Creative Tree & Stump LLC is Brighton's locally owned tree service company. 30+ years of Front Range experience, crane ownership, 24/7 emergency dispatch, and in-house stump grinding — all from one crew, no subcontractors.
Creative Tree & Stump LLC is based right here in Brighton at 474 S 36th Ave — not a franchise, not a call center. Owner Shawn Brandau has 30+ years of hands-on arboriculture experience and personally oversees every job. Every service we offer is performed by our own trained team — no subcontracting, ever.
Brighton's Front Range conditions are demanding: Chinook wind gusts of 40–80+ mph, alkaline clay soil (pH 7.5–8.5), late-winter ice storms, and Emerald Ash Borer confirmed in Adams County since 2019. We work in these conditions every single day.
