When a residential or commercial property owner wants to remove tree roots, unique challenges may require a professional tree care company. Many people want to maintain healthy trees, but the roots cause structural damage and other safety hazards. If this is the scenario in your premises, the Sesmas Tree Service can help you remove the roots without harming the tree or destroying the yard.

How to Professionally Remove Tree Stumps Painlessly

We have seasoned tree service providers ready to help you evaluate surfaced roots that threaten the well-being and safety of your property. If you want to attempt root removal without the proper tools and expertise, don’t! The last thing you want is to severely damage the tree, causing death and attracting diseases and infestations to your premises.

Techniques for Removing Tree Roots Without Damage

A professional service provider can measure the tree’s diameter and estimate the size of the root system. This also helps to determine the ideal time and location to start removal without harming the tree. The best way to remove tree roots is to start at the edges so that you can allow the tree to continue growing without causing property damage.

There are safe chemical and physical root removal techniques, and a trusted tree care company can help you choose the most suitable option for your needs. The wrong root removal method can cause safety risks for children, pets, and surrounding plants. Even if you prefer a hands-on approach to root removal, have a certified arborist on the premises for guidance.

How Professional Tree Removal Companies Prepare Roots

Tree removal is a tremendous and potentially risky job. The slightest miscalculation can cause devastating damages, severe injuries, hefty repair costs, and fines for violating local laws. When you are ready to bring down a tree in your backyard, we adhere to safety protocols like clearing the work site and cutting notches at 70 to 90 degrees on the side you want the tree to fall. After the tree falls, root removal starts. Extensive root systems pose unique challenges for stump removal, so we recommend hiring a tree care company to handle the heavy lifting.

Root Removal without Removing a Tree

Tree root removal doesn’t have to be complicated, but it usually requires a professional tree service provider. An excellent example of such a scenario is when you want to eliminate the surface roots and keep the tree in your yard. We can dig out the soil around the base and remove portions of the root system to encourage regrowth without damaging the tree.

A tree canopy and its root system grow as the tree matures. If the canopy is vast and extends across the yard, chances are the roots are of similar length and can compromise the structural integrity of your foundation and other structures. We can cut out overgrown roots and identify which must remain for a healthy, lasting tree. Contact us at Sesmas Tree Service and schedule a consultation with our experts to learn about tree care and root removal from the experts.

Customer Reviews

3 large Leyland Cypress trees removed near front of our home. Excellent service, professional crew, very competitive pricing for superior work! Rolando provided the initial estimate and the  follow up and was the best in terms of customer relations. I'd both use this company again AND highly recommend them.

Susan Hitchcock

This is the 2nd time we have used Sesmas Tree Service. They are a wonderful company to deal with. They were on time, professional, and very thorough. They cleaned up prior to leaving and went out of their way to protect our plants and landscaping. And they kept to their proposal with no hidden cost or add ons. Definitely a five star experience!

Gene McFadden

Wow!  I deal with tree services in my professional work and I can honestly say Sesmas is by far the most professional, best equipped, efficient, safety conscious, and communicative service I've ever encountered.  Their price was very reasonable and they even went so far as to include additional work without increasing the price.  Call them!  Now! They are very quick to respond.

Scott McLendon

We've used Sesmas several times and have always received excellent service.  Estimates are quick and easy and the crew is efficient and leaves the property clean of debris.  Recently we needed a tree removed next to a heavily landscaped area.  Sebastian went over everything with me in detail and listened to my concerns.  The crew did an excellent job in removing the tree with minimal disturbance to the surrounding area.  We are pleased and will consider them again in the future for pruning and tree removal.

Tonia Griswold

Sesmas Tree Service was amazing! I had two dead trees cut and a lot of trees that were already down on my property removed. Sebastian came out and sent the quote in writing within 24 hours. We were in the process of scheduling the service when a slot opened up sooner snd I was able to go ahead and get the work done. Everything was explained ahead of time for what to expect. The crew was very efficient and professional.  All of the work and cleanup was done in one day. I would recommend Sesmas for your tree cutting/cleanup needs.

LaDora Woods

I hired Sesmas to cut down a very tricky tree that was hanging over my house as well as a few large limbs. They did a great job and had the machinery to get the job done right.

Perry Hartman

Great experience with Sesmas. They were meticulous with my tree removal, safe and efficient. David’s communication throughout the process was much appreciated. Highly recommend!

Lindsay Ellenburg

Great experience with Sesmas Tree Service. The arborist who came out was a Board Certified Master Arborist, and you could immediately tell he knew his stuff. He took the time to explain what needed to be done, gave us clear options, and helped us feel confident from start to finish. The whole process was easy and professional. We’ll definitely use them again.
