Where We Started

Mike Creed and Katie O'Brien didn't start this company to build an empire. They started it because they knew what it felt like to need work done right on their own properties, and finding someone who cared as much as they did seemed impossible. Both born and raised right here in Conway, Florida, their roots in Central Florida run deep. Over 15 years ago, that frustration became focus.

What began as specialized tree service grew because homeowners kept asking for more. After handling a hurricane-damaged oak, the next call was about the driveway. After fixing concrete, someone asked about grading the property. Each job taught us something. Each conversation showed us a gap we could fill. By staying rooted in what we know and expanding thoughtfully, Creeds Outdoor Services became the kind of company that can handle everything from large tree replacement and crane work to complete landscape transformation.

We're still here. Still local. Still the people who pick up the phone at 3 a.m. when a storm brings down a tree. This isn't a franchise model or a corporate outfit. It's Mike and Katie, their team, and the knowledge that comes from treating your own home like the only one that matters.

What We've Learned

Fifteen years teaches you things no course can. The first lesson is that experience matters. You can't fake what happens when a massive oak leans the wrong way in a hurricane, or when concrete cracks two years in because it was poured wrong. We've seen it. We've learned from it. That's why you get hands-on expertise on every job, not a trainee with a quote sheet.

The second is that being local isn't a marketing phrase for us—it's a constraint we chose. We work in Orlando and the areas we know because we live here. Your property might be down the road from ours. We care about what happens next year, not just next week. That changes how you plan work.

The third is that emergencies happen. A tree falls at midnight. A storm arrives faster than expected. That's why we answer 24 hours a day. Not because it's good for business, but because we know what it feels like to be in that situation.

How We Work With You

When you call us, you're not entering a system. You're talking to people who've been in your position. We listen for what you actually need, not what we want to sell you. If it's an emergency, we move fast. If it's a project that takes planning, we plan it right. If it's something we can't do well, we'll tell you that too.

What clients notice is that we show up when we say we will, we explain what we're doing and why, and we leave your property in better condition than we found it. That's not a promise that sounds good. That's what happens when you're working on a street where your family might live next.

Whether you need tree service, concrete work, grading, landscaping, or crane work in Orlando, reach out. We're here to help—now and whenever you need us.
