Douglas County, Kansas
Tree Service in Lawrence, KS
Old West Lawrence and the blocks around the university carry some of the oldest street trees in Douglas County, which means big silver maples and pin oaks growing within a few feet of century-old foundations and overhead service lines. Access is the constraint on most of these jobs, not the tree.

What you can hold us to
Four things we put in writing
We are new to Google, so we are not going to point at a review count we have not earned yet. These are the commitments that show up on every quote instead.
-
The quote is the price
The number you sign is the number you pay. If we find something once the work starts, we stop and talk to you before anything changes.
-
Your property gets protected
Plywood and mats over turf, drop zones planned around what is underneath, and we reschedule instead of rutting a wet lawn.
-
We leave it clean
Chips, limbs, and rounds go with us. The work area gets raked and blown down before the truck leaves.
-
A certified arborist writes the quote
Not a salesperson. The person who tells you the tree has to come out is the person qualified to know.

Lawrence tree service questions
Do you actually work in Lawrence?
Lawrence is home base. Our yard is here, so this is where we get to fastest and where most of our crews start the day.
What kinds of trees do you deal with in Lawrence?
Mostly Silver maple, Pin oak, Bur oak, Hackberry, Green ash, and american elm. Old West Lawrence and the blocks around the university carry some of the oldest street trees in Douglas County, which means big silver maples and pin oaks growing within a few feet of century-old foundations and overhead service lines. Access is the constraint on most of these jobs, not the tree.
Do I need a permit to remove a tree in Lawrence?
Lawrence City Code §18-111 puts the duty on you: every owner shall remove dead, diseased, or dangerous trees that are a menace to the community. After notice the city allows five days, then it can do the work and bill you. Street trees and right of way vegetation are city-managed, and branches must clear eight feet over a sidewalk. Lawrence also licenses tree companies under §18-201, so ask any bidder for their city license number.
How fast can you get to Lawrence after a storm?
After a widespread wind or ice event every crew in Douglas County is booked within hours, so we triage by hazard. Trees on houses and blocked driveways come first. Call and we will give you a real window rather than a hopeful one.
Is the estimate free?
Yes, and you do not need to be home. We walk the property, take measurements, and send the written quote the same day.
