Mark showed and as always did a great job at a fair price. He always goes the extra mile to help explain the needs of your plants and trees along with any other work he is doing. Mark handles all his work and you can really see a difference in the pride he takes compared to larger landscaping companies in the area.
Description of Work
Mark cleared the back of yard and brought cider blocks and bricks to fill in spaces at the bottom of my fence. He did a very nice and provided his expert advice on tree and plant care as well.

If you are reading all these positive reviews and wondering if the hype is real: it is. Mark does such hard work at a fair price, and he really cares about the finished product. So much so that he will do extra work to do the job right. He went above and beyond to teach me how to maintain the yard so it never reaches the bad state it was in again (and so I won't need to call him again). He said, "The next time I should hear from you is when you sell this house because this is a permanent job." I know what he meant, but I will absolutely be calling Mark for any future landscaping needs I have, and I would recommend him to anyone.

Mark Wenninger is the man for all things green and growing! This is the third time over the years that we have hired Mark once we saw his name on Angi. Our palm trees look like a million dollars under his care and he knows how to trim bushes so they look great. He is so knowledgeable and explains everything he is doing and why and how to make your whole yard look better. He cleans up all debris without harming any groundcovers (quite a feat) and hauls it all off. He is a true professional and his work shows it.

I saw reviews that said Mark "is the man." WOW that was correct. He was a one man dynamo - took out unnecessary bushes, pruned much needed bushes, got rid of the weeds and taught me (older lady) how to do that job with his secret formula and my new sprayer. I could not be happier - makes me smile when I go out on my back porch and look at his transformation of my back yard. I highly recommend Mark.

Mark responded quickly to my call for an estimate and was able to start to job the following day. The price was fair and he showed up when he said he would. He kept me informed throughout the work and cleaned up after himself each day. He gave me suggestions on how to best care for certain areas in my yard. I appreciated his advice and would not hesitate to hire him again.

Our front and back yard was a mess when we moved to our new house. Weeds and errant plants cropping up everywhere, overgrown shrubs up against the house, and the backyard had a badly conceived border of mismatched bricks sticking up at odd angles everywhere, it was a hazard to walk around. Mark came in and hauled out all the bricks, leveled the ground, and laid sod around the patio. It looks so nice now, with easy upkeep. He trimmed the whole yard, sprayed the weeds, and even gave us some chemicals for future applications. Four days of work turned out to be a very reasonable price. Very happy with my yard now.

Mark is a very nice, kind and hard working man. We had a lot of hedges that need a professional trim. Flower beds were a mess and full of debris. Weeds that became trees because our last gardener did not remove when small. He is very punctual, has a positive attitude and communication is great because he listens. Don’t hesitate to call him. Thank you, thank you, Mark.

I hired Mr. Wenninger to put sod in my tiny condo back yard. There were so many mistakes made that I need to list them instead of putting them in a paragraph. 1.) I told him that the yard was approximately 15 x 25 (it is actually a little smaller). He came out to check out; did he measure it to make sure the size was correct? No. (It seemed like he didn’t know how many square feet of sod is in a half pallet as he told me that all the extra could be used in the front of the house; he nearly ran out.) 2.) In doing some research, unfortunately ‘after the fact’, I discovered that the site needs to be prepared; leveled, and dug up at least 2 inches deep to support the new roots of the sod, and watered prior to laying the sod. Was any of that done? No. 3.) The sod pieces need to be laid staggered like laying patio blocks, and each piece needs to be installed very tightly next to the surrounding pieces. Was that done? No. (Now there are very obvious lines/gaps were the rows were not properly installed.) 4.) The grass started turning brown at one side of the yard, and within two days the brown area had more than doubled in size. I asked him to come back and check it, but he refused. His recommendation over the phone (not having seen the grass) was to fertilize it....even though the rest of it was still lush and green. He sent me to a store that sells only lawn and garden supplies and chemicals. I took photos of the yard with me and showed them to the senior expert. He immediately said the brown was not due to fertilization, but due to the bugs that needed to be sprayed for immediately after the sod was laid, and watered thoroughly. (In order to save money for the sod farm, they apparently stopped treating the sod for insects, especially army worms that are prevalent in the south this time of year, and expect that the landscaper will do that.) Was that done? No. When I first reported the issue and told Mr. Wenninger he did not give me the correct solution, and when I told him that it was figured out by someone else, he said that ‘we all make mistakes and are all learning’. HUH? The landscaper should know what the issues are and preemptively avoid them. It’s ridiculous to expect the homeowner to know what the problem is, or what to do to fix it. He should have come out and looked at the yard for himself. When I told him what the actual professional said, he said he was glad that I found the problem and fixed it. What kind of professional does that? So I fixed the (his) problem by getting the chemical and spraying it; that only stopped the infestation, but did not fix the problem of the dead grass. When I contacted him again about replacing the infected/dead sod, he immediately told me that he would have to pick up another 1/2 pallet of sod and that there would be a lot left over so it could be put in the front of the condo, and that he would give me a quote to do that. Seriously. When I asked if he thought that I was going to pay him to do part of the job over (hopefully correctly) he told me that it was not his fault. I also asked him to come out and look at it to see if it might be salvaged, and he refused to even do that. Instead, he told me to go back to the place where I got the bug spray and ask them for advice for next steps. Yes, he not only accepted NO responsibility for any of his mistakes, but sent me to figure out how to fix them. He told me that he would put a quote together for me to pay him to remove the grass that his negligence killed, pay for more sod, and pay him to install it. That’s who I was dealing with; no knowledge of site prep, no support after installation, no acceptance of any responsibility for work done incorrectly, no guarantee of work. And, after multiple requests, no proof of licensing. (Working on that issue with Angie’s List and the licensing board.) When you hire somebody to do work, make sure they provide a written contract, and that they will support the job if there are issues, that there work is insured, and that they are professionals with a valid license.

It went very well, this was his second time in my yard, the first was to remove overgrown weeds and trees and haul them off. He work was very good and that is why I hired him to do the landscaping work. Highly Recommend him.
Description of Work
A plan for the bushes and trees around the house and backyard. He assessed the area, recommended removal of some and reshaping other bushes. Mr. Wenninger removed the unwanted bushes, reshaped and trimmed the remaining, fill the holes with topsoil and filled all the other holes in my back yard. He leveled the ground where there were mounds of clay.

Amazing. We weren't sure who to ask for lawncar services, and we took a shot in the dark on Mark. He responded quickly, came by to estimate quickly, and was extremely helpful in giving advice in what to do. If you're unsure how to make your yard better, this is the guy to talk to. It's clear he has many years of doing this work. We're so lucky we ran to this guy first, and his price is very reasonable. Can't recommend enough.

He was very friendly and professional. Arrived on time to give me the quote and the very next day to commence and complete all the work. We then toured the house and he provided terrific recommendations for setting the bushes all around the house. I will be bringing him back to do the design portion of landscaping around the house, which will include removal of unwanted/ugly bushes and replacement of others to balance the overall look. Can't say enough about this gentleman.

Mark was knowledgeable and professional. We met initially to walk the yard and discussed various options to achieve the best outcome. The finished product exceeded my expectations. The price was reasonable and the project was finished in a timely manner. I would highly recommend him, I have used many landscapers over the years, and have never been satisfied. I will definitely use him again in the near future.
