Six Decades of Honest Tree Care, Built on Doing Right by Our Neighbors
Atlas Tree Service has cared for the trees and properties of Northern California since 1962. What began as a small tree service grounded in hard work and quality craftsmanship has grown, under current owner Leonel Serrato, into a trusted partner for homeowners, HOAs, and commercial property owners throughout the East Bay. After more than 60 years, our purpose hasn’t changed: quality work, honest service, and treating customers the right way.
Our Story
When Atlas opened its doors in 1962, the business was built on a simple idea — show up, do excellent work, and stand behind it. That reputation grew the company. We earned it by taking on the challenging projects others avoided, investing in professional equipment and skilled crews, and delivering dependable service job after job.
Over the decades, Atlas expanded from routine tree maintenance into large-scale removals, crane work, landscape services, and full property support. Today the company continues to grow — modernizing operations and building toward a broader property maintenance platform — while still holding tight to the values it was founded on more than six decades ago.
OUR STAFF
Meet the hardworking professionals who are committed to providing reliable service and treating every project like it’s their own.
How We Work
One of the biggest lessons we’ve learned is that communication matters just as much as the quality of the work itself. Property managers and facility teams need vendors who are responsive, proactive, and easy to work with — so that’s exactly how we operate.
Transparency and follow-through
We show up when we say we will and communicate clearly from the first estimate to the final cleanup
We listen first
Every property is different, so we start by understanding your goals and budget, then build practical, long-lasting solutions
Honest recommendations
We advise what your trees and property actually need, never what pads an invoice
Cleaner and safer than we found it
We leave every property in better shape than when we arrived
Experience and Technology
Atlas serves residential and commercial property owners across the Bay Area, from individual homeowners to property managers, HOAs, and large commercial clients. Our range of work spans routine tree maintenance, complex removals, crane operations, landscape services, and ongoing property support.
What makes us unique is longevity — both of our employees and our customer relationships. Many of our team members have been with the company for decades, creating a culture built around experience, loyalty, safety, and pride in workmanship. That consistency is why property managers, HOAs, commercial clients, and families have trusted Atlas across generations.
How We Protect Your Investment
Some companies in this industry cut corners — prioritizing low pricing over quality, safety, and long-term results. That can mean poor workmanship, inconsistent crews, inadequate insurance, or recommendations that aren’t truly in the customer’s best interest.
Atlas takes the opposite approach. We rely on properly trained crews, professional communication, safe operations, and honest guidance. We combine old-school reliability with a modern approach to project management and customer service, so clients gain a responsive partner who understands scheduling, site safety, and protecting property value — not just another vendor.
Proudly Serving the East Bay
From our home base in Concord, CA, Atlas serves communities throughout Contra Costa County and the surrounding East Bay. After more than six decades here, our crews understand this region’s trees, soils, and seasons in a way that only time provides — and that local knowledge shows up in every recommendation we make.
