What Des Moines Homeowners Say
We had a great experience with Element Lawn and Landscape. They redid the landscaping along the front and side of our house, including building a new retaining wall and replacing the landscaping with river rock. Gavin and his team were very professional and easy to work with. We are extremely happy with how everything turned out.
Brooke WThe perfect landscape experience. Gavin and his crew gave us a fair price with a clear-cut scope of work. Showed up on time, delivered what he promised, and rolled with my scope creep with ease. I was so impressed with the quality and ease they were to work with.
