Adirondack Tree Experts

Amazing. I had three large dead trees leaning precariously over my irreplaceable back fence. Today Adirondack came out and cleanly removed all three with no apparent damage to anything on the property — they even raked the grass clean of any twigs or wood chips. I expected to see tire ruts in the grass from equipment used to haul out the heavy pieces but there’s no trace. I wish I had been home to see how they accomplished this challenging feat.

Recommended by my neighbor. Outstanding service. From my initial phone conversation, to the survey and estimate, through the work crew, they were polite, courteous, competent and professional. Not a fly by night operation. They took a couple of big old ash and oak trees that were really ratty and made them beautiful. And, the price was very reasonable. I will definitely use Adirondack again.

This is the second time I’ve had Adirondack Tree Experts take care of some trees on my property and I have been impressed both times. This latest time, the crew of five removed a large red oak tree in the front of my property. The crew was courteous, respectful of my property, and skilled at their jobs. The tree was down and the site was cleaned up on three hours! They arrived promptly and got to work.
Oh, and the price – it was the best of three quotes. Adirondack beat them all hands down. I was actually thinking they would be the most expensive, but they turned out to be the least expensive AND the best value. One quote was from a door-​to-​door fellow and the other was from a local, established tree company here in the Hyattsville/​College Park/​U. of MD area.
I was very impressed w/​Adirondack and will definitely give them my business again if we ever have tree issues.

I contacted 4 companies for bids, not only were they the first to get my bid to me, they were also almost half the price. In addition to a good description of the work and costs by item, they also included their license and insurance information. The work was done as explained. Also, the day they were scheduled to work, there were storm warnings — when I mentioned it with the office administrator who called to let me know the crew was at the site, she said they were bringing in a second crew from another job to help. I will be using them again for my tree needs.

Adirondack is my go-​to company when I need tree work done. They are well-​priced and are able to come do the work in a timely manner. They generally err on the side of doing less pruning on the trees, which I appreciate. I never feel as though I’m getting talked into doing more work than is necessary.

Good Price. Great Crew. Removed two trees (one leaning across a fence) quickly and without mess.

I dreaded having a large oak in my back yard removed, and put it off for years (until it really started leaning precariously over my house). My back yard is not easily accessible (a narrow gated sidewalk) and large equipment (cranes, etc.) were not an option. I finally gave Adirondack a call, and I couldn’t be happier with the service. The estimator came out a day or two after my call, and gave me a great price. The crew came out a few days later and took down the tree with no problem. They were extremely professional and left my yard looking better than it did when they arrived. The office staff is courteous and helpful. If I could give them more than 5 stars, I would.

I called around several places for tree trimming for DC. Ended up with Adirondack as they were pretty much the only game in town and they got good Unilocal reviews.
They were quite expensive but I needed the service done so I sucked it up and did it. They asked for signed letters from my neighbors which I understand but some form to have them sign would have been helpful. I sent them to the only email address I had. They either never got forwarded to their admin group due to incompetence or forgetfulness. I sent them again, same guy again I have no email contacts outside of this one fellow. He said he had them. Ok fine. A glitch, I get it. No worries. Go and trim the trees. There are falling branches. They go and charge me almost $ 2000 and they leave a HUGE branch in the wires! I write to complain that they left a branch. Possibly it was there before they got there but I expected branch removal. Email sent to the only email address I have. I get a rude email back from the PRESIDENT (John W. Anna, Jr. President/​CEO) basically saying, deadwood only means deadwood still in the tree. Then ha said «Are you having a bad day, because you are not very pleasant!» This is their idea of customer service!!! Seriously? Give me a call. Talk to me. What a jerk. If you use them watch them like a hawk and don’t give them your CC number until the job is done to your satisfaction.

I truly respect Unilocal reviews. With that said, this company truly disappointed me.
I’ve worked in a number of businesses related to real estate and real estate management and I’ve never seen such carelessness.
Here’s the thing, you give me a call warning the week before to tell me you are still scheduled to come the following week. I get called up on a project I have the potential to make a fair amount but I obviously committed this 1 hour to a service, so I work around it. That ONE hour comes up and you never inform me you are here. The hour was 2 – 3. At 2:15 I saw an envelope with the estimate.
Unfortunately, if you would have simply rang a door bell or knocked on the door, I would have answered and talked with you. Instead, you did the easy and evaluated some general concept. In summary, the cost you estimated is not realistic for trimming a tree.

They were very professional & knew what they were doing. They showed up within the time frame with enough people. They worked quickly & cleaned up our yard nicely. Plus they are flexible– we needed a branch removed & then decided last minute to have a small tree removed. They were able to accommodate us. Their prices were very reasonable. Oh, and it was really fun to watch them work.

We just purchased a house in Silver Spring and needed to take down a tree that was the cause of significant chimney damage. Adirondack gave me an estimate that was almost $ 1000 cheaper than the other estimate I got! They were able to schedule for the next day and we didn’t even have to be there on site.

Superb service! Had a large pine tree removed from my parents’ backyard. They did an extremely professional and efficient job in removing the tree and cleaned up after themselves beautifully. Everyone– Dan (who did our estimates), the young lady who attends to their telephones, and their actual tree removal experts– was extremely courteous, polite and competent. They were prompt and their work was excellent. Keep up the great work and thank you! Only company I will call when I need tree work performed!

We had a tree fall on our house after a week of nonstop rain in the DMV area. The tree went across three properties and the company was more than willing to contact the neighbors about getting the tree removed from their property to make sure it wouldn’t somehow end up back on our property. The tree came down around midnight Thursday/​Friday, they were out by 2pm Friday for the estimate, and they were at our house around 2pm Saturday to take it down. We couldn’t be home during the actual removal, due to prior commitments, but our neighbor said «it was awesome.» She said they brought in about 7 or 8 trucks with a large crane to get the tree off our roof and would take huge chunks and drop it in a shredder. She loved watching them work and was surprised at how clean they left the yard/​property. It was great coming home to no more tree and almost no evidence they were ever there. My neighbor actually wants to use them now, if we can get the city to permit her removing the tree on her lot!

these guys are the best… they took down a 100ft. poplar and associated debris in the yard where the tree’s 60ft. leader had fallen causing all sorts of damage… it was on the county right of way — so the county paid — therefore — can’t comment on their pricing — but i do know that this company is much more professional and competent than those bozos in the orange trucks… highly recommend this company… they did a great job with both removal and clean-up…and — they are nice guys as well as highly competent and professional

They were very easy to deal with. They came when they said. They were very reasonable. They cleaned up everything that they took down. They were friendly, did a fast, realiable, reasonable job. They removed everything I had been quoted and I was very pleased.
Highly recomend them. Give them a shot you will be very happy.

I hired Adirondack Tree Experts to take down a large black locust tree in the backyard of a property in Upper NW, Washington, DC.
A City arborist issued a permit for the tree removal — free of charge — because the tree was in decline.
I received estimates from more than eight companies. Adirondack was the least expensive. And, I received positive recommendations for Adirondack from neighbors.
They arrived on schedule, as promised. And, they were organized and worked diligently to remove the tree limbs one-​by-​one. They removed all of the limbs and debris. The property was completely clean when the job was finished.
I didn’t have the stump removed for this job. They did cut what was left of the tree very close to the ground.
The office staff was friendly, organized, and provided clear instructions.
I highly recommend this company.

I needed work done on three trees.- removal of deadwood and raising the canopy 5 – 7 ft above roof level. The estimate i got was reasonable, and the references provided were very good. The foreman of the crew, the estimator told me, was a trained arborist. They did indeed raise the tree canopy — by chopping off all the branches on that side of the house. The effect is lopsided and quite ugly. I have difficulty believing the bit about the trained arborist.
On the plus side, the crew was pleasant and polite and they did a very good job cleaning up after themselves. But i definitely cannot recommend them and would certainly never use them again. Vijaya M

Here’s the deal. I got over 6 quotes to remove a huge old ash off the side of a rental property I have up in Laurel, MD. Some guys show up with a stakebed, a rented stump grinder, two chainsaws, and about 3 workers. These guys showed up with one dump truck, one chippings truck, a stump grinder a 60′ crane, and 6 workers. They took their time taking the tree down. They wore safety goggles and gloves. They raked the asphalt after every large limb went into the tree chipper. EVERY time. Not just the last time (Why is this a big deal? Because you could trip on a small branch in front of the machine and get dragged into it. Very safe.) Instead of having huge chunks of tree fall to the ground willy nilly, each large segment was brought to the ground by crane. All the equipment is clean. The workers need NO supervision– each man pitched in to do a task without being told. Wow. This company ROCKS. Safety. Cleanliness. Professionalism. If only they would have removed the two small surface roots they left behind– (Stump removal if you pay for it only goes out 3′ by their contract– read it!)
