Maine land work,
done with integrity

Mariner Property Services LLC is a locally owned excavation, land management, and property improvement company based in Castine, Maine. We serve homeowners, businesses, contractors, and municipalities across a wide stretch of Downeast and Mid-Coast Maine, from Bangor and Orono to Bar Harbor, Ellsworth, and everywhere in between. Every project we take on reflects the same values we started with: hard work, integrity, and attention to detail.

Founder Ashton Cushman is a Maine Maritime Academy graduate who brought the discipline and engineering mindset from his studies directly into the field. That background shapes how we approach every job. We read the land, plan the work carefully, and follow through on what we say we'll do. Whether a site needs grading before a new build or a driveway has been losing gravel for years, we show up with the right equipment and a clear plan.

Our services cover the full range of ground-up property work. We handle excavation, site preparation, land grading and leveling, trenching, culvert installation, and drainage solutions. We also do lot clearing, forestry mulching, brush removal, and erosion control for properties that need reclaiming or protecting. From septic installs to gravel driveway repair and installation, we take on the jobs that require real equipment and real experience.

On the property improvement side, we build retaining walls, paver patios, walkways, and stone steps. We install mulch, handle spring and fall clean-ups, and offer material delivery for customers who need supplies brought to the site. Lawn mowing rounds out our maintenance services for residential clients who want one reliable crew handling their property through the season.

Ashton puts it plainly: he treats every property as if it were his own. That mindset keeps the work honest. We are not chasing volume. We are building a reputation in communities we actually live and work in, from Castine and Orland to Searsport, Stockton Springs, Verona Island, Brooksville, Surry, Hampden, Hermon, Orrington, Holden, and beyond.

We are available every day from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. If you have a project coming up or a property problem that needs solving, call us at (207) 392-5667 or visit www.mpsllc207.com to request your free estimate. We are ready to get to work.

Ashton came to us at a new property with a huge meadow that was completely overrun with all sorts of things. He has done an amazing job taming it and maintaining it. He has also been really helpful with some other projects around the property. We are so glad we found him! We hope to get him involved in some landscaping and some other projects in the next few years.
