We discussed a very large front yard undertaking with him. We wanted a "low grass" front yard concept and I explained to him some general flowers and plants I wanted involved. He put an outdoor landscaping "floor plan" together if you will. We talked things through and after some slight adjustments, we moved forward! He was great to organize and plan with. The issue is the timing of all of the plants and when they would be arriving due to the "zone" we are in. On the day of the project he and his team member arrived bright and early, discussed the plan and drawing once again to make sure we were all on the same page and got to work. Ben handled much of the getting rid of the grass and having level and even dirt. We had him bury a pipe regarding our excess water pump so that it was clean and underground and to the sidewalk. Then all of the plants were put into place and everything was covered with mulch. We even had him take out some large bushes that were in the back yard as part of the project while he was here. He was great to work with, had awesome follow up and always explained why something was happening. In his profession there obviously are some weather dependencies, so he was always good about keeping us informed if something had to slightly shift in the schedule.

We had used Mike for several small jobs before and that work was adequate - not award winning, but…read moreokay. This time we called him and told him we wanted a really nice job. He was supposed to tear out the old linoleum and then install the limestone over a heated floor mat. He said no problem and gave us quote, after first looking at the job. He assured us the work would be first rate. We specifically told him not to cut any of the tiles in the house, as we knew that would cause dust, from previous tile work we have had done. In fact, we said we did not want it cut even in the garage, as the dust would get on cars. We walked him through the job and how we wanted the moldings removed and then reinstalled back on top of the tiles once they were laid. He was surprised by that fact and said he usually did not do that. He usually just mortars up to the moldings while they are in place and leaves them half buried under the tile. We have seen that approach before and to our taste it does not look good. He eventually understood and agreed with us. We went back over how we wanted all of the linoleum removed as well. We wanted the new tiles bonded to concrete, not linoleum. This he wholeheartedly agreed with and said it was "no big deal, just a putty knife and a few minutes work." Mike then eventually reneged on installing the heated mat and said we needed to have that done by someone else. We grudgingly did so. Better to do it right than have someone reluctant do it, we thought. Mind you, he did not lower his price, but let that go. Next, I came home when they had half finished the work, only to be able to determine that they did not rip out all of the linoleum, as promised! Also, they had cut the tile inside the house and there was dust everywhere - including even inside the DVD drawers when you eject DVDs from the players! It was on everything! I called Mike and he gave a lame excuse about needing to cut the tiles inside because it had been raining outside and how he needed to leave the linoleum in place in order to taper the mortar over the heated mat. Something we discussed at the outset and said he could easily do - taper over the mat. He excuses were clearly lies. He said the tile on the linoleum would never come loose and we should not worry about it. He would warranty it for two years. Gee thanks! Mike then finished the rest of the job and the tiles are installed crooked, the mortar joints do not line up and the tiles are not level. It looks like a high school kid trying to do tile for the first time. However, that is not all! He threw away the moldings he removed and then had the audacity to say that not only he, but his employees heard us say that we wanted him to throw away the moldings, as we had selected, "fluted moldings and wanted to put those on ourselves." This really went above and beyond even his earlier lies about needing to leave the linoleum in place and cutting the tiles inside! For one thing, to this day, we do not even know what "fluted molding" is and we never considered replacing it. Mike then told us that if we order the correct tile for moldings he would install that at no charge and clean up the previous mess from cutting the tiles inside and would correct some of the crooked tiles and the off-center grout joints. We received the trim tiles and then tried calling Mike several times. He would not answer or return our calls. I would use other people's phones in order to get him to answer the calls. Eventually, he simply told us he would do nothing further and we woud have to do whatever we had to do. We have now had another tile guy look at it and he advises that we should not even consider taking out the old tiles now, as the whole job would basically have to be done over and it would be more work than it is worth. He said it is a shame that the work was done so shoddy. He will install the tile trim and we will have to live with it like that. My advice to you, do not even think of using this guy or this place! He also has been advertising under the services section of the local newspaper. He uses several telephone numbers and this one is his cell, he is also listed as Mike's tile and Stone. It is the same guy. Go anywhere else!

We received several quotes from various metro Milwaukee area landscaping companies on a complete…read moreredesign of the landscaping surrounding our home. We had a specific plan that was a bit "outside the box" from what the typical customer is looking for in design and foliage. Our goal was to use only unique native Wisconsin plants that came from nearby nurseries to reduce our carbon footprint, without any shrubs, bushes or evergreens. Also, wanted species that would thrive without the use of chemical fertilizers or herbicides. The representatives from the first 3 landscaping companies that came to look at the project seemed confused and unsure on what we were trying to accomplish. Then we came upon Eco Harmony! I mentioned to Mike that we love to explore the trails at Schlitz Audubon Nature Center and were going for that type of vibe. He followed up with a plan and design we loved. Aside from coming up with a design that matched our vision, what really impressed us was how Mike went out of his way to meet with us at less than convenient hours. I typically don't get home from work until 8PM. Mike met with us several times in the later evening to finalize plans. His patience and easy going approach were much appreciated as well. Highly recommend Eco Harmony!
