"We had a very large elm tree die this past winter. I got quotes from four reputable companies, and Hellmann's responded first and was the lowest, with the others 5 - 23 % higher. I selected Hellmann's on May 6, and they took down the tree on May 15 as scheduled. I was very impressed by how efficiently Ray and his crew worked. They were extremely safety conscious and careful to not damage an adjacent tree and the deck that they were working beside. All four men were always busy, and they did an amazing job of cleaning up the entire work area. I highly recommend them."

"I would highly recommend this company. They came to give me a reasonable estimate shortly after being contacted. They arrived the day that was scheduled with 4 men and did an excellent job trimming these large pine trees especially having to maneuver around power and phone lines. The grounds were cleaned up nicely from debris afterwards."

"Excellent! They arrived on time, worked steadily, cleaned up thoroughly, accomplishing everything that was asked of them. For instance, one tree that had to be taken down was a dying 80+ foot spruce located within six feet of a spindly oak sapling. I asked them to be careful of the sapling as I wanted it to fill in the canopy left by the spruce. After the tree came down and was carted away, I looked closely at the oak for possible damage which I felt sure there would be. To my surprise, the oak was untouched, not a scratch or broken branch. This is a company of surgeons! I have more work to be done, so I'll be sure to ask them back. They're great!"

"Affordable Tree Removers (John & Katie) were OUTSTANDING! John does everything manually, climbing the trees as he trims. A very hard job. Katie was promptly cleaning up as the trimming went on. John did exactly what I asked him to do. The clean up was remarkable, nothing left unnoticed! I have been bragging about them all morning to our neighbors, and friends at church! I would definitely hire them again. I’m even handing out their advertising brochures! Thanks Affordable Tree Removers! Bill and Ann Flanigan"

"BJ Tree was very good. I had a large branch hanging up in a Silver Maple. I called them, and they arranged a time to come out to do an estimate. They were very reasonable and did not try to up sell like other tree companies did,"

"This is the second time we have hired Horhut Tree Experts and we will happily hire them again the next time we need tree work. They removed 3 large trees, 3 medium-sized trees, and various shrubs, and also ground out the stumps. They do a professional and thorough job every time."

FAQs for tree service projects in Pittsburgh, PA

Professionals remove shrubs by first cutting back the branches using tools like pruning shears or chainsaws for thicker stems. They then cut the base close to the ground and dig around the root system to remove the roots completely, preventing regrowth. Finally, they’ll ensure proper disposal of branches and debris while complying with local regulations.

A bush stump will regrow if any portion of its root system remains. When even a small section of roots is left behind, new shoots emerge and regenerate the bush with leggy, spreading growth. Working with a professional landscaper ensures the complete removal of the stump and all roots, which is essential to prevent any regrowth, ensuring that the area remains clear and maintenance is minimized.
