My neighbors tree was hit by lightning and fell into my yard. This morning, I called Excel. They have already cut up the tree and hauled everything away. Service was excellent and reasonably priced. I am very grateful!

The crew at Excel Lawns and Landscape took care of lawn aeration and overseeding this fall which made yard work a breeze. Save your time and your back by letting them do the heaving lifting. I will hire them again for some of my other lawn care chores next year.

Excel Lawns & Landscape did an amazing job. We needed to change our landscaping after a neighbor put up fence that changed the esthetic of our backyard. We agreed on a design and, when I changed my mind, he was unbelievably accommodating. We are much happier with the look of our backyard now.

I can't say enough good things. The job was scheduled and then accomplished with Excellent results on the day promised. I will be doing more business with this company. Nice Work!

I have had the good fortune to have Mike DeWiese and his crew at Excel Lawn and Landscaping work on the landscaping of my house. Last year the retaining wall on part of the front and one whole side of my house was falling over. Mike and Ryan worked diligently on it by taking the wall completely apart, leveled it out and put in a drain system; attaching it to the downspout so that the rain going down the downspout would end up draining outside the wall and not push against the wall.

The drain system not only works real well but the retaining wall is now very attractive to look at. They have also trimmed all my bushes and trees and just recently created a decorative rock bed around three sides of my house with edging and white rock which really gave a fresh new curb appeal to my home. At the outset they get to know exactly what you want done and work with you on scheduling a firm date for the project to be completed.

Their quotes are very reasonable and have always fit my budget. Their workmanship and professionalism is above reproach and of the highest quality. I would highly recommend Mike DeWiese and his company to anyone.

I called and they actually answered the phone and it didn't go to voicemail. They came to see the job and gave me a fair quote and date when they would be able to do it. Job was completed on time and I'm very happy with the work of the team.
