**★★★★★ — HU-58041946, Jan. 2019**

> Justin and his crew were phenomenal to work with on our project.  Justin captured our vision during our first walkthrough and he proceeded to develop the perfect plan with our budget.  He is a master designer and his crew is so creative too.  They did an amazing job.  We had them add on some things at the end which put the frosting on the cake. We had several challenges with our property but they came up with great creative solutions. The landscape lighting they added at the end absolutely glows.  We would use them again in a flash and would highly recommend them to our Best Friends!

**★★★★★ — User, May 2016**

> Waconia Landscaping does excellent work.  They installed a large retaining wall in our back yard, removing the old timber wall and replacing it with a block wall.  They also installed additional sod, new plants and rock.  The project turned out great, exceeding our expectations.  It also came in on time (given uncontrollable whether delays) and on budget.
>
> What sets them apart is their attention to detail and perfection.  They take the additional time necessary to make it as perfect and aesthetically pleasing as possible.  They also provide great suggestions for improving your project.  Finally, they're really nice, honest people who are a pleasure to work with.
>
> We would definitely hire them again for future projects and highly recommend them to others looking for landscape work.

**★★★★★ — jill pierce, Feb. 2016**

> Justin and his team at Waconia Lanscaping are wonderful! Justin has done many projects( landscaping and lighting) in our backyard around our pool and our front yard.  He has even fixed mistakes made by other hired landscapers. Justin is very knowledgeable when it comes to recommending perennials, shrubs and trees and where to plant them for best growth. His landscaping crew is professional, polite and easy to work with. Justin responds promptly to my phone calls or emails and arrives when he says he will. I highly recommend Waconia Landscaping for your next project.

**★★★★★ — jaschutt, Feb. 2016**

> We had a very positive experience working with Waconia Landscaping Co.  Justin is so easy to talk to and he is very attentive to detail.  Their follow through when certain plants did not survive was amazing.  We are currently building a new home and are planning to bring Waconia Landscaping Co. in as our landscape architects.  Highly recommend this company.

**★★★★★ — bear12r, Feb. 2016**

> Justin and his crew installed a brick paver walkway and granite step along the side of our home this spring.   Justin was very professional from the initial estimate to completion of the job with suggestions on how the job would be done since it did require some regrading.    Everything was done thoroughly, completely and within estimate.   He and his crew were very polite and respectful.   Justin is prompt in keeping you updated and is good at responding to phone calls and questions.     We have also hired Justin and Waconia Landscaping to do our seasonal lawn fertilizing.   Highly recommend them!  We will definitely call Justin should we have future landscaping needs.

**★★★★★ — Dan DeFore, Feb. 2016**

> Justin and his team installed a firepit area in our backyard last Summer.  We liked working with Justin and his team did a very good job.  He was very diligent in helping us throughout the process.  We would enthusiastically recommend Waconia Landscaping.

**★★★★★ — lsipprell, Feb. 2016**

> Justin's work was stellar...our paver patio was very complicated with needing detailed design and installation for accommodate water flow away from the house. His attention to detail was outstanding. He did an initial project in 2014, since it looked so beautiful, we asked him to complete another project in 2015. His creative ideas for design were appreciated. Also, he was prompt in his communication with us. We would highly recommend him.

**★★★★★ — jjbarton, July 2014**

> We hired GGP Outdoors to build a retaining wall and outside fireplace with surrounding landscape. We were thrilled with results and they were very easy to work with. Whenever I had questions or changed things on the project, they were very receptive. I would highly recommend them for any of your outdoors projects.

  - Description: The client wanted to take the backyard firepit concept and move it to the front yard. In the overall property layout of this modern horse farm, it makes great sense. Located between the residence and the barn, it creates a welcoming space to settle in with family and friends on summer nights to relax after chores are through. The red clay pavers were selected to extend the brick front porch to welcome you to the home. They are also similar materials to the grand fireplace in the main room.
- [Chanhassen Oasis](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/chanhassen-oasis-pj-vj~6844768)
  - Location: Chanhassen, Minnesota

  - Description: The client initially wanted an outdoor fireplace and pizza oven they could use in all four MN seasons. Adding the built in grill and serving island allowed storage and created a nice, cozy space to enjoy conversation and relaxation while cooking. The space also joins the entry of the backyard pool. The fireplace adds a whole new experince for entertaining throughout the year.

  - Photos: 1
  - Description: The site had a steep sloping yard with three fert of rock around the foundation. To accommodate the hot tub we cut into the hillside with an L shape block retaining wall with cap. The cap also serves as a drink ledge/seat when using the hot tub. The patio space allows for a bar table and some chairs to sit around and watch the game on the outdoor tv.
