‍

Merrill landscape services is a team of quality professionals. My lawn has never looked so great.  Highly recommend.

‍

Company aerated and over-seeded lawn. Unfortunately, the job was done while I was out of town. I did not get to water for a week after it was seeded. I did not get the results that I had hoped. Not Merrill's fault, just unfortunate timing.

‍

They did a great job mowing and trimming all along our long fence line. They are patient as well. They had to wait once when irrigation showed up at the same time and all sprinklers were set off.

‍

The times we used Merrill, they were always professional and cordial. We appreciated the service they provided for us during a time when we were unable to take care of our lawn.

‍

We have used Merrill for the last 2 years and have been so happy with the work they have done for our landscaping.  Professional, great recommendations and we will use them again !!

‍

I love Merrill Landscape Services! They do a great job with my lawn mowing and leaf cleanup. Super responsive and professional!

‍

Needed our yard leveled and prepped for pool installation, workers were friendly,did their job and finished in about 3 days.

‍

Merrill did snow removal at my home.  They were always there early so that I could get to work on time.  The edges of the driveway were marked so they would not go over the grass and ornamental stones.

‍

Merrill Landscaping did an amazing job on my yard. The crew really brought it to life. I would highly recommend this company to do all your landscape needs. Thanks guys for your hard work!

‍

We've used Merrill for years for lawn mowing and trimming, sprinkler system winterizing and summer-prep, and leaf removal. They're always prompt, courteous, and affordable.

‍

We hired Merrill for their snow removal services for a winter season - their office staff was super friendly to deal with, automatic payments were easy and the snow removal services were first rate.  Very highly recommend!!

‍

We hired Merrill for lawn mowing services while our riding mower was being repaired. They did a great job and I would still be using them if we didn't have our riding mower back and working.

‍

We had them come out and lay new mulch in the spring. They did a fantastic job. They cleaned up the beds before they laid the mulch. When they mulched around our trees, they better defined the line around the tree, the removed weeds from the circle, then sprayed weed killer and then laid the mulch. The two guys that came out were very professional and worked quickly.

‍

Merrill is my go to for snow removal!  These guys are fantastic and on top of it and my business parking lot is never dangerous to my customers because of these guys.  I highly recommend if you can get on their list, do it.

‍

John Reed and his crew, Tom and Nick from Merrill Landscaping, did a great job replacing rock beds.  We appreciate their hard work as this project was not an easy one. The rock beds look great and we plan to use them again.

‍

Merrill landscape services has always been extremely professional to work with. Their services are always performed timely and by professionals who know what they are doing. They have always been extremely responsive and quick when I’ve needed something in a rush.

‍

Everyone at Merrill Landscape Services is always very kind and friendly, especially when I call the office! The crew always has my lawn looking FANTASTIC! I would recommend them to anyone. They are an awesome team!

‍

Merrill Landscape designed a portion of our front yard and installed the plan.  They were great to work with, always responded to my questions quickly  and were very professional.  I plan to use them again in the future.

‍

First I would like say I posted on facebook not realizing that it didn't go public. But I wanted tell everyone this company does great work. My friends Meagan and Nick had their property done it exceeded their expectations and it looks amazing I will be having my yard done by Merrill Landscaping Company.

From the very beginning everyone and everything was very easy with Merrill Landscape. The quality of the work was AMAZING. The workers were very polite when working in my yard. Will definitely be using them again in the future for my landscaping needs!

‍

We used Merrill Landscape Services to prepare our lawn for winter. They did a fantastic job! Service was courteous, timely, and efficient.   We’ve used several other services in the past, and Merrill outperformed them all!

‍

So thankful to Merrill Services for the attention to detail. My yard always looks great!

‍

Last summer we decided to try out Merrill Services. We had a troublesome yard with dead patches for a while and decided to do something about it. We had seen the Merrill trucks a few times and decided to give them a try. We signed up for their full fertilization program, and a year later our lawn is still looking great! We also signed up for mowing, and I’ve got to say...those crews can stripe!

‍

"Exceptional" is the term I would use to describe our experiences with Merrill Landscape Services.  I have been impressed with the quality of their work and the breadth of their services.  The most important factor to me is that their workers listen to and understand the "big picture" of what we want to accomplish for our home.

‍

This was my first year maintaining a lawn and Merrill Landscape Services made it quick and easy! They transformed my backyard from an eyesore to one I enjoy spending time in. The staff was friendly, efficient, and paid great attention to detail. I would definitely recommend them for your future landscaping needs!

‍

Thanks to Merrill Landscaping I now have a beautiful yard that I am so proud of. The crews are friendly, professional & finished in a timely manner. It's exactly how I wanted it & I couldn't be more pleased.  I would definitely recommend using Merrill Landscape Services for any landscaping needs.

‍

The work completed without any questions. I would and will have more work done by their crews.

‍

Our lawn looked very professionally manicured! The team really did a very nice job. I am also so happy that they could accommodate my schedule. I would highly recommend their services.

‍

y lawn has NEVER looked better from the 2nd season on.  It took a full season for them to recoup some damage I had previously.  I can honestly recommend them wholeheartedly and without hesitation.  No matter what type of lawn service you need they got you covered.  You won't regret using Merrill.

I am so pleased to find a service that separates itself from the rest, both local landscape companies; as well as the national brands. I’ve tried them all, and have finally settled on Merrill as the company with the right balance of service excellence, sales, and customer service excellence.

It was super nice working with this crew, they were super hospitable and and very flexible 💯💯

Merrill did an excellent job with our landscape project. John and his crew were attentive and made sure we were happy before moving on. I would recommend this team for any landscape and yard projects. Excellent communication, design, and attention to detail.

‍

Merrill Landscape Services was excellent. They called me back promptly with an affordable quote (I needed an end-of-season mowing and bagging), were able to schedule me quickly, and did a beautiful job. Very professional!

‍

Merrill is an excellent local small business. Everyone I have spoken to and worked with have been very helpful. The workers who come to do the lawn have always been very friendly, knowledgeable and patient. They take the time to thoroughly explain what's needed to solve the lawn and tree issues, and to answer all my questions.

Dan and his team are very professional, have the knowledge and experience in all matters of lawn care. We are half-way through this project and we are very impressed with their service. I would recommend this company for all needs great and small.

We are very pleased with the work the Merrill team did at our house! The new patio with pergola and fire pit area is amazing.  They did a significant amount of landscaping with many plantings and mulching, as well.  We have received several compliments on the work they did!

After a less than satisfactory experience with another landscape maintenance company, I switched to Merrill a few years ago and never looked back.  I am using Merrill for all my landscaping needs, from regular upkeep and weed control to spring and fall clean-ups and leaf removal, and I have never been disappointed.

Needed help finding a company to update the walkway. I found Merrill and they responded quick and did a nice job. They are now doing their irrigation and mulch as well.

‍

We have always done our own spring landscaping cleanup but this year we decided to hire someone for the job. Merrill Landscaping came yesterday and did an INCREDIBLE job. I have been impressed from initial contact. Someone called me back right away. Estimate was delivered promptly and the service performed exceeded expectations. 100% worth the money. We will be a recurring customer.

‍

Their attention to detail and commitment to customer satisfaction was evident throughout the entire process. I highly recommend Merrill Landscape Services for anyone in need of snow removal services.

The men who come to 1212e windwood ln are great!! They come every Tuesday & are professional & polite. I will recommend Merrill to friends & neighbors!

‍

A little expensive compared to smaller places, but reliable and responsive to customers. Quality can vary depending on the team you get, Jahir and Jose did a fantastic job for my orchard this May when grass is really growing.

‍

Merrill Landscaping has been awesome! Marcus is knowledgeable, trustworthy and reliable. Highly recommend!

‍

Prompt service! Merrill Landscaping is thorough with their work and makes sure the customer is satisfied. Dan Freeman went above and beyond to meet our needs.

‍

I would highly recommend Merrill landscaping - Jeff and his crew did a great job on pavers around my deck, and grading around my foundation and adding new flower beds !!

‍

The two man crew trimmed about twenty bushes at my house today. They were outstanding!!!!! The bushes were trimmed very neatly and all trimming waste was collected and hauled away. I recommend their service and I will use again! Thanks!

I was unsure of which lawn care company to go with having just moved to Urbana. I am very happy that I selected Merrill Landscape Services. Jeff was very thorough in helping me to plan and stay within budget. He addressed all my concerns & was very responsive when we communicated.

Merrill landscaping cleaned my yard after not having shrubs trimmed in over eight years. There job was fabulous and they did it in a timely manner. I am very happy.

‍

Great experience working with the Merrill team! They were helpful and accommodating. We used their nice indoor space and outdoor facility for a special event September 2025.

‍

Merrill has a great mowing and snow removal plan. They also do yard work for me. I'm very happy with their service. They are very friendly and helpful.

‍

Merrill replaced and re-did my brick walks a few years ago.  They look amazing.  They did such a great job, I had them redo all of my front and side landscaping - which likely hadn't been touched in 50 years.  It was a huge project, but the results are amazing and it truly transformed the house.

‍

I am so very pleased with the project Merrill Landscape is doing for me.  From the planning stages, through the tear out of existing, to the planting of new...everything has been ahead of the proposed schedule and on budget.

The total process with Jeff was very simple and easy.  Very friendly and knew his stuff.  He explained all my options and had a great plan.  The price was right and the crew were done within a couple days.  They did a great job and cleaned everything up.  I would totally recommend them to anyone.  I will be calling back soon to take care of my backyard.

Merrill mulched and seeded around my new shed. I love the look and they did it so quickly! I also use them for leaf cleanup and they always do a great job. Would definitely recommend.

‍

Merrill planted 11 trees and assorted plants in our backyard over three days, workers were very cordial despite the heat and the landscaping is looking very good. They also planted a maple tree in the front yard and did some shrub pruning. Jeff coordinates the work effectively and is quick to respond to texts. Very good landscaping service will continue to use them moving forward!

‍

Jeff and his team were great. They layed river rock and pavers around the firepit, making a great hangout for teenage boys. I didn’t want to tackle the job myself. I wouldn’t no where to start.  They did an amazing job in and out in 3days. I am very pleased. I would not hesitate in calling them again.

‍

Merrill has consistently kept our lawn neat and tidy in the summer, and out driveway and sidewalks clear in winter. They recently did some decorative landscaping, and it looks great. They listened to what I wanted, and didn't try to upsell us on more. Would definitely recommend!

‍

I recently hired Merrill Landscape Services to install a lower-level patio space, and I couldn’t be happier with the outcome. The project included cable railing through both the upper and lower deck areas, with integrated lighting in the railing posts—which turned out to be my absolute favorite feature. Their team also encouraged me to go ahead and complete the main-level patio space at the same time, and I’m so glad I listened—it really brought the entire outdoor area together beautifully.

Merrill landscape services did an amazing job on my property! They completely redid three rock beds, a mulch bed, took out a bunch of weeds and bushes for a very reasonable price. The landscaping manager, Jeff, even came out after the work was done to make sure that everything was done to my liking and specifications that we agreed upon! I will definitely be hiring them again the next time I have any sort of landscaping needs!

‍

We are extremely happy with the design and installation of our front garden. Jeff was a pleasure to work with, he responded quickly from the initial consultation to all questions throughout the process. He has a great eye for plant selection that works for the space. The ground team was professional, very friendly and knowledgeable.

They did a great job! Lawn looks great and they even took away excess tree branches. Also very reasonably priced, especially if you have a big residential job where you might have to rent equipment. Just pay a bit more and call these people. Great service!

‍

I've been using this company for awhile now. Unlike a lot of companies I've contacted, they always answer the phone! Plus they make my lawn look great!

‍

After the work was done they contacted us for follow-up on how our landscaping was doing and how satisfied we were. Our new landscaping looks better than it ever has all thanks to the friendly and helpful staff at Merrill Landscape Services.

‍

Amazing company very skilled and knowledgeable staff...

‍

Merrill Landscape Services is an exceptional company! I have been very pleased with their work every time. The estimate was spot on and they finished my landscape projects right on time. Again, it’s an exceptional business and I would highly recommend.
