Plant Analysis and Diagnostics

One of the main reasons commercial property owners and managers contact an arborist is to determine the cause of a tree health problem or to identify and treat a specific pest or disease infestation. This is an area that Bartlett arborists excel due to the continual training they receive in the latest pest and disease problems and diagnostic techniques at the Bartlett Tree Research Laboratory based at the University of Reading. The Bartlett Plant Diagnostic Clinic analyses more than 2,000 plant and soil samples each year to ensure accurate diagnosis and treatment programmes, allowing us to help our clients in a way our competitors cannot.
