About Guardians of the Canopy

AT GUARDIANS OF THE CANOPY, WE DON'T JUST CARE FOR TREES, WE STAND FOR THEM. THE BUSINESS WAS BORN OUT OF A SIMPLE TRUTH: TREES ARE LIVING LEGACIES. THEY WITNESS OUR MILESTONES, SHADE OUR HOMES, AND HOLD HISTORY OF THE LAND THEY GROW ON. AS AN ISA CERTIFIED ARBORIST, WITH NEARLY A DECADE OF EXPERIENCE, I HAVE SEEN HOW EASILY THESE SILENT GIANTS HAVE BEEN OVERLOOKED OR LOST DUE TO RUSHED REMOVALS. THAT'S WHY I CREATED GUARDIANS OF THE CANOPY, TO CHANGE THE WAY TREE CARE IS DONE IN CENTRAL-TEXAS. WE FOLLOW THE HIGHEST STANDARDS, EVERY SERVICE, CONSULTATION, AND TREATMENT WE OFFER, IS GROUNDED IN ISA BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES AND ANSI A300 STANDARDS. BUT OUR PURPOSE RUNS DEEPER THAN PROTOCOL. FOR US, THIS WORK IS PERSONAL, I AM THOMAS BURNS AND I LEAD EVERY ASPECT OF THIS BUSINESS IN THE FIELD, FROM SOIL RESTORATION AND HEALTH ASSESSMENTS TO CLIENT CONSULTATIONS. MY WIFE, KATLYNN, SUPPORTS THE BUSINESS BEHIND THE SCENES, HANDLING COMMUNICATIONS, PLANNING AND OPERATIONS. OUR TWO YOUNG SONS, ROWAN AND EMMITT, ARE THE HEARTBEAT OF OUR VISION. IT IS THEIR FUTURE AND THE FUTURE OF FAMILIES LIKE YOURS, THAT INSPIRES US TO PROTECT THE CANOPY ABOVE US TODAY. MY FATHER IN-LAW DAVID, ALSO PLAYS A VITAL ROLE IN DAILY OPERATIONS, BRINGING WISDOM, HARD WORK, AND SHARED VALUES TO EVERYTHING WE DO. TOGETHER WE ARE A MULTI-GENERATIONAL TEAM, WORKING WITH A SINGLE MISSION: TO KEEP TREES HEALTHY, SAFE, AND THRIVING FOR GENERATIONS TO COME.
