I am a Marine Veteran and President of a company, attention to detail is very important to me. Marshall and his team went above and beyond.

I was referred to Bowman Excavating after my septic tank collapsed. They were quick to come up with a plan, quote the job & had approval from the county and a permit in record time. The job was scheduled for the very next morning. Professional from the 1st phone call!

We had Bowman Excavating dig our basement, septic well and field, and do the final grade and it was done efficiently and Ed and Marshall did a great job. Communication with them was fantastic!

Bowman Excavating went above and beyond for us! They worked through the big windstorm that took out most of Michigan's power, then through the sudden temp drop and snow storm. And they still managed to finish a complete septic field replacement in their estimated timeframe! You won't find a company more communicative and invested in your project!

Bowman Excavating took care of our lawn treatments last year, and this year we added the mowing service. After one visit this season our lawn looks so much better! Our former services were fine, but Bowman's attention to detail, courtesy, and care of their work shows in every aspect of their work. Our yard has not looked this good since the sod was rolled out!!

Bowman Landscaping and Lawn did a great job laying our mulch! Not only were they meticulous in laying the mulch evenly , they did a great Spring clean up on the plants. We just came home and it looked beautiful! Also, later that night I noticed one of the managers came by to make sure the job was done right. We will be calling on these guys a lot more!

Bowman Landscaping and Lawn gives exceptional service! We had concerns with some of our trees and they had the right connections to bring the resources we need to educate us and give us some options. They took their time explaining that they trees were too close together and that fertilizing them would not help. Also, they planted some trees for us and put down mulch for us! They are our go to Landscaping experts!

I found Bowman Excavating after shopping around for a fix on a septic tank baffle. My experience with Bowman was exceptional. They were quick to respond to all my calls and emails, answering all my questions about the project at hand. Their price was more then reasonable, and I had the assurance of working with a company which was licensed and experienced. They fit me in very quickly, especially considering the holiday week that I called, and fixed my septic within a couple hours of arriving. They even sent me pictures of the repair, as I was unable to be home when they came. I am more then thrilled
