Ted Wertz was very knowledgeable and quickly diagnosed my Arborvitae having spider mites. He was quick to schedule a spraying. I will recommend Bartlett to others.
Mark S., Bellefonte, PA
Ted answered all of my questions and seemed very knowledgeable about our trees and what they needed. He was also very friendly and called to give us a heads up the day before the work crew came. The crew that actually came to spray the trees did a nice job and were very courteous and mindful of our neighbors. I appreciate Bartlett taking care of our trees. Thank you.

Our arborist representative, Ted Wertz, is fantastic. Not only is Ted’s kindness apparent in each interaction, but I appreciate the care and detail that he put into evaluating our trees and explaining everything at every step. I was not familiar with Bartlett’s reputation and history when originally receiving quotes, so it was Ted’s thoughtfulness and friendliness that immediately indicated to me that our business would be going to, and staying at, Bartlett. Everyone on the crew was great, friendly, professional, and a pleasure to interact with. They left things neat as a pin and went above and beyond.

Ted Wertz is a great representative. Used service three times and was completely satisfied with the work.
Don M., State College, PA
I had the pleasure of meeting Ted a year ago when I discussed having trees pruned. What a wonderful job they did. I was extremely pleased. I contacted Ted this year when I noticed some bug on our tree and knew it needed immediate attention. Ted responded promptly and took a look at our other trees as well. He set up a service call quickly and the problem was remedied. So glad to know of a good company like this that performs exceptional and professional work. Thank you.
Kim Z., Duncansville, PA
Ted Wertz, is excellent. Very professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. We recently called him with some questions and he scheduled an appointment for a consultation. The appointment was only a few days after our call and he was, as always, on time and very interested in our property.. Before Ted, was Ed Meek and we always felt the same way about him. So, we are two-for-two on quality reps. That means a lot to us and is a big reason why we continue to be Bartlett customers.
Craig and Tammy C., State College, PA
Ted has been very easy to get ahold of, and he has addressed my concerns promptly. They did a very good job at my house and my business. I am going to highly recommend your business to others. Thank you for your time.
Rich M., Bellefonte, PA
I am very pleased to be working with Ted Wertz and his team. Every time I need to communicate with Ted the office staff have always been both very friendly and extremely helpful. I always know I will have timely responses to all my inquiries. Ted offers me continual guidance in maintaining my property. I appreciate his input and patience while answering all my questions. Once we have jointly agreed upon a plan of action I know his talented men will complete the jobs expertly.
Eileen D., State College, PA
Professional and accommodating as always. Always a pleasure working with Ted.
David W., State College, PA
I have only had contact with Mr. Wertz with your organization. I was pleased with our conversation in regards to my Pine trees. He recommended three sprayings to help with the problem. Today was the first time I have been at home to witness the spraying. Watched from my home and the job was performed very well.
Robert J., Hollidaysburg, PA
I appreciate being able to speak to a tree expert after hours at a time I was having a situation during a windstorm. That was reassuring and I knew someone would assess my situation as soon as time permitted. Ted was so professional and the crew were so good at what they do. I can not say enough how impressed I was. My huge tree came down quietly and safely. Amazing.
Nadine W., Warriors Mark, PA
Ted is very knowledgeable, friendly, and courteous. I appreciate his insight on improving the trees and bushes on my property. I have recommended Bartlett to my neighbors. One neighbor contacted Ted for tree service to be performed last year.
Bill B., State College, PA
We appreciate your knowledge and professionalism.
Elisa H., State College, PA
We will always use Bartlett because they are professional and always service our property in a friendly and professional manner. They leave our property looking like they were never here or better than before they arrived. Ted Wertz and his staff are the best, I trust Bartlett with our property, keeping it healthy, and looking great.
Tom K., State College, PA
Ted Wertz has been very helpful.
Steve B., Bellefonte, PA
Ted, Kim and the tree removal staff were great.
Susan H., State College, PA
I was very impressed by Ted Wertz's professionalism, friendliness, knowledge, and honesty. I had a list of ten tree service companies that I was going to try to get an estimate from. But I am going to look no further than Bartlett for my project. I hope to see a much improved property within the next month.
Shelly L., Falls Creek, PA
Ted, Kim, and the tree removal staff were great. Thank you.
Susan H., State College, PA
Ted Wertz was very thorough in providing an explanation of what service was going to be provided and followed up with an end of the project explanation and asked for any comments. Will definitely use Bartlett again if needed. Thank You. Great service.
Bob O., State College, PA
Arborist Ted Wertz and crew are very professional, efficient, and completed work in timely manner.
Peggy L., Petersburg, PA
Ted, Sara, and the entire Bartlett staff that we worked with were true professionals. Any questions we had were quickly and completely answered. We feel they gave our very large Ash tree a best chance of surviving the Emerald Ash Borer infestation. We do agree with Ted that it was unfortunate that we had not contacted him about three years ago, but until he explained the issue, we did not know why some of the lower limbs were dying. We would definitely recommend Bartlett to anyone having any tree related problems.
Garry D., Smithmil, PA
Ted is always on the ball. He can answer any question we pose to him. Bartlett and staff are great to work with. They are very efficient and professional. If you want a great job that you can be assured will be completed in a timely and professional manner, this is the group. Always remember you get what you pay for.
Tom K., State College, PA
Ted Wertz is very knowledgeable and professional.
Don H., Warriors Mark, PA

Ted Wertz was very knowledgeable about trees and diseases. So far we are impressed with the service. Two trees are to be trimmed next week.
John F., Port Matilda, PA
As in the past, Ted offered his expertise and had the work arranged with directions the crew could follow. The crew that trimmed the Flowering Crab were very good and trimmed the tree just as Ted and I discussed. Their cleanup was very good.
Richard F., Bedford, PA
Ted, your team just finished up the tree work at my property. The men worked straight from early morning doing a great job. I wish to thank all of you for your dedication and professionalism in completing a quality job.
Eileen D., State College, PA

Paul R., Julian, PA
Lab results from clippings were informative and helpful. Should someone contact me in need of any services that you provide, I would most certainly refer them to Bartlett.
Steve L., Port Matilda, PA
I was very impressed with Ted Wertz's knowledge about the issues concerning the trees and bushes on my property, issues that other tree service companies failed to mention. He and the crew that performed the work were friendly, explained the work that was done, and did a fine job all around. I appreciated the email from Kim Kenyon confirming the appointment and the bio of Ted Wertz, all useful information and sent in a timely manner.
Tani H., State College, PA
