    'My experience in dealing with XScape has been nothing more than pleasurable. From concept design to the final stage the desire to achieve the correct result has always been the company’s primary focus. The flexibility and willingness to listen to change along the way has also been one of the reasons that I have continued to deal and work with XScape. I have now been dealing with XScape for over 6 years and they are always my first choice when I think of landscaping and design. They have always been able to deliver on their promise of time, quality and expertise and for this l am always happy to refer and recommend XScape for any landscaping and design needs'

    We are so happy with the result of the artificial turf you laid so beautifully for us. It was a big job, (excavating, including digging out roots from a previously removed tree), filling and leveling, but your friendly professionalism and attention to detail was amazing and your suggestions to enhance the design were SO right. What started out as a dust bowl is now a green oasis. It’s been almost a year now and its still as beautiful as the day it was laid. Maintenance is easy and people still ask us if it is real which I think is testament to you and the expert work you did. We think it was one of the best decisions we have made and we would recommend your services to anybody wanting to achieve what you did for us.

    Jack, Chris and their team from XSCAPE transformed a previously unusable, very overgrown part of our yard into what is now a great addition to our garden. It involved a lot of excavation, a large retaining wall and backfilling of soil and mulch. It was a large job, done in no time at all. I found everyone very professional and easy to deal with, all work done on time and on budget. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend XSCAPE. A fantastic company!
