Tree Trimming and Removal Stump Removal Landscape Design and Maintenance Chemical Applications Total Yard Care I got into the Tree Trimming and Landscaping Business due to the over pricing from the companies in our area. Through High School and College, I have 6 years of experience in these areas and looking to provide reasonable prices for quality work. I enjoy working outdoors and have 4 kids who are nearing the age of wanting to work as well. I have also partnered with a professsional tree climber on larger/more difficult projects to ensure the job is done right. I have up 4 adults and 4 high school kids who work for me depending on when it works for their schedules.

"I had the pleasure of working with Jordan at Alpha Services for the removal of two trees from my property, and I couldn’t be more impressed! From start to finish, Jordan was professional, efficient, and truly knew his stuff. The job was completed quickly and safely, and he took great care in ensuring everything was cleaned up afterward. The trees were removed without any issues, and the whole process went smoothly. I’ll definitely be using Alpha Services again for any future landscaping care needs. Highly recommend Jordan and his team for anyone looking for reliable, quality service!"

"A large cottonwood tree had fallen between our yard and the neighbors. Our neighbor had used this service before and they responded quickly to his inquiry. Several services that we had used previously failed to respond even over a week later. KC tree services did such a fine job with removing the cottonwood that we inquired about them also trimming three large walnuts in our backyard that we had been looking to have trimmed. Initially they were going to come back later in the week but instead they were able to extend their day and finish that up also the same day. They did a great job of trimming the tees by taking the the weight off certain areas and removing dead branches. They were interactive with us when trimming to ensure that they met our goals and cleaned up well afterwards. Since we have had much trimming and trees taken down over the years we knew they were price competitive and did good work. We highly recommend their services."

FAQs for tree service projects in Kansas City, 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.
