Landscaper Service<\/div>\nPruning at the wrong time costs you the bloom<\/h2>\n
Pruning at the wrong time costs you the bloom<\/h2>\n<\/div>\nWe handle tree & shrub care for homeowners, business owners and property managers across Wrentham, Norfolk, Franklin, Foxboro, Plainville, Medway and Bellingham. Whether you need one project or care all season long, you deal with the owner. That is true from the first phone call to the final walkthrough. There is no salesperson, call center or rotating crew of subcontractors in between. We have built our name in these towns since 2012. That work spans tree & shrub care and the full range of landscape and hardscape jobs. Reviews and repeat customers are the reason most of our new jobs come from word of mouth.<\/pee>Most shrubs are not dying \u2014 they are unpruned. Timed, correct pruning keeps plants in scale with the house and blooming on schedule.<\/pee>We prune by species and season, remove deadwood, shape for structure rather than shearing everything round, and flag plants that need replacing before you pay to keep them alive.<\/pee>The most expensive pruning mistake is free to make: cutting at the wrong time of year. Shrubs that bloom in spring \u2014 lilac, forsythia, rhododendron, azalea \u2014 set their flower buds the previous summer. Prune them in late winter or early spring and you cut off the show before it starts. Summer bloomers are the opposite. Getting this right is most of what separates plants that flower reliably from plants that just get smaller every year.<\/pee>Good pruning is also about structure. Removing crossing and rubbing branches, opening the center for light and air, and making clean cuts at the branch collar produce plants that are healthier, more wind-resistant and less prone to disease.<\/pee>\nCommon Tree & Shrub Care problems we fix<\/h3>\nMost people call us about tree & shrub care because something has already gone wrong, or they want to make sure it never does. These are the issues we see most often across Wrentham, Norfolk, Franklin, Foxboro, Plainville, Medway and Bellingham, and every one of them is preventable when the work is done right the first time:<\/pee>\n\n- ✓<\/span>Shrubs sheared into balls that stop blooming<\/li>\n
- ✓<\/span>Deadwood and crossing branches nobody removes<\/li>\n
- ✓<\/span>Plants outgrowing the house because pruning was skipped for years<\/li>\n
- ✓<\/span>Pruning at the wrong time of year and losing next season’s flowers<\/li>\n
- ✓<\/span>Paying to keep plants alive that should be replaced<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
What’s included with our Tree & Shrub Care<\/h3>\n\n- ✓<\/span>Species-correct pruning<\/li>\n
- ✓<\/span>Deadwood removal<\/li>\n
- ✓<\/span>Structural shaping<\/li>\n
- ✓<\/span>Bloom-time scheduling<\/li>\n
- ✓<\/span>Health assessment<\/li>\n
- ✓<\/span>Debris hauled away<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Every one of those items is part of the price we quote, not an upsell we spring on you halfway through. When we scope your tree & shrub care, we spell out exactly what is included so there are no surprises on the invoice and no corners cut where you cannot see them. If your project needs something not on this list, we will tell you up front and price it separately rather than quietly leaving it out to make the number look better.<\/pee>\nTrees and shrubs we look after<\/h3>\nThese photos come from properties our crew works on.

<\/figure>\n<\/div>\nHow the job runs<\/h3>\nWe keep the process simple and predictable so you always know what is happening and what comes next. Here is how a tree & shrub care job runs with Ten Four, from the first call to the final walkthrough, with the owner reachable at every step.<\/pee>\n\n\n01<\/div>\n\nHealth and structure assessment<\/div>\nWe look at each plant for deadwood, crossing branches, disease and structural problems before we cut, so pruning solves a problem instead of just shortening growth.<\/pee><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n02<\/div>\n\nSpecies-correct, bloom-time pruning<\/div>\nDifferent plants are pruned different ways at different times. Cutting a spring bloomer in early spring removes this year’s flowers. We prune to the species and to the bloom cycle.<\/pee><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n03<\/div>\n\nDeadwood and structural shaping<\/div>\nDead and damaged wood comes out first, then we shape for structure and sight lines, making cuts that heal cleanly rather than leaving stubs.<\/pee><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n04<\/div>\n\nClean-up and haul-away<\/div>\nAll prunings are collected and hauled; nothing is left in the beds or the woods line.<\/pee><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\nWhat drives the price<\/h3>\nHonest answer: tree & shrub care is priced by the job, not off a rate card, because no two properties are the same. Anyone who quotes you a firm price over the phone without seeing the site is guessing, and that guess usually turns into a change order later. We would rather walk the property, understand exactly what you want, and give you a real written number. A few of the things that move the price up or down:<\/pee>\n\nThe number, size and species of plants<\/pee><\/div>\nHow overgrown or neglected they are<\/pee><\/div>\nAccess and whether ladders or lifts are needed<\/pee><\/div>\nVolume of debris to haul<\/pee><\/div>\n<\/div>\nWhen to schedule<\/h3>\nSpring and fall are ideal for planting and pruning, and we prune to each plant’s bloom cycle so you never lose a season of flowers. Our calendar for tree & shrub care fills up fastest in spring and early fall, so the sooner you reach out, the more flexibility you have on timing. If you are planning ahead, we are happy to get you on the schedule early and confirm the details closer to the date.<\/pee>\nThe crew and the equipment<\/h3>\nEvery tree & shrub care job is run by Seth and our own crew, not subcontractors, with the equipment and materials matched to the work in front of us. The person who quotes your job is the person on site while it is built, so nothing gets lost between the estimate and the finished result. We show up with the right machines for the job, keep the site clean while we work, and leave it the way we would want our own property left. We source our materials from suppliers we have worked with for years, so what goes into your tree & shrub care is the same quality we would put on our own homes, not the cheapest thing available that week.<\/pee>\nOur service area<\/h3>\nOur yard is in Wrentham, so tree & shrub care in Wrentham, Norfolk, Franklin, Foxboro, Plainville, Medway and Bellingham is close-to-home work for us, not a drive we pad the estimate to cover. We know the clay-heavy New England<\/a> soil, the frost depth that decides how we build, and the freeze-thaw that punishes anything built shallow or drained poorly. We live and work in the same towns you do. If you ever need us back, we are only a short drive away. We also care what the neighbors think of the work, because they are our neighbors too.<\/pee>\nAbout your estimate<\/h3>\nYour tree & shrub care estimate is free and in writing, with the scope spelled out line by line — no vague allowances that balloon once the work is underway. Seth walks the property with you before we quote it, listens to what you are actually trying to solve, and puts a real number on paper. If something changes once we open up the site, you hear about it before we do the work, not after. We will also tell you honestly if a smaller, cheaper approach would serve you just as well — we would rather do the right-sized job and earn the next one than oversell you once.<\/pee>\nWhy a local owner-operator<\/h3>\nSeth Dias owns Ten Four and is on the job, not just on the estimate, so the person accountable for your tree & shrub care is the person actually doing it. We have worked in these towns since 2012 and built a five-star Google reputation the honest way, one finished job at a time. A big franchise can send a different crew every visit; with us, you get the same face, the same standards and someone who still has to see you at the hardware store next week. That accountability is the whole point of hiring a local owner-operator. Our name is on the truck, on the estimate and on the reputation. Cutting a corner on your tree & shrub care is never worth it to us.<\/pee>\nWhy choose Ten Four for Tree & Shrub Care<\/h3>\nThere are plenty of people who will quote you tree & shrub care. Here is what you get with Ten Four that you do not get everywhere else:<\/pee>\n\n- ✓<\/span>Done by our own crew<\/strong> — Ten Four Landscape & Construction does not subcontract tree & shrub care; Seth Dias walks the property and stays on the job.<\/li>\n

- ✓<\/span>One call, one invoice<\/strong> — tree & shrub care coordinated with the rest of your property so nothing is redone later.<\/li>\n
- ✓<\/span>Local since 2012<\/strong> — the same owner-operator, serving Wrentham, Norfolk, Franklin, Foxboro, Plainville, Medway and Bellingham from our Wrentham yard.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Signs it’s time for Tree & Shrub Care<\/h3>\n\n- ✓<\/span>Shrubs are overgrown, leggy or blocking windows and walks<\/li>\n
- ✓<\/span>Deadwood, crossing branches or storm damage is visible<\/li>\n
- ✓<\/span>Plants that used to bloom barely flower now<\/li>\n

Tree & Shrub Care questions we get<\/h3>\n\n\nHow much does tree & shrub care cost in Wrentham, MA?<\/h4>\n<\/summary>\nIt depends on the size of the property, site access and the materials involved. Estimates are free and in writing across Wrentham, Norfolk, Franklin, Foxboro, Plainville, Medway and Bellingham. Seth walks the property with you first so the number reflects the real job, not a guess.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n\n\nAre your tree & shrub care estimates really free?<\/h4>\n<\/summary>\nYes. Every estimate from Ten Four Landscape & Construction is free and delivered in writing, with no obligation.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n\n\nWhat is included with tree & shrub care?<\/h4>\n<\/summary>\nOur standard scope includes species-correct pruning, deadwood removal, structural shaping, bloom-time scheduling, health assessment, debris hauled away. Anything outside that is listed separately on your estimate so there are no surprises.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n\n\nDo you do tree & shrub care for commercial properties and property managers?<\/h4>\n<\/summary>\nYes. We work for homeowners, business owners and property management companies. Commercial and managed properties get a written scope, certificates of insurance on file and one point of contact.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n\n\nWhich towns do you serve for tree & shrub care?<\/h4>\n<\/summary>\nWrentham, Norfolk, Franklin, Foxboro, Plainville, Medway and Bellingham, Massachusetts \u2014 all from our yard at 2570 West St, Wrentham.

Most structural pruning is best done in late winter or early spring, while the plant is dormant. Spring bloomers such as lilac, forsythia and rhododendron should be pruned right after they flower. Heavy pruning in late summer or fall is worth avoiding.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n\n\nWho will actually be doing the work?<\/h4>\n<\/summary>\nOur own crew, with our own equipment. Ten Four Landscape & Construction is owner-operated: Seth Dias started landscaping in 2001, founded the company in 2012, and is on site for every job.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n\n\nAre you licensed and insured?<\/h4>\n<\/summary>\nYes.

We treat every job — large or small — as if the next customer is going to drive by and judge our work by it, because in these towns, they usually do.

Our calendar for tree & shrub care fills up fastest in spring and early fall, so the sooner you reach out, the more flexibility you have on timing. If you are planning ahead, we are happy to get you on the schedule early and confirm the details closer to the date.<\/pee>\n The crew and the equipment<\/h3>\n
Every tree & shrub care job is run by Seth and our own crew, not subcontractors, with the equipment and materials matched to the work in front of us. The person who quotes your job is the person on site while it is built, so nothing gets lost between the estimate and the finished result. We show up with the right machines for the job, keep the site clean while we work, and leave it the way we would want our own property left. We source our materials from suppliers we have worked with for years, so what goes into your tree & shrub care is the same quality we would put on our own homes, not the cheapest thing available that week.<\/pee>\n Our service area<\/h3>\n
Our yard is in Wrentham, so tree & shrub care in Wrentham, Norfolk, Franklin, Foxboro, Plainville, Medway and Bellingham is close-to-home work for us, not a drive we pad the estimate to cover. We know the clay-heavy New England<\/a> soil, the frost depth that decides how we build, and the freeze-thaw that punishes anything built shallow or drained poorly. We live and work in the same towns you do. If you ever need us back, we are only a short drive away. We also care what the neighbors think of the work, because they are our neighbors too.<\/pee>\n About your estimate<\/h3>\n
Your tree & shrub care estimate is free and in writing, with the scope spelled out line by line — no vague allowances that balloon once the work is underway. Seth walks the property with you before we quote it, listens to what you are actually trying to solve, and puts a real number on paper. If something changes once we open up the site, you hear about it before we do the work, not after. We will also tell you honestly if a smaller, cheaper approach would serve you just as well — we would rather do the right-sized job and earn the next one than oversell you once.<\/pee>\n Why a local owner-operator<\/h3>\n
Seth Dias owns Ten Four and is on the job, not just on the estimate, so the person accountable for your tree & shrub care is the person actually doing it. We have worked in these towns since 2012 and built a five-star Google reputation the honest way, one finished job at a time. A big franchise can send a different crew every visit; with us, you get the same face, the same standards and someone who still has to see you at the hardware store next week. That accountability is the whole point of hiring a local owner-operator. Our name is on the truck, on the estimate and on the reputation. Cutting a corner on your tree & shrub care is never worth it to us.<\/pee>\n Why choose Ten Four for Tree & Shrub Care<\/h3>\n

Tree & Shrub Care questions we get<\/h3>\n
\n\n

What is included with tree & shrub care?<\/h4>\n<\/summary>\n
Our standard scope includes species-correct pruning, deadwood removal, structural shaping, bloom-time scheduling, health assessment, debris hauled away. Anything outside that is listed separately on your estimate so there are no surprises.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n\n\n

Which towns do you serve for tree & shrub care?<\/h4>\n<\/summary>\n
Wrentham, Norfolk, Franklin, Foxboro, Plainville, Medway and Bellingham, Massachusetts \u2014 all from our yard at 2570 West St, Wrentham. If you are just outside that area, call and ask.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n\n\n
When is the best time of year for tree & shrub care?<\/h4>\n<\/summary>\n
It depends on the plant. Most structural pruning is best done in late winter or early spring, while the plant is dormant. Spring bloomers such as lilac, forsythia and rhododendron should be pruned right after they flower. Heavy pruning in late summer or fall is worth avoiding.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n\n\n
