I use someone else for routine lawn care and maintenance, but I've had Gus design and implement major projects at three different houses over some 20 years and he's always delivered first class results. I wouldn't hesitate at all to call him if I wanted to design and implement a landscaping project.

Jayson and his entire team are amazing. We are extremely selective with the businesses we refer our clients to but continually refer many of our clients to Lemcke. They have delivered unique and creative designs, cost effective solutions and expertise in their field time and time again. They communicate well throughout the process with their clients and are exceptional at listening to the clients needs and ideas and then working with them to exceed expectations. They have earned our trust many times over. Highly recommended.

Jayson, Matt and the team at Lemcke are top notch! Communication is always spot on, and the quality of work simply exceeds expectations. They are absolutely the best landscape company I've worked with, and will continue to refer them to clients, friends, and anyone looking for high quality work on their property. Highly recommended!

Matt and his team were excellent. I'm amazed at the quality and size of the 3 native trees I got from them. They had, said, and did exactly what I was wanting and made it look better than I could've imagined!
