Our Approach

Your Property Is an Investment. We Treat It Like One.

Your property is one of the most significant investments you'll ever make. The way it looks and functions matters — to you, to your family, and to the people who visit. At Post Excavating & Landscaping LLC, we take that seriously.

We don't just install plants and walk away. We listen to your vision, give you every option to reach your goal, and build a landscape that reflects what you want your property to be. Kristi studied Horticulture Science and Dan studied Nursery Management at OSU-ATI — which means every design decision is backed by real education, not guesswork.

Spring is our busiest season for landscape work, and for good reason — it's the best time to plant, design, and install. If you're thinking about a new landscape, now is the time to get on our schedule.

Hydro-Seeding

A Plan That Fits Your Property and Your Life

Hydro-seeding is one of the most effective ways to establish a new lawn quickly and evenly. We apply a slurry of seed, fertilizer, and mulch that promotes rapid, uniform germination — ideal for large areas, slopes, or newly graded sites. It's significantly faster than traditional seeding and far more affordable than sod.

Turf Topdressing

Healthier Turf from the Ground Up

Topdressing improves soil structure, levels uneven turf, and encourages thicker, healthier grass over time. It's one of the most cost-effective investments you can make in your lawn's long-term health. We apply a thin, even layer of quality material that works with your existing turf — not against it.

Soil Improvement Turf Leveling Lawn Health Organic Material

Erosion Control

Protect Your Land Before the Next Rain

Slopes, bare soil, and disturbed areas are vulnerable to erosion — especially in Ohio's wet springs. We use proven methods including hydro-seeding, erosion control matting, and retaining structures to stabilize your land and protect it from runoff. Don't wait until you've lost topsoil to act.

Paver Patios & Sidewalks

Hardscaping That Holds Up to Ohio Winters

A well-designed paver patio or walkway adds real function and lasting beauty to your outdoor space. We install durable, attractive hardscaping using quality pavers that are designed to handle freeze-thaw cycles and look great year after year. From a simple front walk to a full outdoor living area — we build it right.

Vinyl Fencing

Property Lines That Last a Lifetime

A quality fence does more than define your property — it adds privacy, improves appearance, and creates a cleaner, more finished outdoor space. We install durable, low-maintenance solutions built for everyday use and long-term reliability. From decorative front-yard styles to full privacy and farm enclosures — we build it right.

Retaining Walls

Walls That Solve Real Problems

Retaining walls manage grade changes, prevent erosion, and create usable space on sloped properties. We build walls that are structurally sound and visually appealing — designed to last, not just look good on day one. Whether you need a small garden wall or a large structural retaining system, we have the experience to do it right.

Irrigation Systems

Protect Your Investment Without Wasting Water

A properly designed irrigation system keeps your landscape healthy and reduces the time you spend watering. We design and install systems tailored to your property's specific layout, soil type, and plant needs. The right system pays for itself in plant health and water savings over time.

We design and install low-voltage lighting systems that complement your landscape design and add a layer of security to your property.
