Tree
Removal
Safe, efficient removal of dangerous, dead, or unwanted trees of all sizes — including the high-risk takedowns other companies pass on.
When others pass, give us a call.

If it's sketchy, we want it.
Two Trucks.
One Massive Tree.
Zero Hesitation.
This is what it looks like when Kohnen's shows up. Full crew, multiple bucket trucks, and the skill to dismantle trees other companies won't touch — section by section, from the top down.
No Tree Is Too
Difficult
High-Risk & Hazardous Removals
Dead, dying, or structurally compromised trees that could fail at any moment. Trees leaning on structures, tangled in power lines, or wedged in tight spaces with no room for error. These are the jobs we specialize in — the ones other companies walk away from. We safely dismantle them before they become an emergency.
Storm-Damaged Trees
Split trunks, hanging limbs, trees on roofs — Kansas storms don't wait, and neither do we. Our 24/7 emergency tree response includes full insurance direct billing, so there are no out-of-pocket costs for covered storm damage. We handle the cleanup, the paperwork, and the adjuster communication.
Near-Structure & Power Line Removal
Trees touching garages, fences, and rooflines. Trees growing into or near power lines. These high-stakes removals require precision rigging and specialized climbing techniques — ensuring zero damage to surrounding property and safe clearance from electrical infrastructure.
Large-Scale & Multi-Tree Projects
Clearing multiple trees for construction, landscaping, or property development. We bring the full crew and heavy equipment — including our grapple truck — to handle projects of any scale efficiently, leaving the site clean and ready for your next step.
How a Tree Removal
Works
Every job follows a proven process — no shortcuts, no surprises.
On-Site Assessment
Joe visits your property in person to evaluate the tree, surrounding obstacles (power lines, structures, fences), access points, and any unique challenges. You'll get a detailed estimate with a clear explanation of the approach.
Strategic Rigging & Climbing
Using professional rigging systems, Joe and the team work the tree from top to bottom — carefully lowering sections in a controlled sequence. No crashing limbs, no property damage.
Trunk Takedown
Once limbs are cleared, the trunk is sectioned and brought down safely. For trees with limited space, we use precise directional felling or continue the controlled rigging process.
Complete Cleanup
Every branch, every chip, every piece of debris — removed. Your property is left cleaner than we found it. Optional stump grinding available to finish the job completely.
