Frequently Asked Questions

We are based in Valparaiso, IN (46383) and cover a 150-mile radius across Northwest Indiana, Northern Illinois, and Southwest Michigan. This includes surrounding hubs like Crown Point, Chicago’s South Suburbs, and the New Buffalo/St. Joseph areas.

Traditional land clearing involves removing trees, roots, and vegetation completely, often requiring heavy hauling or burning. Forestry mulching is an eco-friendly, single-step process that grinds trees and brush directly into organic mulch on-site. This enriches the soil, prevents erosion, and eliminates the need for hauling away debris.

Yes. Whether you are a homeowner looking to clear a couple of overgrown acres for a backyard expansion or a commercial developer needing full site preparation and grading for a major building project, we have the equipment and expertise to handle jobs of any size.

Land emergencies and winter weather don't wait for business hours. We operate 24 hours a day, 7 days a week for urgent site needs, emergency storm cleanup, and round-the-clock commercial and residential snow plowing across Midwest winters.

Called LT to do some what I would consider a “small” clearing job as our lot borders overgrown woods. He came out in two days and made our property look the best it has since we built ten years ago and for a great price! Very nice man to deal with and has the tools to get the job done quickly and efficiently. I would highly recommend this company!

I was introduced to LT by an arborist who was clearing some dead trees from a piece of property I have when he asked me if I had ever heard of “forestry mulching.” I hadn’t but he went on to explain that he knows a company that does a great job of clearing woods. I had a bunch of trashy small undergrowth, invasive species and just a big mess growing under the canopy of the large trees that were healthy. I met up with LT the owner who came to the site and gave me a price after we discussed. He showed up with a very nice piece of machinery, on tracks with the mulcher on the front and went to town. After taking out all the nasty little stuff, mulching it all up and grading the terrain, it looks like a park in those woods now. LT is very nice, easy to work with and I would definitely hire him again and recommend to friends.

Thomas Land Services resurfaced my gravel driveway in Westville, In. It had developed several large holes over the years and was becoming nearly impassable. It is now flat and sold and looks great. They were a great company to work with, always on time, and they stand behind their work. They even called me after to make sure I'm still happy. I would highly recommend them.

Called Thomas Land Services to level and prepare my driveway prior to pouring concrete. LT was very helpful and professional. Decided to also use him to clear a walking trail behind our house. Prices were reasonable and finished timely.
