Awards
Rustic Elegance
Our clients were looking to substantially update their exterior, particularly their entertainment spaces, focused primarily on the area around an existing pool. With children and grandchildren nearby, they wanted a pavilion, fireplace, revised deck, and outdoor kitchen as well as a new larger lounging area for the pool. Over the years, they had remodeled the interior of their existing house and wanted this theme carried forward to the new landscape. The large new timber pavilion, fireplace, outdoor kitchen, lighting, and plantings all reflect this theme and provide countless areas for entertainment. And the judges could not agree more, awarding it 3 Gold awards from the WLCA, NARI and MKE Lifestyle magazine.
TESTIMONIALS
What People Are Saying
“LandCrafters was hired to landscape our back, side, and front yards following the building of a new garage. This included removal of existing trees/plantings, soil prep, and new plantings. They also helped with a stone wall alongside our driveway, stone steps and landscape lighting. David, landscape designer, was so helpful. His knowledge and experience were obvious from our first meeting. The attention to detail and plant recommendations for our specific location on the lake were spot on. The crew who did the install also far exceeded expections.”

“LandCrafters completely transformed the neglected, overgrown plot in our backyard. When we moved into this house earlier in the year we envisioned a usable space that incorporated naturalistic materials & mostly native plants - an urban oasis. They really delivered! We will enjoy this space for years to come and it's going to be so much fun to watch it transform from season to season. David listened to our ideas & goals then presented us with creative & practical designs. The first proposals were quite a bit above our ideal budget, but he worked with us to prioritize and scale back the final plan - we also saved by doing a few tasks ourselves. In the end we were very satisfied with the scope of the project. The installation crew was hardworking, thorough & professional. Would definitely hire them again.”
Melissa Klein
“David from LandCrafters saw beyond our overgrown, and difficult to navigate, hillside to come up with a plan that transformed our backyard into inviting and relaxing outdoor space. The new stonework encourages a comfortable walk from one terraced level to another and the combination of "random" boulders with a healthy variety of plantings enhances the overall visual appeal; the space appears to be much larger than before. There were no unpleasant surprises and the project was completed within the predicted timeframe. In addition, neighbors commented on the courteous work crew who were steadfast despite near record levels of heat and humidity during the project.”

“We hired LandCrafters to design and install new landscaping in our two tiered yard. Andrew had a beautiful vision and worked within our budget. The project started when expected, with Mike and Andrew on site. The installers worked efficiently and did a fantastic job (the hardscape is amazing). When some potential changes came up Andrew contacted us and was upfront with our options. The entire process, from initial meeting to completion, was seamless and easy. We love our patio, out-cropping retaining wall/steps and new plants. We would highly recommend LandCrafters!”
C. Hewett
“We hired LandCrafters to do a complete overhaul of our backyard. We had a tiny brick patio and a backyard that was full of tiny hills and valleys. We were also interested in putting a barrier around our air conditioning units and replacing our cement front steps. They were very easy to work with throughout the design and implementation phases. Our design took all of our ideas into consideration, while also challenging us to consider some options we hadn't considered, like a tree in our backyard. Once construction began, we found all of the workers to be friendly, efficient, and hard-working. We also were really impressed with everyone's attention to detail, from cleaning up the job site each day to making sure every brick cut and level was perfect. We would absolutely hire LandCrafters again to work on future landscaping projects!”
Paul Post
“First, LandCrafters designed the landscaping for our entire property, which is a relatively small/average city lot. We then hired them to perform part of the overall design - to remove an old deck, clear debris, then prep surface and install paver patio, build steps connecting to the house, install stone garden walls, add accent lighting, and plant privacy shrubs. The project was managed well from start to finish, including the permitting process. The crew was on time everyday and worked full days. If they had to miss a day for another project, it was communicated to us well in advance. We love the finished product and only had good experiences with everyone that worked on the job.”
J. Hyland
“We have been more than pleased with our experience with LandCrafters for the design and build of our patio and driveway. David, our Landscape Designer is a great listener, very talented and wonderful to work with. He was very responsive in all aspects of the job and we really appreciated his careful consideration of our needs and goals for our project. His knowledge and experience were evident throughout the process and we were equally pleased with the quality workmanship by the crew and guidance from our foreman, Eric. Additionally, they were on time and on budget and their communication with each other and us was fantastic. We will definitely use them again.”

“We hired LandCrafters to redesign our backyard to include a patio, fire pit, and landscaping. We are very pleased with the results. We really appreciated Dave's design, suggestions, communication, and management. We were also very happy with the work crew. They were on time each day, hard workers, friendly, and kept the work area safe and clean. Most importantly, they did good, detailed oriented work. We have plans for future projects with LandCrafters and will highly recommend them to others.”

“It was a pleasure to work with LandCrafters. From our initial meeting for planning and design through execution, the staff was professional, courteous and highly skilled. Communication was clear and staff was very responsive to changes. The work crew showed up on a timely basis and completed the project in a timely manner. We are extremely pleased with the results and would highly recommend this firm.”

“From start to finish, everyone I encountered at LandCrafters was an absolute delight to work with! This was the first patio I had ever installed at my home and there was a lot to learn. The guys were considerate of my property and did a great job with seeding and the finished look could not be more PERFECT! It is worth every penny and is a great way to increase the value of my home. I am very happy to recommend this company!”
Michele Price
“LandCrafters did a phenomenal job on our project. This project included installation of bluestone patio, brick sidewalk, grading, tree planting, planting bed construction, and fieldstone wall construction. The project was completed on time and the budget was accurate. The gentlemen that performed the work were diligent and precise.”

Throughout the year-long process, Dave and his team demonstrated professional, expert level execution of every aspect of the project, and always provided us with honest and trustworthy feedback which helped us make the best and most informed decisions for our investment. We couldn't be happier with our experience working with LandCrafters!”
