I had a great experience with Barrett. Greg went above and beyond for a consultation, taking time to explain how to care for all the large plants on our property and even looking at some of our neighbor's large trees. We contracted them to remove five large yew shrubs and the price and quality of the work was very…

100% satisfied. Barrett walked the area, identified a plan, promptly removed a dead oak, and established a schedule for other work. They cleaned up after the tree removal, as well. I could not be more satisfied.

My garden has been flourishing for many years under the stewardship of Barrett Tree Service. They take care of all aspects of tree care including the removal of a very large Norway Maple, yearly winter pruning, bio feeding as well as planting many additional specimens. Working with their expert arborist, Mr. Andac…

Everyone I interacted with at Barrett Tree was friendly, polite and professional. I've used 3 or 4 different tree companies over the years and Barrett Tree is by far the best. I will use them again without hesitation.

Barrett Tree East has been maintaining our trees for over 10 years. We have an assigned arborist that we work with who knows the property. They are professional, knowledgeable, responsive and do excellent work. We have a very large property and have used other tree companies over the years. Barrett is by far the best.

We've had Barrett do the work on our trees for about ten years. I can't say enough good things about them. The arborists are thoughtful, knowledgeable, and genuinely nice people.

What a breath of fresh air they are. They are professional, on-time (early), expert and efficient. They arrived at my house early. The team lead walked the property with me and reviewed what was to be done. Then they split up and started working. They removed a Colorado Blue Spruce that was sickly from a very…
