This company had great reviews. The job completed for me was below awful. The most unprofessional job ever. Left a horrible mess. Stole my rakes and ruined my shop vacuum. After they completed i had mud and water in my shelter. I paid 200 for the hydraulic jack. I was told i needed a winch. This is going on 3 months and i still dont have a winch or my rakes. I regret having these people install my shelter. The concrete is 1/2 inch high on two corners. Below my garage concrete 60% of the area. I do not recommend this company for any job. Family had to give the good reviews. Dont believe them.
Response from Collinwood Excavation
"There were issues with this install the garage floor was not level and sloped away. Mr. [Consumer Name Removed] a wife was show this and understood. Also when finishing she came in and knocked over a bucket of water and mud from when they were cleaning up and we had to use their shop vac since we didn?t carry one (we don?t need it for install) so we cleaned up the mess Mr [Consumer Name Removed] card declined at the end of the job so we tried two others and we suggested a check his wife indicated they needed to use credit card because they didn?t have the funds to cover a check. I personally told Mr. [Consumer Name Removed] I would come out and look at the issues however we also need to figure out payment. I have seen my installers pictures and they look great. I understand the corners may be off but that is due to the garage floor being off. Also we wouldn?t have taken any rakes we only use shovels and squeegees on these installs even the remaining reaidue is pressure washed out of the garage to the drive and then the drive is pressure washed to the street I would be glad to address any co concerns but we wouldn?t like to get paid eventually"

Tree Removal
$6,000
Had roughly an acre excavated back in February. Owner was late showing up and very arrogant when he did. I should have sent him packing then but I didn?t. He did a very substandard job clearing and stacking the trees. In fact, I had to hire someone else to come re-stack it just to get it to burn. The second excavator (who I did not know) said what the Collinwood excavator did was the worse job he had seen. The owner told me that he would come back and drag the roots and smooth the dirt once I got the trees burned. I informed him two weeks ago that it was ready and even sent him a picture showing the cleared lot. I got no response. I texted him today and he said it would be about three weeks before he would get back to finish the job. When I pushed him a little on the timeline his true colors came out. I hired him because he was veteran owned and had excellent reviews. I couldn?t believe this was the same guy mentioned in his reviews. Today I noticed that every excellent review is from
Response from Collinwood Excavation
"The customer is correct as far as the interactions and the work. We were hired to clear and pile the customer wanted the cheapest option. We suggested they pay us slightly more to burn because without equipment it would be difficult. The customer realized this 2/3 months later and asked for a quote to burn the piles we quoted him and he didn?t like it so that ended the conversation. We were contacted about another month later and he said you told me you would root take the area after the piles were gone and I told him yes we will be glad too! I told him right now about 2-3 weeks and that angered him His response was if you can?t get here sooner than two weeks that gonna affect my reviews I asked him if he was threatening to leave us a bad review if we didn?t drop what we were doing to help him with a courtesy service we offer and he advises that he was gonna show me who was in charge and that we he says it needs to be done I better get on it ?? I will admit we declined any more service as we do not allow customers to threaten and treat us in this manner. All of our site prep jobs include a free revisit at the end of construction we come by and we dress up the work area after all the other contractors and trucks leave as a courtesy this was the homeowner doesn?t have to pay again for something simple We love to help our customers but we won?t be held review hostage due to poor planning I understand being in a hurry however when he had just reached out for the first time in a month with a decision on what he wanted, you have to expect to wait a little before equipment and people can move to your job"

Very pleased with the large in ground tornado shelter we had installed! Easy order process and was installed in a timely manner! Would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a quality storm shelter to keep your family safe! Thank you for a great experience!

Obviously, they are very professional at what they do. They arrived at the agreed upon time, worked quickly and efficiently, cutting, grading and felling the trees. Tommy and his associate were friendly and courteous, asking the right questions to ensure that we were satisfied with the service. They did more than we had anticipated in such a short time. I certainly will recommend them.

They did a lot of work for us, tearing down an old barn and mobile home, bush hogging a couple of acres and part of our woods; and refurbishing our driveway. They did a great job, my only disappointment was they didnâ t get all the junk removed, but overall Iâ m happy with their work.

Quality work. I had mulch from a couple tree trunks that needed to be taken off and top soil needed to be replaced and packed. I also had soil erosion near my sidewalk that needed extra top soil replaced and packed. They did what I asked and went an extra step with adding black top soil for the nutrients and seeded both places and put straw down to allow it to grow. They also said that if something happened and there was a problem with it that their work was guaranteed. They are a top notch landscaping company in my book and would highly recommend them.

Primary job was installing french drain. Very thorough intial inspection with suggestions for grading to help route water away from the home in general in addition to the frence drain. Not a hard sell, just a suggested overall plan. Great communication, very reasonable pricing, timley work completion, Great cleanup. Would highly reccomend.
