All I can say is “WOW” we hired Shawn to replace our entrance with a classier EP Henry brick entrance. It came out AWESOME.. Completed in two days and looks fantastic. I highly recommend him. His work is OUTSTANDING to say the least!!!!
Shawn and his crew again did an excellent job of mulching our property. They provide fast, dependable, reasonable service, and are always willing to make suggestions. We have used them for three years now and would definitely recommend them. Our house always looks beautiful when completed.
We were in the final stages of selecting a landscaping/hardscaping company when we learned of ShawnSCAPE through visiting a neighbor’s patio. Now having had the work (Techo-Bloc walkway, natural stone wall, landscaping/lighting) done, we have said numerous times how thankful we are that we contacted Shawn. From our first phone conversation through the end of the job, Shawn was consistently responsive to our input and questions. His creativity in his design set him apart from others. His work is thoughtful and meticulous; he is truly a craftsman in what he does. This day in age, it’s rare to find people that take great pride in the work that they do, but Shawn certainly does. We hope to work with him in the future to complete our outdoor living area.
