Customers say: True professional

"Great job and immediate response to the request for the job. High end precision equipment and did exactly what was needed. I could have probably gotten my grinding done less expensively but the stumps were close to buried cables and we did not know exactly where they were in relation to the roots and he managed to grind what was above ground and slightly under the surface without damage to the cables underground. Concierge grinding with essentially a small robotic tractor. I misheard the quote and thought I was rounding up with the check I wrote but actually paid a little less than the quote but they said it was fine. Quality contractor."

"Jerry responded less than an hour after I posted the job and I had an incredibly fair quote an hour after that. Jerry and his crew took down a very large cottonwood tree in our yard. They were right on time they communicated the process in a cohesive and very understandable way. They were careful not to hurt the lawn. They worked incredibly hard and finish the job in about five hours. I would highly recommend this company. You would be doing yourself a disservice if you didn’t give them a call."

I started my business because I’ve always been a hardworking, hands-on person who takes pride in making things look their best. I have experience with landscaping, flower bed maintenance, weeding, trimming, mulching, seasonal cleanups, overgrown property cleanups, and residential cleaning. I proudly serve Rochester and the surrounding Finger Lakes area, including Victor, Farmington, Canandaigua, Ontario County, and nearby communities. What sets me apart is that I genuinely care about my work and my customers. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, not afraid of hard work, and I never believe in cutting corners. I take the time to listen to what each customer wants and treat every property as if it were my own. My goal is to provide quality, honest, reliable service while leaving every customer with a finished product they can be proud of—and a reason to call me again

"Very well. 3-4 problem limbs were safely pruned and then hauled away. The 3 man crew was courteous, efficient and after the cuts, other than the new sunlight, one could not even tell they were here. All done on a Sunday afternoon when I had felt I was in dire need to get the offending limbs cut down ASAP. A dreary morning ended the day as a bright day for me all because of the professionalism and efficiency of Ralph and his tree company “Down Right Tree Experts”. When I awakened and fully realized my problem, I quickly decided then and there to go to Angi.com to find its recommendation to get a tree surgeon for my problem limbs pushing against my fascia, roof and backyard gutters. From a short list provided of 4 companies by Angi, I chose “ Down Right Tree Experts”. Ralph Kent, it’s principle partner, contacted me by text and was very gracious and respectful. Not at all “pushy”. Within a short time he and I decided that around 4pm he would send his men (working on another job) out to my home to look over my problem limbs and to take care of them if possible. Great!! The crew of three came, at the time they said they would, evaluated the situation, discuss everything with me, got my permission, and completed the work safely, neatly and effectively. The cost to me I thought was fair and reasonable. The crew cleaned up and carried all parts of the pruned tree limbs away for disposal. One would never know that they were even there. Because of the respect, fair cost and the total satisfactory of the job completion, I would consider hiring this company again!!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Hiring an arborist costs around $900 on average, with prices ranging from $250 to $2,500 or more. Some arborists charge an hourly rate, typically between $100 and $350 per hour. The final cost depends on several factors, including the type of work, the number of trees, accessibility, and whether you hire an independent arborist or a larger tree service company. When hiring, you should also consider their experience and insurance coverage.

Below are some estimated costs for common arborist jobs:

  • Small tree removal: $300 to $500

  • Large tree removal: $500 to $2,000 or more

  • Tree health assessment: $150

  • Trimming a small tree: $75 to $200

  • Trimming a large tree: $150 to $400

  • Dealing with invasive species: $150 to $1,000 or more

The best time to trim trees is in late fall through winter when the tree has slowed its growing for the year. Cold weather stops insects and fungal growth from attacking a new tree wound. Summer and fall are considered the worst times to trim trees, but it’s permissible in certain scenarios, such as tree disease, damaged branches, or small, aesthetic cuts.

Talking with a septic pro before planting trees near your tank is best to ensure the roots won’t interfere with your septic system. However, there is an easy way to figure out where to plant a tree—but you’ll need to know how tall it can get when it’s fully grown. For instance, if the tree can reach 50 feet, plant it at least 50 feet from your septic system.

You don’t always need a permit to grind a stump, but you might need one depending on your location and the stump’s surroundings. Permits are often needed if the stump is part of a protected tree species, near public areas or utility lines, or close to environmentally sensitive zones like wetlands. Some cities also regulate noise and work hours. Always check local rules before grinding, and contact your city or county office if you're unsure.

Generally, no, tree topping isn’t a good technique, and you should avoid using it in most cases. Tree topping may be the only good option to save a tree following severe damage after a storm, but in most other cases, it’s not the right choice. Tree topping can leave trees vulnerable to disease and further damage, and most pros will suggest against it.
