We've used Barrett for everything from removal of entire trees, to trimming and removing large branches overhanging our property, to treating our trees and shrubs to keep them healthy. They're responsive, reliable, and never leave a mess behind. I've recommended them to several friends and neighbors and all of them have been pleased with the work done.

A tree and its stump needed to be removed in order to repair a fence. Barrett did a wonderful job. The tree was down quickly and the crew was very responsive. We will be using them for all of our future tree care needs.
