The whole truck
Every tree service we run out of Pittsburgh
Eighty-six jobs, one crew, no subcontracted mystery vans. Everything below is done by the same climbers with the same professional equipment and the same one-and-done standard, across Pittsburgh and the whole North Hills.
Removal
Large Tree Removal
The specialty. Eighty-footers over roofs, dead giants nobody else will climb, crane picks and rigging plans. If the tree scares other crews, start here.
Tree Removal
The standard takedown, done clean in a day: dead, diseased, storm-beaten, or simply in the way. Wood gone, lawn raked, sky where the tree was.
Emergency Tree Removal
The takedown under pressure: a compromised tree removed fast, worst weight first, without making the situation worse.
Hazardous Tree Removal
Defect-driven removals: cavities, included bark, lifted root plates. We rig away from the failure, never through it.
Dead Tree Removal
Dead wood runs on a brittleness clock. We read how far gone it is and pick climb, bucket, or crane accordingly.
Small Tree Removal
The under-thirty-footers: tired ornamentals, volunteers, wrong-tree-wrong-spot. Batched into one clean visit.
Fallen Tree Removal
Already on the ground is not already safe. Tension, compression, and root balls that stand back up. We handle all three.
Storm-Damaged Tree Removal
The tree that took the hit but still stands. We call save-or-remove honestly, then work it like every union has failed.
Crane-Assisted Tree Removal
Pieces fly instead of fall: pick math, choker work, and whole sections lifted over the house onto the truck.
Difficult Access Tree Removal
No gate, no machine path, no problem. Climb, rig, highline, and hand-carry until the tree is gone and the lawn isn’t.
Residential Tree Removal
Removal the way a homeowner experiences it: protected lawns, moved cars, named faces, and a walk-together at the end.
Emergency
Emergency Tree Service
24/7 storm response. Trees on houses, split trunks, limbs on lines. We stabilize first, document for insurance, and get the weight off your home.
Storm Damage Cleanup
The days-after service: hangers pulled out of the canopy, spring-loaded limbs handled safely, the whole yard chipped, hauled, and made whole.
Emergency Storm Cleanup
The first pass after the storm: hangers down, driveways open, dangerous weight off structures, order restored.
Emergency Limb Removal
One broken limb over a roof, a wire, or a doorway. Small job, real urgency, gone the right way.
Storm Debris Cleanup
After the emergency comes the mess. Brush, limbs, and downed wood chipped, hauled, and raked out of your life.
Insurance Claim Assistance
Photos, written scope, and documentation your adjuster can use. We speak claim, so you don’t have to translate.
Care
Tree Pruning
Health and structure work: deadwood out, crowns thinned, weak unions corrected, timed to the dormant season Pennsylvania hardwoods want.
Tree Trimming
Clearance and appearance: branches off the roofline, away from the service drop, hedges cut so straight you’ll check them with a level.
Crown Reduction
The whole crown brought down in size with proper cuts, not topping. The tree keeps its shape and its health.
Crown Thinning
Selective interior cuts so light and wind move through the canopy instead of hitting it like a sail.
Crown Raising
Bottom limbs up: clearance over lawns, drives, and sightlines without touching the crown’s top half.
Canopy Shaping
Aesthetic structure for trees that anchor a yard: balanced silhouettes, corrected lean lines, deliberate form.
Structural Pruning
Young-tree architecture: one leader, sound unions, and a form that never becomes a removal later.
Deadwood Removal
Dead limbs out of live crowns before gravity schedules it. The cheapest insurance a big tree offers.
Fruit Tree Pruning
Apples, pears, cherries: pruned for fruit and strength on the schedule the species demands.
Ornamental Tree Pruning
Japanese maples, dogwoods, weeping specimens: scalpel work for the trees planted to be looked at.
Residential Tree Trimming
House-side trimming: crowns off shingles, branches off gutters, service drops cleared, appearance kept.
Shrub Trimming
Foundation shrubs cut to shape and health, not sheared into meatballs unless meatballs are the assignment.
Hedge Trimming
Straight lines you can sight down, faces cut so the hedge stays green to the base, tops level to the eye.
Seasonal Tree Care
A spring and fall rhythm for the whole property: inspection, cleanup, pruning where the season calls for it.
Property Tree Maintenance
The standing arrangement: your trees on our calendar so nothing gets big, dead, or dangerous unnoticed.
Health
Tree Health
Assessments that read what the tree is telling you: crown dieback, fungal fruiting, root-zone trouble, and a plan before it becomes a removal.
Tree Disease Treatment
Oak wilt timing, lanternfly pressure, ash borer aftermath, browning spruce. Honest triage on what gets treated and what’s already decided.
Arborist Services
Risk evaluations, written assessments for home sales and insurance, second opinions on removals other companies condemned, EHAP-certified line-adjacent work.
Tree Inspections
A trained set of eyes on a specific worry: documented findings, straight verdicts, no invented work.
Disease Diagnosis
Name the problem before treating it: leaf, bark, and root symptoms read against Western PA’s usual suspects.
Pest Treatment
Borers, scale, mites and the rest, managed with timing and targeted treatment, not blanket spraying.
Insect Treatment
Active infestations knocked down and the conditions that invited them corrected so they don’t return.
Deep Root Fertilization
Nutrients delivered at root depth for trees fighting compacted Pittsburgh clay and urban soil.
Tree Preservation
The save-this-tree service: soil work, structural support, and care plans for trees worth every effort.
Tree Growth Management
Growth steered on purpose: slower where it threatens, encouraged where it’s wanted, planned years out.
Tree Cabling
High-crown cable systems that keep a structurally suspect giant from tearing itself apart in wind, buying good trees decades.
Tree Bracing
Steel rods through split or weakening unions low in the tree, usually paired with cables above, for the fork that started to let go.
Groundwork
Land Clearing
Overgrown acreage taken back to open ground: brush, vines, scrub trees and the fence line you forgot you owned, cleared for whatever comes next.
Lot Clearing
Buildable parcels cleared pin to pin: trees, stumps and brush gone, debris hauled, the lot ready for the builder’s first day instead of his third week.
Brush Clearing
The overgrown corner, the bramble bank, the fence the honeysuckle swallowed. Hand crews and the chipper, scrub gone, keepers kept.
Forestry Mulching
One machine grinds brush and small trees in place into a mulch blanket. No burn piles, no hauling, no bare mud on a hillside.
Stump Grinding
The stump ground below grade so the lawn forgets the tree existed. Chips stay as backfill or leave on the truck, your call.
Stump Removal
Full excavation when the spot has a future: stump and root ball out entirely, hole backfilled, ready for the driveway, the addition, or the pool.
Root Removal
Invasive and surface roots out of lawns, lines, and foundations without butchering the tree that grew them.
Surface Root Grinding
Trip-hazard roots ground below turf level so the mower and your ankles stop finding them.
Stump Excavation
The full digout: stump and root mass extracted when the spot has a foundation, pool, or slab in its future.
Stump Hole Filling
The crater closed properly: backfilled, compacted, and finish-graded so the lawn heals flat.
Site Preparation
Trees, stumps, and brush off the footprint so the builder’s first day is the builder’s, not ours.
Construction Site Clearing
Working clearances for excavators and trades: protection for keeper trees, removal of everything else.
Vegetation Management
The ongoing fight against regrowth on banks, fence lines, and easements, on a schedule that wins.
Right-of-Way Clearing
Lanes, easements, and access corridors opened and kept open to spec.
Underbrush Clearing
The understory tangle out, the canopy kept: walkable woods instead of a green wall.
Debris
Brush Removal
The overgrown corner, the bramble bank, the pile that never left. Cut, hauled, gone.
Brush Chipping
Your cut brush fed through our chipper: piles into mulch or into the truck in an afternoon.
Wood Chipping
Logs and limbs chipped on site. Keep the chips for beds and paths or wave them goodbye.
Debris Hauling
Loaded, hauled, and disposed: yard debris off the property without a dumpster in your driveway.
Yard Cleanup
The whole-yard reset: sticks, brush, leaves, and leftovers from storms or seasons, out in one visit.
Leaf Removal
Fall’s paperwork handled: leaves off lawns and beds before they smother the grass under snow.
Bush Removal
Overgrown or dying bushes out by the root so the bed is ready for whatever’s next.

HOAs, apartments, office parks and municipalities: documented maintenance, certificates of insurance, off-hours scheduling, one point of contact.

Campus trees kept safe over walks, signs, and parking without disrupting the business day.

Storefront visibility, lot-light clearance, and liability limbs handled before open hours.

Safety

Power Line Tree Trimming
Line-adjacent trimming with proper approach distances. When it’s the utility’s side, we say so.

Defensible space around structures: ladder fuels down, crowns separated, risk lowered.
Tree Risk Assessments
Target, defect, likelihood: the documented evaluation that tells you what a tree actually threatens.
Hazard Tree Evaluations
A specific scary tree, evaluated in writing: what’s wrong, how urgent, and what fixing it takes.
More
Tree Planting
The right species in the right spot, planted at the right depth, so nobody removes it in thirty years.
Tree Transplanting
Established trees moved alive: root-pruned, dug, and reset with aftercare that takes.
Firewood Sales
Seasoned hardwood from real Pittsburgh removals, cut and split for the stove.
Mulch Production
Chips from our own jobs, ground into mulch for your beds instead of a landfill.
Wood Hauling
Cut wood you already have, loaded and gone: storm leftovers, DIY aftermath, inherited log piles.
Tree Inventory
Every tree on the property cataloged: species, size, condition, and priority, in one usable document.
Tree Mapping
Your inventory placed on a site map so planning, budgeting, and contractors all point at the same tree.
Not sure which one your tree needs? That’s normal, and it’s exactly what the walk-around is for. Chris reads the tree, tells you the truth about it, and you get an up-front number in writing either way. The gallery shows what each of these looks like in a real yard, and the contact page is where the walk-around gets booked.
One call covers all eighty-six
Describe the tree, send photos if you have them, and we’ll bring the right service to the right yard the first time.
