What Our Kansas Neighbours Say About Our Work

Yellow star ratings
Mike with Glacial Plains Land Service provided land clearing at our property this fall. He was an extremely affordable and worked through unfavorable weather to get the job done and done well. He was easy to work with and left the property looking incredible! 10/10 recommend and look forward to future work.

“I hired Mike Hobart with Glacial Plains Land Services to add a gravel pad for a new garden shed this spring and he did a 5-star job. Honest, up-front pricing, very knowledgeable, willing to answer questions, kept me updated on scheduling, showed up when he said he would, and worked non-stop the whole time he was here (even in the rain!). He is meticulous in his measurements and my shed is perfectly level. Mike is a rare find these days. I don’t normally write reviews because I’m not easily impressed, but I highly recommend Glacial Plains Land Services.”
