The Story Behind Essex Groundsmen
Adrian Wheeler, the owner of The Essex Groundsmen, took an extraordinary leap from the world of money brokering to pursuing his true passion - arboriculture. Swapping suits for saws, Adrian trained at the renowned Writtle College in Chelmsford, where he earned a City & Guilds diploma in 1999 and gained his NPTC certification in climbing and felling.
With a deep love for nature and an eye for precision, Adrian founded The Essex Groundsmen upon completing his qualifications. Since then, he has built a reputation for delivering professional, honest, and safety-focused services to homes and businesses across Essex. Whether it's tree surgery or garden transformations, Adrian thrives on turning outdoor spaces into something extraordinary for his valued clients.
