Highly recommended. We had severe storm damage over many acres taking down 1000's of trees. While we had a few others do logging and some clean up before bringing in Aardvark, Bill and co were the only ones who were consistently there when expected and their productivity was unmatched. His equipment is in good shape and he knows how to use it efficiently. For us he was mostly stumping and ground clearing and the results came faster and better than the competition. Expect we will have him back.read more

Bill was excellent and professional from the very beginning. He came out personally to give an estimate and provided a fair cost for the work being done. We were doing extensive land clearing in our backyard. They worked quickly and were always available when we had a question. We would not hesitate to use Bill and his team again for any size project. It was so nice having a company that could do it all... from tree removal to grading the property. We just planted some seed and cant wait for the new lawn to grow in. Thanks Bill, excellent job!read more

Aardvark did a great job on my project. They made my land clearing project grass seed ready and used stone from the property to build a retaining wall/rock garden. Great to work with.read more

Outstanding experience with Bill and his crew, very professional and courteous. I hired Aardvark to remove two giant pine trees (80+ feet) and a couple maples from my back yard. With a fence surrounding the property, pool and mound septic system there was little room for them to work with but they pulled the job off with no damage, even cleaned up every last branch! The crew arrived as promised and stuck to the original estimate. I plan on having Aardvark come back to do some additional excavator work. I HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!read more

I contacted Bill from Aardvark excavating to remove several large trees that had fallen, or partially fallen during a storm. From my initial meeting with Bill at my home for an estimate, to the culmination of the work we had done, everyone from Aardvark was a pleasure to work with. A few of the large trees that needed to be removed but were still standing were very close to our house and needed careful planning for removal. Bill and his crew were extremely knowledgable about the job at hand and clearly executed it with expertise. I found their pricing to be very fair and they were helpful, efficient, friendly and polite. In the process we also had Aardvark redo our dirt/gravel driveway with a new machine that dredges up the gravel already existing in the driveway and relays it - looks so much better than it did before. I would not hesitate to contact Bill and Aardvark in the future for any related property issues!read more
