I have to say that excel has been doing an extremely good job at keeping my lawn looking good. As much as I enjoy mowing my own yard, I will definitely keep using them and enjoying the time I get not having to mow. I highly recommend giving excel a chance at making your lawn look fantastic. I will also enjoy not having to shovel this winter as I will let excel take care of that for me as well. Keep up the good work

We have had an outstanding experience with Excel Lawn & Landscape! Within 48 hours of calling, Mike was at our home helping us with a fungus that had invaded our yard. Less than a week later, the yard is showing significant improvement. Mike is very responsive to questions and knowledgeable. I love that he is willing to work with us on actions we can take to coordinate our efforts with his. He chose a very reasonable course of action for our lawn issues and the price is very fair. We plan to also use Excel for aeration and seeding this fall.

Thank you Mike to you and your crew for the outstanding Five Step Lawn Care Treatment, aeration and seeding youve done the past few years. I so appreciate you and your teams kindness, suggestions, professionalism and your reasonable prices to make it all possible. I must say I absolutely Love the weed control granules you put down in all my flower gardens. It is absolutely awesome. A must try for everyone. Thanks again for your outstanding service.

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.

Thank you to Excel Lawns and Landscape. The recent ice storm had the sidewalks and driveway a sheet of ice. They came out twice to treat the areas. I was impressed with not only the work they performed but also that I did not have to call them to remind them about my property. Rarely do I encounter from others the great service Excel Lawns & Landscape provided. I am thrilled I hired them.
