Landscaping reviews in Ankeny, Iowa

Signed up for yard treatment hoping for better service than the big boys like TruGreen. Nope. They showed up with the same disinterested employees who never step off the rider sprayer and burned a big hole in my grass.

Shoutout to Nolte and Son’s Snow Removal Service for always keeping my driveway clean and clear. ❄️ They’re reliable, quick, and do great work every time. Highly recommend!

We used Nolte and sons this year for snow removal. They are amazing. The first snow at 10” , we saw them here at mid day with a midsize tractor blowing snow off the driveway. At midnight, they returned to clear the sidewalks and entry. The second 5”, we found them here at 7am on Sunday with a crew clearing the snow. They have the crew as well as the equipment as well as commitment to handle any snowstorm.

We had them do a stone fire pit with large flagstone in our backyard for us. From start to finish we were extremely happy with communication, their meticulous work, and the final outcome of the project! We worked with Kate, who works on the designing end. She was absolutely lovely and so helpful to work with! She explained things very well and made sure we were getting exactly what we wanted in our fire pit in every detail. Along the way we made several changes and they were very accommodating and easy to work with. Kate was always very accessible to get ahold of for questions or concerns . I would also like to mention the two guys Brian & Dwight that worked and made our fire pit . These guys were very hard working , respectful, always cleaned the work area well before leaving for the day. They did very precise and thorough work & just a pleasure to work with!! We Absolutely Love our fire pit and look forward to making many warm , cozy fun, family memories around the fire. Thank you so much!!
With Gratitude,
Tim & Becky Brelje

Nolte and Sons has been fantastic to work with! Not only are they kind and timely with their responses, but their work is top notch! We used them for our Christmas lights this year and couldn’t be happier! They were also so incredible and helped plow and shovel my elderly neighbor’s driveway and sidewalk when her husband passed away. They are a family owned company I will always support!

I’m so glad I found this great local snow removal service! I had a spot in front of our driveway that the city plowed, and I spent hours trying to clear it myself, but it just wouldn’t budge. He came out and took care of it in no time with his amazing tractor. It’s great to support a reliable local business that actually shows up when they say they will. If you’re in the Des Moines area and need snow removal, I’d definitely recommend them!

We had the fortune of working with Steve and the Nolte & Sons team on a recent rock removal/landscaping/yard clean-up project. They were reliable, trustworthy, and followed through. Would 10/10 recommend.

We’re very happy with his landscaping. He was very professional and respected our lawn as well as our neighbors lawn. He did stone edging around our sidewalk as well as a wall around some cement along our garage.

We were introduced to Dillion and Better Spaces through a local landscaping supply company. From the first call he was professional and timely. His first visit was to understand our vision and then follow up with a quote. Once we decided to move forward and pick a date, he continued to work with us on material and measurements, offering up his experience. As the project was supposed to begin we unexpectedly had a time crunch because the city would be tearing up our street and blocking access to our property for two months, we notified Dillion and he worked to get the project done before that deadline. He and his team kept our property clean and their equipment and supplies organized. Whatever your landscaping project Better Spaces should be your first call.

Had a really great experience with Betterspace Landscapes. Dillon oversaw everything and made the whole process super easy. They graded, leveled, and seeded our backyard, filled in a spot up front, over seeded and also took care of removing a yew and an old stump, which was a huge help.

The crew was friendly, showed up when they said they would, and left everything clean when they were done. You can tell they take pride in their work. Also a big plus that they offer a 1-year warranty on the seed as long as they handle the watering—that definitely gives some peace of mind.

Overall just a smooth, stress-free experience. Would definitely recommend them!

We recently had a landscaping project completed and could not be happier with the experience from start to finish. Communication throughout the entire process was wonderful, and we always felt very involved in the design process and decision-making along the way.

Dillon and his team did an incredible job helping bring our vision to life while also providing expert guidance and recommendations that truly elevated the final result. The attention to detail was unmatched, and we especially appreciated how tidy and organized they kept the job site throughout the project.

The craftsmanship, professionalism, and care they put into their work really stood out. We are so grateful to the entire team and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for quality landscaping work. We would gladly have them back for future projects and look forward to enjoying our beautiful new space for years to come!

Hired Dillon based on reviews and they were spot on! Professional, detailed oriented, QUALITY work and very personable. Easy to work with. Definitely above and beyond what we expected.

We are beyond happy with the work that Dillon and his crew did. We have 2 small children and no time to keep up and he came in and saw my vision and it looks better than I could have ever imagined. We are so thankful we found him!!!

Dillon recently completed a mulching project for my home and we are discussing future projects. Betterspace provided quality and conscientious work at a reasonable price. Estimate process was detailed and there were no surprises. I look forward to having Betterspace back to make future ideas a reality and make my space truly better!
