"I really appreciated the great excavation and fill work that Roland Gagnon did for me. This was a driveway drainage project that required low spot filling and proper grading of the area. The driveway now has the proper slope and is draining properly. Roland went above and beyond my expectations, he will be my first call for any future work."

"I posted on Angi and Matt responded immediately and was friendly and professional. He made an access entry from the original basement wall into my addition. There was little to no cleanup for me after! Job well done to Matt and Dickie. I highly recommend Smithtown Landworks."

"We hired Waterscapes when our initial contractor abandoned the project and took our money, and they did a great job. They were very communicative and sent regular status updates to us which we appreciated since we lived out of state. Additionally, they finished the project in 10 days which was really impressive considering that they had to basically start from scratch They also had competitive prices and cost-effective solutions to problems that satisfied all of our neighbors' concerns."
