They met with me a couple of times during the project to show me what had been done and what limitations they were looking at based on the condition of the concrete. They completed the work and showed me what they had accomplished. I was extremely satisfied with their work. Great team and good representatives of LRE Ground Services/Foundation Repair."

"Dean was very professional. He came out. He assessed the area. He gave me some ideas of what type of palm tree to replace the one I had, which was totally burnt by the frost we had here in Winter Haven. I found a palm I really liked, and Dean searched high and low to get me this specific one. He was determined to find it to satisfy his customer, which would be me. His crew was extremely clean no mess was left behind. I am very happy with my new palm. I would definitely recommend this company. Thanks again Dean for all your hard work."
"I want to express my sincere appreciation and respect for the owner and workers for this great company and the great people the company has on their team before it gets to be too long since they finished the many jobs I had them do throughout my home, The owner and workers were a Godsend and I'll never forget that. The quality of professionalism and work is second to none from what I witnessed. I've been in construction for over 35 years and have never come across any Contractor, sub-contractor, etc. that did a job to the letter as agreed and expected to high quality and standards. You can quote me on this. These guys are the Best of the Best! I have more home projects coming up. The quality of work, on time, professional treatment and reasonable cost were above and beyond, so I will always use this company for my home needs. Thank you for everything. God Bless you and yours and the other guys. Sincerely, Bob"

Just a few hours later I was sent a detailed and comprehensive quote for what my project would cost me, he even made suggestions that actually saved me money. His crew arrived on the date and time scheduled and did an OUTSTANDING job of converting my dried-out front lawn into a beautiful drought-tolerant and environmentally friendly landscape. They completed their work on time, on budget and cleaned up at the end of each dayâ s work. I definitely will use their services again; I have a backyard to rehabilitate!"
