Who we are

Urban arborists with a calm pace

Our crews live and work in Burton, Michigan, so we know the alleyways, setbacks, and species that define this area. We set mats, protect stonework, and keep sidewalks open with clear guides. We believe tree care should feel like hospitality: polite crews, tidy staging, and neighbors thanking you afterward.

We map utilities, lights, planter boxes, and gardens before a single rope goes up. Because we plan meticulously, jobs finish on time and without surprise damage.

Mindset

Safety rituals + storytelling

Every saw, helmet, and rope is checked daily. We also explain the why behind each cut: airflow, load reduction, sunlight for turf, clearance for roofs and lines.

We sweep, blow, and rake so driveways, stoops, and patios feel refreshed. It is the small touchesreturning moved pots, resetting gatesthat show we care.

Although there were Native Americans and trappers whom lived on land earlier, and even some who attempted to settle by there, many of the original settlers of Burton came from the towns of Adams and Henderson in Jefferson County, New York. For 20 years, this area was known as the Atherton settlement, after brothers Shubael and Perus Atherton and nephew Pliny Atherton Skinner (and later joined by another brother, Adonijah), who settled on the Thread Creek in 1835. Atherton descendants still live in Burton in 2014.
