Two oak trees came down, the stumps were ground, and a newly seeded lawn survived: a recent Google customer said Bartlett Tree Experts used a bucket truck to work around the telephone wires and laid planks so the lawn was not ruined. This is the Waltham office of Bartlett, and Google shows it at 4.7 stars from 56 ratings. Its BBB profile describes tree services including cabling and bracing, removal, inspections, insect and disease management, and fertilization. A recent customer hired Bartlett for a small yard with multiple trees that needed hard pruning, and said the two men worked from the bucket with hand pruners and took care along the neighbor's property line and the street; that customer called the price extremely reasonable. A recent customer described crowded properties, difficult access and a small street, and said the crew was communicative and good at problem solving there, with a price that was not "cheap" but what they would expect. A recent customer with a mature dogwood that bloomed less each year said the Bartlett representative knew what it needed, and after a couple of treatments it had full blooms. A recent customer used Bartlett to raise the tree canopy in the backyard and said the trees look healthier, naming Kris as friendly staff. A recent customer said Kris and her coworker came to remove several trees. In a 2024 review, a customer said Wes was helpful after a large limb from a beech tree fell and damaged a car, and that the team took the tree down and cut pieces for bowls and a coffee table. A 2024 customer wrote that Bartlett sprayed for ticks. A recent one-star Google reviewer wrote that their truck and a few others were sprayed with chemicals on Boston Wharf Road. In a 2025 r/boston post, a person who had hired Bartlett a few years earlier said they "screwed up and didn't own up to it."
“there is also a company in the area called Bartlett, which is who we use. With the caveat that we use them to help maintain a tree rather than getting rid of one.”
“Several people recommended Bartlett when we were looking a few years ago, but they screwed up and didn't own up to it, so I want to avoid them in the future.”
“Asplundh or Bartlett, etc. Apply for a groundsman job.”
“Try Bartlett”
“We've had good success with these guys: https://www.bartlett.com/”
They really understood what my concern were and were frankly the only organization that gave me, PROFESSIONAL advice and reliable treatment plan
The crew was expert, communicative, and great at problem solving given the particular site conditions (crowded properties, difficult access, small street.) While the price wasn't "cheap", given the level of expertise and specialized equipment required; the price was what I would expect.
Amazing services. Super knowledgeable and proficient in their work.
