After part of our large maple tree came down during the April storm, we knew it was time to have it removed. Tree removal can be incredibly expensive, so we made sure to get several quotes. Ray stood out right away--he was quick to respond and by far the most reasonably priced. Ray and his team were fast, efficient, and thorough with the cleanup. Given the size of the tree, they had to access both of our neighbors' yards, and they left everything spotless--not just our yard, but our neighbors' too. I can't speak highly enough about Ray and his team. They were truly phenomenal. 10/10 recommend! read more

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. read more

I've never been so excited about tree removal. Truly, having no previous experience with this type of business, I can't imagine there's a better option out there. Sadly, we had to remove 4 huge spruce trees recently to a regional blight. Ray came out to quickly to check it out and quoted the best price of the FOUR other companies we researched. As soon as the weather broke, his team was on site, and removed the trees with relative ease. They also cleaned the entire area with great detail and even cut down some of the wood for use in our fire pit. I hope to never need tree removal again, but if I do, I'm calling Hellman's for sure. read more

HIGHLY RECOMMEND THESE GUYS! Had one of the best quotes and Ray came out fast to take down a huge oak tree! Thanks again from the Griffins!!! read more

I've been dealing with a lot of not so great home service providers lately, so it was a breath of fresh air to have such prompt, friendly and quick service. I called and within a few hours they called back and gave me the quote on a pretty tall, but skinny tree (forgive me because I have no clue what the official title of the tree was called). Without stump removal, it was $350. Not cheap, but not overly expensive either. Once he gave me the estimate, we were able to schedule him to come the next day. Ray, who is the owner, gave me a call before he came... like he said he would. Came to the house... exactly when he said he would, then charged me exactly what he quoted me. Seriously, people are so shady, this was nice to get such great service. Highly recommended for all your tree cutting desires! Sidenote: I love greenery and trees, but when you have a tree hanging over your new porch that's half dead and have birds sitting on it pooping on you while you're trying to enjoy your deck wine, the tree has gotsta go! read more

I Would highly recommend. He trimmed my trees better than I thought they would look. Great work , nice employees, and On time. I will be using him again. read more

Wouldn't use anyone else! Some friends researched other companies, and Ray was by FAR the least expensive option. Called him on Monday, he came to look on Tuesday, and the crew was here Wednesday. No fuss, no muss. Great price to remove a big mulberry tree and haul away a bunch of brush. I'll gladly recommend these guys to anybody! read more

Ray was prompt, professional, and great with pricing. He and his team completed the job of removing a dead maple tree faster and and cleaner than I even imagined. I highly recommend this company! read more

I contacted Ray in mid February 2018 so I could have 3 trees dropped on the property BEFORE all the new spring growth. Ray showed up quickly and gave me a quote of $650. He was working one job and said he'd be able to do the work during the first week of April. He actually showed up a week early during a rainy day. Good news right? Nope. He never checked in with me upon arrival and the next thing I hear is a chainsaw. I look out my back door and see two guys cutting down a tree, problem is it's the wrong tree! I did approach Ray and told him so but the tree was too far gone and he dropped it. No problem. I can accept that. I then showed Ray the trees for the second time. He said we're going to come back because of rain. Understood. As of today, April 28th I never heard from Ray again. Now looking for a new service. read more

Doesn't return calls or emails and is unprofessional. He removed the tree but was late grinding the stump, which I communicated from the beginning I needed done in order to lay a foundation for my retaining wall. Not only was he late and didn't communicate when he could come back, he didn't grind it deep enough so we had to pay extra for someone else to come out and finish the job. Below are the email communications with dates and times. You can see that from the project start the timeline was in place and Ray knew I needed the stump removed before the retaining wall foundation could be laid. I told him on Wednesday, June 3 that the wall was going to be removed in the next couple of days and asked how much lead time he needed. I got no response. He did not return any of our calls when we were trying to get him to come out and grind the stump. He didn't respond with a date until June 11 and didn't come out until June 14. If he would have told me he couldn't meet my timeline I could have gotten someone else to do it. I had to hire someone else anyway because he couldn't even grind the stump deep enough for my walls foundation, which would have been nice to know before committing to the project. His price is fair, he does quick work, but he is unprofessional in my opinion and it cost us time and money. On May 6, 2020, at 8:45 AM Me: - - When will you be able to take the tree down and how long does it take? I want to get a timeline so I can work with Johnny Sheerer Landscaping on the retaining wall removal. Once he removes the retaining wall, how long will it take you to remove the stump? On Wed, May 6, 2020 at 9:13 AM Ray: - - we can do the tree in the next week or two it will only take one day then when he gets that retaining wall out it will take a few hours to get the stump out. On May 6, 2020, at 10:16 AM Me: - - What do you need to set a firm date on the tree removal? - If the fence is down and the wall is removed, can the machine come in through my property if they decline to give us access? On May 6, 2020, at 7:46 PM Ray: - - I require the estimate to be signed and sent back with a $50.00 deposit. We are going by the weather right now. within the next week or so. Our stump grinder will not hurt the neighbors lawn but I would ask them if we can get in there to grind the stump. We will have to clean up debris from the tree being removed. So let them know we will have to be in the yard. On Wed, Jun 3, 2020 at 10:42 AM Me: - - Thanks again for the tree removal. - Assuming good weather the wall should be removed on Thursday or Friday this week and be out of the way of the tree stump. How much lead time do you need to come back in and grind the stump? On Jun 9, 2020, at 2:51 PM Me: - - My wife left a message with you earlier but I wanted to follow up on our email chain. The wall has been dug up and the guys left you a ramp to the tree stump. Is it possible to get this ground down tomorrow? I know it's short notice but the sooner we get the stump out the sooner they can build the wall. On Jun 9, 2020, at 6:07 PM Ray: - - Hi Nathan, I will try and get there this week. On Wed, Jun 10, 2020 at 9:23 AM Me: - - The wall guys asked if you had a date that you were coming out and I told them the next couple of days but they can't dig the wall trench until that stump is removed. They have the backhoe onsite right now but need it for other jobs as well. Is there anyway you can fit us in tomorrow morning so they can finishing the digging process and remove the backhoe? On Jun 11, 2020, at 2:41 PM Me: - - I just heard from the guy digging our wall trench and he said he has to be out by tomorrow. I'm sorry for the urgency but the retaining wall project relies on that stump being removed. Are you able to grind the stump tomorrow so they can finish digging the base? On Jun 11, 2020, at 5:47 PM Ray: - - sorry Nathan I won't be able to do the stump till Saturday or Sunday. read more

Thanks for your 100% response time. A follow up call for a Monday that never happened. 0% on your follow up. No call when you said you would. You lose a customer Ray. read more

Hellmann's Tree Service was wonderful and about as easy as you could hope for. All the good tree services are busy, so I know it's hard to get on a schedule but Ray did come out and gave me a solid fair estimate right away and when his schedule allowed for my non-emergency situation the work was done. The crew was on time, thorough, and cleanup was terrific. I'm very happy with the job they did and would not hesitate to recommend them. read more

We hired Hellmann's TreeService to remove a 60-ft Spruce tree and grind down a stump in our yard. The crew showed up at our house on time. The job was done in one day, in a timely manner. They were efficient, competent and professional. They hauled away the debris, ground up the stump and cleaned up the area! We are very impressed with the high quality of the work. It was top notch. We will definitely hire this company again and give them best recommendations. Thank you, Ray! read more

Really outstanding service, timely quick. We would not hesitate to use these folks again.

I used these folks to remove branches from a tree in my back yard. They did an excellent job!! Everything was left neat and clean, they even went so far as to clean the street. I highly recommend them. read more

Hellmann's Tree Service - Tree Services Near Me - McKees Rocks, Pennsylvania

Easily the best tree service in Pittsburgh. I needed a 30ft pine tree removed and, where most other services didn't want the job because it was too small, Hellman's Tree Service was more than willing to help. I left them a voicemail and they got back to me the next day with a very reasonable quote. They came out about a week or two later and had the tree cut down in only a few hours with no mess. Overall, very professional, prompt, and reasonably priced. Call these guys first. read more

Would highly recommend them. They've done two jobs for me and both were done so expertly and quickly. If you need tree work done hire these gentlemen you will not regret it. read more
