Excavation & Tree Cleanup
Getting the ground right first
Land-Scape Contracting provides excavation for residential and commercial projects in Peterborough and the surrounding area. That includes site preparation and grading, trenching for utilities, drainage solutions, excavation for foundations and landscaping, and moving material where it needs to go.
We also clear land, overgrown areas and debris, and clean up after tree and brush work so the site is ready for what comes next, whether that is a new lawn, a patio or construction.
Our crew runs compact excavators and a skid steer, so the same team that prepares your site can build the patio, driveway or landscaping on top of it. We work efficiently and accurately, with as little disruption to the rest of your property as possible.

FAQ
Questions homeowners ask
Anything else on your mind? Call us and ask. We are happy to talk it through.
My yard holds water after rain. Can you help?
Often, yes. Drainage problems usually come down to grading, soil or where water is being directed. We will look at the site during a free visit and recommend a solution, such as regrading or a drainage bed, in your quote.
Can you clear an overgrown area so we can build on it?
Yes. We clear land, brush and debris and prepare the ground for landscaping, a patio or construction. We will confirm what is involved after seeing the site.
Do you dig trenches for utilities?
Yes, trenching for utilities is one of our excavation services. We will discuss the route and requirements with you during the site visit.
Can you handle the excavation and the build?
Yes. Because we do excavation, hardscaping, concrete and landscaping, one crew can take your project from bare ground to the finished surface.
What happens after I request a quote?
We call you to talk through the project and book a free site visit. At the visit we assess the scope and take measurements, then you receive a detailed, itemized quote within the day that lays out materials, labour and the overall scope.
