What Our Customers Are Saying About Richard Vrboncic
It is all about the person that handles our account. Rich Vrboncic is a consummate professional with years of experience who always finds the right solution.
His treatment plan for our yard, over a period of years, has included treatments for two rare Ash trees and an old Hawthorne that provide a beautiful and essential canopy for our elevated backyard deck. These trees have thrived under Rich’s care. He has also provided successful care for two of our rental properties.
What a gem.
James and Carolyn K., Pittsburgh, PA
Rich always had good advice for caring for my trees and also takes time to listen to my concerns. The trees on my property were one of the reasons I purchased it. Rich and his crew have helped my old big Maple survive and have also removed trees that were no longer viable. Getting reliable information from a knowledgeable source is important at a time when so much misinformation is easily available.
I do recommend Bartlett and Rich when people ask about someone to do tree work. Last week when I recommended them to another Bridgeville resident she said that is who she always uses. As a retired librarian my education trained me to search out and use reliable sources for information and the Bartlett organization not only supplies that on site, but also through newsletters with seasonal information on maintaining our trees and shrubs.

Rich Vrboncic is especially pleasant to deal with. Professionally he knows his information and imparts it well. Those who worked on the job were pleasant too and spent all their time doing the job and did it well and safely.

Rich is tops. His staff is always courteous, friendly, and efficient. We were called ahead of time by the crew member on his arrival to notify us what he was doing, which was a good idea.
Al G., Bridgeville, PA
Rich and his crew were thorough in completing the removal of trees on my property but they were also very good when the circumstances changed regarding a large Elm tree on my property. I appreciate their courtesy in not doing unnecessary work and being up front with the issues with the Elm.

I could not be more pleased. This week with Mae and Chris as well as my previous interactions with Bartlett employees have been so satisfying. Bartlett folks have always been friendly, listen well, professional, technically skilled, and service oriented. I told her that I think they must have a great employee training program or the management has a great eye for talent.
