Landscapers in Minneapolis

“I recently bought a home with a very steep backyard. It was just grass (barely) and pretty much unmowable due to the extreme slope. I had always wanted a water feature and nice landscaping so I found Refuge based on a lot of research and their high ratings and reviews. The reviews were not wrong. Matt came out and met with me and we talked for quite some time. As he got to know me, what I wanted (and didn’t want) in a backyard, Matt and his designer came back with a plan that I could have never conceived of in my wildest dreams. What blew my mind was how they made the rendering come to life in the final product. They created a very large berm with evergreens to address my concern about privacy as well as a huge stream which makes use of the steep hill. They surrounded it with tons of rocks and boulders and native evergreens, trees and plants. One of my friends that came by said that it totally reminded him of a recent trip he and his girlfriend had taken to Duluth to look at the waterfalls. Everyone is in awe of the beautiful oasis that Matt and his team created. Matt and his crew have to be some of the most passionate people I have met. Every single one of the people on his team takes great pride in their work. When I came out for the final reveal, I’m not going to lie, it brought tears to my eyes. And one of the best parts was seeing the looks of pride on the faces of the crew as I oooed and ahhhhed at their work. They are true craftsmen, I was so impressed with how hard they worked and how much they cared about every little detail. As with every large project, of course there are going to be some hiccups along the way. To me, that is a given and it’s not that the hiccups occur, but more importantly, how they are handled. Matt listened to all of my concerns and addressed any issues to my satisfaction. I couldn’t be more pleased that I selected Refuge and would hire them again in a minute. A+++++++ Thank you Matt and crew for making my sanctuary dreams come true!!!“

“Custom Construction Services recently completed a driveway for my home in Eagan. Andy was the project lead. From start to finish they did a phenomenal job. There was never a time that I was unaware of what was going on. I had plenty of notice and then was instructed concerning the care and curing of the concrete. I have received several compliments on the workmanship. It looks fantastic. Very happy with the results. I will defiantly use Custom Construction Services in the future. Thank you all so much.“

“The La Belle Terre team were great to work with, they were creative with the project design and professional in their execution, they were responsive in answering questions and providing accurate updates and timelines. Highly recommend!“

“We had an amazing experience working with Biota! They are such a thoughtful and conscientious company. The work is high quality, the designs are beautiful yet pragmatic, and they are ecologically conscious. You can tell they really care about the work they put out and how it will function and wear in the real world.

Biota did some landscape work in our front yard and installed a patio and Soake pool in our backyard. It was quite the project but Elizabeth was so thorough and her designs turned out beautifully. She was incredibly involved in the whole process. She was able to inherently understand our tastes and know what we wanted. And she was frequently on site during the project and was able to troubleshoot potential issues in real time.

Tim and Elizabeth were so great in dealing with the city and securing all our necessary permits. And dealing with all the arrangements with Soake. He and Henry were great at keeping us on schedule and pivoting during the heavy rains this summer.

We are so thankful Henry was our site supervisor. He and the rest of the team were so professional and impressive. He sent an email every night summarizing the work they did that day and their plans for the next. They worked efficiently and cleaned up at the end of every day.

We couldn't be happier we chose to work with Biota. We're now using their maintenance team to keep up with our beautiful landscaping!“

“Dean and his crew were great to work with. In my experience, many contractors send their A-team to win the project, and then the crew you get is hit or miss. Not with Dean’s crew. The same quality I saw in the design stage showed up with the people who did the work. When something in the plan didn’t make sense in real life, they proactively adjusted and used great judgment. Truly a design-build team. Very happy with both the quality of the work and the people.“

“Northrup Remodeling did an amazing job with our kitchen remodel. The team was professional, punctual, and paid attention to every detail. They turned our old kitchen into a modern, beautiful space. Great quality work at a very reasonable price.“

“I must have reached out to 8+ landscaping companies, and while I could get some of them to come out to take measurements, few of them followed up with estimates and when they did, some of them quoted me THOUSANDS of dollars. Brian was able to offer us straightforward and practical solutions to fix the negative grading on the back and side of the house, fix an existing window well and install another window well. He was also able to work with our tight budget and even helped us to lift our AC Unit that was being impacted by the negative grading. He was so knowledgeable and transparent about what his recommendations were and why.
We did not need anything overly complicated so we were so glad we were finally able to connect with Brian. He even came in under-budget (unheard of in my experience in working with contractors). I know summer is a busy time for landscaping businesses, and despite that, Brian was still very responsive and always followed up with us in a timely manner. I had a great experience working with Lakes Landscaping Services— I highly recommend them!“

“Really easy to use, app works well. Lawn looks great when complete. Good communication in case of bad weather. I like that they take photos of the work once complete.“

“The thing that stands out for us 25 years after the redesign of our kitchen , dining room, deck, and stair cases is how modern and open the design still feels and how durable the construction has been. It remains unique and fun. Thank you Sticks and Stones.“

“We had a great experience with Liam and his team at Philips Garden. They installed plantings for us in our garden beds during the spring of 2024. We were impressed with their knowledge and recommendations for various plant types. The crew on the day of installation was diligent and hardworking. The follow up has been excellent - checking on the plants, providing additional watering and overwintering support and any replacements in 2025.“

“Outstanding customer experience with building a patio behind our home. JLM (Tom Miller and team) is timely, excellent with communication, and design. I highly recommend this organization for your next project.“

“I used Dow for several years to clear snow from my parents drive and walkway. They were quick to respond after any snow and did a great job completely clearing all the snow so my parents could get to their cars. Highly recommend Dow's - great company

“Steve and his crew were so kind and professional while working on my project. I knew from his reputation that I would be happy with the results, but I couldn’t have imagined how amazing my yard could look! Best landscaper in MN for sure!!“

“We had Giving Treen Gardens come out for a garden consultation this spring. I was hopeful that my husband would consider changing to a non-toxic approach to lawn care. We also had a tree we were concerned with, wanted some idea on how to build a better bird habitat, and wanted less maintenance in general. They helped us feel empowered! So much wonderful education. They are clearly knowledgeable and passionate about their work! Now it's August, we are lawn chemical free and it's still looks great! And we have an affordable 3 year plan to build upon. Thank you Giving Tree!!“

“Excellent all around. Good pricing and high quality work. I recommend Grass and Grounds for lawn care/maintenance work.“

“JG Landscaping Company transformed our yard with their landscaping services. The team arrived on time, listened to our ideas, and offered smart plant selections and clean edging. They were polite, worked efficiently, and left our lawn healthier and more vibrant. Pricing was fair, and the project stayed on schedule. Highly recommend this landscaper for refreshing any outdoor space. ???“

“Such an amazing team! Super flexible and great about communicating. We love the result. It was the same price as a deck but the patio and large granite stones and the patio are so much more amazing.“

“I’ve had Trio do two different landscaping projects for me and they have both turned out well. The staff worked with me to come up with a design that would work and then did the work without issue.

The first project was rocks and plants around the garage and house in order to make it look nicer and drain much better. The second project was replacing cement with paver stones for the walk leading to my garage. The paver stones have worked out exceptionally well and a number of the neighbors have commented on how nice they look. They are much easier to clear of snow than the cement was.

I am very satisfied with the work Trio has done and would hire them again.“

“I have used this service for lawn mowing and spring clean-up for several years and have always been extremely pleased with their work and excellent response time. My yard always looks great.Service: Lawn mowing & maintenance“

“He does good work, is reliable, and took me as a client during the crazy times in Minneapolis.“

“Great materials! They helped source historic bricks for a Lundie house front sidewalk.“

“I spent around 50K with lifestyle landscapes and I am so happy! Communication was excellent and they worked hard. We also hired them for maintaining our yard. Great work, thank you!“

“I recently hired FJ Lawn Care and Snow Removal for the first time this winter, and I am extremely satisfied with their services. Despite the relatively mild winter in Minnesota, FJ's prompt and thorough snow removal left a lasting impression.

From the beginning, FJ's team was responsive and attentive to any questions or concerns I had. As a first-time user of a snow removal service, I was unsure about the process, but their friendly and informative approach put me at ease. They patiently walked me through the entire procedure and addressed all my doubts, ensuring I felt comfortable with their services.

When it came to snow removal, FJ demonstrated exceptional professionalism. They promptly cleared both my walkways and driveway, leaving no trace of snow behind. Their attention to detail was evident, and I appreciated their commitment to providing a complete job. Despite the limited amount of snowfall this season, FJ did not compromise on the quality of their work.

What sets FJ Lawn Care and Snow Removal apart is their reliability. They were always on time, never leaving me waiting in uncertainty. Their punctuality and dedication to meeting their commitments were commendable.

Based on my experience, I wholeheartedly recommend FJ Lawn Care and Snow Removal to anyone in need of a reliable and responsive snow removal service. Their promptness, thoroughness, and excellent customer service make them a standout choice in the industry. I will undoubtedly be utilizing their services again in the future.“

“Very professional service call to have driveway an stairs cleared of show they also put down salt , which was a great blessing, it was so much ice under the snow. Will use them again even for the summer yard care. 5 Star service. Thank you“

“I have had a few different lawn companies over the years but Northern Elite for the last three years. Compared to the other two, Northern Elite is truly a cut above. They are exceptional in both lawn care and snow removal. For snow removal, prior to a storm, they communicate their plan so that you know when to expect the service. I highly recommend them.“
