Company Background
LA Services is a Chicago-based landscape contractor owned and operated by Lewis, who has spent most of his life working in the green industry. We serve both residential and commercial clients across the city, offering design, installation, and maintenance for landscapes and hardscapes. Our work includes earthmoving, regrading, landscaping, irrigation construction and repair, as well as concrete and masonry projects like retaining walls, patios, walkways, and driveways. We also specialize in fence and gate installation, repair, painting, staining, and weatherproofing—including both manual and automatic gates. In addition to hardscape and fence work, we provide comprehensive tree, shrub, and lawn care: planting, pruning, removal, transplanting, and disease or insect management. Lewis thrives when clients challenge him to think creatively, and he treats each project as a chance to build something unique. LA Services is located in Chicago and regularly works with property owners in neighborhoods such as Lincoln Park, Wicker Park, Bucktown, and the Loop. We understand the specific challenges of Chicago's climate, especially the freeze-thaw cycles that cause wood fences to crack and hardware to corrode. We address these issues by using appropriately treated lumber and corrosion-resistant fasteners, along with proper sealing and drainage techniques to extend the life of your fence for Chicago's winters and summers.

Q&A
How does LA Services handle wood fence cracking and hardware corrosion caused by Chicago's freeze-thaw cycles?
Chicago's winter freeze-thaw cycles can be tough on fences. We address wood cracking by using pressure-treated or naturally rot-resistant lumber and applying high-quality weatherproofing sealants that expand and contract with the wood. For hardware, we use corrosion-resistant stainless steel or galvanized fasteners and hinges to prevent rust. We also ensure proper post drainage and concrete footings to reduce moisture trapping, which helps your fence withstand both the cold winters and humid summers.
Can LA Services help with both the design and installation of a new patio or retaining wall in Chicago?
Yes, we offer full design services and installation for patios, porches, terraces, and retaining walls. Whether you need a custom hardscape layout or a structural retaining wall, we manage everything from concept to completion. Our team handles earthmoving, grading, and concrete work to make sure the project fits your property’s specific drainage and soil conditions. We serve both residential and commercial properties across the city.
Does LA Services provide ongoing maintenance for shrubs, trees, and lawns in addition to fence and gate repair?
Absolutely. We offer comprehensive maintenance packages that include shrub care, tree pruning and removal, stump grinding, lawn care, and irrigation repair. We also service fences and gates—including painting, staining, and weatherproofing—alongside automatic and manual gate repair. Regular maintenance can prevent small issues like insect damage or cracked posts from becoming major problems, especially with Chicago's seasonal weather changes.
