacation property). Because of the price I was quoted, I worried that it would be another no show. Well, after only two weeks, I received a phone call to let me know that they would be at the property. When I returned to the property, all the work was done, and I was very satisfied!! I spoke with my neighbors who told me that she had never seen a tree service crew work as well as this crew worked. She said that she had spoken with them and they were very polite and worked hard. If I have any other trees to be removed, I will be calling Adam's Tree Service!!!! Also, I would highly recommend their services to everyone!!!!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

In most cases, you should not use a pruning seal on trees after trimming. Applying a sealant can interfere with the tree's natural healing process, and it does not guarantee protection from pathogens. Instead of sealing the cut, the best practice is to support the tree's natural recovery by providing it with plenty of water and a dormant-style fertilizer. However, there are exceptions. Pruning seals may be recommended for very vulnerable species, like elm trees, in areas where dangerous diseases such as Dutch elm disease are prevalent. In these specific situations, the protection offered by a sealant can outweigh its downsides. For advice tailored to your situation, especially after cutting large branches, it is best to consult a local tree trimming professional.

You can never truly stop a maple tree from growing taller, but you can rein in its growth by pruning. Proper pruning helps maintain a safe size for your tree without causing permanent damage. It’s important to start pruning a tree while it’s young, long before it becomes a problem. Otherwise, you may be left with too many hazardous branches to remove at once.

Late winter is ideal, but if you’re pruning apple trees in the spring, prune them as early as possible in the season. You want to ensure your tree is just creeping out of dormancy and hasn’t started pushing out new growth. If you prune your tree too late into spring, you generally won’t see results until the following year.

That said, there’s no pruning season for unhealthy growth. Remove dead, dying, or diseased branches as soon as you notice them, regardless of the time of year.

While trees can grow in the curb strip between the sidewalk and the street, this placement often poses the problem of interfering with overhead power lines. It’s best to consult your local utility provider and tree planting service before transplanting a tree that might grow into power lines. Also, you should never work within 20 feet of a live power line to avoid the risk of electric shock. Tree branches should never touch nearby power lines, so it’s essential to ensure your tree isn’t in danger of growing too close to them.

Dead tree branches should be removed, because they can cause the tree to lose nutrients. They can also make the tree more susceptible to disease and pests. Removing dead and diseased branches can help the tree recover and increase the odds of saving a dying tree. Make sure to prune the tree correctly to avoid damaging it further.
