Customers say: Quick response

"We had several large pine trees, infested with pine beetles that had died and some had actually snapped in half. I saw many logs stacked up around the Wildewood golf course, so I asked management who they were using to clean up the diseased trees on the golf course. They highly recommended Jason Cowan of LTD Landscaping because he was professional, trustworthy and had a good crew. Well, I called Jason and he showed up on time and made some very helpful suggestions. He sent me an estimate and it was thorough. Now, I know no one enjoys paying to have dead trees removed, but Jason and the crew spent two days removing about 6 dead trees and a. great deal of debris and hauled it away. I was so impressed by their work ethic, that I decided to hire LTC Landscaping to regularly groom my yard. This is a big step for me because I am a Master Gardener and have always taken care of my own yard."

"Izzy and his team do great work. We've hired them for both a large fencing/gate project and smaller porch railing tasks, and both were completed on time and with great professionalism. Izzy excels at troubleshooting and finding creative fixes. I highly recommend Aztec Fencing!"

"We have hired Joel at Leatherneck Land Clearing to complete multiple projects around our homestead and couldn’t have been happier with the outcomes! We originally contracted them to assist with clearing and grading a section of land to build a 40’ x 60’ building. Throughout the process he was extremely patient with us as we changed our mind more than once on the location of the building site due to unforeseen circumstances and even helped guide us to achieve the best outcome possible. We were so pleased, we hired him again shortly after to thin and mulch a few acres of overgrown woods on the property and it completely transformed the landscape. We have recommended them to family and friends and will definitely be hiring them again in the future to help with more around our property. If you need quality work done, they are not only affordable but extremely communicative and I truly am glad we found them!"

"Jesse and Jason were so wonderful to work with along with JC and his son. We love the time spent in working out a design and they did a wonderful job pulling out our existing 30-year-old landscaping and replacing it with beautiful plants that were healthy and good size. We are beyond happy with the results and how they cleaned up the yard everyday after work until the project was done. We are recommending this company to everyone we know who is in need of a landscaping professional company, five stars plus!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can technically make a crawl space liveable, but the only way to do so is by converting it into a basement. While some crawl spaces are big enough to walk through and store large items, they lack appropriate insulation and space to be liveable.

Chipmunks dig their burrows about three feet deep and up to 30 feet long. The entrances can be two inches wide or more. Chipmunks are fiercely protective of their burrows and use them to protect the nuts and seeds they gather for the long winters.

A joint utility trench, or joint trench, is a long, buried ditch on a property that contains two or more utility lines rather than running the lines in multiple trenches. Some utilities, like gas and electric or electric and communication lines, are better suited to joint trenching, while others, like water and sewer, are not allowed to be in the same trench.

Excavation and grading are both generally necessary for designing your foundation, and leveling the ground where your foundation will go. These steps can also prepare the area by removing vegetation and anything else that could interfere with your home’s foundation.

The easier way to find buried sprinkler lines is to use the plan from the professionals who installed the system. If you don’t have professional plans, listen for running water on your lawn when you turn on the system. You may also spot wet areas, giving you an idea of where the heads are. Once you find the sprinkler heads, you’ll likely be able to connect the dots between them, revealing the system below.
