"Considerate, friendly, true 'customer service' by listening to what needed to be done, and then doing it well. Their business information states many other jobs a homeowner may need, and they found time to help with work that needed to be done, and accomplished it quickly and efficiently. Attention to the clean-up detail was deeply appreciated."

"Back in March, Rigby Affordable Tree Service came to my home to do the unthinkable job. An Oak tree, over 100 years old, that my house was literally built around needed to be taken out, because every limb extended over every square foot of the new roof. With every gust of wind there was a concern of limbs 3 feet and more in diameter falling that would have certainly destroyed the house. Of course there was phone calls to other tree services in the Muncie area, but not one company would commit to doing this huge job, well except Rigby Affordable Tree Care. Not only did they commit, but the weâ re punctual, professional, honest and very affordable! A month has gone by and I am still in awe at how well this job turned out. The business owners were on the job sight on multiple occasions overseeing the work, and through multiple conversations I can attest that they are people of very high character. With this massive oak only 6-10 inches from the gutter line of my home it was a tricky job to say the least. There mindfulness, calm demeanor, and professionalism never left me with any concern. If you support small business and you have tree work in the Muncie and surrounding areas, I highly recommend that you call affordable tree care. They will not only get the job done with an affordable price but they will get the job done safely. Thank you affordable tree care for your outstanding work!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

All of the tree root removal methods mentioned above are effective on any kind of root, whether it’s still growing or simply needs a gentle nudge to finish decomposing. The only difference is that larger roots tend to be harder to remove and may require multiple chemical treatments as well as manual labor to eradicate.

Yes, forestry mulching can grind stumps, but the level of effectiveness depends on the equipment used. Drum mulchers can break down smaller stumps, but larger or deep-rooted stumps may require a dedicated stump grinder for complete removal. If full stump removal is necessary for replanting or construction, additional excavation may be needed. Always check with your forestry mulching provider to confirm whether they offer stump grinding and if their equipment is suitable for your specific needs.

It is possible to burn out a tree stump if it is dried out and in an area of your property with a large buffer. Drill holes in the stump and dig around the base so it burns more easily. Then, build a small campfire on top using kindling and firewood. You’ll need enough to keep the fire going for many hours to completely burn out the stump, especially if it’s large. 

Monitor the fire closely to ensure it doesn’t spread, and have a hose on hand if it starts to get out of control. When the fire is out, break apart the burned stump and dig out what’s left of it.  

If this sounds like a good option, learn more about how to burn a tree stump before attempting it, as it does come with risks.

Pruning trees is important for several reasons. It improves tree health and strength by removing dead, diseased, or unwanted branches, which in turn encourages new growth and can help treat disease. For fruit trees, proper pruning can lead to a larger and better-quality harvest. Pruning also enhances safety by removing weak limbs that could break and fall, potentially causing injury or property damage, especially during storms. Beyond these functional benefits, pruning can also improve a tree's appearance. To ensure pruning is done correctly for the tree's long-term health, consider hiring a professional.

If you’re planning on keeping the tree, unless the roots are invasive, there’s no need to remove them, as doing so can cause damage to the tree. If the tree has been cut down and the stump and roots are left, grinding and removing the stump can cause root decay for some species. For other species, the stump and roots will need to be removed to prevent pests, disease, and possible tree regrowth.
