“The new turf field and track at Mineola High School has completely transformed the property. LandTek was an integral part is the design and completion of a facility that has tripled the amount of student use over the previous natural grass field.

That design featured a turf ‘walking track’ which provided a creative a solution for athlete safety in a confined space.”

“I was first introduced to LandTek in late 2009 as they finished construction on the pitch at Red Bull Arena in Harrison, NJ. I was just hired and under enormous pressure to succeed with opening day a few months away without any equipment or staff. Landtek treated me very well from day one, I know how demanding I was some might even say a pain in the a$$. The relationship remained strong over the years which led to the completion of the Red Bull Training Facility in Hanover, NJ. The 10 acres of natural grass playing surfaces used by the Red Bull soccer teams year round have won multiple awards and it all starts with a solid foundation that LandTek built.”

We found LandTek’s team to be extremely professional throughout the entire project and they melded seamlessly with our campus facility staff. LandTek’s Superintendent and Foreman worked tirelessly to provide excellent quality control in the field and kept our entire time up to date with progress.

COTY SKAGGS: SPORTS TURF AND OUTDOOR FACILITY MANAGER
VIRGINIA TECH
I would like to take this opportunity to let you know that Montgomery County Public Schools is extremely satisfied with the Athletic Field improvement projects that LandTek has completed at our facilities over the past several years. Our school system had little to no experience with what it takes to construct professional grade athletic facilities in this day and age. We had reservations starting design on several new projects after having difficult experiences with General Contractors constructing athletic facilities as part of new school construction projects in the past. It was clear after discussing cost proposals with your team that your company knows the industry and has the knowledge and resources to construct a game field.
During the negotiation process your management team helped our school division refine plans and specifications to not only reduce cost but to actually improve the final product. This was only possible because your team knows what they are doing. It is clear that your team has “seen it all” and understands the operation of sports facilities. Your knowledge prevented mistakes in our design from becoming project breaking issues after completion.
It was so refreshing to step foot on a project and see a superintendent with The LandTek Group onsite from sun up to sun down managing the work. Project flow was seamless and The LandTek Group demonstrated access to vast resources that allowed you to overcome problems that seemed insurmountable while still maintaining the schedule.
