"On 9/5/2019, Mike Huffman with Huff’s Tree Service was out to our home to give us an estimate to remove from our backyard a birch tree, grind up the stump and haul off the stump grindings. We signed a contract with Mike for the job to be completed in January/February 2020. Mike informed us that on any job that he estimates, he is actually on the job site when the work is performed. On 2/7/2020, employees from Huff’s Tree Service were out to complete the job but Mike was not on the job site. Mike’s crew did a great job on cutting down the tree. However, when they were hauling the branches out through the side yard, the branches were too wide to fit between the house and the wood fence causing damage to the garage door jamb and casing and damage to the 6’9” double wide metal gate. When Mr. Tibbits brought this to an employee’s attention, Mr. Tibbits was asked by the employee to go back into the house because he was slowing them down. Mr. Tibbits let the employee know that he was bringing to their attention that they were damaging our home. Rather than cut down the branches to prevent further damage, they continued work in the same manner. When the job was completed, we were advised by one of the employees that he was the job foreman. We let the foreman know about the encounter with the employee and that the stump area was high and not ground level. We looked over the stump area with the foreman. The foreman informed us that he thought an AT&T flag was in an area on one side of the stump so they really did not want to dig out farther on that side. We let him know that the technician with USIC had just been out that morning and the technician informed us that the area had been cleared for AT&T and Evergy. We let the foreman know that we would take a shovel to the area the next day and if we could not dig because of any large roots, we would call them. We called Mike Huffman and advised him of the problems that we had with the job being completed. Mike did not offer an apology for the damage to the house and gate, the employee’s rude behavior, or him not being on the job site. On 2/82020, we sent Mike Huffman pictures of two areas where we had tried to dig but were unable to because of the tree trunk and large roots and asked that we get on the schedule to have his equipment back out to our home. On 2/10/2020, we contacted USIC and talked again to the technician and verified that he had marked the area clear for digging. Mike Huffman was out at our home in the afternoon with the grinder and completed the stump and root removal."

FAQs for tree service projects in Derby, KS

You might remove a tree for free if it’s small, easy to reach, and your city doesn’t require a permit. Call the planning or public works office first to be sure. If they give you the green light, follow all safety rules, wear protective gear, and ask a friend to spot you. When in doubt—or if the tree is tall—hire a pro instead.

In many cities, you’ll need a permit—sometimes even an arborist’s report—before cutting down a tree. Start by calling your local building or planning department. They’ll tell you whether the tree is protected, how big it can be before a permit kicks in, and whether the work has to be done by a licensed pro. Get written approval before scheduling the job to stay on the right side of local rules.

It’s best to leave healthy trees alone—they add shade, boost curb appeal, and support wildlife. Take one down only if it’s dead, diseased beyond saving, or posing a real safety risk. Check local rules first; many areas protect heritage or street trees. 

When removal seems necessary, bring in a licensed arborist for an on-site assessment and written recommendation before you book the crew.

If you’re torn between trimming, pruning, or full removal, start with an honest health check. Trim to shape the canopy or encourage new growth. Prune when you spot broken or diseased branches that could spread trouble. 

Plan on removal only if the trunk is hollow, several major limbs are dead, storm damage is extensive, or the tree leans dangerously toward a structure.

A tree that’s 15 to 20 feet from your home isn’t automatically a problem. Healthy, small species often coexist just fine with houses. Trouble starts when the trunk shows decay, roots crack the foundation, or overhanging branches threaten the roof. Bring in a licensed arborist for a close look and written recommendation before you decide to remove or simply prune.

Timing hinges on size and complexity. A small tree might be gone in a few hours, a mid-sized one in half a day, and a giant could keep the crew busy for one to two full workdays. Add extra time if you’re grinding the stump, hauling wood, or navigating tight spaces near power lines or fences.
