Bartlett Tree Service

"Thinning/trimming and/or removing trees not only protects our building and cars from potential damage by those trees during storms, but will also aid in the overall beautification of our property." And so we woke up to a loud crushing sound as the branches were being stuffed in to the huge grinder. I am all for keeping the trees in order, as we have experienced first hand what a fallen tree does to the power wires that hang overhead and being without electricity for a week in Milwaukee. Thank goodness our power lines are underground here, and if a tree fell on our 2005 Subaru Forrester parked on the street that wouldn't be such a bad thing. It would be worse to have to park a new car on the street and exposed to the elements - including a tree falling on it. The tiny condo we bought eight years ago in the big white building on Capitol Hill hasn't changed too much and the neighborhood continues to look better and better. Unfortunately there isn't a whole lot that can or will be done about the infrastructure problems - like bad pipes. I suppose you just have to put up with it if your preference is to live around here in an historical neighborhood. Some days it isn't so bad and we are hard pressed to think of an alternative at this time - until the next water leak.
