JR and his sons were great to work with. They were fast and careful removing two Maple trees from each side of our house. Price was fair and they scheduled the job quickly. Showed up on time and cleaned up all the wood chips from the Stump removal. Planning on using JR's again soon for other landscaping projects we have planned. read more

We paid JR to do a job back a year ago and he never completed his work. We are done waiting.

On showing up hour + late viewed work requested gave $ price which was fair but after giving estimated time to perform agreed service never heard from again even after leaving phone message. read more

My mother (a senior citizen) hired JR's Tree Service to cut down a pine tree in her front yard. After getting a fair estimate, my mother hired them for the job and mentioned that she had a 20% off coupon. The day of the job, JR's crew showed up, did the work, and asked for the full amount. When my mom gave them the coupon and asked for the discounted price, they said "you'll have to take that up with JR later, I don't know anything about that" and so my mom had to pay the original quoted price and gave his crew the coupon. She never received a receipt or invoice. My mother has been calling JR and leaving messages for the past 6 weeks with no returned calls. What's worse is that because my elderly father is in a nursing home, she has to show documentation to the state for any home improvements. Not only was she overcharged, she cannot even get proof that she paid for the service because they won't return her calls. It's a shame that businesses like JR's Tree Service takes advantage of their senior customers and won't even take 5 minutes to return a phone call or provide proof of payment. My mother had originally planned on using them again for other projects, but not now. They clearly do not care about their customers. read more

I have used jr's tree service in the past, although they are somewhat not professional, they did the job I wanted. I called for a estimate on a couple of trees. I could tell when he came he was not interested in the job, not easy enough I guess. He said I'll call you later today! Never heard from them!! I guess they are so big they don't need anymore money! I called someone else!!! No problem! read more

A worker came out quickly after the return call from the owner. The worker cut up a tree that had fallen down after some storms and tossed it into the woods on my property, no issues there. He also performed a "spring clean-up" by trimming some bushes and small trees, this is where the issues began. He barely trimmed the bushes and what he did trim made a mess in my planter bed that he did not clean up. I've called the office # and have left 2 messages. I called the worker's phone # on Friday (5-31-19) and he said that he'd stop by on Saturday (6-1-19) to trim the bushes and trees up further but he's been a no-show so far and my calls now go directly to his voicemail. I called the office # twice today (6-3-19) and the first time it just rang with no answer or machine picking up. The second try a little later was met with the receiver being picked up and then immediately hung up. I do NOT recommend this company and I'll post more if they ever make the situation right. read more

I am so happy I called JR's Lawn and Tree after hearing a plug for them on the radio. I needed a large elm removed that had died and was overhanging my home (and my brand new roof). I called and was immediately scheduled. I only had to wait a few days and they were out, removing the tree quickly and efficiently. It's hard to tell the tree was even there they cleaned up so well! I highly recommend JR's Lawn and Tree! Thank you for coming to my rescue! read more

Jason responded quickly to our request. The work was done promptly. Highly recommend.

Absolutely Horrible! JR came out and gave me a verbal estimate in the summer and asked me to call him in the Fall to schedule which I did as he did not want to trim my trees until the leaves came off. I called as requested and spoke to JR on three separate occasions where he stated he would call me back and never did. On the third discussion, he promised to call me over the weekend and stated he could probably have a crew on site on Monday to complete the work quoted. Come Tuesday, no call once again! After further review (which I am kicking myself for not doing first), I see that JR's Lawn and Tree has absolutely horrific reviews (check Angie's List, etc...). I would highly recommend, after my experience in addition to reviews, do not pick up the phone to call this company. I would rate this company a "0" but Yelp is making me rate at least one star to post. read more

Tree cutting was done on January 10, 2018. Trees and branches were mulched and large logs were hauled away. Late that afternoon we were called by the office and told that they would not be able to remove the stumps that day and we should hold back three hundred dollars to be paid when they returned to grind them. That was 1 year and 3 months ago! Dozens of phone calls and dozens of excuses later we are here with 18 sumps in our FRONT YARD and still no sign of them. We contacted some other services and got bids over $700 to complete the job. In my opinion they intentionally give you a quote for the entire job, but only intend to complete half of it. read more

DON'T MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE I MADE, GIVING THIS COMPANY YOUR BUSINESS. They have a history of taking money, leaving in the middle of a job, often claiming problems with equipment, and NEVER RETURNING. They then don't return phone calls, if you manage to get through by using another phone number as I am sure they identify with caller ID, they will lie and tell you they will get right back to you. Or they will tell you they are on their way over. See the reviews on Angie's List: https://www.angieslist.com/companylist/us/pa/pittsburgh/j-r%27s-lawn-and-tree-reviews-3054984.htm and the complaints on BBB and you will see the pattern of this awful behavior. I gave them the benefit of the doubt and a whole week to get back to me. Just call me to tell me what the plan is I said, nothing. So now I want to make sure EVERYONE I can reach knows how they operate their shady business, no pun intended!! read more

Get your quote in writing. Make sure that all equipment is on site especially the stump removal equipment. Do not pay until the quoted job is complete. If they ask for a check and tell you that they will return and remove the stump when the ground is dry do not fall for it. Our tree was cut down on May 22nd. It is August and the stump remains. I called three times and left messages to see when they would return to take out the stump. read more

Wow! I call them on the July 4th to leave a message. Can't believe they answer the phone took my order and had 3 big bushes removed by 10 am. Great job!! Thanks read more
