Meet The Mechanical and Shoreline Restoration Leadership Team
Jeff Castellani
Director of Mechanical Operations
Jeff Castellani serves as Director of Mechanical Operations at SOLitude. He leads SOLitude’s mechanical division with invasive weed control services, surveys, reports, proposals and GIS mapping. Jeff is a licensed applicator in many states across New England and maintains licensing and industry certificates for Construction Supervisor, OSHA, Qualified Rigger and Signal, as well as Boater Safety.
Jeff is a graduate of Southern New Hampshire University and holds a degree in Business Studies with a concentration in Finance. He spent the first 16 years of his career in banking and worked as a branch administrator, training manager, merger and acquisition project manager, and commercial loan liaison, and eventually obtained Vice President status. In 2001, Jeff left the banking industry to pursue a new challenge and spend more time with his family. He obtained a Massachusetts Construction Supervisor License, after two years of rehabilitation experience with commercial and residential properties. With a desire to excise both his intellect and body – and also work outdoors – Jeff accepted a position with his neighbor’s environmental company. His environmental and biology experience was gained both on the job and self-taught. Jeff saw an opportunity to expand the mechanical method of aquatic vegetation control and detritus management, and that evolved into his current position. He is driven by developing career paths for individuals, and providing an excellent customer experience.
Jeff is a caring father and husband. When not at work, he likes to spend time with family and friends, freshwater fish and pursue oceanfront activities. Jeff also enjoys helping out the community by coaching his local Pop Warner and Little League teams. Not quite able to give up his financial background, he also serves as the treasurer for both youth sport Boards. Jeff values helping to develop core principles and skills in young men and women. He takes pride in any endeavor presented, and looks at each challenge as an opportunity rather than a problem.
Jennifer Bustos-Fitz
Operations Manager, Shoreline Erosion Repair

I Can’t Say Enough Good Things
I want you to know that the whole team at SOLitude was tremendous in achieving my dream! Rob, the hydro-rake operator, was phenomenal! I can’t say enough good things. I am so happy that I worked with you guys. The results are just incredible. Many many thanks!

Invasive Weeds Are Under Control
We have been using SOLitude’s services for the past three years for managing the neighborhood lake. Their service is excellent. All type of weeds including water hyacinth is now under control without harming the marine ecosystem. The technician who services the lake always makes sure all individual complaints of the resident are taken care of. Will definitely recommend their service, especially for big ponds and lakes.

SOLitude Provided the Perfect Solution
Our Club was more interested in a mechanical removal approach to our weed problem versus a broad-spectrum chemical treatment. Jeff Castellani and his team developed a plan that was well suited for our environmentally sensitive location. The mechanical hydro-raking service that SOLitude provided was the perfect solution and worked very well in our shallow irrigation pond… We look forward to working with Jeff and his professional staff in the coming years.

SOLitude Made A Huge Difference
Thank you for jumping on our request to have the weeds looked at and treated. It has made a huge difference in the short couple of weeks since the crew was out spraying. All of us on the SW corner of the lake greatly appreciate the approval and quick execution of the treatment!

Nothing But Compliments for SOLitude
SOLitude has been managing our lake for the past two years. Through their efforts, the lake’s water quality has improved tremendously. Even with one of the hottest and dryest seasons, I received nothing but compliments on the water clarity, as well as positive feedback from fishermen about the abundance of healthy fish.
Darren Brooks
City District Manager, Parker, CO

Satisfied & Grateful for Great Service
SOLitude is an excellent company that has been servicing my lake for several years. Dominic has been overseeing our program for over 20 years. His experience, knowledge, professionalism, and integrity are outstanding. Under his leadership, our lake has improved dramatically and it continues to get better every year. Additionally, Amanda has played a key role since she joined SOLitude. She always promptly replies to my inquiries and provides outstanding customer service. We are completely satisfied and grateful for the great service we receive and the results are clearly evident in our beautiful lake.
Steve Slocum
Lake Association President, Ashburnham, MA
Our Clear Lake Wouldn’t Be Possible Without SOLitude
Our Lake Association believes that good service and good results deserve a positive review. We’ve been doing business with SOLitude for about 25 years. The results of their treatments are quite obvious because of the amount of recreational use our lake gets during the summer months that wouldn’t be possible without the weed control SOLitude provides. Back in 1986, the lake became almost unusable because of the invasive weed problem. After two years of treatments, the lake became what it is today – a beautiful body of water that is usable for all summer recreation. SOLitude has been great to do business with. Their people are responsive to any issues and are always ready and willing to help in any way they can. We are happy to recommend them to any lake or pond association that may need assistance dealing with weed problems.
Frank Fiorentino
Lake Association President, Ashburnham, MA
My Pond Is Finally Nice to Look At
This company is amazing! I called and explained the issues I was having with my pond, and Josh came out and assessed my pond. After doing so, he was able to put together a regiment that helped bring my pond back to where it is nice to look at! I would recommend this company to all of my friends and family!
William Youngblood
Private Landowner, TX
Created An Oasis All Can Enjoy
Our community has a one-acre pond that SOLitude has managed for our 200 homes development. They have done a fine job in maintaining the health of the pond so that people can fish and enjoy the surrounding area, wildlife, and gardens. It is a true oasis in a declining area of green spaces for all to enjoy.
Andrea Kowaleski
Property Manager, Marriottsville, MD
SOLitude Came to Our Rescue
When SOLitude came to our rescue, our pond was covered in water lettuce. As each month went by, the pond became clearer and clearer until now it is completely clear and I am completely grateful that the beautiful, clear pond that was there when we moved in 36 years ago, is once more. Thanks to Mike and everyone at SOLitude who made this possible!
Debra Krogh
Private Landowner, Pinellas Park, FL
Pleasure to Work With
For the past 2 years as a member of our neighborhood board, I worked personally with Mitchell of SOLitude Lake Management. Our neighborhood has over 40 lakes & ponds. I can honestly say it was a pleasure to work with this vendor.

It was a pleasure to work with such a knowledgeable representative. Thanks!

Highly Recommend SOLitude
SOLitude services all the water, weed, and algae requirements for our Condominium Lake which 7 buildings back up to. Our Aquatic Specialist Ean does a fabulous job taking care of all our needs and has many owners complimenting on how great our water looks. Ean is just a phone call away and shows up immediately. He is always friendly and very knowledgeable and takes care of the issues. I would highly recommend this company to anyone for your lake water needs.
Doug Berlet
Board President, Naples, FL
From Swamp to Beautiful Water
For about 30 years I watched the encroachment of weeds across my pond, limiting not only our recreational use but our aesthetic appreciation as well. SOLitude Lake Management came in with their hydro-raking harvester and clear it all out! It was the first time I could swim across the entire pond! No swamp, just beautiful water that passers-by slow down to look at.

I hired SOLitude to help me out with a new pond in West Virginia. Heather was super helpful and knowledgeable in walking me through the process. She introduced me to Robert and they are simply the BEST. I have a lot of questions and they are super patient, helpful, and responsive. Most of all they both are knowledgeable (and pedigreed) in the world of aquatic life and health. It was a great decision to contract with SOLitude.

Our neighborhood has been working with SOLitude and we have been extraordinarily happy.

As the manager of wetlands and open water for my community, I work with SOLitude Lake Management closely. They have helped us define our vision and achieve our goals.
