Premier Tree Services in Fox Chapel

We offer tree removal, tree trimming, stump grinding, emergency tree service, and tree debris hauling. You can view all of our services here.

A lot of our work involves estate-scale removals and pruning on heavily wooded acreage, with mature oaks, sugar maples, tulip poplars, beeches, and hemlocks. Beech leaf disease is moving through the area's understory and specimen beeches, and hemlock woolly adelgid is established along the Hemlock Hollow ravine. We also handle dead ash takedowns from emerald ash borer damage and frequent emergency tree service after ice and wind events.

Yes. The borough requires a tree removal permit through its online portal for work on private property, which is unusual among the surrounding communities. We handle the permit process as part of the project so you don't have to figure it out yourself. The borough's tight land-use controls also extend to subdivision and land development review, which we work around when planning the job.

The ravine that the renamed Hemlock Hollow Road follows holds significant eastern hemlock canopy, and hemlock woolly adelgid has been active there for years. Properties backing into that ravine often have hemlocks declining from the adelgid alongside beeches showing beech leaf disease. The U.S. Army Corps has a Flood Risk Management Plan for the watershed, and we plan rigging around the slope and water carefully.

Crane work is the norm here, not the exception. Estate properties on roads like Field Club, Delafield, and Powers Run often have long wooded driveways with limited turnaround for heavy equipment, and the slopes don't allow for staging in some places. We plan crane access, equipment paths, and rigging in advance, and we coordinate with the property owner on how the work fits the landscape. Heavy work always pairs with stump grinding cleanup.
