I bought this house and had Lewis Landscape design and install a Koi pond with waterfalls. My main concern was pond depth. I met with Brad and he was very knowledgeable and answered all my concerns. The design even more beautiful than I had envisioned. Lewis built a beautiful flagstone patio which overlooks the entire pond. I was very impressed with Lewis Landscaping responsiveness, especially the attention Brad had given me with my numerous calls to him.

The quote was very comprehensive and I was impressed that there were no additional costs at the end even though I made a few additions. I also use Lewis for my bi annual maintenance on my sprinkler systems. Once the pond and patio were completed I had Lewis update all of the landscaping lighting. I was originally concerned about the overall price because they were replacing the high end original lights.

I spoke with Brad and he was able to reduce the price significantly by changing the lighting brand which was still comparable with the original lights. I would highly recommend Lewis landscape and will continue to use them in the future.

We had a patio and seating wall installed out in our back yard. It was a very professionally managed project and beautifully done! Lewis Landscape Services does great work and careful cleanup as well. We love the new space they created.

These guys were very easy to work with. They gave me a straight forward price quote and the job came in on-time and on-budget. No hidden costs and the quality of the installation was amazing. We love our new patio.

We hired Lewis Landscape Services to install a paver pathway in front of our carriage house. Their expertise with pavers was apparent from the beginning, with knowledgeable project managers who planned the grade for proper drainage (the other companies from which we received bids didn't inspire much confidence with their plans). Lewis Landscape Services was flexible with our moving our original start-date due to ongoing construction. Miguel & his crew worked diligently to complete the entire project in three days. The finished pathway looks amazing, and seems to be extremely durable. I would highly recommend their company.

We hired Lewis Landscape for a project for our backyard. I could tell from day 1 that the project manager "responsible" for our project (Brad) couldn't care less about it. And the thing that mostly frustrated us was the AWFUL COMMUNICATION. The starting date was postponed several times and that wouldn't have been a problem if only the PM notified us in advance.

But every time we were expecting them to come, they would simply not show up. We lost several hours from work PTO that we reserved in order to be present for the start of the project. It was impossible to get the phone number of the person responsible for the project and all communication was handled by email that caused miscommunication and delays.

When the project started, Brad came on site for about 10 minutes. We never saw him again. The whole project was NEVER SUPERVISED. Let me say that the crews always worked hard and delivered quality work, but we had no way to ask questions or agree on details, and if I wasn't lucky enough to be able to work from home and check on the progress, the end result would have been much different as several things weren't installed as we agreed/desired.

On this point I want to underline one more time how terrible the communication was. The PM would email us saying the crew would come one day, they would not come that day, and instead show up another random day! This is ultimately our private property and we are the ones granting access to it. Since Brad was NEVER ON-SITE we felt like we had to be there to check on what was getting installed where, but often times we were not even aware of workers coming!

For example we were lucky enough to be there when the crew started mounting our kitchen. We agreed and were quoted for a kitchen cabinet 4ft long. Sure enough the cabinet that they started installing was longer and noticeably impeded the ease of access to rest of the patio. If I was not there the workers would have kept building the remainder of the kitchen, wasting time, money, etc.

We were so discontent with the situation that we decided not to proceed with the planting portion of the project. A company that cares about their clients would try to understand them, but when we said we didn't want to move forward with the remainder of the project, the only comment we got was an "ok", without an attempt to understand the reasons.

They probably did not need our money, which we are now happy to give to a much better landscaper. In addition, to highlight one more time how careless Brad was, I have to mention that by contract we were supposed to have a final walkthrough before paying the second half of the project. Well. we never had one! Brad would not even show up for the completion of work.

I know this company has great reviews, and the only very negative one prior to this is from a person who also had the same PM we had. maybe not all is to waste. As I said, the workers are awesome and they delivered quality work. However, be aware of which PM gets assigned to your project!

From day one until the day Lewis walked off the job site our project was a DISASTER! I will say, after reading this review, if you still decide to choose Lewis, be very wary of the termination for convenience clause in their contract. When things get sideways or don't work, they move to the next task, leaving the previous task unfinished. When they get far enough that they cannot finish, they will send an email and conveniently demobilize.

They will then bill you saying they are almost complete only to find out there are a slew of mistakes that become costly, if not impossible, to fix. Before I get too far, I will say the crews they had onsite were hard working and really nice folks. The PM (Brad) doesn't spend more than 5-10 mins on site when he even shows up. It was clear the workers had no idea what the vision was or what the final product was to look like.

I had to constantly watch over and even print the design plan for them multiple times to keep things on track. They quoted 26 days to completion. After 4 months they walked away at what they claimed was 85% complete (which was more like 50-60%). We had some poured concrete walls (which Lewis subbed out) but the attention to the details and dimensions created long term headaches.

They miscalculated the walls which resulted in our steps and upper patio not aligning or steps protruding above the concrete which was never the intent. A solution was never found. They cut away wall foundations and cut slab stairs to make them fit in other locations which could affect long term structural integrity. The control joints in the walls were installed at an angle as the concrete sub had to revise the design intent because Lewis wouldn't dig the footings per the desire of their sub (they were told they could do it themselves).

We requested this entire portion of wall be replaced. They opted to cut a smaller portion as a test knowing we likely wouldn't approve which now looks completely different and the joint is separating. They walked before it was ever fixed properly. The wall finishes are terrible and inconsistent. They failed to remove skim coating which they ultimately tried to chisel and grind away leaving a terrible result on our feature seating walls.

Not to mention the tops of the walls are not consistent or level in most spots. These are all things a PM should oversee to make sure the end product is what the owner is looking for. We have a spillway water feature. The opening they provided didn't work with the fountain. The fountain basin wasn't formed deep enough and the water lines through the concrete did not allow the pre-fabricated basin to sit deep enough.

And when we turned on the sprinklers the main water connection blew apart from poor installation. There is also no main shutoff for the water without going to my sprinkler main clear across the property. The paver patio they installed looked terrible. Joints do not align (and some of that is on the mfgr tolerances) but the cut lines were horrible which Lewis could control. Pavers and steps are chipped and damaged and multiple pavers had stains do to improper storage of materials.

The sprinklers were supposed to be complete but I had to pay another contractor to find and fix plugs/sprinklers that didn't even work. We had a gas line installed for a fire pit. They didn't pull a permit and no one would touch the work as it had not been inspected. I had to do a pressure test myself and negotiate with the inspector to get approval and a permit.

To cap it all off, I'm sure the owner will respond to this review with nothing but excuses. But he wasn't even willing to discuss when I called and emailed him multiple times as the project was deteriorating. They just continued to work and try to get as much money out of us as they could before they conveniently walked away. And as the owner will say, only negative reviews like this are posted. But only the good projects are highlighted in their portfolio. I would not recommend this company.

We are beyond pleased at the beautiful backyard Lewis Landscape built for us. The vision Jim had for our space was so helpful in the design process. He answered questions for us along the way and gave us examples to look at when we needed help making a decision. We were amazed to watch the team transform our space. They worked so hard, in the rain & cold temps, their work ethic was top notch.

Every Lewis Landscape member worked tirelessly to get every detail done to perfection. We now have a beautiful outside space that we will enjoy for years. Thank you to everyone at Lewis Landscape for being so incredible!

I worked with Jim Lewis and his crew on two projects for my back yard. I had a fire pit area built as well as a dry rock bed. Both came out just as I wanted. My next project was a pathway from my front yard to the back yard. Great job done. Great crew. Jim Lewis is so great to work with. Hiring Lewis Landscaping is the best landscaping service I ever worked with.

After a few projects that Lewis Landscapes Services performed at our home over the last few years I thought I should do a shout out after yet another awesome project they did for us earlier this month. They are so cool to work with, Jim takes so much pride in his crew and their work deserves every star available on this review board. From the detailed project quote to the finished product they walk you through the project explaining all the details, making changes and fine tuning the design until you are satisfied then they follow through showing up with a great team of skilled laborers and do exactly what they said they would do. Efficient, professional service, quality work! There are many landscaping companies to choose from, but for us there is no other. Thank you Jim and crew awesome job as always.

Been meaning to write this for some time. We were very pleased with the work Lewis did in our back yard. They removed an ugly, unhealthy old lawn and many half-dead shrubs and replaced it with a smaller lawn, bark dust planting areas and a large, beautiful paver patio with seated fire pit. We love it! The work crew was diligent and respectful and we especially appreciated manager Brad Steyskal. He made sure everything was top notch. They will also come back and fix any problems you discover later.

I had no clue as to where or how to start. I knew I wanted to fix a soggy walkway and a flat surface made in my otherwise sloped back yard. The process was a pleasure. Jim came out after I called, walked the yard, listened to what I wanted and instantly started brainstorming. But he watched and listened to me so when an idea was not a "hit" he quickly changed design course. I was so happy with this process I had Lewis Landscape design all three sides of my house, including lighting, a propane fire pit and seat wall.

So happy with our new backyard!! We just bought our house and the backyard was awful. Full of prickly weeds, spots of dirt and no grass. And did I mention tree roots everywhere??? The first day the crew came out they wrestled with those roots and took the yard down to just dirt. I came home today (the 2nd day of work) and my backyard is beautiful!!

New sod/grass and new bark dust. I actually want to walk in my yard now without fear of getting scratched! The crew was timely and cleaned up when they were done. Thank you so much for giving me a new yard!!

Donald (project manager) and his crew were the best! Even though the project was simple (by their standards), they had the best attention to detail I'd seen by anyone and treated my project like it was the most important thing they'd seen. Simply amazing!

We've used Lewis Landscape services for 11 years and 2 homes, everything from fall clean-up to renovation. We are a annual customer on the sprinklers--a no brainer--and routinely have owner Jim Lewis over. Jim always has great ideas to make our yard function and please the eye. Trees? Done. Stonework? Done. Our latest project--a new lawn. Guess what?

It's done.

Lewis Landscape Services is fairly priced but above the others for promptness in service and end results. You get more than what you pay for. The office staff is nice, and the crews are friendly. Every time we've had the folks from Lewis Landscape out, the neighbors were impressed with how the yard looked and the quick turn-around. We like the results too.

I contacted Lewis landscape back in June for a full back yard makeover. I didn't realize how busy they are and that it would take a full 2 months before they could get to my job, once I scheduled. I picked Lewis landscape, as one of my co-workers used them. I was amazed by their work. I was also impressed by the photos on their website as well.

Brad Steyskal, who I highly recommend, was so attentive to detail and oversaw the project from start to finish.

He came out almost everyday to inspect the work of his crew and made tweaks and suggestions as needed. I have to say, I was a little sticker shocked when I received the quote. However, this is something I knew my family and I would enjoy for many years to come. Once the work was completed (last week), my wife and I asked ourselves why we waited so long to do this!

The space is Stunning! We just enjoyed a fire in our new fire pit tonight. It's the perfect space. I want to mention that I initially removed some of the work to keep the cost down, but then decided to add it back in once the work started. So glad I did!!

I recently had artificial turf and landscaping done. Mr. Lewis went out of his way to ensure that the stone selected would be to my liking. I wanted something a little different and he listened and the results are perfect! His crew was neat, efficient and friendly. His bid was fair. I would not hesitate to recommend this company.

I purchased a new home in 2013 and unfortunately the back yard was not setup properly and it turned into a muddy marsh. Donald, Salvador, and Geronimo came out and completely replaced my back lawn adding a very good looking french drain around the outside to fix the drainage issue that was killing the lawn. They were very easy to work with and I would definitely recommend them to family and friends.
John Knoernschild
I had Lewis Landscapes help me with an irrigation project. Jim came out gave ideas to help improve the situation. His workers were very courteous, and knowledgable. This is a very professional company. I highly reccomend them.
Neil McGinnis
I would like to take the opportunity to thank Donald, Steve, Omar and Geronimo for the tremendous effort they put forth to make a bad situation into a total success. It was apparent that they were going to correct the efforts of the initial crew on the project. They spent the better part of Saturday working very hard to make the project one that would make anyone, including myself, proud.

I really admire craftsmanship and I was not disappointed with the crew. They paid close attention to detail and made sure everything was installed correctly while testing to make sure it worked properly. They were also very patient as I wanted to see how this project went together and to understand how it all works. They were more than happy to explain what was going on and answered all of my questions. All of our Lewis Landscape projects have been outstanding and that is why we will always keep your company in mind when we ever need a landscape project in the future.

We've had Jim Lewis come by and help us with the yards at two homes over 13 years now. Both involved deconstruction and renovation. We usually have tentative ideas that Jim helps us flesh out and improve. Then the crew arrives and magic occurs. We've also had Lewis Landscape Services come do the annual maintenance on our irrigation. That saves us headaches and the cost of replacing dead plants next year. The office staff is kind; the crews are great; and for Jim it's personal. It's your home and he wants it to be right for you.
