Welcome To Rikin Tree Service
We Bring Local Professionals with Modern Equipment
Our team knows Cookeville because we work here every week, not just on paper. We show up with modern rigging gear, trained climbers, and fair pricing on every job. Locals sometimes call the city the “Hub of the Upper Cumberland,” and the tree canopy reflects that mix of college-town neighborhoods and working farmland.
Our arborists are familiar with oaks, hickories, and tulip poplars that dominate older yards near Dogwood Park. Subdivisions closer to Cummins Falls State Park mix in maple and dogwood plantings that need regular care to stay in good shape.
At Rikin Tree Service, you get a crew that understands both the historic downtown streets and the quiet gravel roads outside town. We serve rural properties and urban blocks with the same careful attention. Our goal is to make tree maintenance simple for you.

Our Tree Care Services
Rikin Tree Service provides tree care solutions built for Cookeville’s mix of homes and businesses. We serve single-family homes, retail stores, restaurants, and medical clinics across the area.
Tree Trimming
Overgrown limbs block sunlight and stress your lawn underneath. We shape canopies to restore healthy growth and protect your roofline from storm damage.
01
Tree Cutting
Open lots allow a full, single-piece cut when space permits. We drop trees whole when there’s clear room away from your home or driveway. This method saves time and budget.
02
Tree Removal
Some trees come down piece by piece for safety near structures. Our climbers dismantle hazardous or dying trees section by section, protecting fences, roofs, and power lines nearby.
03
Stump Grinding
We grind stumps flush around brick bungalows, ranch homes, and split-level houses common throughout Cookeville subdivisions. Your yard stays level and ready for new grass or landscaping.
04
Stump Removal
Full stump removal pulls roots that threaten driveways or new construction plans. We extract the entire root ball when grinding alone won’t solve your grading needs.
05
Emergency Tree Service
Our team responds fast when a tornado or downburst leaves a tree resting on your property. We clear hazards quickly and protect your family’s safety first.
