Ideal Landscape Group is based in south St. Louis County. We aren't the largest, but we are locally owned and family operated with strong roots within the community. We are a commercial landscape company offering professional landscape design, construction, and property maintenance services.

Whether your commercial landscape project is large or small, we have the tools, manpower and expertise to handle it.

As a member of Planet (Previously Associated landscape contractors of America) we have adopted the following code of ethics and core commitments to our customers, our employees, and the landscape industry.

Empowering snow & ice management for success is our mission. We are a non-profit trade association with a focus on training, events, and best practices related to snow plowing, ice management, and business management. The National Association of Landscape Professionals is the trade association for the landscape industry, representing the voice of more than 100,000 landscape professionals. Member companies specialize in lawn care, landscape design and installation, landscape maintenance, tree care, irrigation and water management, and interior plantscaping.

Founded by current president Dave Buckel in 1985, the company started from a one-man operation in the early days until eventual incorporation as Dave's Lawn & Landscape Services, Inc. The company operated profitably for many years taking on residential and commercial turf maintenance and landscape installation projects. As demand for commercial landscape projects increased, Dave's Lawn & Landscape Services decided to switch its focus from residential to high-end grounds maintenance services. After our capabilities and credentials steadily grew, the need arose to create a brand that our customers could identify with and one that could take us into the future.
