Kevin Scott Mcquaide

• Certified Treecare Safety Professional
(Certification #: 05007)
 
• ACRT - Line Clearance Certified

​Barberton born and raised, Scotty (A.K.A. Squirrel) grew up watching Barberton Tree Service through his window as they cleared all of the new lots in the Austin Estates development. Being neighbors and good friends with the Luck family, Scotty could not wait until he was old enough to be a part of the team and drive one of those awesome maroon trucks and climb trees alongside the men he looked up to. As soon as he was old enough, Keith let him get to work. After graduating from Barberton Highschool in 2004, he made a full-time commitment to the company and never once backed out. Scotty has served as a groundsman, crane hook-up, climber, foreman, estimator, and safety coordinator. He also supervises all the crews and serves as the new-hire recruiter. He has always looked up to Keith, Lisa and Bryan and is extremely proud to be on the same team as our amazing crews, looking out for them every day. Whether it’s providing an emergency estimate, ensuring job site safety on your property, our calling you in for an interview, Scotty will always show you a profound level of care, respect and professionalism. Scotty just can’t get enough of being outdoors. He is obsessed with any kind of nature related topic. Whenever he is not out and about on job sites, you can find him hiking and camping in the forest, or on the river fly-fishing and paddling his canoe through rapids!
