Mike responded right away to my inquiry and came for estimate, just as fast. He is not only very professional, but is extremely knowledgable in his field. Mike made the landscaping for my place, look amazing by using different plants and trees that he recommended. His employees were very hard working and nice. They completed my landscaping in one day, staying until dark to finish it for me. Mike added lighting in different areas for me, which look great. I love it! I would recommend MALA, LLC to anyone for their landscaping. My neighbor loved what they did to my place and is using MALA for their landscaping too. Thanks Mike, to you and all your employees for doing such a fantastic job on my landscaping. M.T.

I don’t think we are done working with Michael but so far the landscaping plans he drew up for us are amazing! We look forward to making these plans a reality. He is super knowledgeable and really listened to what we wanted.

They did an amazing job cleaning up my overgrown and cluttered landscaping. They made some of my old trees and bushes look very attractive — when I didn’t think they were even worth keeping. I appreciate all their hard work and attention to detail. I highly recommend.

Michael understood the vision and made it happen. We are thrilled with the work. His team worked efficiently. He went above and beyond the expectation. Michael was there to supervise the crew and ensure customer satisfaction. He definitely followed through with what he said. He even followed up after the snow storm to check to see how the work held up. We are looking to do more work in the future and will absolutely use MALA again.
