Home Services reviews in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

I can not give Local Roots enough stars for how amazing their work is! We went from being embarrassed by the front of our home…to proud and wanting everyone to see it!!! We had a deck from the previous owners that was falling apart, not to code, and just dangerous. Local Roots transformed our front yard/walkway into a beautiful “castle” as we call it!! We could not be more happy! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for all of your hard work and dedication!!! We HIGHLY recommend this company! Check them out! You will not be disappointed! Before and after photos posted!

Kenneth and his crew went above and beyond to satisfy the requests we had for our backyard hardscape. Professional from beginning to end! Greg and his team did masterful paving work - clean lines, improved the grades and left our place looking great! We will enjoy our yard for years to come.... These guys are top notch and I will hire them again!

I found Local Roots Landscaping through a neighbor who had some excavation work done. I needed a significant amount of fill removed from a construction project in our yard. The work was done quickly and turned out just as expected! Zach is friendly and helpful, even offering insightful advice as my backyard project is far from over. Patrick is very responsive to emails and the crew showed up on time as weather permitted. Highly recommended!

I highly recommend Local Roots. Throughout our project which included a retaining wall replacement, patio extension, walkway install, and large landscaping work with all new shrubs and edging which included both stone and mulch areas all of the Local Roots personnel were friendly and professional and performed excellent work with quality materials. From the initial design phase and advice during the install to ensure that we had the most desirable results possible the team always communicated the status and timeline as well as any concerns or changes they would recommend as the project progressed. I cannot stress enough how well the crew cleaned up the worksite each day which made a very large project for us easy to get through. I also would say their crews for both the hardscape and landscape were both kind and courteous and more than willing to explain something or provide information during the project. We are so pleased with the quality and final product for our project we would not hesitate to recommend this company to anyone looking for a quality professional landscaping company. These guys were just great to work with!

They have been life saving this past season after we unexpectedly lost one of our main landscaping contractor right before the spring due to an injury to the owner operator. Price, communication and quality of service are all 5 star. Glad we chose to give them a try.

Don't hesitate to hire Local Roots Landscaping! From start to finish, it was great to work with them. The whole team was very friendly; they truly seem passionate about their job. We had multiple trees removed (one was even growing into our neighbors garage!), and the everything was removed with care. Kenneth was very easy to communicate with and helped explain everything along the way. He made recommendations without ever being pushy, and was able to take my ideas and make them happen! I'm painfully indecisive and they were so patient and flexible. We will definitely book them for any future projects we decide to do. We love our new backyard, and can't wait enjoy it more in the spring!

Local Roots did an amazing job! The design team listened to what I wanted and was very thoughtful with suggestions. They were also very helpful in making adjustments to fit my budget. The on site team worked quickly and had great communication about status and gave suggestions. I would highly recommend using Local Roots for big or small landscaping projects.

The team at Local Roots was exceptional. From the beginning, Sarah kept the process running smoothly and in a timely manner. I was never left wondering what the next steps were and I felt confident knowing that someone was keeping a close eye on our project. Evan's attention to detail and ability to translate our wishlist into a beautiful design was second to none. He is extremely talented in landscape design and we were lucky to have him driving the visuals! Greg, Nick, John and Alejandro worked swiftly and transformed our backyard space in a matter of days! They were communicative and respectful while spending time on our property and couldn't have been nicer to talk to. They made sure to get our opinion before each next large step was made so that we were happy with the placement of all plants and lighting. In addition, they went above and beyond listening to our needs and were able to make game-changing decisions on site that ensured we were happy. We would work with them again in a heartbeat!

Local Roots does amazing work. Everyone we worked with had incredible expertise, from the design phase through demolition and installation. There was so much careful consideration and attention to detail that I fully trusted all of their recommendations and the end result is better than I ever imagined. I'm so happy we worked with them and absolutely recommend for any landscaping projects.

Do not hire this company. We signed up for regular lawn maintenance and clearly instructed them not to prune our shrubs. Despite this, their crew severely damaged our shrubs by improperly pruning them, causing many plants to yellow and die. The service was consistently incomplete—they neglected cleaning our driveway and patio, leaving behind significant debris and mess. Even worse, after repeated emails and phone calls explaining the damage, they completely ignored us. They stopped showing up altogether without any notice or explanation. Extremely unprofessional, irresponsible, and unreliable. Save your garden and avoid the stress by choosing another company. Additionally, when I addressed these issues to the company worker, their worker reacted aggressively, kicking and damaging furniture and plants in my backyard, making me feel threatened and unsafe in my own home. They never took responsibility or responded to the damage their crew caused to my plants.

Our experience with Local Roots was incredible. We absolutely love the finished product. Ricardo was great in planning our design. It was incredibly thoughtful and well planned out. He really listened to our ideas and truly delivered. Our installation team, Nick, John and Alejandro, showed up on time and finished the job within our time frame. They worked so hard and did an amazing job. Our experience from start to finish was amazing. Highly recommend them for your landscaping project!!

Bunch of mincers down there especially that guy derek and old mitch.

WOEHLER'S HAS A GREAT CREW WHO EXCEED EXPECTATIONS.

Horrible experience
I would not recommend to my worst enemy.
I had them come out and no one knew what the hell they were doing.

Absolutely amazing company! Did my tree trimming, weed pulling and mulch. Very reasonable pricing

Had 9 yards of mulch put down. The guy's did a nice job edging all the beds. Cleaned up nicely. Very friendly!

I had the same experience as another review. Came to look at the job; had good ideas and conversation; talked for about an hour... Expecting a bid via email a few days later...so excited to get this work done. Unfortunately, no bid no email...left a vms after 3 weeks; no return call.
Back to square one and lost almost a month -- waiting and hoping!

He did at least show up and look at my yard when he said he would. He had great ideas and discussed plans. However he never sent me a proposal and never answered my follow up call or email. I guess he didn’t need the business.

I have just seen the response from the owner. This is indeed NOT a fake name. In fact, I still have contact info for Dave Woehler in my phone.

Woehler did a boulderscaping and landscaping job for me that is fantastic! The owner and crew worked hard to make sure my neighbors were respected, job was very professional and artistic, it was completed in 2 days, and I have a beautiful backyard that is unique, natural, and adds value to my home. They cleaned up completely before leaving. I would very highly recommend them for any job you may need!

Woehler's crew is THE BEST. His workers do such a good job and are unfailingly polite. They sodded our front yard several years ago and we sign up for the spring/summer fertilizer treatments annually -- keeps the lawn green and lush into late summer, when they aerate/overseed. This business is a gem, highly recommend.

Woehler's crew just did our fall aeration and overseeding and they did a terrific job yet again -- fast and thorough. They also keep our lawn in top shape during the spring and summer months via their 5-part fertilization program. The price is right and the team is always polite. Highest recommendation for lawn and garden jobs big and small.
