The arborist who came to do the work was great, courteous, professional, and flexible, plus the trees and shrub look infinitely better.
Pamela W.

Nick was super responsive about a) coming by to check how my Crape Myrtles are doing after two treatments, before the pruning, and b) sending his crew back for some evening up of the trees. I have recommended Nick and Bartlett to several neighbors, at least one of whom has followed up and engaged you, and will be in touch about future pruning work in the spring. Thank you.
Diane M.

Always great service. Very appreciative of Forest Bowen and the Bartlett team. Forest's advice has always been great. The clean up has been excellent including on an overgrown abandoned back yard . We also have a small tree that self-seeded, Forest said the shallow roots might be disrupting the brick driveway. All the same, since we wanted to keep the trees for shade, he and his crew has taken excellent care of it over several years.

Ellen E.

Very good and will use again.

Meanwhile, I just want to thank your crew for doing a great job on Monday. Fascinating to observe. They were so careful. All of my Begonias under the tree survived. Also, one of the men the head guy, I think noticed that the tree in our tree box had a visible split where it branched out about twelve feet off the ground, and that the crack went entirely through the tree, and down towards the ground. I called DC 311, they came out on Tuesday, declared that it needed to come down, and the crew came in about one and a half hours and did take it down. Thank him for us, he may well have saved some major damage to a car, or a person.
Deborah E.

Thank you for taking care of our trees.
Anne-Marie C.

FYI, we are satisfied Bartlett customers at both our DC home and our second home in Westport Point, MA.

Very pleased with the fertilization and tree trimming.

Bartlett staff informed me of their arrival and explained to me what they were going to do. Once they were finished, they explained what they did and answered any questions I had. They cleared away all the debris so well it is difficult to tell any work was done.

Work was done in a timely manor and clean up was complete. Arborist gave good advice and came for a follow up visit to check. Bartlett came highly recommended by Casey Trees which is based in my neighborhood, a very good recommendation.

Ivan S.

Forest does a great job and always has a good solution for whatever problem has arisen.
Martha W.

Bill Eck is always helpful, professional, and responsive.
David A.

Bill Eck was one of the reasons I chose your company as he was here a couple of years ago and carefully explained what we needed to do to protect both our house and the huge, beautiful Magnolia Tree that sits quite close to our fifties rambler, hardly strong enough to withstand the weight of these large strong branches or omg the tree tilting. So he oversaw the team trimming branches and installing very strong cables from the top and down as far as needed... We decided to have it checked again this November, certain we would need a lot more work given the new growth. I was happy to be contacted by Bill again and after coming out for a look he wrote me what was needed. He assured me it did not involve more cable as that was as strong as ever and there were only a few branches he felt needed trimming. though post very little risk to our home. What he did suggest was fertilizing the roots and the area around the tree. He could have told me the tree was in danger of falling and needed stronger cables and lots of trimming and I wold have not known the difference. That is the best recommendation for any company I can imagine.
Barbara K.

Forest and the crew all did an excellent job and were very responsive.
Andy S.

Bill Eck is my Bartlett Arborist Representative and I could not have a better person overseeing the care of my trees. I have known Bill for years and he is the best.
Lynne F.

Very professional and courteous. Excellent service. My tree service was managed very well. I appreciated the careful attention given to my landscape services.
Gladys W.

Fast and well done. Greatly appreciated, great experience, and very reasonable price.
David S.

Staff has always been courteous and keeps me up-to-date on my current schedule. I have been consistently pleased with their service for over a decade. First through my mother, and now through me.
Sarajane G.

We just started using Bartlett this year and have not been thru a winter yet so have not experienced a growing season. Given that I am very pleased with Forest, the Arborist, who looks after our account, suggests care and follows up. The crews are professional and pleasant to work with.
David P.

Forest is terrific, and the crew that did the work were great and skillful.
Catie M.

Nick is excellent. He accessed the property to give advice and things I might consider. Such a pleasure and very knowledgeable. You feel you are in trusted hands. The crew that came to perform the task were excellent. So courteous and most professional. Excellent company.
Lee Etta P.

Larry Robinson, my Monitor Program Tech, is polite, kind, and knowledgeable. He notifies me in a timely manner by texting when he plans on coming to my property to treat my trees and shrubs. We walk the property and discuss any issues to which he either has an immediate solution or researches and treats the issue accordingly. The Altus treatments on the Crepe Myrtles worked wonderfully in controlling the aphids this past season.
Sally G.

Every crew member we have dealt with has been very professional, friendly, and helpful.
Alison F.

Tom does our monthly spraying. Very courteous, knowledgeable, and respectful of our property.
Alexis L.

Forest was great. Thanks for dealing with the Dogwood branches in the front yard. Very grateful.

John C.

Forest Bowen is a jewel.
Nicholas Lardy

Bill Eck is very friendly and knowledgeable, remembers our property and makes recommendations on how to best maintain healthy trees, quick to responds to calls. I am always amazed at how careful the crew is to minimize any evidence of their presence. The last job entailed removing a tree in the midst of a flower bed fronted with tomato plants in tomato cages. There was no damage to the tomatoes which must have involved considerable maneuvering and a great deal of care in removing the tree. The effort was much appreciated, as we were resigned to the fact that the tomatoes could not possible survive in such close proximity to the tree work, that the plants did is a testament to the care your crews take in doing their job. There is never any mess or debris at the worksite, everything is completely cleaned up and returned to original condition.
Robert H.

I have been working with Arborist, Bill Eck, for years, he is a stand-up guy who goes out of his way to make sure that you and your trees are well taken care of.
Lynne F.

The staff was knowledgeable and excellent. They did a great job. Thank you.

Hedwig P.

My representative, Forest Bowen, is knowledgeable, and has come to know our trees and help us maintain them in as healthy a state as possible. I appreciate the manageable frequency of interactions. That is, I am not bombarded by constant emails, rather I receive periodic emails with relevant updates or reminders.
Janet F.

Very helpful, thanks for keeping an eye on our trees.
Werner S.

Forest is terrific. He showed up when he said he would. He was always prepared and had helpful ideas. The crew was very good and I do not mind that a few small plants gave up their lives for the good of the garden. Hard not to step on some plants in trimming the trees. I mention this only as information and not as a statement of anger or dissatisfaction. I look forward to Barltett coming next December to trim the Crepe Myrtle and I wlll definitely schedule Bartlett to trim the Hornbeams in the back garden next spring.
Douglas G.

Super happy with this company. Responsive and professional. Highly recommend.
Laura H.

Forest is fantastic, looking after our city property with several mature Oaks and other species.
Nicholas L.

Other than saying they did an excellent job trimming my Maple and Crab Apple trees, I can not offer detailed comments about the crew members because I was out of town when they arrived and so I did not meet them. However, I did meet Bill Ek, who came to the house several days earlier to scope out the job, and found him to be both extremely knowledgeable and an all around nice guy.
Michael R.

Knowledgeable staff, conducted work in timely, efficient manner. I am certainly no arborist, but after the crew finished, in much less time than I thought it would take, the results were more than satisfactory. Our house is in a heavily wooded neighborhood, but with a few strategically directed cuts and trims, more than a few extra rays of sunshine now fall on our yard, and the threat of extra tree limbs also falling has been substantially diminished.
Larry V.

We will likely use Bartlett again in the future. Thanks.
Troy C.

Very much appreciated. Thank you.
Sally B.

I appreciated the frequent communication from Forest as he worked to set up the pruning service. He was very knowledgeable about what needed to be done and explained the necessary work clearly.
Betsy F.

Forest Bowen was professional and helpful in our first meeting. All further follow-up was to a high professional standard.
Richard H.

Forest was wonderful. He was very responsive and helpful and always followed through on everything he promised. I could not recommend him more highly.
Rachna B.

Bill Eck has been fantastic in creating an advanced tree protection plan for our home renovation and addition near several trees.
Geoffrey D.

This most recent visit from Bartlett was for Simeon Spottswood to spray several trees and bushes with Horticultural oil. Last Fall Simeon also applied several soil care and pest management treatments All the work was done well. I particularly appreciated Simeon contacting me in advance so that I could coordinate with my neighbors and providing several flexible scheduling options so I could arrange a time that was convenient to them. In addition, last Fall I worked with Nick Scaletta to have extensive trimming of my large Hemlock hedge, several Hollie bushes, a Red Maple tree, and remove a dead Apple tree. All the work was excellently done exactly to my specifications, and as the work progressed the crew leader communicated with me to confirm the work from my perspective and make adjustments. I am very happy with this work and will definitely have Bartlett back again regularly.
Andrew S.

Bill Eck is always a pleasure to meet with and walk around my property and discuss work to be done. I always learn something new about my trees, bushes, and garden from talking to him.
Ellen E.

Each time I have contacted the Bartlett staff they were courteous, professional, and addressed all of my questions. I am happy and very satisfied with Bartlett’s tree service. Thank you.
Marilyn P.

All staff members were well informed, on time, and hard-working.
Cathy C.

Nick and his field crew are great to work with, and are very responsive to questions I have about my property.
Neil S.

We have a very small yard around our row house, but we definitely have some trees that need Bartlett's care. So I am glad that the Bartlett crew was able to trim our trees, even though this is a very small project for them. I especially liked that they asked me if they should trim our Holly trees that hangs over our neighbors yard. Our neighbors were away, but I was able to reach them by phone, and got their permission. So I appreciate this opportunity to trim the Holly trees on both sides of our fence.
Gail S.

It's without reservation that I have complete confidence in Bartlett's service. Arborist Nick Scaletta is knowledgeable, approachable and super responsive to all of our inquiries and needs. He's priceless. The service crew that does our monitoring service and pruning have changed through out the years, but they are always great - responsive, polite, professional and a joy to work with.
B. Lamoreaux

Bill Eck is impressively knowledgeable and at the same time good at explaining what he knows. I learn something about my garden every time he comes, and I feel confident that his recommendations are going to be the best way to proceed.
Susan B.

Great staff and service. Forest Bowen is an excellent arborist who listens to concerns and then offers solutions that result in positive outcomes. The work crews come prepared and perform their jobs safely and efficiently.
G. Moore

Everyone was very courteous and professional. The first time the crew came out, they did not cut our Fig tree back far enough but came back and did a great job.
P. Woolsey

Nick Scaletta is knowledgeable, friendly, prompt, and responsive to our concerns. He has taken excellent care of our trees and shrubs and we are grateful.
Larry O.

My experience with Bartlett has always been very good. Tree trimming was done with thoughtful attention to shape and purpose. Dealing with problems related to pests and disease in the garden was properly diagnosed and addressed.
Tom C.

Forest is always responsive to email. Payment by phone was easy and efficient.
Ellen W.

The technician who came to my house was very professional and came to the door to let me know that he was in our backyard working. Any encounter I have had with a Bartlett employee has demonstrated their professional knowledge and quality of care.
Nancy S.

We have always found Bartlett staff to be courteous, helpful, and thorough. Bill Eck and his crews do an excellent job of explaining what needs to be done and answering questions.

Nick was knowledgeable and gave me a fair price for the job. The gentleman he sent to do the job was excellent, constantly checking in with me to make sure his work met my expectations.
Jeffrey H.

They did a superior job in shaping and significantly decreasing the aerial footprint of my Plum tree. The clean was not perfect but it was adequate. I did have to spend about half an hour a few days later cleaning up what they left. Forest is always very responsive and informative. I have appreciated his input.
Virginia T.

From bid to job execution through invoice and payment, everyone operated with the highest degree of courtesy, helpfulness, and professionalism. It was amazing watching your crew expertly take down the two trees in our very tight, urban row house backyard. My neighbors commented on how careful, respectful, and thorough the crew operated. Without reservations, I would extend my highest recommendation.
Paul V.

Nick was very helpful and his explanations of what needed to be done and why were thorough and complete.
Philip B.

Great crew. Amazing work up in the tree. Clean up was excellent. Really good job, start to finish.
Catie M.

Bill is the very best. Trust him totally. We love Bill’s expertise and honesty.
Karen T.

Thank you for a staff who went the extra mile.
Leslie B.

This has been a longtime relationship. The crew of the moment is always courteous and willing to interact with information about the job. Bill Eck is knowledgeable and open to suggestions from the owner's point of view. The most recent job started late in the day, and the crew was pressed to beat the darkness. They pressed on and finished up as the last light failed, but were careful to get the last of the cleanup completed.
Roy H.

Bill Eck is amazing. You always feel your trees are in the most capable hands.
Antonia F.

Santiago and his crew did a great job with the pruning, removal of a Viburnum, and planting of a new six foot Hoopsii which I really like. Also, I appreciated that Forest Bowen was able to get this work scheduled for me as soon as he did once he saw that the one Viburnum was declining. Thanks to all and Happy Holidays.
Beth K.

Forest Bowen was particularly helpful and knowledgeable. He met with us, answered our questions, explained procedures. The crew was polite and efficient. We had a tremendous experience with Bartlett. We will keep them in mind for future tree maintenance.

I had an excellent experience with Bartlett, Chris, and his team. The crew arrived at my property early, explained the work to me, and left my backyard in better condition than when they arrived. Joyce Baldo was responsive and a pleasure to coordinate with.
Patrick O.

Our arborist representative was straight forward in providing an accurate assessment of the issues with our Hemlock and surrounding plant material. In short, he said we did not have the problem we thought and recommended a treatment for problems that were present in the tree. The arborist for Care of Trees who had come earlier to give an assessment confirmed our incorrect thoughts and recommended a treatment that was not needed.
Tom C.

Excellent professional tree landscapers. I felt completely satisfied and pleased by their Knowledge, courtesy, and expertise. The Bartlett representative Mr. Bowen was excellent at helping me decide what to prune back he was professional and polite and also got my service done early as I had hoped. I would definitely have him back with his crew.
Angela I.

Nick Scaletta has been attentive to our needs for many decades. A fine professional and gentleman. He made several talks to my wife's Chevy Chase, DC Garden Club over the years and was always well received.
Barbara B.

Bartlett Tree Service personnel were excellent. From the professional arborist, Bill Eck's advice to the work done by the tree surgeons and climbers to the work done by the tree chemists, everyone was attentive, polite, and caring. We will welcome everyone of them back for our next tree work in March. Outstanding, prompt assessment of needs and then follow up service.
Meg A.

Kevin Clair provided exceptionally professional service. His care plan for our yard is excellent and has allowed us to cease worry about the future of various trees in our yard. I only wish we had magically known to call him twelve years ago when we moved into this house.
Charlotte L.

The arborist and crew were very polite and considerate. They were willing to discuss my needs. The crew worked very efficiently and did a great job. I still hope to get advice on fertilizing my Maples that my neighbor butchered last December. I hope to try to save them from dying and a lot of the work done on my trees was toward this end.
Diane D.

Santos was wonderful. I could not believe how clean they left our property. They blew the leaves off all of the patios, even though their work did not disturb those areas. Working with Nick Scaletta, the arborist, was a pleasure. Highly recommend Bartlett.
Tomi L.

Sam was knowledgeable, professional, and friendly. Very hopeful that the treatment sets my Japanese Maple on the path to recovery.
Beth M.

Forest is extremely knowledgeable and I trust his advice. Sam does an excellent job and works around our schedule.
Florence A.

The Bartlett Arbotist Representative was very knowledgeable and helpful in offering advice in how to tackle the job. Every stage of the process was handled professionally with my needs in mind. He was quite helpful in ensuring that the job was scheduled timely to accommodate other work that was being done on the property. The crew members arrived on time, asked me questions about the job, gave me status updates, and asked me to inspect the completed to ensure that I was satisfied. They were very professional from the beginning to the completion of the job. I would without hesitation use Bartlett on future projects.
Russell S.

Sam was very pleasant and helpful.
Brooke F.

Our arborist was knowledgeable, professional, and a pleasure to work with. The crew was excellent, professional, courteous, and careful. They did a thorough job cleaning up after they had removed our tree.
Anne W.

Everyone has been amazing.
Daniel T.

Forest, in our opinion, is the best and only Arborist we will ever use. We have known and trusted Forest for many years now. He not only understands our visual preferences but truly cares and understands our tree’s individual unique needs. He is always willing to come over and look at any concerns we have. In addition he comes over on a routine bases with out us asking just to check on how our trees are doing even during inclement wether. There have been many times that Forest has caught a problem or the start of a potential problem before we even notice. When Forest gives us recommendations about our trees, soil and plants we always give him the green light to proceed. In addition the crew is always professional, and courteous. They always do an amazing Job. Unfortunately our door bell is not working so we have not been able to meet or talk to crew members due to that often we just do not know they are there, until they start to work. However I can say with confidence from past experience they have always been kind, professional, and courteous. This last job they did I was able to watch them finish towards the end and I was impressed with the attention to detail and how they where carful not to step on the flowers. When they take a brake, they do not leave trash on the ground and use my trash bins appropriately to discard their items. I feel like I can trust them on my property anytime I am not home. I also just want to say thank you for the amazing work and job you guys did at my residency.
Sarah A.

Forest and Sam are always very professional, courteous, and responsive, to any particular concerns that I may have regarding my trees and shrubs. I appreciate their excellent service.
Beth K.

Nick Scarletta, the arborist who came out to look at our property, was very professional, and helpful. The man who came out to do the work was also very professional, courteous, and helpful.
Alison F.

Nick was completely professional, knowledgeable, and honest. All went very well. The crew was polite, did a terrific job and cleaned up perfectly. It is a pleasure to deal with everyone from Bartlett.
Deborah G.

Forest always replies quickly to inquiries and provides sound advice. My trees were quite healthy this year, which I attribute to the proper deep feeding they are now getting along with less air pollution and more rain this summer.
Darrell F.

Bill was a pleasure to work with and had amazing encyclopedic knowledge about trees. He knew not only everything about my tree, but also neighboring trees and the city regulations for tree removal. I could tell right away this was more than a job for him, trees are his life’s work.
Angela S.

Forrest was very knowledgeable, professional, and responsive, during the site visit and with several follow up questions I had. His obvious experience and professionalism made it reassuring to tackle such a big job. The crew was excellent too. They worked quickly and methodically and did an outstanding job. Their skill and expertise was impressive. I also talked several times with Dee Dee and other staff, who were all very courteous, helpful, and professional. Taking down a big tree is expensive and a little daunting as a homeowner. Overall, we had an excellent experience with Bartlett and will recommend your company highly to any friends and neighbors who are looking for a referral. Every person we interacted with on the Bartlett team was knowledgeable, organized, courteous, and professional. Their expertise, responsiveness, and excellent work made the whole process seamless and easy. And we are thrilled with the results.Thank you.
Sherry S.

Excellent advice from everyone from the office to the crew. Everyone had the best interests of the health of the tree as well as the beauty of the landscape in mind. Thank you for taking such good care of our lovely Cherry tree.
Kelly G.

First rate.
Jackie D.

Bill was extremely helpful and knowledgeable during our consultation and throughout the process. I was impressed with how quickly the crew was able to do the job. They were efficient and incredibly hard-working. It is an incredibly difficult job working high up in the trees, trimming branches, so hats off to the crew for making it look easy. I will happily recommend Bartlett to friends, colleagues, etc. Of the contractors I've worked with recently, they were by far the best and made things very streamlined and easy. Thank you!

William W.

Forest Bowen was thorough in his analysis of the aphid infestation of our Hackberry tree and provided us with a logical plan to attack the problem. We got a quote the same day and the work was scheduled to take place within a week. Sam, who was the technician for the job, efficiently completed the work, provided us with product information, and answered all of our questions. Most importantly, what they did worked.
Gordan M.

As always, courteous,and knowledgeable.
Fred S.

Great job.Thank you.

Caroline S.

Excellent service.
Margaret D.

Bill Eck was very friendly, knowledgeable and did not turn me away by using any hard sell tactics. Which I can not tolerate. Larry, the person who did the treatment was also friendly and thorough and very accommodating as my yard is filled with perennials and shrubs everywhere. It must not have been an easy property to treat. But I feel that Larry did an excellent job.
John S.

Forest is always friendly and helpful.

Robert H.

I appreciate the friendliness of the office manager, of Forest Bowen’s prompt return phone calls and of the service person’s work.
Mary Ann W.

The Bartlett team that did our work was the same team that has been here before to complete projects for us. They knew our property and did a great job removing some very large limbs from some very tricky locations.Forest Bowen did an incredible job coordinating everything and getting the job completed quickly.When I first called him he was in our neighborhood and I was actually talking with him as he pulled up in front of our house a minute later.It was as if he was waiting for my call. Very pleased with all of the service we received.

Joy S.

Bill is awesome. He is so knowledgeable and helpful. Highly recommend Bartlett Tree Experts for any tree work.
Betsy E.

I was very pleased with every person I came in contact with.
Tristan O.

Your representative is very knowledgeable and courteous. Your tree crew was on time and worked hard all day. Parking for them was initially a problem that they dealt without complaint and well. The leader promoted real teamwork on a difficult job. I would recommend Bartlett to anyone. They are a no-nonsense operation that gets the job done well. We need more companies like that.
Patricia W.

Forest Bowen is the reason I am a Bartlett customer. He always responds to my communications quickly. He gives helpful care recommendations. Sam, the fellow who does the treatments also provides very good service. I am a happy client, thanks to Forest and Sam.

Greg G.

Bill Eck was a pleasure to work with. Very knowledgeable and great at addressing all of our questions regarding our tree care.
Anna F.

Very professional crew who also took time to answer our questions, did fantastic work, and cleaned all resulting debris. Forest was timely and responsive. He kept us informed of schedules and clearly knows the business, that and his name is perfect. We could not be happier with the results.
Kenneth C.

Forest Bowen was referred to me by a neighbor who spoke very highly of him. When he came to my property, he was very courteous, professional, responded to my concerns, and advised me about pruning the trees in question. He wrote up a plan on how and when to proceed. He also addressed my concerns about the health of one large Viburnum. In addition, Forest recommended scale and soil treatments for other trees. This reminded me that my two Crape Myrtles had suffered from an aphid attack a few years back but survived after emergency treatment. I definitely want to protect them and other trees and shrubs from further damage or disease by preventative treatment. Forest sent me the written program plan in a very timely fashion which seemed very reasonable to me in scope and cost. I signed it and returned it quickly. My first treatment was complete within days by a very skilled and competent individual. I will be happy to recommend your company to other neighbors and friends when the opportunity presents itself. Since I do not do social media, I appreciate the opportunity to check the box below allowing you to use my comments while protecting my privacy.
Beth K.

Always appreciate Bill Eck’s knowledge.
Greg G.

Bartlett had sprayed our garden last year. Forest Bowen voluntarily returned this year and saw that our garden had not improved. He had our garden sprayed again this year and took another sample to the lab. You cannot ask for better service than that.

For the many years we have worked with him at several of our properties with many matures trees and large shrubs, his experience, recommendations, solutions on various tree removals, and issues to responding expeditiously to an emergency when two of our huge mature Hemlocks fell over our fence to a neighbor's house. We are always comforted by his prompt response, attention, and service. I have recommended him to everyone who have inquired about tree service.

Merel Y.

Crew was professional and efficient.

Bill Eck is the best.
Bonnie C.

The crew who came to the property were polite, respectful, and efficient in their work. I was very pleased with the work they did, and they tidied up thoroughly at the end.

Dialogue is on-going with regard to further work.

Betsy E.

Bill was professional and followed through on all aspects of the job including returning to do additional pruning.
Helen S.

What a professional operation. Forest Bowen went through our property tree-by-tree and shrub-by-shrub, explaining the pruning and feeding recommendations. The crew came out within days, completed the work perfectly, and left the place spotless. Everything looks manicured now, and I know my ‘baby,’ a seventy year old Camelia, that was planted when I was born and transplanted ten years ago, will thrive with the proper Bartlett care.
Janet H.

Forest has been a wise and intelligent custodian of our trees for years. I am grateful.
Frances M.

Bill went the extra mile in terms of effort, attention to detail, and doing little extras. Trimming done with artistry.

Forest Bowen was lovely to work with. I got an out of office reply to an email at one point. It said he would be back on July 1st, and true to the email I got a response from him the morning of the 1st. It usually takes me a day to dig out of the email weeds after a trip, very impressive.

Forest Bowen was knowledgeable and helpful regarding my tree issues and questions. I enjoyed talking with him.

Bill Eck has been outstanding as our Bartlett representative. I do not have the names of crew members who have worked here, but all of them, whether doing fertilizing, spraying, or pruning, have been considerate, careful, and highly competent.
D. James B.

Have been very impressed with Bartlett's staff over the years. Nick Scaletta was very patient with me, walking my yard and giving advice. I have not met Forest yet, but am sure he will be just as professional and helpful.
Charles O.

Everyone at Bartlett has been great to work with, from the office staff, to arborist, Nick Scarletta, to the great crew who came to do the work. The trees look just great and we really appreciate the kindness and courtesy of everyone at Bartlett. We will certainly recommend you to our friends.
James and Suzanne H.

Did the job as Forest said they would do, the crew cleaned up very well, Forest was very professional, the price was very fair, and I would be happy to refer you to others in the future.
Chris E.

Having had a Poplar fall on our house in March, it is imperative to prevent further mishaps such as that. Bill Eck's advice establishing priorities regarding feeding and pruning was helpful and reassuring. We liked the fact that he is very familiar with the trees in our particular neighborhood, and extremely knowledgeable in general.
Elaine M.

I so appreciate the updates and information that are passed along to us. Nick Scaletta got back to me immediately about the boxwood blight issue and the treatment was applied within days. I do rely on Nick’s advice and he is always proactive and responsive.
Karen S.

Way to go, Forest, your clients are huge fans.
Brad M.

Bill was impressively knowledgeable and friendly. The crew did an excellent job on the property and went the extra mile to be friendly and polite. Bartlett really hits it out of the park we are very happy customers.
Sasha B.

Forrest has been helping us for several years and we were relieved to know that he has continued his career with Bartlett, previously with Woodacres. He is extremely knowledgeable and has, over the years, given us well-received advice about the best way to take care of our trees. The other crew members were excellent too, checked whether we were satisfied with the work they had completed before they left. Our Holly tree, in particular, has never looked better.
June N.

We have used many other recommended tree care services. No one has compared to the knowledge and professionalism of Bill Eck.
David S.

Nick is the best, knowledgeable, friendly, thorough, and conscientious. Always follows through. Tree workers were polite and competent.

Bill Eck does a terrific job. The crews he sends to do pruning and fertilizing have always been first rate.
James B.

I can always rely on my arborist, Nick, and value his expertise and recommendations. Santos and his crew have been to our home several times and I can also rely on them as well to be courteous, professional, and attentive to my needs and issues. Tyler is the new member and always appreciate it when he calls to let me know that he is coming by. He also takes his time and is thorough at his job. My experience with Bartlett since Nick has come on board has only been positive.
Beth L.

I appreciated the attentiveness of the team to my concerns, including a willingness to work directly with me on the ornamental pruning. The staff was courteous, professional, and thorough. Thank you for a job well done.
Margaret G.

Maria M.

Nick was always prompt, informative, and friendly. It was a pleasure to work with him.
Janice W.

Work was very well done from start to finish. Bill Eck was very helpful in assessing the scope of the project and identifying the work that was needed. The crew chief who led the work was very responsive. The crew worked extremely hard. Cleanup was great.
Mike B.

Forest is outstanding. It is rare in today's business community to focus on relationship. Service and price are important, however quality of relationship trumps both. His crew reflexs his leadership.
Tom A.

Forest is very professional and answered all my questions. Sam provided the tree service, was punctual, and completed the work in a timely manner.
Tom D.

Forest Bowen is a great person. He is nice and friendly and I really trust his expertise. I only trust my garden to him and I will follow him wherever he goes.
Gloria L.

I enjoy working with everyone at Bartlett. Nick is always on time for his consultations and provides advice and recommendations as needed. The crew that came to prune and clean up at my home were excellent, pointing out problems as seen. They projected such a positive attitude and enjoyment for what they were doing. I had worked with the lead guy, Jose, before when he pruned my Crape Myrtle.
Mary L.

Love working with Forest Bowen. He is always responsible and friendly. Gets the job done in a timely manner.
Carl and Courtney B.

Nick has always been helpful and available to answer questions and make recommendations on a variety of our trees.
Barbara B.

Many thanks for the superb work of the crew in cutting our big Redwood tree. It was challenging but they did a great job.
Dilek B.

Nick Scaletta keeps better track of our trees than we do, thankfully. The crews that trim and fertilize are polite, friendly, and speak English well.
Larry O.

I was amazed by Bartlett's prompt service after a wind storm took down trees in the area, many on top of houses and cars and in situations far more dire than my own. Bill was able to come by within three hours of my call to look at the tree, and a crew showed up that afternoon, well ahead of when I thought it would be possible. Thank you for making the trauma of losing a beloved tree so much easier to deal with.
Allison G.

Bill Eck always comes as soon as I call and explains all the work that has to be done.
Pegi M.

Excellent work, have used you for years.
Ronald S.

Arborist is very knowledgeable, timely, and responsive. Gave very sound advice.
Jane V.

I have always had good service from Nick and his crew.
Anne B.

Christopher explains things so we can understand our particular landscape without being confused. We appreciate that Mike calls us before arriving, also that he takes time to answer any concerns with patience. I liked the card that's was left on the front door after the a job is done.
Doris S.

Bill, your help and deep knowledge of tree health have been outstanding on all levels!
Emily H.

Mr. Scaletta has saved our holly trees, he was very flexible in scheduling the trimming of our oak during our half-year of thinking about it. The three man crew doing the trimming had Mr. Scaletta's instructions on what to trim and carried them out. They worked very efficiently and I was amazed at how much dead wood they found. The two working in the tree were incredible the way they worked at those heights. The man on the ground was kept busy gathering branches as they fell. Our yard was cleaner when they left than when they arrived. The price was competitive with another bid.
Larry O.

Nick is a pleasure to work with and the crew who did the pruning were polite accommodating, and very neat. The holly looks even better than I imagined it could and my yard was left immaculate. The neighbors have been commenting on the great job on.
Carin R.

Bill Eck is always very helpful and responsive . I count on him to take care of our trees and have always been fully satisfied.
Susan L.

We thought Nick was terrific and appreciated his honesty about the outlook for our ailing tree. Would happily recommend him!
Renne B.

Try asking plumbing questions at Home Depot. Good luck. Expertise is hard to find, and there is no substitute for knowledge. I particularly enjoy Mr. Christopher Larkin's expertise. I value that Bartlett sends me an expert, not a salesman. This is my second time working with Mr. Larkin, and our work is ongoing. Great job.
Erich H.

I work with Nick Scaletta on several properties I manage in Washington D.C. He and the crews never fail to be professional, courteous, transparent, flexible, and do their best to make sure every job is done right.
Mike A.

My arborist representative, Bill Eck, was extremely knowledgeable, informative, and thorough in his assessment of the trees on our property. He offered a variety of recommendations, allowing me to discuss the level of work to which I wanted to commit my resources. Scheduling was a breeze, and the crew arrived precisely at the appointed hour. They worked efficiently, taking care with every item on the work order. The supervisor, Phil, was pleasant and professional throughout the day. And the clean-up was amazing - one would never have guessed the extent of the work that was done. An A+ rating for all personnel!
Sara M.

Bill Eck was professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. The team that did the work (led by Phil) was quick and courteous.
Lauren W.

Bill Eck is very responsive and knowledgeable. A pleasure to deal with. The people he sends are always courteous and do a great job.
Greer G.

Bill Eck is very knowledgeable and helpful. He noticed and brought to my attention an infestation affecting shrubs on my property even though that was not the purpose of his visit.
Roberta C.

Absolutely top notch in every respect. Really artistic and careful about the shapes and creating beautiful skeletons in the branches. Careful and safe even though it is pretty "hairy" doing what they do. Nick wrote a very thorough contract and was extremely knowledgeable from the get-go.
Jill L.

I have absolute confidence in Bartlett's assessment and suggested maintenance. Glad to know the Bradford's in such healthy shape. The kids will love playing outback under its shady goodness for years to come.
Matt A.

Nick was great  very flexible in scheduling and rescheduling due to multiple weather delays; and very diplomatic and patient in dealing with my difficult neighbor whose agreement we needed to do work on her tree.
Christopher S.

I could not say enough good things about our arborist, Nick Scaletta. He was extremely professional, honest and helpful. I was very impressed by the quality of service. Thank you, Nick.
Brett D.

Previously when we had the treatment performed on the Laurel, there was spray residue on the windows above them. I am pleased that that did not happen this time. The tech was courteous and professional when he came to the door before commencing work. I appreciate Bill's knowledge and being able to consult with him when necessary.
Deborah B.

Excellent work beginning with Nick Scaletta and the crew who took care of the trees. Nick was especially considerate and helpful dealing with the neighbor and her tree overhanging our property.
Kathy S.

Have used Barlett's service over the years with great satisfaction, this was no exception.
