"Excellent experience with Dany Tree Service. Highly professional company with very competitive pricing. Great communication, flexible and easy to work with. Came out exactly when we agreed and willing to be flexible with some sewer construction on my street that impacted access to the property. In less than two hours, removed a 35 ft. tree and ground 4 stumps on the property; very impressive. Worked quickly and cleaned up very well afterward. Will recommend to everyone I know who needs tree services. A very pleasant and stress-free experience!"

"Excellent service... the RC team listens to your need and offers alternatives for consideration. We have used their service for full tree/stump removal on trees very close to house, as well as tree trimming of mature trees. In addition, they have helped clean-up rogue trees along farm fence lines. Very collaborative in their business style with timely, cost-effective execution. Top tier!"

"They had the whole tree taken down within the afternoon. The tree was surrounded by power lines,which no other tree service could handle with the equipment they had. They pulled out the remaining roots that would've damaged our newly paved driveway . We also were very satisfied with their landscaping . Highly recommended! They will be the first to call if we need any work done."

"Right Way Tree Service is exceptional!! That are on time and there cleanup of the debris was great. Walker the owner has an incredible knowledge of trees and his pruning/trimming artistry is fantastic. He just doesn’t come in and start cutting, he trims the trees with knowledge and experience. He is one of the best arborists I know of. You can’t go wrong with Right Way Tree Service!!!!"

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Carefully pruning small roots no thicker than three inches in diameter won’t harm the tree. However, cutting larger roots may impact the tree's stability and nutrient absorption. It's advisable to consult an arborist or tree care professional to evaluate the root's size, the tree's health, and the potential impact of cutting. Proper tree pruning techniques and timing can minimize damage, but larger root removal may necessitate expert guidance to avoid compromising the tree's overall health and stability.

Planting trees far enough from your foundation will protect your home from root damage, but if you’re dealing with existing trees, you can still guard against roots. Root barriers form a physical boundary that will prevent roots from encroaching on your foundation and can help save you from expensive foundation repair costs.

You can remove a small tree from your yard if there’s space for the tree to fall, you have the right tools and safety equipment, and you follow a clear plan of action. You’ll just want to follow the steps above carefully, and ideally, you will have experience doing similar tasks. If you have any doubts that you can do this project safely, though, you should hire a pro.

Usually, trees cannot grow back after their stump has been ground, but some very hearty types of trees can. For example, if you have a black locust or Redford pear, the grinding will need to go deep to prevent them from growing back. Ask your tree service or stump removal expert whether your tree can resprout after its stump is ground down.

In the case that a tree is growing directly on your property line, the cost of maintaining the tree is shared and is the property of both owners in common. In this case, all decisions regarding the maintenance of the tree must be made jointly, and both parties must agree on a course of action. You will need to agree with your neighbor about the cutting of any roots before you carry it out, and your neighbor must also consult with you before doing any trimming. Coming to an agreement with your neighbor about any shared trees ahead of necessary trimming and maintenance will make this process much simpler.
