Have a stump another company can’t get to? Call Wichita Tree Service. We can handle it.
Tree Removal Is Sometimes Necessary
While removal is often a last resort, it’s sometimes necessary when:
- A tree is dead or dying
- A tree is in the way of construction
- A tree is damaged from wind or ice storms
If you're removing a tree, we recommend removing the stump as well. If we remove the tree, we’ll discount the stump grinding—

How to Choose the Right Tree Removal Company in Wichita
Tree removal is not a job for amateurs. It’s dangerous, technical work, and a mistake can cost thousands—or worse, result in injury. Here’s what to look for when hiring a professional:
Must-Haves
✅ Insurance – Why It Matters & What We Carry
Tree removal is dangerous, and even experienced crews can have accidents. That’s why insurance is non-negotiable. At a minimum, a company should carry $300,000 in general liability and active workers’ comp. Many companies cut corners here—especially on workers’ comp, which is expensive.
Some will say they're insured but only have general liability, which doesn't protect you if a worker gets hurt on your property.
We’ve seen it all in Wichita—trees dropped on homes, damaged fences, botched jobs by DIYers. We’re often called in to clean up the mess. Our first question is always: “What did you break?” One homeowner even pointed to their neighbor’s house, where their tree crashed through the roof, destroyed siding, and broke windows.

✅ Certified Arborists
As Wichita’s only Board-Certified Master Arborist, I know a thing or two about trees. Knowing what I know now, I would never hire a company without a certified arborist on staff. Many local companies offer tree removal, but only a few have ISA or Kansas-certified arborists. Those are the companies I’d trust with my own trees.
✅ Safety Equipment
Do they use safety gear? That’s non-negotiable for us.
Forestry helmets are a must—they protect from falling limbs, loud chainsaws, and debris in your eyes. A log dropped from just 20 feet can be fatal. Our employees always wear full protective gear, and you'll see that in all of our photos.

Avoid These Mistakes
- ❌ Don’t hire someone just because they knocked on your door. Many of these pop-up crews don’t know what they’re doing, may not be insured, and often damage trees and property.
- ❌ Don’t always go with the cheapest bid. That’s often a sign they’re uninsured or unskilled. Worse, some companies bid low then raise the price after the job, citing “unexpected difficulties.”
