Tree Work We Do Around Shawnee
Safe Tree Removal
When a tree in Shawnee has to come out, my crew and I get it down safe, whether it is a dead one leaning toward the house or a storm-split trunk over your driveway. We work clean, protect what is around it, and haul off every piece.
Older trees are reaching the age where limbs fail, and new builds see trees decline after construction. We section them down and clean up completely.
Pruning That Keeps Trees Healthy
Regular trimming keeps trees healthy and storm-ready, with proper cuts that never top the tree.
A trim every few years catches weak limbs before they fail.
When a Storm Drops a Tree
Shawnee’s dense tree cover means big damage when severe weather hits. Our emergency crews work around the clock, removing trees from roofs, clearing driveways, and making your property safe.
Shawnee’s extensive tree canopy is a double-edged sword during severe weather. More trees mean more targets for wind, ice, and lightning, and more potential for damage to homes, vehicles, and infrastructure.
Getting Rid of Old Stumps
After a removal we can grind the stump out too, so you are not left with a trip hazard or something sprouting back. We grind it well below grade, rake out the chips, and leave your Shawnee yard flat and clean enough to seed grass or plant over.
Grindings raked up and the spot left level.
Here's What You Can Count On
- Trimming, pruning, removal and stump grinding
- Homes, HOAs and businesses
- Modern equipment, clean job sites
- Honest advice and fair prices
From Tree Climber to Owner: Meet Zach Johnson
If you have a tree in Shawnee you are worried about, you are in the right place. I am Zach Johnson. I started out climbing trees back in 1990, and I started this company in 2011 on one rule: honest tree work at a fair price. My crew and I handle the jobs other companies tip-toe around, from a tight backyard removal off Nieman Road to a storm-split tree hanging over Johnson Drive. We are owner-operated, I still bid most jobs myself, and you get a straight answer, not a sales pitch.

We've Already Seen It on Your Block
From ice-split limbs to dead ash trees, we have handled it all in Shawnee. You get an honest look and a fair price.
Shawnee Neighborhoods We Serve
No two parts of Shawnee are the same. In Old Shawnee and the downtown core near Nieman Road and Johnson Drive, we work mature yards with big trees close to the house, so we take our time and rope things down piece by piece. Out toward Monticello, K-7, and Midland Drive, the lots are newer and more open, and we can usually get equipment in and finish fast. Along the Mill Creek and Turkey Creek corridors and out by Shawnee Mission Park, we handle a lot of storm cleanup and limbs over fences.
We'd Rather Save Your Tree Than Sell You a Removal
We would rather keep your tree standing than talk you into taking it out. We are family owned, and when you call you get a real person, usually me.

Your Tree Care Questions, Answered
In Shawnee, most tree removals run about $300 to $3,500. A small tree under 30 feet is usually $300 to $800, a medium tree runs $800 to $1,800, and a big tree close to your house or power lines can hit $1,800 to $3,500.
For a tree on your own residential property, Shawnee does not require a permit. Trees in the city right-of-way, a drainage easement, or a green space can need city approval, and some subdivision HOAs have their own rules.
Around Shawnee, emerald ash borer is the big one. It has killed ash trees all over Johnson County, and a dead ash gets brittle and dangerous fast.
