Axel Landscape was wonderful to work with. When I first spoke with them they put my mind at ease, I felt like I was talking with one of my friends. She listened to our ideas and incorporated them into a great design. She even helped us prioritize phases of the landscaping so we can work through the sections as budget permits. When Chris, Jon and the guys started the project, we watched them pull out of the old landscaping with some trepidation wondering what it would look like in the end. As we watched Amy's design take shape and the guys started planting, it was perfect and exactly like we discussed. We love coming home, driving up and seeing our home with curb appeal! We're very pleased with Axel Landscaping and look forward to working with them on the next phase of our landscaping, the backyard.

Chris - I wanted to drop a quick note to extend a HUGE THANK YOU for our new back yard. You exceeded our expectations by a mile and our backyard is the highlight of our home. We have spent more time in our backyard in the past 3 months than we have in the last 3 years. For your team to have pulled off the amazing transformation in just 2.5 days... WOW! Amy was a blast to work with right from the start of us looking at ideas. Thank you again, we look forward to having your team back soon to transform our front yard. PS- Thank you for the note (on the Corona box) this past weekend. As you can see - we tend to have a little "too much" fun in our new back yard.

To Whom It May Concern: I would like to take this opportunity to highly recommend the services of Axel Landscape. Being a recipient of their landscape and design work, I am without a doubt, 100% satisfied in their timeliness, professionalism, attention to detail, and overall follow-through from start to finish. With over 16 years of experience in commercial real estate and residential lawn care myself, I found this organization to be top notch and one of the best. I welcome you to call me with questions or come see for yourself what I have the pleasure of enjoying everyday.

Hi Amy – Just wanted to let you know how happy we are with the work that all of you did a week ago. We are especially thrilled with how your brother transformed our patio…it really is fabulous!!! That night we celebrated with a bonfire with friends and my son and his wife and our little grandchild who’s only 1 month old. She experienced her first bonfire!!! Thanks again… everything looks beautiful and we love what you did!

To whom it may concern: This past spring we worked with Chris and Amy Axel to design and install some landscaping in our backyard and are thrilled with the outcome. From the start, we enjoyed working with Amy on the design and estimation of the project. Amy listened to us and understood our hopes for the backyard better than any of the other companies that bid on the project. By far, we preferred the creativity and uniqueness of her plan. To make things even better, their estimate was the most thorough and affordable. Chris and his team then came and started the actual work last fall before the snow fell. We were amazed at how hard they worked as the temperatures began to drop and snowflakes fell. We enjoyed having the team around – they were nice people, hard working and provided clear communication about the job. This spring, Chris and his team were back to finish the plantings and place some finishing touches. They left the job site cleaned up and ready for immediate use. We use the space daily and can’t believe how the project has changed our enjoyment of our backyard! We also really appreciated Chris’ flexibility in allowing us to make changes to the plan along the way, as well as our desire to save money by doing some of the work ourselves. They were extremely open to working with us. All in all, we had a great experience working with Chris and Amy. We have already referred them to friends and hope that we will be able to work with them again soon. Sincerely, Janet and Greg L.

Working with Axel Landscape for design and installation, was a pleasure because they first listen... and then recommend in that order. They heard what we were looking for and her design was on target. While pulling out the old and installing the new beds, repairing the retaining walls, and burying the downspouts, Chris and his team were flexible and fun. Work with them and you learn a lot too.

Axel Landscape designed and re-did all the landscape beds around my home. Including adding some beds and enlarging some others; applied cypress mulch, installed stepping stones, relocated some existing plants, planted shrubs, bulbs, perennials, etc, trimmed and removed some trees. Chris is so pleasant to work with. He uses Bachman's nursery plants. The results were gorgeous. Unfortunately they did the work late in the Fall so I can't wait until Spring to continue enjoying it! The quality of their work was worth every penny.
