Customer Reviews
Terry Bohaning
Michael Backes was one of 3 vendors that we asked to quote reworking an existing stone patio and adding another stone surface as well as finishing a stone walkway that we had started to build. My wife swears that he could see the vision that she had for the back yard.
He gave us a reasonable quote for the work and a reasonable window to start work. We accepted the quote.
Michael and his PM, AJ, came onsite we talked over the job and AJ came back the next day with equipment and material ready to start. Overall it took 5 days to complete the work - including some extra work that we requested.
Overall, I can't say enough positive things about Backes Landscaping. 5 for Quality, 5 for doing what they said that they would. Would I use them again? Yes...

Backes Landscaping did a great job on my retaining wall. Careful consideration of our needs, minimal yard intrusion, expert work, continuous communication and good value for the service. I highly recommend.
Christina Adeboye Sullivan
We highly recommend the Backes Landscaping team! They supported us through all the stages of our project, helped us break it into financially manageable chunks, and have been quick to help us with any questions that we have. Michael is always responsive and really listens to what we need. Then he supports his team to build what we wanted while making the end product even better than expected!
