Landscaping reviews in Des Moines, Iowa

They showed up on time and started right in working. Very friendly, nice young men. They did a great job and worked quickly. I would definitely recommend them. And the best part is the original estimate was not what I ended up paying. I ended up paying less, which was great!

Great lawn service! Ryan was very thorough with the aeration and made sure our gates were secure when done.

I can’t thank Mike or his company enough for the amazing job they did on my yard! From the first phone call, where I was admittedly frazzled, Mike calmed my fears, answered my questions and within a day had everything taken care of. The process was easy, honest and straightforward. I would highly recommend them for any job, big or small!!

Excel Landscaping is my go to company. They listen to your ideas and take the time to get the job done right. They also have moral And ethical standards. Their prices are affordable also.

They do a great job with their annual aeration and overseed Isaac was attentive to our lawn markings and made sure we had everything we needed before he took off.

As the property manager for a local HOA, I rely on Excel for all of our property mowing fertilization and snow removal. They were here today and put mulch around nearly 100 trees, leaving our property cleaner than when they arrived. Their teams are very professional and responsive. It is a joy to work with them

They were on time, thorough and easy to work with. Isaac did a great job for us and talked a while about our lawn, etc.

Thanks,
Gregg

Joe and Isaac from Excel Lawn and Landscaping are fantastic! They are professional, friendly, communicative, and do a great job. My yard looks amazing—highly recommend their services!

Mike and his staff does a terrific job for all your landscaping duties. Excel is a one-stop service for all your landscaping needs. Mike is extremely knowledgable of what needs to be done to your lawn, trees, etc. Not only are the crew members very professional with their duties, they will go the extra mile to get the job done. Everyone at Excel is very friendly, and they care about you as a person.

I called Excel to see if they could do some edging before my wife hosting a bridal shower. They were out the next day and did a great job. Communication and the work completed is top notch. Nicely done guys.

Issac did a fabulous job with aerating and overseding my lawn. He always has such a positive attitude!

Ryan was very informative and answered all our questions. He was very efficient with his time and did and excellent job. Very professional team at excel !

Needing a dethatch job and found Excel via a web search. First easy phone call set things in motion. It took a couple weeks due to weather, but I received an email saying the work should be completed the next day. Ryan showed up and did a great job. He walked around the small yard with me and provided background information on the process and explained what he would be doing. He also took my constant barrage of questions about the other services Excel can provide and how they may apply to our yard. He then got busy and left the lawn dethatched and the grounds nice and clean. I expect to change other services to them in the future.

Just had Excel De-thatch this week and my yard looks great! Communication with Excel via email was impressive and they provided the service on the day they said. Ryan, did a great job with my yard. Very pleased! Thank you.

Excel was easy to work with. Effective at communication. And offered quality work. They use high quality seed and products. 5 stars all the way.

This company is great. They’re responsive, thorough and honest. It’s very clear that they care about people more than money. Mike was always quick to respond and answer any questions. Ryan and Isaac came out to do the work and did great, even taking the time to explain what they were doing and why. Definitely would recommend.

Ryan came out today for a 1 hour clean up with clearing excessive weeds and clean up of lawn, I was so happy with results he created a nice clean patio area and side yard clea up, I have a great Thank you to owner Mike for sending out Ryan today. IF looking for a lawn care service look no farther then Excel lawn + landcare service they are the BEST!!!

We are very fortunate to have Issac and Ryan at Excel taking care of the lawns in our HOA again this year. They are exemplary in their professionalism, courtesy, and willingness to go above and beyond in the care of the properties. They do a wonderful job assessing the needs of the grass as the seasons progress and change. I highly recommend Issac and Ryan and Excel!

I had the pleasure of meeting Isaac from Excel when he was servicing our lawn, and he truly impressed me. He’s a professional in every sense—polite, punctual, and clearly knows what he’s doing. Isaac is a genuinely nice young man with a great work ethic and strong knowledge of his field. It’s refreshing to see someone take such pride in their work. Highly recommend him if you’re looking for quality lawn service done right!

We’ve always struggled with weeds and dead grass, so we decided to reach out to Excel Lawns & Landscape based on their reviews. We’re so glad we did! Isaac does a fantastic job servicing our yard, and we’ve already noticed a big improvement. They’re also great at communicating—always letting us know what’s going on and what to expect. Highly recommend!

I've had a tremendously positive experience with Excel. They were the only company in the metro I could find willing to cut my lawn a trifle lower. All the other companies said no. Mike the initial contact was most customer service oriented and responsive to my inquiry. He alayed my fears that the lawn would continue to look shaggy! Isaac and Joe were my mow team and we're most receptive to my preferences. They mowed it just like we have done ourselves for over 30 years, and did a great job edging! They were very polite and professional. We hope to expand the lawn service options we use through Excel going forward.
