Mahnke Landscaping Reviews
I have used Mahnke Landscaping for my home and rental homes for the past 15 years. I cannot say enough good things about Matthew, his varied skills, and his work ethic. He has taken down and trimmed trees for me, done snow removal, tiled properties to improve drainage, prepared and seeded yards, laid brick paver sidewalks, and put in driveways. He always does great work and has excellent equipment to get the job done right. I highly recommend him and his staff!
June 02 · Vicky GullionIt is very difficult being a military family AND landlords. We are usually around the corner to handle issues. We are so thankful for the recommendation to Mahnke Landscaping and their amazing job in getting rid of a huge tree that was very troublesome for our tenant and neighbors! The clean-up after looked as if the tree was never there. I highly recommend them for your landscaping needs!
September 17 · Aja SylvainHad plans on 1st estimate visit for 3 jobs. After numerous texts and assurances he finally showed up and did the 1st job. After that more texts and assurances he was coming back. NEVER SHOWED UP AGAIN. I gave up.
March 21 · Candace CoxI inquired about putting rock around home. Initially they replied and came by. They said they would get back to me on several different dates but didn't do so. Tried to call and text but no reply. Guess they don't want the buisness.
January 14 · John PendletonDoesn’t return calls. I finally got him to answer, talked to him, then he didn’t follow thru. Sounds too busy for new people. Not reliable.
