Karen B., Jeannette, PA
Matt Murphy provided knowledgeable, efficient service, and the ground crew was thorough. I was concerned that the application was done when the soil was bone dry - Matt scheduled for Autumn, October 15th, when the soil was expected to be saturated and it only rained a little the next day. However, in this past week, October 26 to November 1, there has been significant rainfall, such that I trust the insecticide is now being drawn up.
Jack C., Greensburg, PA
All of the employees that I met were professional, knowledgeable, and efficient. Thank you for treating my Hemlocks. I look forward to having my Spruce treated for needle cast.

Everyone was courteous and professional, and the crew was so cute. When they were next door working on my neighbor’s property, they remembered to ask how my eye surgery went. Impressive. Thanks so much for excellent service.
Phillip P., Greensburg, PA
Very friendly. Actually pointed out additional shrubs to be treated as a precaution, and coincidentally there were bagworms already present. I am a Penn State Master Gardener who had received Con Ed credit hours at WCCC via Bartlett presentations. That is how I learned of Bartlett and knew they would be the arborists I would chose.

I like the way Matt answered all of my questions and explained exactly what had happened to the tree that needed to come down. He was courteous, helpful, and clearly very knowledgeable in his field. The crew who took the tree down did a nice quick job and left everything clean. Thank you for making this easy.
Laura P., Greensburg, PA
Matt Murphy was professional and personable. He guided us to make informed choices for maintenance of our valuable landscaping trees.

Matt, our Tulip Popular that was infested by insects two years ago is now fully recovered. The leaves are large and there is no evidence of insect infestation. Thank you for your diagnosis and your teams services.
Frantz and Chris H., Greensburg, PA
On March 8, 2017 I called Bartlett and informed Liana Dixon that the wind blew over a 40 foot tree which was laying on top of my house. I explained I needed to remove the tree ASAP and repair the roof before the next storm. She and Matthew Murphy, Bartlett's professional representative and arborist, performed brilliant on-the-spot orchestration of Bartlett resources and had team and cherry picker at house within 30 minutes! The three man team: Cecil VanHouten, Travis Howland and Chad Stirling performed the task of removing the tree with the utmost professional precision! Their performance of integrated synergy was a marvel to watch. I'm sure Barlett will receive several new customers from their demonstration that day. Immediately after Bartlett team cleaned up and departed, my contractor arrived and had ample time to temporarily repair the roof for the next storm. Kudos to Bartlett and its entire team from the initial telephone call to the Bartlett truck departing the neighborhood.
Mark K., Greensburg, PA
The crew did a fabulous job. George is a gem, don’t ever let that man go. All three guys were very nice.
