 + -1 moreLowell was easy to talk with and understanding of our needs, he added his expert advice to our plan. Employees showed up on time and worked hard. After the job was complete, Lowell said he did "thousands and thousands of dollars in extra work". My husband and I didn't feel like we should pay more for "extra work" we never approved or agreed upon. The contract specifically states, no additional fees unless additional work is agreed upon in writing. So the job ended on a sour note. He was suppose to come back and fix a few pavers, I'm guessing due to the sour note, he never did. Within months, the one wall is no longer straight, in dips down in two spots, which is very noticeable since the blocks should have a straight line. Then, after our first heavy rainfall, the blocks on the end fell/caved, we left msgs but no call back. We had to hire and pay someone else to fix it. Knowing what I've learned, I think he underbid the job and I think this job was too big for him and his company.
Description of Work: Two very large retaining walls torn down and replaced (140 feet long) along with a third retaining wall being added.

 + -1 moreEverything went exactly as it should. Lowell gave me an estimate very quickly and installed the drainage pipe a few days later. His estimate was considerably less than two other estimates and he seemed interested in doing the best job for the best price.

Description of Work: I had this provider pour a driveway and two sidewalks for my 70 year old mother in-law. when finished it looked like he had added 50 gallons of thirty weight oil to the cement, he refuses to make it right or refund her money.I most definitely would not recommend this provider. STAY AWAY FROM HIM

 + 2 moreJob went well. Work was as expected. Now the runoff from the gutters is distributed away from the side of the house. Windows are protected and basement is dryer as a result. Step 1 in getting my basement fully finished and watertight. I recommend this contractor for this type of grading and drainage work.
Description of Work: Graded and sloped yard alongside house for better runoff. Added window wells for each of my basement windows. Routed sump pump and gutter drainage out from an underground pvc pipe and spout to protect windows and basement.

 + 0 moreThey tore down an old retainer wall and replaced it around my flower bed. They said there was more dirt than they had thought.My said it was ok for them to put some dirt in a few low places in the back yard. We had a spot tilled up in the back yard to put in a garden, they filled that up with dirt and spread grass seed and put hay on it. They also threw the rest of the dirt up into my flowers, almost burying them. They just about killed 2 of my rose bushes. I asked for a few more blocks on the wall. It just didn't look right to me. The boss said if I wanted them I'd have to pay for them. They left a steel rod sticking out of the end. The man said he would be back to cut that off the next day, I knew after I paid him he wouldn't be back.

hardscaping
 + -1 moreSigned agreement in October. Didn't hear about scheduled start date so contacted office. I thought it was too late in the season and that job would need to wait for Spring. But after Christmas the work began. 3 men and a bobcat had all shrubs removed and old bricks out in one day. All materials I wanted to keep were placed where I specified. The crumbled bricks and green debris all removed and street and driveway swept before they left for the day. Following week the stone arrived and work began. I think only a couple days weather was a problem. As stonework went down I was kept informed of any issues. All my questions answered onsite by Chris, George, Todd or by owner Lowell by text. Any issues were resolved quickly and to my satisfaction. Each day the tools and dirt were cleaned up leaving driveway and walkway clear of debris. Bobcat made some ruts when pulling out yew stumps. The men were careful to thread the bobcat in between 3 established magnolia trees and no damage evident. Ruts were filled at end of job with seed and straw over fill. The soil fill in flower beds looks to be good quality and amended. Job bid did not include shrubs. The sod is thick and beautiful. Hoping for great results in the Spring. Broken sewer clean out stack was fitted with PVC cap and rubber gasket.
Description of Work: Tore out old yew stumps and old boxwoods and other shrubs. Dismantle broken brick retaining wall at driveway and along other side of house. Install brick retaining wall and garden boxes, front steps with paver landing. Correct broken sewer clean out stack. Graded portions of front lawn, laid sod in front yard, along side of house, and seeded other bare areas.

 + -1 moreThe job was to replace two timber tie-walls, one about 28' and the other about 53' long with stone retaining walls. I was never home to watch any of the work, and despite most of our correspondence being done by e-mail, phone, or hand-written notes, the job was done well. The old walls were removed, the new one built with proper drainage, and the disturbed areas were seeded and covered with straw. With additional effort the contractor was able to get the color I preferred. I'm pleased with the results. The quality of the finished wall is great and a big improvement. Trying to beat a forecast of bad December weather, the job was started on short notice and done quickly. I didn't have time to move the existing landscaping rock so a lot of it was buried, and my request to save some of the good timbers apparently came too late. Clean-up of timber splinters could have been a little better, and although I asked that the wall be placed in the same location as the old one, the new one was built four to six inches further out. This is not a big deal except that the base of the new wall crowds very close to two trees leaving little room for their growth. Not sure how that will affect the wall or the trees in the coming years. I contacted about six contractors in October. Three actually came out and gave me estimates. One was twice the amount of Missouri Landscape.

Description of Work: Missouri Landscape was hired to dig 6 inches deep into our yard and lay a 15 foot by 13 foot gravel pad using 1" minus. Level the dug out area. Our shed is to be placed on this gravel pad. The gravel pad was scheduled to be laid on a Monday - no one showed up and no phone call. We called Missouri Landscape office and was told they will be at our house no later than 9:30 am the following morning. I asked them to call my cell phone to let me know when they leave for my house (I work close to my house). No phone call. When my husband got home, the yard looked like a war zone. Yes, the gravel pad was laid but destruction all around it. The equipment left any where from 2 inches up to 16 inch ruts through the yard. We were not told our yard would be destroyed from their equipnment. That night we called his cell phone which had no voice mail set up. Luckily he was in the office. He said my husband had an "attitude". I think anyone would have an "attitude" after seeing their lawn in that state. We told him we want the ruts filled with dirt as well as our neighbor's yard. They ruined some of their yard. The next day dirt was brought in but only the front yard was filled. Again, there was no form of communication between us and them concerning how this mess will be fixed. There was a message on our phone from their office telling us there will be an additional charge of $100 for the dirt. You have got to be kidding me. You are charging us for the damage done to our yard. One week later, we still have not heard any more from this company. Our neighbors cannot believe the damage to our yard.

 + -1 moreMr. Lowell Kottwitz came to install a new drive way,sidewalks,a couple of pads and fix a lose gate post. All the work want on . in an average manner I guess, but when the new concrete set up it had the color of 10w-30. I swear it looked like someone poured oil in the concrete.The next week he sealed it with a concrete sealer, they rolled it on with rollers and they rolled this way and that way ,up and down , left and right .So when they where done you could see streaks all over the 10w-30 driveway. To get rid of the streaks some days later he took off the sealer using muramic acid which also took off the top finish. The concrete just looks terrible and for this 9,287 dollars were paid. The latest fix is to let the sun bleach it out.(REALLY) A letter was written asking for the work to be re-done or the money retuned.A few days later MR. KOTTWITZ called on the phone YELLING AND SCREAMING, saying he would do neither that the driveway and sidewalks are just fine and the sun would bleach them out to look good as new by spring time. The gate post he concreted in fixed the looseness but the gate does not swing without sticking now. To be clear it was I who recommended this contractor off ANGIES LIST to my 69 year old mother- in-law and feel totally responsible,that is why I am writing this review. NO I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS CONTRACTOR TO ANYONE!!! MISSOURI LANDSCAPE
Description of Work: Removed an old driveway and sidewalk and replaced it with a new one. Also added a small sidewalk to the backyard and poured a pad for a deck box and a small shed. He fixed a lose gate post.

 + 0 moreI solicited bids from several contractors, including Missouri Landscape, for repair of about 150 sq ft on my paver patio and to rebuild a small retaining wall. Lowell responded quickly and came out to estimate. He was very thorough and professional. I got a bid back in the mail within a week. The bid was competitive, but I ended up accepting another proposal to do the work due to a relationship with another contractor that was performing work. However, I was impressed with the way Missouri Landscape responded to my request, and would definitely consider them for future hardscaping work.
Description of Work: Provided estimate for partial patio rebuild and retaining wall rebuild.

 + -1 moreOnce Missouri Landscape started on the job they got down to business and seemed to do things in an orderly process. They took a little over a day to tear down the old wall and then spent the next two days rebuilding it. They discovered in tearing down the original wall that the cloth backing that had been installed had fallen down probably during the backfilling process...... Where the original wall had been vertical, Missouri Landscape stepped the blocks as each layer was laid. In addition they installed a perforated drain pipe behind the first layer of blocks along the length of the wall. All the work was done manually which insured that the cloth backing had little chance of falling down as the backfilling took place. I was also impressed as each layer of blocks was installed that great care was taken to make sure things were straight and level. Derek Simmons was in charge for most of the work and kept things running smoothly...
Description of Work: Missouri Landscape tore down and rebuilt a 61' x 36" vertical keystone block retaining wall that had been installed in 1995 and had begun to have a serious bow..

 + 2 moreI purposely waited to give this review, as I wanted to make sure I did not get any water in my basement since the service. I was getting some water in my basement on the North and West ends of my house during heavy rains. I talked to 2 other companies, and both of them involved the installation of a sump pump system, which would have cost me either $7000 or $10000. I wanted a less invasive solution if possible, and that is when I talked with Missouri Landscaping. They indicated that they believed the service I obtained would work best for the short term, and might eliminate the problem entirely. Thus far I have not had any water in my basement, and I know that we had at least 5 rains in the past year which would caused water in the basement previously. The only downside is that I am not a big fan of the looks of a window well (although I have had no problems with them), and it seems that the area which was graded away from my house has "shrunk" about 2-3 inches (which to me means the area filled was not compacted 100% properly). However, aside from those 2 relatively minor issues, I am happy with the results. I should also mention that I received a free estimate, work was done within the promised 2 week time period, and the overall job was completed in 2 consecutive days. I hope this helps others regarding their confidence in Missouri Landscape.
Description of Work: 1. Installed french drain on North end of house (runs from backyard to front yard), and an additional drain pipe (runs on top of the french drain) which connects 2 downspouts on the North end of my house to improve drainage on that side of house (where water tends to sit). 2. Installed 2 window wells (West side of house) for back 2 windows as the back area was graded (with approximately 4 yards of top soil) away from the house. 3. Seeded the area which was graded away from the house, and then placed straw on top.

 + 3 moreThe entire process was very easy- Lowell came out and told us what we needed to do to help redirect water from our side yard. He was able to do the work quickly, and the quality of the work was great. They dug out our side yard, added 4 window wells, ran out 40' of PVC, graded with about 8 inches of dirt- all in one day. The price was fair for the level of work being requested.
Description of Work: 4 window wells for upcoming new basement windows, graded sideyard for water runoff control, and combined Sump Pump and gutter drainage pipes and ran out towards the end of the yard to help prevent basement flooding.

 + 1 moreI was extremely happy with the entire experience working with Missouri Landscape from the responsiveness of the company to my initial inquiry, to the prompt estimate, to the workers who completed to job, to the quality of the work completed. The brick patio, while small, is exquisitely sited, perfectly designed, and beautifully installed--all exactly to my specification. The men that arrived to do the work on site were extremely polite, and worked well with me to make some last minute additions and changes to the placement of border bricks, etc. I would absolutely work with this company again for any landscaping needs.
