they were out here using my neighbor's tree. The actual tree resides on my property but they had some branches trimmed out of it because they love the tree too. I had some branches trimmed out on my side. I think they were good, but the pricing is crazy, outrageous high. They did come back again just yesterday to check on the tree and do a walk around of the property. I think they are a great company, but they are just priced out of my price range. I had tree work done by them before. They do a good job, but it is just not in my normal price range. Their most recent visit I did not ask how much the job would cost until after the job was done because I had used them before. I just figured I would have them trim the branches since they were already in the tree and they charged me, like, a full price as if I was cold calling them and the work was only from me. So they got a lot of bang for their buck. For their skill they are excellent at what they do. They really leveraged that job to the max. I would say they were very poor on price. It is partly my fault because I did not ask first. Their quality was good. They anticipated my need before I knew I had one. They are professional.
Description of Work: I used Bartlett Tree Experts to trim some branches out of a tree.

Bartlett has been our tree service for many years, they are out for various treatments and pruning throughout the year. We are always satisfied with their service. They have also removed trees that were diseased and beyond help. Yes, they are expensive, but they really are experts. Mark Tabibian is who we deal with ay Bartlett.
Description of Work: Performed annual bark treatments for insects, fertilized trees.

We went with the less expensive company.
Description of Work: I can only comment on an estimate received, but I feel it is important. We needed a large pine tree taken down due to carpenter ants. We received a quote from Bartlett for just under $2900. We felt this was a lot of money, so received another quote from a reputable tree company. The quote was $700. While I cannot comment on the difference in quality between the two companies, I was shocked that Bartlett was 4 times more expensive for the same project. On a positive note, Bartlett was professional, knowledgable, and very timely in coming out to give us an estimate.

Response from Bartlett Tree Experts - 31211
Bartlett Tree Experts always places safety first for our employees' protection and customer's property. Removal of this large white pine had some challenges that affected the pricing based on our safety standards. There was decay at the base and other white pines in close proximity which dictated slow sectional removal to preserve the other pines and safety for our climbers. The pine was located down a slight hill in the lawn area and we felt it was best to keep our equipment on the driveway thus keeping any lawn damage to a minimum. All the limbs and trunk would have to be moved up to the driveway and hauled off site. Bartlett Tree Experts' commitment to safety and respect for the customer's property, along with the fact that Bartlett Tree Experts carries appropriate insurance for general liability and workmen's compensation, can often reflect a higher price.

They are knowledgeable of the trees in the area. I have no complaints. They are professional. The only reason I would give them a B instead of an A is because we have to leave them a message on their machine.
Description of Work: Tree service.They have treated my trees for bag worms and a kind of fungus.

We called Ron to give him the go ahead to do the work. Unfortunately we came home from work that same evening and found one of the other tree services we had gotten an estimate from in our backyard already grinding the stump!! Needless to say we were pretty upset since we had not given them our consent - but that's a whole other story. Since there was no longer a stump left to grind we had to call Bartlett's back and cancel the job They were very understanding. I would not hesitate to use Bartlett's should the need arise. We have already referred them to a couple of other people - despite the fact that, due to the circumstances, they did not do the work for us.
Description of Work: We contacted Bartletts for an estimate to grind up a large tree stump and lots of surface roots from a Maple tree in our backyard Ron from Bartlett came out and talked to us. He was very professional and answered all of our questions. Per our request he gave us an estimate with two different options - one for them to do the stump grinding and derbris removal and one for the stump grinding only. We received a written quote along with a contract to sign if we decided to hire them. I was very impressed with his knowledge and friendly demeanor. We had gotten other estimates from a couple of different tree services but felt that Bartlet's by far offered the best services for the best price.

Bartlett makes my volunteer position on the civic association easy by annually evaluating the trees, responding to emergency calls, and pretty much handling everything so that I can focus on my real job and family. I know we are in good hands with Bartlett. I have 100+ homes counting on my decision to go with them as a service provider, and I have no complaints.
Description of Work: For the past several years, Bartlett has been the provider of choice for my civic association. We maintain an annual contract, and they provide services to the entire neighborhood, which is full of mature, street-lined trees (providing us a beautiful canopy but requiring a lot of maintenance). As the tree representative of our civic association, I can attest to Bartlett's professionalism, quality, and responsiveness. They've worked with us on pricing overall, but as unexpected "tree emergenices" come up (and with the recent weather, there have been several), Bartlett makes multiple "courtesy" calls that I'm sure another couple would nickel & dime us for. We've taken bids from other companies over the years, but with Bartlett, you know you will get the best quality and customer service. You get what you pay for, so to speak. Peter Kingshill, the arborist we work with, is knowledgeable, friendly, and extremely responsive. I highly recommend this company on a regular basis and felt it was time to put the rec on Angie's List as well.

They did pretty well, however scheduling was difficult. There were several times where they came and didn?t know if the property had been water logged. By the time they came out to see us we had a major rut. They did the job quite quickly. We were pleased with the way they pruned the trees. There was just one tree that made a pretty big rut in the backyard.
Description of Work: They trimmed some trees and we had them take down a tree in our backyard.
