L & G Landscaping has been in business for over 5 years! Proudly serving Charlotte, NC and surrounding areas. We are guaranteed to leave you with a job well done! We specialize in all aspects of professional lawn care including monthly maintenance and bi-weekly mowing. When you smile we smile. Our role is to make you happy. Flexible pay and working schedule. Need a last minute yard cut before a big day? Call L&G and we will take care of you.

"I originally hired Isaac to aerate and reseed my lawn back in October. He came out on time and completed that job to my satisfaction. I was looking for a regular landscape company to mow and maintain my yard and inquired with Isaac. Isaac said he offered monthly mow and maintenance service and so I agreed to have him begin taking care of my landscape needs. Isaac said he would mow weekly in the summer and bi-weekly in the winter. We started the mow and maintain service after he aerated the lawn on October 18th. Unfortunately, I ended up seeing him only 2 times over the next 4 months (and not bi-weekly like he said) and he kept telling me not to worry that he would take care of me. Even if the lawn didn't need mowing I had leaves he could have blown and wouldn't come to remove the piling leaves. I had also hired Isaac to winterize my brand new irrigation system (in December) and then come back in the Spring to get it running again. Although he was happy to accept the money, he unfortunately never got the system running. Unfortunately Isaac has turned out to be very unreliable and disappointing with the overall service. I would not recommend him for any landscaping services now or in the future."

"The technician, Broderick, was very kind, quick, helpful & personable. I had a simple request of needing to remove an overly-tightened garden hose attached to my spigot. Broderick got it done in a spiffy but stayed a few extra minutes to recommend different hoses and attachments to me for the future, instead of rushing to move onto the next job, which I appreciated."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Most states do not require excavation companies to hold specific licenses, but many require at least a contractor’s license. Additionally, heavy equipment operators require a special commercial equipment license to operate machinery required for excavation. You can use Angi’s contractor licensing tool to confirm that an excavation company you’re considering hiring is fully licensed. You should also make sure that the excavation team is fully insured before allowing them to work on your property.

Hardscaping often requires preparation of the ground in the area where the feature is being installed. This can include digging, compacting, and leveling the soil, ensuring adequate drainage, and removing any existing plants. The extent of preparation needed will depend on the type and size of the hardscaping feature being installed.

A perc test takes an average of around two hours, but it can range from one hour up to around six hours. Perc tests that require wider or deeper holes and those that require multiple holes dug throughout your property will take longer because there’s more excavation involved. The actual filling of the hole and monitoring to gauge the rate of percolation should take under an hour per hole.

It all depends on the scope of the project. A trencher can certainly save time and energy, but you might not need to dig that deep in the first place. Aside from the depth of the trench, the quality of the soil matters. If it’s light, soft soil, you might try a shovel first. However, if the soil is rocky and hard or there are obstructions in it, like tree roots, a machine trencher might be the better option.

Call 811 to locate and mark the gas lines at least three days before digging. In many areas, you can dig within 18 inches of the lines, though in some locations, the distance may be further. Check local regulations, as you may need a utility company representative onsite when digging. Document your calls to 811 and precautions taken to avoid gas lines. A homeowner can be held liable for hitting a gas line in some cases, but contacting the proper authorities and following all guidelines can offer protection.
