It was a horrible experience. They did did take the one tree down okay, but none of the other work was completed at all satisfactorily. The work that Adam said needed to be done was not, they totally butchered a live oak and pecan tree- aggressively over trimmed. Additionally work that should have been done was not. When i called Adam to complain, he came out apologized and agreed they had done way too much. He also said they would be back complete the work not done, treat the cuts, and fertilize the trees. None of that was done- it was just lip service. Additionally, one of the trees they didn't trim enough knocked our chimney cap off so i called Adam and asked him to come and take care of it. He told me they trimmed the tree correctly. Apparently the chimney grew. At any rate he didn't assume any responsibility for either the tree or the damage caused by the poor work. Other things that they don't do is provide a work order or invoice- you get a verbal quote, they supposedly share that with the crew that comes on site, but if you use them it is your responsibility to make sure they do everything you were charged for- all without the benefit of any written document. They do expect to be paid at the time of service however- they got that down..

Andrew and his crew came and brought down the tree. It went well and Andrew and Pedro came back the next day to grind the stump. During the grinding a belt broke rendering the grinder inoperable. Within a few days it was repaired and Andrew and Pedro returned to finish the job. We are very satisfied with the job done and would recommend Adam's Tree Service to anyone who asked.

The tree cutting crew are very skilled and hard working. The company has professional equipment and experienced workers. However, the company owner has absolutely no respect for your time. If he sets your appointment for 2:00 pm (just an example) , he may be there at 4:00, he may be there at 6:00 or he may nor show up at all, but he will not be there at 2:00. If for personal or work related reasons he needs to reschedule your job, he will, but you will be the last to know. I have used this company twice and my opinion of the owner and his crew is the same. There must be other competent tree service companies out there where the owner wants your business and treats you with respect, therefore I will not use Adam's tree service again.

They came a day early, which was great. They had time at the end of a day to start, and finished the following day. My yard looked far better after they left. My grass is finally growing because of the sun light getting to it, and my trees are thriving. The crew were very skilled. I could not believe how careful they were when lowering huge branches to the ground. <br />

They came and did the trimming shortly after I Oked the work to be done.  All the trimming was done as I would have expected (except they cut one branch by a squirrel house that I would not have cut but then again I was no specific to not cut it) The clean up after the work was excellent compared to some past contractors I had used. <br />

I called Adam for an estimate to trim 2 trees before hurricane season.  He showed as he was in the neighborhood.  I told him I would consider him since he was a certified Tree Arborist.  Well the crew showed up and como-cos' me one day when I hadn't approved or scheduled as they were rained out from Bear Creek Golf Course and thought they would just randomly pick up a job.  So I allowed them to trim two trees.  Adam wasn't with them.   Within months a limb had fallen after they trimmed my trees.  I called and Adam said he would come by to look and he never did.  I did get a call from the appointment desk scheduler to inquire about scheduling an estimate.  What?  Nevertheless, today is 4/4/13 and the second tree had a 12' limb fall on my pergola/roof yesterday.  So did they trim my trees?  Yes!  Did I have limbs fall after the tree trimming?  Yes!  <br /> <br /> <br />

The only disappointing aspect of the job was the promptness of both Adam and his crew.  Had scheduled a time with Adam for the estimate.  When time was ticking past due, I called him and he told me, oh your are just down the road from me, I will be there in an hour.  I stayed home from work and he did not show.  I sent him a text saying I was going to work and he showed up 30 minutes later. <br /> Same with the crew.  In the AM I sent Adam a text  to get an ETA.  Was told ~2PM, it was 5:30 when they showed. <br /> Would I use them again, absolutely.  However, I might just ask to be the first job of the day and wait until that slot is open. <br />
Response from ADAM'S TREE SERVICE
"We apologize for the timing issues. It is difficult to estimate exactly when one job will be completed. We will certainly try to improve our scheduling."

The team did a great job for us. They arrived as scheduled and worked diligently to complete the job as timely as possible without sacrificing the integrity of their work. Two Team Leaders were on site at all times and they helped facilitate a smooth operation. They were open to all of our suggestions/directives during the job and also offered some of their own suggestions which were well received by us. We had some unique requests in terms of what we did vs. didn't want pruned and had to stay on top of that with the team leaders to ensure follow through...but those were minimal and the guys  manning the saws were quick to do whatever we asked of them. <br /> Overall, it was a positive experience I will definitely hire them again! <br /> <br />

I used to be always happy with their service.  They used to  leave everything very neat. .  They give good advice on how to take care of them.  Their prices are good - not cheap - but good.
Response from ADAM'S TREE SERVICE
"The customer was contacted about concerns. The customer was given a free tree removal in order to get the stump grinder to the necessary location for her job. She was notified about clean up issues and told the crew not to worry, she would have her yard man take care of things. The customer claims a PVC pipe was broken. No one on the crew has any knowledge of a PVC pipe but an offer was made to repair said pipe. The customer declined the offer and declined the offer of reimbursement for repairs."

Adam's came by my house shortly after I called to take a look at the two trees I wanted trimmed. I could not be there, but he patiently did a walk-through with me by phone and seemed to get the gist of what I was looking for. He also noted some dead wood on a tall pine tree over the driveway (which I asked to be addressed) and overgrowth on a hackberry behind the garage (which I said I'd look at later but wasn't immediately concerned about). <br /> The crew initially was supposed to come on Jan. 7 when I was home, but they got bogged down with pre-emergency work ahead of a major predicted storm, and asked to reschedule on a date I wasn't home. I was a little reticent, concerned they might miss something, but we went ahead. They did a beautiful job culling and reshaping a large pear in the front yard, cleaned up the pine as promised and dramatically raised the canopy on a backyard water oak that's close to the house. <br /> They went ahead and trimmed back the hackberry, which I ultimately did not ask for, but did not charge me more than the estimate. In hindsight I'm glad they did, but I'm happier they stuck to the original amount. <br /> I absolutely would and will use them again, and I'll recommend them to friends and neighbors. <br />

They are nice down to earth people. The price was reasonable, we had to cut the tree down one day and then have the trunk done another day. <br /> I would recommed them and I would use them again. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Joe <br />

Adam's quoted a price of $400 on the phone.  They did not label their quote as an estimate.  On arrival at the nursery, they changed their quote to $600. I agreed but was not happy with the increase after specifically telling them how large the tree was on the phone. However, they arrived on time and did a good job in moving the old tree and planting the new. Personnel were courteous and performed the job quickly.  They also installed tree posts and guide wires.  After the job was complete, the manager said the job went a lot smoother than he thought it would but still charged the additional $200. I just did not like change in price as it felt like a bait and switch manuever.

his company gets all A's in my book.  They showed up on time, after confirming by phone earlier in the week.  They did the work for exactly the price quoted, even though it took them a half a day longer than anticipated.  The trees look wonderful and healthy, and my yard is beautiful.  They hauled off all debris, even stacked some of the wood for my later use in the fireplace.  I will definitely use this company again.
