Tree and plant care services FAQs

Yes. When Kansas City experiences heavy storms, it’s common to see large branches from older and diseased trees. We respond quickly, provide a quote, take care of the fallen branches, and thoroughly remove debris.

Warning signs include visible decay, leaning, dead limbs, or roots lifting from the soil. Our certified arborists will provide a comprehensive inspection to determine the best course of action.

Yes. We chip branches, haul away debris, and leave your property clean. Our Kansas City plant and tree care services always put your home and its appearance first.

Stump grinding shreds the stump one foot below ground level, allowing the roots to decompose, so the tree will not grow back. We then fill in the hole with dirt and can spread grass seed to make the area look like the tree was never there.

Absolutely. We can level the area with soil and either reseed it with grass or prepare it for new landscaping, whichever you prefer.

Look for yellow leaves, needle or leaf drop, signs of branch or twig death, visible pests, browning of leaves or needles, small pale spots that turn orange, or black dots on the leaves. Still unsure? Let our RYAN Pros perform a thorough inspection and diagnosis.

Fungi and bacteria, rust disease, apple scab, and iron deficiencies, along with insects like emerald ash borers, Japanese Beetles, bagworms, and spider mites, all pose a risk to the health of your trees. However, our certified arborists can identify the exact cause of your trees’ and plants’ poor condition and determine the best approach for care.

Look for thinning leaves and branches at the top of the tree, S-shaped tunnels underneath the tree, D-shaped exit holes in the bark, woodpecker activity, or the growth of leafy shoots from the trunk or base of the tree. Our arborists can confirm EAB presence and recommend next steps before damage becomes irreversible.

Choosing the right preventative measures for treating your tree early is highly effective. Our special treatment method protects your tree for two years, at which time the tree will need to be treated again.

These signs typically indicate that your tree needs a boost of nutrition: small leaf or twig growth, dark veins in leaves, dead branches, and yellow leaves. RYAN offers the best blend of fertilizer for your tree’s needs, including phosphorus, nitrogen, and potassium.

A certified RYAN arborist inspects your tree’s health, stability, and surrounding risks. You’ll receive a detailed report with recommendations for pruning, treatment, or removal if needed. You can depend on us to be upfront and honest about our guidance.
