Posted on Shae GalczynskiDecember 21, 2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. If I could give 10 Stars I would!! Excel has now done 3 big projects for me and each time has been 1. Extremely competitive with pricing 2. Communicating thoroughly 2. Over the top with their clean-up after. They have installed a large retaining wall, a full privacy fence and just finished up cutting back our ginormous tree! I am also a Realtor and recommend them to ALL of our clients. You will be so thrilled to work with Joe Hirst and his employees! Call Excel asap!(:Posted on Gina Studer-HuntNovember 15, 2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Joe (owner) is conscientious and hardworking. His crew did a nice job adding new sod to sections of our lawn that were messed up by a lawn service. Joe returned and did finish work until it was completed to his satisfaction.Posted on Shannon MorganNovember 2, 2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

I had a wonderful experience with Excel Landscaping! The owner, Joe Hirst knew exactly what the old French drain issue was and was here with an amazing crew in 10 days time as opposed to months from other companies. His crew was so careful with my lawn and replaced the soil and sod so there was very little disturbance! He also was very reasonable compared to larger companies that did this work.Posted on Kelly TomekAugust 13, 2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Joe and the guys at Excel Landscaping were incredible! They removed two hugely overgrown Bradford Pears from my front yard. They finished the job in less than three hours and left my property cleaner than when they arrived. I will definitely use them again and highly recommend them!Posted on Ben DuttonAugust 4, 2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

It's in a pristine state now and they did it in just one morning.Posted on Lisa DehneJuly 25, 2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
