Our Services in Wichita, KS
Everything below runs off the same trailer with the same people. That is why we can take a tree down on Tuesday and grade the hole flat on Wednesday without a second contractor.
Tree Trimming
Large tree trimming on mature oaks, elms, cottonwoods and sycamores needs rigging and a climber rather than a pole saw from the ground, which is where a lot of cheap quotes come apart. Our tree trimming services cover ornamental and fruit trees too, and we time fruit tree work for late winter when the tree can take it. If you are comparing quotes on best tree pruning services in Wichita, ask each company one question: where are you making the cut? The answer tells you everything.
- Roofline, gutter and utility clearance
- Residential tree trimming services on a two to three year cycle
- Deadwood and post storm cleanup
- Ornamental, fruit and young tree structural pruning
Tree Removal
Professional tree removal in Wichita has one rule most homeowners do not know until we tell them: the tree in the strip between your sidewalk and the street is not yours. That right of way belongs to the City, and removal there needs approval from City Forestry at (774) 245-4538 first. We will tell you which side of that line your tree is on before you spend anything. Local tree removal also means we know which streets a chipper truck actually fits down, which sounds like a small thing until a crew from two hours away turns up and cannot get to the back yard.
- Hazardous, leaning and storm damaged tree removal services
- Dead, hollow and beetle killed trees
- Crane and bucket access on large removals
- Stump grinding and full debris haul off included
Dirt Work
Once a tree and its root plate come out, the ground is a problem. As a dirt work contractor we finish the job properly instead of leaving you a crater and a phone number for someone else. Our dirt work services fix the fall, not just the surface. We handle commercial dirt work as well: pads, laydown yards, access roads and drainage on build sites. A note on the paperwork, because it catches people out. Disturb an acre or more in Kansas and the project needs stormwater permit coverage and a SWPPP through KDHE. We will tell you when a job crosses that line rather than letting you find out from an inspector.
- Rough and finish grading
- Driveway and building pad prep
- Drainage correction, swales and positive fall away from the foundation
- Trenching, backfill and compaction
- Commercial dirt work services for contractors and property managers
Land Clearing
Hedge rows, volunteer cedar, scrub elm, brush, and whatever else grew in while nobody was watching. We run residential land clearing services on overgrown lots and fence lines, and commercial land clearing on build sites and pasture reclamation. There are two ways to do it and they cost different money. Mulching in place with a skid steer head leaves you a chip mat and no haul off bill. Grubbing and hauling gives you clean dirt ready to build on. We will tell you which one your project actually needs, and it is usually the cheaper one.
- Lot clearing for new builds, additions and shops
- Fence line, hedge row and pasture clearing
- Brush mulching and tree clearing services
- Professional land clearing with burn management or full haul off
- Land clearing services priced by the acre or by the day
What a neglected tree actually costs you in Wichita
Wichita trees fail in predictable ways. Knowing which failure you are looking at is the difference between a Saturday morning prune and a claim on your homeowners policy.
The species that split first
Silver maples and Bradford pears carry included bark in the fork. The first real ice storm opens that seam and takes half the canopy with it.
The ash you have already lost
Green ash with D shaped exit holes is usually dead within three to five years of emerald ash borer arriving. A dead ash goes brittle fast, which is why a tree removal company charges more once it has been standing dead a season.
The trim that was never a removal
Half the trees people ask us to take down do not need to come down. Yellow leaves on a pin oak are iron chlorosis from our alkaline soil, not death. Residential tree trimming services solve more of these calls than removals do.
What is included that other quotes bill separately
Stump Grinding
Six to twelve inches below grade so you can sod, plant or pour. Chips backfilled or hauled, your call.
Storm & Emergency Work
Same day for a tree on a roof. Tree trimming removal, tarping and access clearing, then photos for your insurance file.
Full Cleanup & Haul Off
Chipped, raked, drive blown clean, ruts filled. Written into our tree trimming services and clearing quotes, not added after.
Property Protection
Plywood over soft ground, drop cloths on beds, rigging near structures. Included in dirt work services, land clearing services and tree clearing services alike.

What Wichita homeowners say about our tree removal company
Tree, clearing and dirt work FAQs
A 30-foot pear in an open backyard is a different job from an 80-foot cottonwood wedged between two houses. Estimates are free, and in writing, so you will know the number before anyone starts a saw.
Yes, and it is quoted with the removal rather than sold to you afterward. We grind six to twelve inches below grade. If you are planning to pour a slab or plant a new tree in the same hole, say so up front, because that changes how deep we go.
Same day for anything on a roof, across a driveway, or hanging over a house. Call rather than use the form. After a bad ice storm or a night of straight line winds, every crew in Sedgwick County is committed by mid morning, so the earlier you ring the sooner we reach you.
Plywood goes over soft ground, drop cloths go on beds, and anything within reach of a structure gets rigged down in sections instead of dropped. We carry general liability and workers compensation and we will send the certificate before we start. Ask every company you call for theirs. The ones who hesitate are telling you something.
Both, with the same crew. We do commercial land clearing on build sites and pasture, residential clearing on overgrown lots and fence lines, and we stay on as your dirt work contractor for the grading, pad prep and drainage once the ground is open. Hiring one outfit for both is normally cheaper than paying a tree company and an excavation company to work around each other's schedules.
