I had the most terrible experience ever with this company and its sales rep Mr. Trevor Dennewitz. Trevor and I had set up a date for him to come and look at everything I was wanting for my landscape needs. The first thing that happened is he cancelled on our first appointment, which is fine, things happen and I get that.He wanted to set up another appointment, gave me a time and day and I said yes that would be fine, he never acknowledged my email of agreeing to that time. I thought that was weird but still I was fine.May 27th at 2pm was the date we set. At 2:15pm I email Trevor asking him if he is still coming for our appointment? He said he was running behind but he was still coming.He arrives at 2:30pm, 30 minutes late and from the very beginning I could tell he didnt care about my business. I had done a full walk around my house and asked him about different items such as the rocks on the side of my driveway, the bushes in front of my house, a retainer wall in the front yard because of the slope and mud drainage during heavy rain like the past weekend.Trevor could care less, he snapped few photos and blabbered off possible costs, told me I really dont need anything different on the side of my driveway, just to dump some more rock on top of it. Things I asked for he basically told me I didnt need.As he was leaving I was completely confused as to what had just happened. Ive never dealt with a business that didnt want business. I asked him so are you going to come up with a bid and email it or call? Trevor says yea he will get a bid to me that he was very busy but he would get one to me.Here we are 6/29/21, over a month later and no contact from Trevor. I would never use this business ever for anything. Im not sure how someone isnt following up with his appointments and making sure things are getting done. Terrible experience.

We used LKM for bulk mulch delivery this year and were really pleased. We previously used another landscape co to get 5 yards of premium dark brown mulch a couple of weeks ago and their delivery fee pushed the price up a little more than we liked. That delivery ended up not being enough for our property, so after calling around a bit more for our second load, I spoke to LKM who advised that their standard brown mulch might be a good match. It was pretty close. It was a little more shredded than the premium, and a little lighter in color, but all in all not very noticable, and we got twice as much for only about $100 more. I was able to order and pay via phone, provided delivery instructions, and they were here in a day for contactless delivery. Very easy and quick. I wasnt sure what 10 yards of bulk mulch dropped out on the drivewould look like, but it ended up taking an area of right about 15 x 15

Horrible company do not use. Tried them for the first time this year for my lawn maintenance. They have been consistently late for all of my treatments and my lawn looks worse than ever with all the weeds growing. I asked them to come back and spray for the weeds and no response. I called them a few weeks ago to complain about areas in my lawn turning brown and they said someone would call me back....no call at all. Now my lawn is infested with army worms and has large areas of dead grass because they wouldnt address my concerns. Today I canceled them and they acted like no big deal. I never leave reviews at all but I do not want someone to have this experience. Plenty of better companies out there who will actually return your call.

We worked with LKM several years ago on an outdoor lighting project that made us very happy, so when it came time to renovate our backyard patio, they were the only company we called.The primary reason we called LKM focused around two issues. Firstly, we have three trees that outgrew the brick circles LKM laid around them. It should be noted that LKM initially told us our circles would be too small due to the impending growth of the trees, and they were right.  The roots eventually pushed the bricks up, making them uneven.  The diameter of the circles needed to be increased. Secondly, the nine-year-old back patio settled incorrectly which resulted in a large crack. (It should be mentioned that LKM did not lay this patio—our builder did.) We asked LKM if they could enlarge the patio area in such a way that it could comfortably accommodate eight to ten people. I also floated the idea of a pergola because the sun beats down on our backyard as it sets.LKM sent Daniel McClure, whom we’ve worked with before, and he took into account our needs and ideas. He soon drew up a set of plans that we absolutely fell in love with. Now, to be honest, he gave us the Cadillac of plans. He probably assumed that we would scale back certain aspects. For the most part, though, we kept everything he designed. We plan to raise our kids in our current house, as well as to retire in our current house, and so we looked at it as a worthwhile investment that would increase the quality of our lives.From start to finish, it took LKM about two weeks to complete the project. This pace amazed us because they took down an old tree and removed its stump; planted five pine trees; tore out and replaced the brick surrounding three Autumn Blazes; broke up our small concrete patio and replaced it with one about four times its size; cut a pattern into the concrete of the new patio; installed new lighting around the new patio; wired that lighting; carried in the pieces of the pergola, stained the pergola, and constructed the pergola from the ground up; regraded a low spot; and planted dozens of new plants. Most amazingly, the same crew did all of this work. The guys planting the prairie grass were the same guys cutting the wood for the pergola and putting it together!Furthermore, the LKM crew worked relentlessly. They’d start at about 7:30 a.m. and work to 5:00 p.m. Other than a lunch break, they pretty much powered through the day, every day. And though we didn’t interact with the crew very much, they were perfectly friendly when we did. We found them all to be pleasant, accommodating, and respectful of the property.Now, just to be clear, this project proved very expensive. However, we knew the work would be done correctly, we knew LKM guarantees their efforts, and, frankly, we like working with LKM. This is a company that takes pride in its projects, its quality, and its customer service.If you’re thinking of completing an outdoor project, I completely recommend LKM.

Our experience with LKM Landscaping was outstanding. We had a vision of what we wanted and LKM delivered. Trevor Dennewitz was a pleasure to work with. Both professional and knowledgeable. And our primary crew of Israel and Dave did an incredible job. Wont hesitate to call on your team again for any future landscaping needs. Many thanks. The Connors.

LMK is a great local company. That hires local people that do great work. That’s huge in my opinion right now. Let’s keep our hard earned money, in our local community. They been Fertilizing my lawn, Aerating, and Mulching my landscaping for the past six season. Plus other bigger projects through the years. The lawn fertilization program has always made my lawn look the best around. Thank you LKM!

Josh and his crew at LKM Landscaping completely transformed our backyard and surpassed all of our expectations! We absolutely love our new patio and beautiful landscaping and the outcropping stones were the perfect touch to create that WOW factor! I highly recommend LKM and we look forward to working together with them on future projects.

LKM salesman and designer, Trevor Dennewitz, designed a remedy to our sloping pathway on the west side of our home. LKM workmen, Nate and Bryce, built a new retaining wall and rebuilt our existing retaining wall. Nate and Bryce produced a beautiful retaining wall which increases our curbside appeal and more importantly increases our enjoyment of our home. Trevor, Nate and Bryce are a great team with which to work.

LKM is a customer focused organization. We have been doing business for 5 years. They have completed landscaping projects and treated our yard. Every single employee in that time has been professional, listened, and done excellent work. I have done price comparisons and they are very competitive.I recommend LKM without reservation.

We have been using LKM for six plus months now and have been very satisfied. When I reached out for a quote the reception desk was very friendly and helpful. I was put in touch with Josh and he provided detailed information and was timely in responding. Every time I have a question I get great customer service when I call or email. We moved in July and they haven taken care of our large yard since. We look forward to using them this year for landscaping too.

I’ve contracted for LKM’s 6-step fertilizer program for about 3 years. They do a tremendous job. My yard looks so good, and so much nicer than when I tried to do it myself. The workers are all friendly and professional. I also had LKM do a small landscaping job for me a few years back. I was very happy with the result and would hire them again when the need arises.

During the proposal phase, they listened to what customer wanted, gave helpful suggestions, and responded positively to changes. Then when they got to work, they delivered the landscaping earlier than promised, kept the grounds cleaned up daily, and provided an impressive result. We look forward to continuing the customer relationship as long as LKM continues to demonstrate talent, efficiency, careful clean-up and value.

We have had a great experience with LKM doing our lawn maintenance. We initially thought we would be able to handle it on our own, but with our schedules in the spring and summer, we just didnt get to the treatments we needed to get done on our own. We let the lawn go for a good chunk of the summer and then the crabgrass and weeds set in.LKM came in September, October and November to catch us up on some lawn applications and within a week of the first treatment, we could see a noticeable difference in the crabgrass and weed control. In comparing their pricing to two others, we found theirs to be competitive and thus far, we have been happy. They leave a small sign on our lawn to let us know when a treatment was applied and they have been very accommodating to our requests when we have had to make an adjustment to the schedule.Josh Kaminski has been very responsive in emails and is prompt in providing an answer - this is so helpful to us in our busy household! We have been so pleased with what they were able to do in the last part of 2019 that we have already committed to the full treatment plan for 2020. Thank you, LKM!

From top to bottom they are great......ownership, management, office administration and field staff. They are professional, prompt and courteous. They do what you want and need. They leave the job site better than they found it. They stand behind their work and follow up after the job is complete to assure satisfaction and I like that added touch. I highly recommend LKM Mowing and Landscaping!

Weve been using LKMs services now for over three seasons and have been very pleased. We initially based our decision to use LKM based on their competitive/reasonable rates. Since then, its been their service and excellent work that has kept us on board year after year. Weve never hesitated to refer LKM to friends looking for similar services.

LKM has been spraying our trees for Japanese Beatles and fall lawn aeration. I have always been pleased with the timeliness of this service and quality of the work they perform. They make a special effort to perform these service at the right time and the care they use when aerating the grass without damaging the lawn.

I strongly recommend LKM Mowing and Landscaping. The work performed was excellent, professional, and courteous. Complications arose because of my vacation, the weather, and an illness (including a pending operation on my wife); and LKM rose to my assistance, even to the extent of watering my lawn while I was out-of-town. Really, I can not express my gratitude enough except to say “Thak-you” for work timely and well done!

They did our holiday lighting for us this year and it looks beautiful!! They did such a wonderful job and the crew was very professional. We had looked into holiday lighting with another company last year and their price was almost twice what LMK charged and I think their lighting looks better than the big bulbed lighting the other company uses anyway. Id highly recommend them!!!

We utilize LKM for our regular mowing and landscaping needs and they are wonderful. We wanted to highlight how wonderful they were with the ice situation that caused incredible tree and limb damage to our property in late December. We had a huge amount of branches and some broken trees all over. The guys did an amazing job. They worked incredibly hard and didn’t even take a break that we saw. We would highly recommend LKM for so many reasons - and this is one of them.
