We never want to move now! Our Donnie Mac's
landscape design makes us feel like we were featured on HGTV. It's
unique, beautiful, fits our needs, and all the work that they put
into the ground preparation and install was incredible - it is
built to last and we love it.
We've gotten a lot of OMGs! Each person who has come
over has tried to pick up a stone off the bench because it looks so
natural. And, everyone loves the sound of the waterfall - it takes
some calculated creativity to capture that effect - listening to it
truly adds calm and peace to your day.
We have a friend who tackled his backyard as a DIY and
when it was all added up and compared, we know we saved time,
maintenance trouble and money long term by hiring Donnie Mac's -
with a warranty to stand behind it! And, of course we got a
one-of-a-kind design to fit our layout from Mike that you just
can't do yourself. Mike nailed the design we were looking for
the first go-round. In addition, Don and Mike were sensitive to our
budget as well and helped us rework parts of the plan to fit our
budget which we appreciate.
And, you can trust working with Donnie Mac's team. It
was all Donnie Mac trucks, equipment, and staff at our house to do
the work. They handled every part of the project without
subcontracting so we knew all the people doing the work. In
addition, we felt very comfortable with the guys doing the work at
our house with the kids and animals about. They were cordial and
professional. Chad, Joe, Mike, JP, Jeff and all the team were
awesome and we enjoyed talking to them and even having lunch with
them one day. How Chad got those crazy angles to fit together
perfectly is truly amazing. Everyone on their team has his own
specialty in a certain aspect of design, landscape, hardscape, and
all the project elements.
A show of their commitment to exceptional customer
service was proven on the first day they arrived. I jokingly said
to Joe something about Don probably telling them this was a project
with the crazy tree hugger. Joe said Don did tell them to be
careful working around the trees so as not to damage any of
them. We had needed to take down some trees for our project
and in very early conversations, we casually told Don how we
enjoyed the trees, but understood some more might need to come
down, no big deal. So, it was very thoughtful that he made this a
point to convey to the landscaping team because of something we
simply made mention. They went above and beyond our expectations in
many ways.
Finally, and not to forget to make note, they must
keep stellar radar on the weather and conditions, because with all
the rain and cold, when we thought they would not start for weeks,
they started two weeks earlier than discussed. And, they were right
on with the conditions for getting the job done. So, our project
finished earlier than expected so we could enjoy it that much
longer this season.
They have tons of pictures and ideas - the design
expertise is easy to see. You want it, they can do it! What
you have to factor in and have to get word of mouth is the people,
quality of the work and the foundation that lies beneath as that is
what truly separates who you should choose in our mind. That's
Donnie Mac's! Donnie Mac's was referred to us and we wholeheartedly
recommend them to anyone looking for landscape
services.
What is funny is Donnie Mac's did not approach us for
a testimonial. We are proactively writing this because we wanted to
be sure to give them one - they earned it!
Thanks to the entire team at Donnie Mac's
Landscaping, Inc. on the incredible job they did for
us!
Sincerely, Brad and Karen Sroda and Family
