Get matched with top outdoor kitchen builders in Forest Lake, MN

"I rank Landson Construction #1 in the list of contractors we have hired in our 40 years of home ownership. Ari and his team of subcontractors recently completed a challenging remodel of one of our bathrooms--challenging because it is a very small area with limited space. Their finished job looks better than our separate remodel of a larger bathroom completed by one of the big firms that advertises daily on television. Examples: the tile work in our small shower is exceptional, and the vanity/oversized sink is a perfect match that does not dominate the small room. Ari Erickson (no relation to me) offered selections from his preferred vendors, but we had full latitude to shop on our own for all tile and fixtures. He and his subcontractors kept us fully apprised at all stages of the project, arrived promptly throughout the course of the work, responded promptly to our texts and emails, and cleaned up their work area at the end of each day. My highest recommendation: I always seek at least four bids for a major project, but I would forego that process and hire Landson Construction again for future building/remodeling projects, and would encourage friends and family to do the same."

"They did the entire yard for our new build. Rock gardens, grading, sprinkler system, new soil. Hydo seed and it all looks fantastic! Under 4 days start to finish in blistering heat. These are your guys."

"Lester and crew were amazing, finished beautifully, cleaned up the area and made me proud of my landscaping and new firepit area. I cannot say enough great things about In The Rough!!! I so enjoyed them and will use them again for all my stone and outdoor projects. They are the best!"

"Aaron got pretty sick at the beginning of the year and at the time we thought we had a strict deadline to get the work done which my nephew later helped us work through.  Due to some misunderstandings, email communication was left open-ended and therefore we ended up hiring someone else which I really did not want to do because I was so impressed with his work ethic, his knowledge, and with him and his wife as people.   <br /> Aaron cared enough to follow up with me - while his prices are great, for me communication is primary.  I can see that he *really* cares about his customers which is unusual in today's world.  He's a one-man show, so people will probably have to wait to get into his schedule, however, I am so impressed with him that next time we need work done (and we will need it done, for sure), I will be calling him first.  Good contractors are hard to find, and after just moving to this area, we're building our list of friendly, quality people that feel more like friends than contractors - people I know I can call if I have a question or who have the ethics to make it right if something goes wrong (and it rarely does).  I feel that Aaron definitely falls into this category quality people. <br /> While I scored him a 'B' on professionalism and responsiveness due to the misunderstanding, I'm rating him an 'A' overall because of my initial impression and his great follow-up, and quite frankly due to the fact that I hope to hire him for my next job! <br />"

"Dale, and his staff at Aquatic Rock Formations, is a true professional at installing, repairing, and updating water features. Dale is a problem solver, who is creative and dedicated to doing the job correctly the first time. His extensive experience led him to discover the specific issue with the auto fill on my waterfall on his first visit just three days after contacting him. He immediately telephoned me about the repair, estimated cost, and scheduled the time just a couple of weeks in the future. When an unrelated, unexpected issue was recognized during the repair, he made time in his schedule to return the following day to finish. Then he returned back within two days of the completion to make sure that it operated as expected. It was comforting to be able to reach him when questions arose. The price was both similar to the estimate and fair. I had worked with two other companies regarding the same problem with the auto fill and both were unable to diagnose nor remediate the issue over a four-month time period. I was so impressed by Dale that a number of weeks later, I contacted him about installing lights on the falls. They look fabulous! I plan on using only him for my future projects and highly recommend him for planning, building, repairing, or updating water features."

"Diana spent about 90 minutes walking through both our backyard and front yard and giving us advice on layout, plantings, outdoor "room" planning and fencing ideas.  She had great advice on rethinking our original ideas and also gave us the names of some great local resources for materials for our project. <br />"

"Bleeker’s Landscaping and Nursery turned our landscaping vision into a stunning reality. The Bleeker Family made our landscaping process - from start to finish - easy. From refining our design and helping with plant selections; laying our beautiful paver patio; installing bullet edging, large decorative rocks (that have so much character) and landscape rock; installing a well-designed irrigation system and finally laying our sod, the entire project was done professionally in a friendly manner. We appreciated their communication and accessibility along the way. And we can’t say enough about Bleeker’s crew - also professional, friendly and very talented in their work. We love every minute we spend in our new outdoor spaces. We couldn’t be happier - we love it!"
