Cruz Construction & landscape

Highly Recommended by Jen’s List member, lschatteles@aol.com

Lynn has used Cruz Construction for the past 12 years. Her several landscape / hardscape experiences with Jose Cruz have always been positive, professional, and satisfactory. In fact, she has referred several family members, friends, and business associates to him as well over the years, too. She has had several jobs from small details to large projects completely done without problems from Cruz Construction & landscape and has always been pleased with the outcome. She and her husband highly recommend Cruz Construction & landscape for your hardscaping and landscaping needs.

Don’t Wait. Vaccinate.
Vaccines are the most effective way to protect children, teens, adults and seniors against serious disease. They also help stop the spread of highly contagious disease in our schools and community, like whooping cough and the flu. It’s easy to find out which vaccines are right for you or your loved ones by calling your doctor or clinic. But for everyone’s health and well-being, don’t wait.
