The original owner, Duncan Brooks started his landscape maintenance business in the early 1980s and then went on to earn his Bachelor of Arts degree in Earth Science from Baylor University in 1986. By 1990 he had sold his landscaping portion of the business to specialize in arboriculture. For 41 years the primary services have included everything from diagnosis and treatment of trees to technical removals. His company specializes in implementation of various tree preservation programs, spraying, fertilization and land clearing. In 1995 he became the first certified arborist in the greater Central Texas area. Duncan Brooks continued to run his company with the highest ethical standards and maintain an extensive level of knowledge regarding arboricultural issues. Because of his professional background, in 2006 he was invited to participate in a new program offered by the International Society of Arboriculture to become trained as one of the first Texas Oak Wilt Certified Arborists in the state of Texas and later Texas Oak Wilt Qualified in 2017.
His son, Duncan Brooks, grew up in the tree industry and began working full time in the company in 2009. He continued to train under the guidance of his father, who was well respected as one the premier arborists in the industry. He also attended extensive training and specialization programs to become well versed in the tree business. He is a Certified Arborist as well as Texas Oak Wilt Qualified and studied Business Management at Tarleton State University. Duncan Brooks, Jr. began managing the business upon his father’s passing in June 2019 and is committed to maintaining the company at the highest standards with which it has been run for over 37 years.
