Get matched with top interlocking pavers for driveways & floors installers in Marine On Saint Croix, MN

"I hired Clark Companies for my landscaping needs after they had installed a concrete patio for me. Both jobs exceeded my expectations! The work was done exactly how I requested, in one day by very professional crews who left the job site super clean each time. Iâ ll definitely hire them again for any future landscaping or concrete needs."

"Rob is a skilled stone and paver artist. He rebuilt our stone lakeshore with care, and created new retaining walls and paver walkway for our lakefront home. Robâ s work is beautiful, and he works quickly. I will definitely hire Rob again."

"My wife and I are retired, and we wanted to spend more time outside enjoying our large backyard that has a beautiful woods starting at the back edge of our yard. The tiny patio and the old landscaping were and quot;drearyand quot; and needed some punch to enhance the area, and make it possible to entertain more than six people at one time. <br /> We got some landscaper recommendations from a few neighbors, Angie's List and Gerten's Nursery. We had three companies look at our situation and make suggestions and give us a bid. The first guy listened to what we wanted, but never made any suggestions of his own and wanted $1200.00 to draw up a plan. The second man had a lot of general ideas, showed us some architectual drawings of some of his projects. His projects were very formal and quite expensive. We wanted something more casual that blended in with the hills and wooded area behind our house. The owner was very nice and had great plans, but he too wanted a large up front deposit before he would draw up a plan. The third landscaper was Scott Solomonson, owner and operator of Living Space Landscapes. Again, we described the general theme and our needs for this project. Scott seemed to catch on very quickly on what our needs were and he offered numerous ideas. He said he would draw up a general plan that we could discuss, modify and shape up what the project would look like. He didn't want any deposit until he started the project, if we decided to go with him. He said he would call us and bring over a drawing and proposal in a few days. <br /> After he left, my wife and I figured the we would probably be going with him unless his plan wasn't close to what we wanted , and/or was too expensive. We just had a good feeling about him. He seemed like someone we could trust and be comfortable with. Two days later, he came back with a plan that was exactly what we wanted and would have drawn up ourselves if we had the skill and knowledge. His price was right, so we put him to work. <br /> Scott has two permanent employees, two specialists that he works with on placing the large rocks, a patio specialist, Jim Timm, and a couple of college kids in the summer who do a lot of the grunt work. Scoot works as hard as his crew and has a real nice rapport with the team. Everyone worked really hard, put in long days, and was a perfectionist. Of course, they were working during the hot spell we have just endured. There was only one day when they stopped at about noon, because it was just unbearably hot and dangerous. <br /> Every last detail that Scott had in our plan was exactly what we wanted. He DID NOT put in the smallest or cheapest plantings he could find! We had not written into the contract the specific sizes of the plantings, but Scott said they would be generous sizes and anything we didn't like, he would change. He is a true artist and just had an eye for what would look good. Absolutely everything was better than expected, and the finished project exceeded our greatest expectations. <br /> We are so incredibly pleased with the final product! Working with Scott was such a pleasure. He is just a really nice person and delivered more than we could have envisioned. We definitely made the right choice. He was one of the recommended landscapers that Gerten's had given us, and most everything came from them. Of course we had to buy new patio furniture, since our old stuff looked pretty ratty in the new Garden of Eden setting. <br /> <br />"

"<p>We had previously worked with Chris and his crew on replacement of a failing timber retaining wall with a contoured block version. That earlier work involved demolition and removal of treated posts and lumber while extending a pre-existing section using an Anchor block product. The segmented, angular wall was replaced by a contoured design that provided more room for a prized shade tree. During this initial, 2012 phase, we found Chris very easy to work with. He was receptive to our concepts and offered constructive comments- we didn't want a deferential contractor that would let us make bad choices. Chris speaks up in a respectful way. The crew happily worked with street pavers that were on-site. <br /> That earlier work turned out so nicely that we resolved to continue the project the in 2013 as our vision for completion firmed up. There are obvious advantages to completing the entire job at once, but even using design software, it is difficult to feature how it will all turn out. Change orders and call-backs are no fun for anyone. For us, it worked to live with an incomplete project for a few seasons to really know what we wanted.<br />  <br /> The 2013 work would involve constructing low planters in both the front and back yards, extending the patio work in the back yard, adding edgers and completing sod work. Chris returned with the same crew (a plus for us) and was rarely not on site himself during either project. This work was complicated by an impending family reunion. To avoid damaging existing landscaping, most of this second phase was completed with wheelbarrows and hand tools.  Once again, there were design and material selection considerations as well as technical issues, including rainwater management.  There was no objection to the owners contributing labor. In turn, we tried to stay ahead of the crew or out of the way.</p> <br /> The entire project is now complete- we are delighted and have received nothing but compliments. <br /> <br />"

"We have used Working-For-You for several projects over the past 4 years and have always been very satisfied with their work. The projects ranged from total master bath floor tile and shower redesign; installed kitchen backsplash; removal of an old gas fire place and partial wall; and new deck stairs for upper level deck. Rob and Scott are very detailed oriented, courteous, punctual and fair on their prices. We highly recommend them!"

"Perfect job! The sidewalk was cracked and had ridges you could stumble over. They leveled it perfectly. I highly recommend them."

"We love the work and craftsmanship on our new walkways and stars. Scott and his crew did a fantastic job! I would highly recommend them! "

"They were able to remove limb and save the tree. Clear dead branches and a others that were close to roof. Worked very hard, hardly knew they were there. Cleaned up. The cost was reasonable, however well worth the care and treatment of the tree and our property. I would hire again without hesitation and already referred them to my new neighbor."

"This is a wonderful company! What we we essentially needed was to have a chainlink fence removed and to have the area reclaimed. I wasn't sure who to call for that kind of a project. We checked Angie's List for companies that dealt with fencing and were able to find several leads from people who installed fencing, contractors and landscapers. Of the people we called for estimates, Dusty impressed us the most with his understanding of what we needed done and his "Can do!" attitude. And he COULD DO! He and his crew were able to come out right away to do the work. As is usually the case there were unexpected things that came up--like having to move (and then replace) a pile of firewood piece by piece(!), but these were handled quickly and efficiently. Moreover, the crew was knowledgeable and meticulous in their reclamation work. They really are great landscapers in addition to solid overall workers. While we were originally apprehensive about how the lawn would look after having the fence torn out, we are now delighted. Thanks to Dusty and his crew we're wondering why we didn't do this sooner!"

"It went well. There was some confusion initially regarding what was to be shoveled but they were quick to clear it up. <br />"
