"Kingdom Riderz is better than rest. I know because of the problems I encountered while looking for tree cutters. Friends and neighbors gave us names and phone numbers, we tried Home Advisor too. Only one of them worked out, Kingdom Riderz. The others either didn’t call back, didn’t show up, failed to show proof of insurance, or would too expensive. Kingdom Riderz owner, Patrick Drye, returned my call, showed up when he said he would, gave proof of insurance and a reasonable bid. Kingdom Riderz is better because it has a team of professionals. Patrick Drye sets the tone. He works hard and so do his guys. They work steadily, safely and cooperatively. They are skilled at tree cutting and they communicate well with customers. All my questions were answered promptly and courteously. Kingdom Riderz is better because it has all equipment necessary to do a top notch job. They have a bucket truck, dump truck, chipper, at least a dozen chain saws and long ropes, a bobcat with an attachment for lifting tree trunks, a hauling van, and a very large grinder. Their stump grinder is fantastic. It grinds the stump to a fine mulch. When they spread out the remains of the tree you can’t tell there was ever a tree there. I’ve seen OTHER people’s version of stump grinding – they just cut the stump as close as possible to the ground. They don’t actually grind the stump. Kingdom Riderz is better because they clean up as they go. They grind the limbs as their trimmed, rake up the rest, and remove the larger pieces with the bobcat. At the end of the day, they clean up any personal items and stow the tools. Kingdom Riderz is better because the owner is trustworthy. Patrick Drye did everything he promised to do and at the price he agreed to. Kingdown Riderz is just plain better. If you need trees cut down. Give them a call. You’ll be glad you did."

"Came out the next day to give a quote. Quote was very reasonable (it was a large yard with multiple stumps) and we scheduled the work for the following Monday. Showed up on time and had the whole lot done in only a few hours. Even offered to come back and knock the stumps down more if necessary after I get the yard graded. 5 stars would recommend and use again."

Tree Service FAQs, answered by experts

Generally, you should prune around 20% of an apple tree’s growth—and never more than 30%. This means that if you have a severely overgrown tree, it can take a few seasons to prune it back enough to produce the healthiest fruit. 

If you’re dealing with a newly planted or juvenile tree, hold off on pruning beyond the initial shaping. Wait at least a couple of seasons into fruit production since pruning can increase the number of water sprouts and unproductive foliage.

Yes, many services include stump grinding to eliminate tripping hazards and improve aesthetics.

Most experts recommend removing a tree that has sustained more than 25% loss in the limbs, trunk, or circumference of the bark. Doing an initial trimming of damaged and dangling branches, but then waiting a few days of monitoring to decide how much more you might need to cut can help you better assess the total damage to the tree. However, consulting a tree maintenance pro to make this determination the best course of action before removing a tree.

On average, tree removal costs around $750, with a typical range between $200 and $2,000. The final price depends on several factors, including the tree's height, trunk diameter, species, and overall health. Accessibility is also a key factor; costs will be higher if the tree is in a hard-to-reach area or located near structures like power lines or your home. Additional costs may apply for services such as stump removal (which can add $100 to $150), log-splitting, debris cleanup, and obtaining necessary permits. It is also customary to tip the professional, usually between $20 and $100.

You can use the formula mentioned earlier to calculate the depth of tree roots. Each inch of width of a tree trunk translates to six inches of depth within the root system. Large trees extend anywhere from 2 to 6 feet into the ground, with some magnificent specimens going even deeper.
