Tree Removal
When a tree is dead, storm-damaged, leaning, or simply too close to your home, removing it safely takes the right equipment and an insured crew. We remove trees of all sizes across the Wichita area — carefully rigging down limbs near houses, fences, and power lines so nothing gets damaged.
Kansas storms, ice loads, and diseases like Dutch elm and emerald ash borer leave a lot of hazardous trees standing. We assess the lean, the wood condition, and the drop zone, then take the tree down in a controlled way and clean up completely.
Wichita grew up on the open prairie as a Chisholm Trail cattle town, with almost no natural canopy — so settlers, and later the Dust Bowl shelterbelt programs of the 1930s, planted fast-growing shade and windbreak trees to make the place livable: cottonwood, silver maple, Siberian elm, and hackberry. The mid-century aircraft boom filled new subdivisions with the same quick species. Decades on, those trees are now oversized, and the fast growth that made them popular also gave them weak wood and included branch unions that fail in Kansas wind and ice.
That history is why removals cluster here. A cottonwood or silver maple that shot up in a 1960s yard is now a huge tree overhanging a roof, and the emerald ash borer confirmed in the area is killing untreated ash outright, leaving brittle, dangerous standing deadwood. We rig and remove oversized and hazardous trees near homes, fences, and power lines in controlled pieces, with full cleanup and haul-away.
Where a tree can be saved with pruning or treatment instead, we’ll tell you — removal is the last resort, not the default.
Most removals in the Wichita area run from about $400 for a small, easily accessed tree to $2,000 or more for a large one, and the biggest cottonwoods and silver maples over a house can run higher still. Price comes down to a handful of things: the height and trunk diameter, how badly the tree leans, how close it is to the house, fence, or power lines, and how much room a crew and equipment have to work. A dead, brittle tree or one that has to be roped down piece by piece over a roof takes more time and care than one that can be felled in the open. Call (316) 330-9524 for a free on-site quote.
Yes — that’s the bulk of our work in established Wichita neighborhoods, where decades-old shade trees now hang over roofs, fences, and service lines. Rather than felling a tree like that in one piece, we rope and rig the limbs and trunk down in controlled sections, lowering each piece so nothing hits the house, the fence, or the yard below. Where a tree is entangled with power lines we coordinate around the service, and for anything touching primary utility lines the utility has to de-energize or handle it first. It’s slower and more skilled than an open-lot drop, but it’s how the job gets done without damage.
Yes — storm and ice-damaged tree removal is one of our most common Wichita-area calls, and after a big system the hazardous work comes first: leaning trunks, limbs hung over the house, and trees down on structures or lines move to the front of the schedule. Kansas wind, ice, and the occasional derecho hit the fast-grown cottonwoods, silver maples, and elms here hardest, and a storm-damaged tree can be unstable and dangerous to approach. We rig and remove it safely, in controlled pieces where it's near a structure, and clean up. Call (316) 330-9524 as soon as it's safe.
