I had a great experience with A+. Don came out to evaluate the project, carefully assessed the situation, and provided a practical solution instead of trying to inflate the scope for a larger estimate. They started and completed the work on schedule, communicated well throughout the process, and left the area clean when the job was finished. I would gladly recommend A+ to others looking for honest and reliable landscaping services.

Really appreciative from start to finish A-Plus executed perfectly. Small job of removing sod, moving a couple large rocks, bringing in topsoil and planting to transform a side yard. Don was a pleasure to work with, on time, responsive and committed to getting the job done to my satisfaction.

Asked and received placement of mulch to even out a very lumpy yard. Grass seed on top. Work was completed in a day. Both Don and his co-worker were hard workers. They made me and the birds really happy. Hopefully the grass seed will take in the back. A little concerned as the wind caused mucho cedar debris to cover new seed. Certainly no fault of the company. Would hire them again.

A+ Dirt Works did a great job on cutting my concrete. It may take some times to schedule them but once the calendar was booked, they were punctual. Will work with them again if I have future projects.
