Report
I have used Schmitt's landscape for 2 major jobs at my home. Each time they have done an amazing job. Mark Schmitt is such an honest, intelligent, reputable man. He will come up with the best, cost-effective solutions for your home / yard issues. His crews are extremely polite, efficient, and always clean up when they leave. The customer service is probably the best I've ever had. Mark will either call you directly or text to convey info or to solve an issue. This is the only company you need for lawn, paver, or drainage issues.
