Drains didn't work. Instead of hydro-seeding, he put down some sort of straw with grass seed. My yard was a mud field for a month. Third time he came out, he installed one more drain, leveled the lawn and sodded. He complained that his profit on this job was gone.
Description of Work: Landscaped the back yard. Installed drains. Installed walls for new garden.

Response from Mark IV Landscaping
We acknowledge that there were additional drainage problems which we did not anticipate. We returned several times to rectify the problem, however because of the severe rains we experienced this spring, the time frame for the work took longer than expected and an extra drain and piping were installed at no additional cost. Seed and straw were used because the customer has dogs, and this method responds best under these conditions. As a final attempt to please the customer, new sod was installed at no additional cost to her. We sincerely feel that we attempted to give this customer A+ service as we do with all of our clients.

They were fine. He was just very pleasant. He was a very nice man and a very good owner. We just didn't go with them because his price was different than the other one.
Description of Work: Mark IV Landscaping came out and gave an estimate for some landscaping at a business that I work at.

We were experiencing water propblems at my wife's business. After any type of rain we experience standing water. We had Mark IV come out and take a look at the problem. As it turns out, there are some larger issues at play that go back to when the building was originally built and the elevations were originally recorderd. As a result, we needed to handle the project with our local municipality and did not need to use this companies services. I can tell you they were quick to return our intitial call and schedule a meeting to see our situation. The estimator was neat in appearence and very knowledgable. I would definately give this company opportunities to bid future work.
Description of Work: Estimate and suggestions.

He is absolutely fantastic. He re-graded and sodded swale. I have a wetland area in the back of my property and the farm. The water runs like a river. The swale keeps it off the property. Mark gives 110% to his customers. He can tackle what others can't with total efficiency. He is honest, straightforward, and reasonably priced. He offers a variety of landscaping needs. He really likes the challenging jobs.
Description of Work: He re-graded and sodded swale.

I have a wetland in the back of me and they had to put in a swale. I called different places and nobody knew what a swale was. I called him, but didn't know if he would come out because he was in Illinois. He came out and fixed it. He likes to do things that are different from other landscaping. He did a good job. I am planning to use him this year to check the pitch and re-sod. I was very happy with the work.
Description of Work: I use Mark IV Landscaping for all of my landscaping needs.
