Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review, Shane. We truly appreciate your business, and it was a pleasure working with you. Please let us know if there is anything else you need.
I contacted Whelchel after getting a few initial landscaping quotes from others. They were great to work with, helping to refine my existing rough plan for my backyard and present me with visualizations to see how it would likely look. The designer (Kelly Ann) and manager (Sam) were patient to my indecision on some areas and were responsive when I made a nearly last minute change. The crew that came out to do the work were hard workers and did a very nice job executing.
Thank you for the kind review, Doug! It was a pleasure working with you. We are happy that we were able to help you get the design you wanted. Enjoy your new landscaping and don't hesitate to reach out if you need anything else.
The team from Whelchel has the perfect blend of professionalism and friendliness. My yard was left so clean everyday after Marcel worked,that my neighbors commented on it! I am thrilled to have found this company and I can't recommend them highly enough!

Thank you for the review, Geri! We appreciate your business. Enjoy your new irrigation system and please let us know if there is anything else we can do for you.
Whelchel Landscaping certainly sent over an accommodating and delightful crew to landscape my front yard. They worked very hard on every small detail, answered all my questions with great patience, and took great effort to make the project as perfect as they could. And the neighbors claim to love the design.

Thank you for the review Erin. Our team had a great time working with you and Curtis. Enjoy your patio! If you ever need anything else, please let us know.
Frank, Jon and Larry all great in their communication with me. They did a great job in my backyard creating a rock bar and sitting area. Front yard was transformed into maintenance free landscaping. They also worked on my brother’s front area next door.
I will continue to use them for my next project!
We're happy to hear our team did such a great job. Thank you for your review and business, Moss! Please let us know if there is anything else we can do for you.
We hired Whelchel to install a bubbling boulder and place some additional boulders in courtyard. We were very impressed by the transparent pricing and attention to our vision for the project. We were even able to select our own boulders!
What impressed me most, however was the crew that installed the boulder and placed the other boulders! They were so polite and attentive to detail. They made sure to consult be on placement and made excellent suggestions for stability and appearance. They installed the boulder reservoir in some very hard ground in record high temperatures but I never heard a cross word and they worked tirelessly! Thanks guys! I love my new bubbling rock!!!
