We received several quotes from various metro Milwaukee area landscaping companies on a complete…read moreredesign of the landscaping surrounding our home. We had a specific plan that was a bit "outside the box" from what the typical customer is looking for in design and foliage. Our goal was to use only unique native Wisconsin plants that came from nearby nurseries to reduce our carbon footprint, without any shrubs, bushes or evergreens. Also, wanted species that would thrive without the use of chemical fertilizers or herbicides. The representatives from the first 3 landscaping companies that came to look at the project seemed confused and unsure on what we were trying to accomplish. Then we came upon Eco Harmony! I mentioned to Mike that we love to explore the trails at Schlitz Audubon Nature Center and were going for that type of vibe. He followed up with a plan and design we loved. Aside from coming up with a design that matched our vision, what really impressed us was how Mike went out of his way to meet with us at less than convenient hours. I typically don't get home from work until 8PM. Mike met with us several times in the later evening to finalize plans. His patience and easy going approach were much appreciated as well. Highly recommend Eco Harmony!

This is my second project I hired Dahl's for and again I was not disappointed. Since my job was a…read moresmaller one, I made sure to get under contract before the season was on us, which meant I could be fitted in between larger jobs, and sooner than if I had waited to book them. They show up on time, ask me good questions and make sure I am happy all along the process, and they do a great job! If not for the straw laid down to help the grass seed, I would not see any signs of their work due to the cleanup they are careful about. Thank you to Steven, Nate and Brandon for their hard work and kindness all along. I had paving stones similar to my last project, so see the photos for examples. This time the work was in a different area of the yard, and it is covered up with straw so pictures don't do much good. However, trust me when I say it is quality work. I highly recommend Dahl's, but get on the schedule asap as they fill up for the season faster than you would hope.

The contracted work was performed, but several problems with the finished work remained unresolved…read more We explicitly told the crew not to remove our mulberry tree. It was removed anyway because it was mistaken for buckthorn. The company replaced it with a much smaller tree and gave us a $100 credit to plant it ourselves. We understand mistakes happen, but better communication between the owner and crew could have prevented this. The lead landscaper, Brandon, told us he "didn't bring his notes." The crushed granite patio has been an ongoing concern. The work was completed and paid for on 5/8. My husband approved it at that time. There was no weed barrier showing through the middle of the patio, though limited areas near the brick border were visible and were discussed before approval. Brandon reassured us that the granite would not shift and that we "should not have any problems with the patio for years." By 5/13, only five days later, weed barrier was showing through in multiple additional spots near the brick border that had not been exposed on 5/8. My husband texted Josh about it. These were newly exposed areas that had not been visible when the work was approved five days earlier. On 5/15, my husband called Josh again with no response. On 5/26, Josh responded to an unrelated fence quote request but did not address the granite concern, despite our saying we were willing to pay for another load of granite. On 6/7, we emailed Josh because several seeded areas had failed to establish despite being watered similarly to areas that did grow. He responded 6/8 saying he would return to reseed, but no date was scheduled. We followed up 6/15. On 6/16, he said staff planned to come that Friday because they were working nearby. It rained, and no one came. On Monday 6/22, Josh emailed that rain prevented the visit and said staff would stop by Wednesday, weather permitting. No one came. On Thursday 6/25, my husband again asked that staff also inspect the patio. On 6/29, after no response, he called again regarding both the patio and reseeding. There was no answer or response. After these repeated attempts to get the issues addressed, I posted this review on July 3rd, 2026. On 7/10, without advance notice from Josh, one of his employees arrived at our property. She did not ring the doorbell or contact us before beginning work. Fortunately, we were home and my husband spoke with her. She looked at the patio and agreed the granite was thin in areas, and said she wanted us to be happy because we had made an investment in our property. She then overseeded several areas. July 16th, Josh responded to my Google review. The granite problem remained unresolved. Within about three months of installation, multiple areas were thin enough that weed barrier was exposed. Our concern is not ordinary maintenance; it is that new exposed areas appeared within days of completion and continued to remain unresolved. On 7/13, Josh emailed that the company would no longer return to our property and referenced my negative Google review in explaining that decision. The review had been posted before his employee came on 7/10 to overseed and evaluate the patio. Several seeded areas failed to establish despite being watered similarly to areas that did grow. The company eventually returned to overseed, but we may now need to hire another contractor to evaluate and correct the remaining unresolved issues. This review reflects our experience, photographs, and documented communications. We understand weather can affect grass and loose materials. Our frustration is with the additional weed barrier becoming exposed within days of completion, repeated attempts to have concerns addressed, the length of time the issues remained unresolved, and ultimately being told in writing that the company would no longer return.

Ben is an incredible entrepreneur, hard worker and good communicator for this clients…read more I found him through Yelp projects and he was attentive and quickly help schedule an onsite appointment for a site survey. We discussed a very large front yard undertaking with him. We wanted a "low grass" front yard concept and I explained to him some general flowers and plants I wanted involved. He put an outdoor landscaping "floor plan" together if you will. We talked things through and after some slight adjustments, we moved forward! He was great to organize and plan with. The issue is the timing of all of the plants and when they would be arriving due to the "zone" we are in. On the day of the project he and his team member arrived bright and early, discussed the plan and drawing once again to make sure we were all on the same page and got to work. Ben handled much of the getting rid of the grass and having level and even dirt. We had him bury a pipe regarding our excess water pump so that it was clean and underground and to the sidewalk. Then all of the plants were put into place and everything was covered with mulch. We even had him take out some large bushes that were in the back yard as part of the project while he was here. He was great to work with, had awesome follow up and always explained why something was happening. In his profession there obviously are some weather dependencies, so he was always good about keeping us informed if something had to slightly shift in the schedule.
