The company describes itself on its website as offering tree removal, pruning and maintenance across Westport, Greenwich, Stamford, Norwalk and the rest of Fairfield County for over 35 years. That 2025 customer also said a full 4 cord of hardwood firewood was delivered and stacked by Bert's team. A 2023 customer said Bert climbed 60 feet up a tree to reach their cat, which had been stranded for two days, and had to coax it twice. A 2022 customer said he removed a large number of trees for them without price gouging. A 2024 customer said their family had worked with Bert for over 7 years and called him honest, fair and knowledgeable. The business has also been in the news.

Bert's Tree Service provided us with excellent hardwoods for firewood. The wood was delivered and stacked very efficiently and professionally by Bert's team. A full 4 cord as promised, maybe even a little bit over 4 cord. Bert has also done very challenging and difficult tree removals for us in the past. Again, a professional and experience crew got the job done with no issues and a fine clean-up to boot. We highly recommend Bert's Tree Service.
I have worked with Bert several times, and he is absolutely wonderful to work with on-site. He is incredibly hardworking and always extremely mindful of each project. Bert never rushes and his top priority is doing things the right way, with great care and attention to detail. His deep knowledge of trees and landscaping is impressive, and his suggestions always enhance the natural beauty of the environment, never forcing anything to look unnatural or overdone. I truly appreciate his thoughtful approach and expertise. I highly recommend Bert and would give him 10 stars if I could. Thank you, Bert, for consistently doing such an outstanding job!
His logging truck is constantly speeding around town I guess eager to get to his next deforesting project His location in the post road is an unsightly hazard as is his meeker house It would be nice if he had more respect for his neighbors in town
Bert is the most knowledgeable Arborist i have ever encountered. He is also one of the nicest people ive ever met. This guy goes way above the call of duty. Hand down one of the best in the entire business. I wish i could give 10 stars!
My family and I have worked with Bert for over 7 years and have found him to be extremely honest, fair, and knowledgeable. In an area where there are all too many "tree guys" who know next to nothing about tree work, just looking to make a quick dollar, Bert stands out as a true professional arborist who takes pride in his work, in his company, and in caring for his clients. Highly recommended.
