Home Services reviews in Fitchburg, Wisconsin

The “crew” had a sweltering day for hauling decorative stone to our backyard. They prepped the area and installed landscape fabric. Then, they transported a few TONS of stone to the backyard. Being careful of our trees and bushes, they installed the stone over the area and cleaned up any trace that they had ever been there.
We are ecstatic with our new backyard appearance and function.
If we need anything else, we will definitely call YOU! Thank you!

When the director of a botanical garden recommends a landscape architect by name, you know the experience will be stellar. And that's what it was for us when we hired Sean Pratt/Ganshert Landscapes to create our landscaping after building our new home. Sean was both in tune with my desire for native plants and a pollinator-friendly environment as well as my vision for a mid-century modern type of landscape plan to complement our home. People stop all the time to admire his artistry. The process was a pleasure - from initial plans to installation to billing. Just wish my yard was larger so I could have Ganshert Landscapes create even more!

I’ve known the team at Ganshert Landscapes for over 17 years, and they are truly salt-of-the-earth people. The kind you trust without question. Loyal to their clients, loyal to their craft, and absolutely dedicated to doing things the right way—every time.

Their work speaks for itself: thoughtful design, exceptional quality, and a level of care that’s hard to find these days. Whether it’s a small garden update or a full outdoor transformation, they treat every project like it’s their own home.

If you’re looking for a landscaping partner who stands by their word, delivers beautiful results, and is simply a joy to work with—Ganshert is it.

Sean, Brian, and Tanner built a patio for our backyard and we were very satisfied with their professionalism and with the end result! They got it done early enough in the summer where we have been able to get a lot of use out of it. Maddie also helped us with some landscaping in our front yard that we are very happy about.

We contacted Ganshert for help resolving drainage problems with the patio and walk between our house and garage. Sean created a design that regraded the area and incorporated a small rain garden. He turned the areas too shady to grow grass into curving planting beds. Michael and Al did a fabulous job installing permeable pavers for the walk and patio and built a great pergola. We knew we would enjoy the new area in spring, summer and fall, but we REALLY appreciate it in winter. Snow and ice melt quickly off the pavers Sean recommended, and there’s no icy build up in front of our garage door any more. We’re very pleased with our Ganshert experience.

I honestly don’t have enough good things to say about Sean, Matt, Ramone, and Rae.

It all started with Sean—he took the time to truly understand what we wanted, asked all the right questions, and designed a patio that was even better than we’d imagined. He brought creative ideas we hadn’t considered and turned our vague wishes into a clear, beautiful plan we absolutely loved.

Once work began, Matt, Ramone, and Rae brought Sean’s vision to life with flawless execution. The attention to detail was outstanding: perfectly level pavers, gorgeous built-in seating, a great fire-pit area, and lighting that makes the space feel magical after dark. They showed up when they said they would, protected our property, kept the site clean, and finished the entire project on a tight schedule.

Sean is an exceptional designer and communicator, and Matt, Ramone, and Rae are true craftsmen who take real pride in their work. Together they’re an unbeatable team—and genuinely nice, fun people we actually miss having around. (They even raked our leaves and took them to the curb without being asked!)

Our new patio has transformed how we use our outdoor space, and we couldn’t be happier. If you want a stress-free process and a stunning result, hire Sean and this crew—you won’t regret it!

We absolutely LOVE and highly recommend Ganshert! We have done 3 major projects with them in our backyard, all of which have turned out exceptional! The crew is also incredibly timely, non-intrusive, and clean - we never had any issues with them leaving supplies out or a mess. We will never even consider another landscaping/hardscaping company!

Great landscape plan and communications. On time, professional, and did a great job. More plants are going in next Spring. I appreciate the installation of lighting.

This was a massive overhaul project…a complete re-do of landscaping that went all the way around our house. The project included removing all existing landscaping, rock, and thistle overgrowth. Our front porch was redone with beautiful pavers, and we added lighting and extra tree plantings. In addition, the entire home had new stone borders laid. It turned out beautifully. Errin is top-notch. Such an attention to detail! And the crew was pleasant, professional, and extremely hard working. Can’t say enough good things about their work…my pictures don’t do it justice!

From the moment we met Sean, we knew we were in good hands. He was incredibly personable and immediately understood our vision for the landscape of our new home. The connection was instant, and his ability to design a layout that not only complemented our house but also transitioned beautifully through the seasons was absolutely mind-blowing.

Now, if only the rest of our home-building process had been as smooth… (At this point, we’ve been waiting so long, we were tempted to start charging admission for a “Tour of the Perpetually Unfinished House.”) But amidst the chaos, Ganshert Landscapes was a beacon of efficiency. While we dealt with endless delays, and enough rescheduled deadlines to make our heads spin, Sean and his team were the first ones to finish—and not just finish, but absolutely nail it. Our house was still a construction zone, but thanks to them, at least the outside looked like someone actually lived here!

From Sean’s brilliant design to Craig, Hipolito, Lucas, Mike, and Javier bringing it to life with the plantings, and Brian and David meticulously crafting the hardscapes in our courtyard (which, by the way, was like assembling the world’s hardest puzzle—except the pieces were 100-pound stones), this team is the definition of professional, talented, and hardworking. They create outdoor spaces so stunning that we briefly considered pitching a tent outside just to enjoy it while waiting for the house to be done.

When we envisioned our landscape, we wanted it to reflect our heritage, and Sean and his team made that vision a reality. For example, I desperately wanted a Bugambilia tree, just like the ones I grew up with in Mexico. The moment I mentioned it, Sean whipped out his zones chart like a plant scientist, shook his head, and immediately broke the news that it wouldn’t survive Wisconsin’s winters. (Apparently, nature doesn’t care about my nostalgia.) But instead of leaving me heartbroken, he found me the Wisconsin version of it—a tree with flowers the exact same color. That level of thoughtfulness is just one of the many reasons Ganshert is in a league of its own.

One of the most meaningful parts of this journey was when I lost my dad during construction—Sean thoughtfully selected the perfect tree to hold his ashes and honor his memory. That level of care goes beyond landscaping; it’s creating something truly special.

And their talents don’t stop with landscaping! Ganshert also removes snow in the winter (because while we love our beautiful yard, we do not love shoveling it). And if, like us, you happen to accidentally acquire an apple orchard with your house, Maddie will be there to prune the trees like a pro while you wait for your dream home to finally be move-in ready. (Seriously, who knew tree pruning was a service we needed?!)

Honestly, we’re considering installing a plaque with the Ganshert logo on our pavers so when people ask, "Who did your landscaping?" we can just point to it and save ourselves the explanation. If you're looking for a team that brings expertise, dedication, and a personal touch to their work, Ganshert Landscapes is the one to call. I can’t wait to keep working with them for years to come!

They took care of all of the weeds , and there were a lot of weeds!

Was great to communicate with.

Incredible service. Have received many compliments on my lawn this summer.

Tyler is an amazing, outgoing person!! His landscape company is excellent!!

Disgusting people, did a horrible job & left without finishing or giving me a refund. Tyler not only is really unprofessional but is rude and disrespectful

Tyler has done my lawn and snow plowing for 6 years. Very dependable.

Tyler was great to work with! Very happy with how our yard and landscaping turned out.

I’ve been doing business with this company for several years and reliable. From landscaping to snow plowing. They kept me updated and give me options what I can do. Keep up the good work.

My driveway is so nicely cleared off! And the drivers are super friendly and helpful. I’ve recommended them to all my neighbors for snow removal and landscaping

TL Landscape does a great job maintaining my lawn. Great communication, show up when they say they will (unlike predecessor), would highly recommend 100%!

We are very happy with Tyler and his crew. Reasonably priced and they do a great job. We will be customers for a long time.
