"Colin Dowd has done two projects for us in the last three years: major sitework for a large barn and driveway and more major sitework and septic system for an addition to our home. Colin is an artist with a big machine. He reads the ground rather than just digging away. He shows up as promised and works efficiently and hard. Nothing is wasted. He is a creative and determined problem solver. He finishes a landscape so both owner and newcomer feel as if it was always that way. Above all, Colin is a good communicator and a pleasure to work with. If you are very very lucky, you will find him just so."
