High Prairie is a great company if you are into landscaping/hardscaping. Working there, I felt like family. I had no problems with anybody there, because everyone was so kind and caring. I even made friends along the way which was nice. All of the project managers, and foremen are all great to work with. Again, they are all kind and if you had any questions, they’d help you out. Robyn the owner of High Prairie is one of the nicest people I have ever met. She’s so caring, kind and supportive to all her employees. I’m so amazed of her success and it’s very inspirational to see how she went from a truck and trailer, to a company with multiple employees and an amazing company atmosphere. I love how at the end of the day, before leaving our customers house, we would always clean up and make the place look like we were never there. I’m so glad to have worked for High Prairie and I would recommend that anyone who is in landscaping, to join High Prairie and become a part of their family! They take such good care of us and the owner Robyn is so sweet!

What a delight! High Prairie took our tired, 30-year-old front yard landscaping and breathed new life into it. It’s stunning! From the very first meeting with Justin, we were kept informed of the process at every step. We most appreciated the professionalism and top-notch communication along the way. Everyone who helped with the project seemed to truly enjoy making our front yard more beautiful (despite the brutal heat). The HPLG team sets the standard for outstanding customer service. You have our endless thanks!

High Prairie went above and beyond with our project. From the moment I met with Katy (our designer), I knew that I had chosen the right company for our job. Katy took what I envisioned our landscaping to be and delivered an even better result. The communication and knowledge behind all the crew members was outstanding. I never once felt left out of the loop and was always updated immediately if there were any changes or weather delays. The construction and installation crew were always so nice and respectful. They even showed off some of the machines they were using to my little kids.The end result has not only added value to our property, but complements the style of our home. I plan to use High Prairie for future projects and would 100% recommend to anyone looking for a one stop company for all your landscaping needs.

High Prairie Landscaping transformed my tired yard landscaping to a lush perennial landscape that is easy to maintain. Katy was terrific to work with on the design side. All the crews were extremely professional, knowledgeable, and committed to doing top notch work. I will continue to use the company for landscape updating and highly recommend their staff and services.

High Prairie did a wonderful job and I would highly recommend them.They provided good advice on my project idea and presented me with an easy to understand bid. Their crews are experienced, hard working, and detail oriented. They were also nice and answered any questions I had while they were onsite working.My goal was to get a great end result and have low stress throughout the process. These folks will get it done right, done well, and the process will be smooth.

We dreamed of enlarging our patio for years and stumbled upon High Prairie Landscape pictures. We fell in love and scheduled a meeting with a designer, Katy, thinking we could never afford it. Katy came up with an amazing patio and landscaping concept and made it within our budget. The construction crew and installation team were all amazing. They worked hard, all day in the heat, and always cleaned up at the end of the day so that our dog could still use our yard. When we had questions, there was immediate feedback. Everyone was so kind and professional. We were/are blown away by this company and how much their design and product has added to our house. We LOVE our outdoor space and are so grateful to High Prairie for making our patio dreams come true.

We have used High Prairie for the design and maintenance of thelandscaping at our Leawood home. The initial design and installation went very well and we have been extremely pleased with their maintenance service. Their team is very professional and have done a great job of keeping our landscaping in wonderful shape throughout the year. Our relationship has been in place for over 5 years and we highly recommend High Prairie Landscape to our friends and neighbors.Steve Gound

We recently completed a total patio replacement and landscaping redesign. The original patio was over 40 years old. Their design remained complimentary to the age of the house as well as selection of materials. Most impressive was the quality of the flagstone installation. They were pleasant to deal with and would definitely hire them again.

Katy Doll was our landscape designer, and she was great from start to finish! She assisted with an incredible berm design for our yard, as well as coordinated a project on an outdoor kitchen smoker installation. Both projects turned out beautiful. All of the High Prairie employees that came out were professional and very friendly. As can be expected on a large job, there were a couple of evergreens that didn’t survive the transplant shock, which I know sometimes happens. High Prairie and Katy were very quick and easy to work with to get the replacement plants, and Katy was great about providing updates throughout the entire process. I would highly recommend High Prairie Landscape for any of projects, as they are a great group to work with!

We have used High Prairie since 2017 and are very pleased with their customer service and scope of work. Bruce and the entire crew are a pleasure to work with! From the landscape plans to the care of our lawn, we feel we are listened to and communicated with regularly. We enjoy seeing the same friendly faces take pride in their work of our property. We highly recommend High Prairie!

The High Prairie Landscape Group was a pleasure to work with from design to finish. Their team was available, responsive and and very courteous. Talked through multiple design options until we arrived at the right one. The installation team welcomed questions and explained in great detail to ensure the end product was exactly what we had visioned. Would definitely work with High Prairie again!

We have contracted High Prairie to essentially redo our entire outdoor landscaping. While their estimate is the highest bid we received their service and work ethic has been seamless. We have decided to complete our work in phases with phase 1 completed. We worked with designer Katy Doll who has been attentive and presented us with a design that addressed all our concerns with current landscaping and that fit with our overall desired design. Unfortunately we could not find this with other landscape architects. Their workers arrived on time everyday, dressed in uniforms, considerate with parking on the street and friendly. They worked throughout the entire day, cleaned up at the end of the day and answered questions without hesitation. We would recommend High Prairie without hesitation and are looking forward to the completion of our project.

High Prairie did a complete landscape and drainage project at our home and we couldn’t be happier with the service we received. From the landscape designers (Katy and Joe) to the project foreman, Tad, everyone was so kind and very professional . All of our questions were promptly answered and we were impressed with the quality of the work that was done. I highly recommend this company!

The staff were very friendly as well as professional. I’ve had no experience with landscaping or gardening, and they helped me create a beautiful yard that will require simple maintenance on my part. Their follow up on projects and customer service is outstanding. They are always available to answer questions which has been so helpful to me as I learn to care for my yard.

My backyard is phenomenal, thanks to High Prairie Landscape Group! I knew that I wanted a new deck, and something fantastic. But I didn’t know exactly what. The HPLG crew designed me a deck, spa/pool, fire pit, grill and landscaping that makes jaws drop (mine included). I can’t believe this is actually my backyard! I felt like all of my questions were answered and my needs addressed in a timely manner. The bid for the project was very detailed, so I knew exactly what the charge was for every material and service. This allowed me to know where I could select more or less expensive options to put my money where I wanted. Additionally, EVERY SINGLE member of the company was professional. I know that I made the right choice in working with HPLG, and I would chose them again.

As another contractor in the industry I see and work with many other landscape companies and contractors. We are always glad to work with Robyn Schmitz and staff with High Prairie Landscape Group!Aside from excellent quality and craftsmanship, we’re consistently impressed with how well they plan for their projects, how well everyone in the company communicates, the professionalism of everyone on the team, and how clean and organized they keep their job sites. These variables all translate to a good experience not only for us, but it’s very apparent their clients love working with them too!I would highly recommend working with High Prairie and I will personally continue to refer them to my client base as well!

Can’t say enough about this company! We just finished a project with them. Joe Lyon designed our plan ( front sides and back). Beautiful design, we also used them to plant as well as plan our lighting. We have never used lighting and it is just fantastic. Everything he recommended is perfect. In a week’s time we have had no leas than 6 people ask who we used and take down their contact info. You are working with complete professionals -!you will love them!

High Prairie Landscape Group is the most professional landscaping company the area. From design ideas, to exact planning to installation, HPLG was amazing. The staff know their craft, and take pride in their work. Most importantly, their communication was perfect. Time lines and expectations were met as promised. The worksite was clean when the job was completed. They are a joy to work with.

The High Prairie team were fantastic to work with! Nathan was very helpful and efficient and provided great advice and guidance including a calendar of care moving forward. A beautiful selection of plants was recommended which really fit with our lifestyle. The installation team of Tyler, Ryan, Andrew, Chris and LJ worked tirelessly in the heat to produce a fantastic result which will bring us joy for many years to come. Thanks guys! Highly recommended!

This is was my first time having professional landscaping done at a property, and let me tell you High Prairie made it a very painless process. Nathan was our designer, came to our home, consulted, stayed in clear communication, and even made a video rendering of what our final product looked like.Once work started, the entire crew (despite the 90 + degree weather) worked fast and diligently to get the job done. We even had some massive rains in the middle of the project, but the crew was in high spirits to repair the rain damage. Thank you Nathan, Tyler, Ryan, Andrew, Chris, and LJ.We now have to coolest looking landscaping on the block, and the all the neighbors are wearing neck braces for the turning their heads.

We had High Prairie install 2 massive structural retaining walls and a large patio and I couldn’t have asked for better results. The team was extremely professional from start to finish and answered all of my questions throughout the process in a timely manner. I made the mistake of hiring a different company about a year ago but they failed to even start my job and kept delaying the start date to almost a year out from originally planned then wouldn’t give me my money back (we eventually got it). I then chose High Prairie because I wanted professionals and that’s exactly what I got. I can honestly say that working with High Prairie was one of the best customer experiences I’ve ever had. Keep up the phenomenal work!

We had drainage, grading, and landscaping done at our house. The designer was great to work with. We did at least two major versions, with numerous revisions before we reached the final plan. He was always excited to hear our ideas and eager to make the changes we wanted.It took them a few days longer than they estimated to complete the work, but that was fine because they took their time and did it correctly, instead of rushing to get it done in an arbitrary number of days.They were extremely professional, easy to communicate with, and eager to answer our questions and listen to our concerns. They worked hard and had the equipment to do the job correctly.The finished landscaping already looks great even though it was planted in the fall when most of the plants were already dormant. It will look amazing next year when all the plants have leaves. We have had a number of positive comments from our neighbors already.I would highly recommend them if you have any drainage, grading, or landscaping that you want done correctly.

I have been gardening for over 25 years. High Prairie does excellent work. Robyn Schmitz, owner, is a fabulous designer with fresh, exciting and creative skills, coupled with a mastery of the horticultural aspects of all the plants, shrubs and trees. We have used Robyn and her knowledgeable people several times and will continue to do so. To find the talent that High Prairie brings to a project is rare. I have and continue to recommend High Prairie to other individuals & businesses, including HOA’s.

The brilliance of High Prairie Landscape Group is evident in their design, quality, attention to detail and professionalism in every project they complete. No matter the size of your landscape desires, or dream outdoor living space/patio, High Prairie Landscape Group will not only make it happen, but ensure that it surpasses your expectations.

High Prairie Landscape exceeded my expectations. I was a small project but always felt my project was their priority. Tyler custom designed my project working with my quirky ‘must haves’. Per my request he shopped and picked up a few accessories that I suspect most customers would want to choose themselves.The owner Robyn Schmitz and designer Tyler were excellent communicators and made sure I was satisfied with each step of the project. If you are looking for professional, personal, high quality landscaping, go to High Prairie Landscaping. You will not be disappointed!

We recently completed a landscape project with High Prairie Landscape Group. Tyler Banken was great to work with and very helpful in designing the project. The plantings he selected were nicely sized and in great shape. His whole crew was great. We’d highly recommend them and in fact have them contracted for the maintenance of our property.

I am quite pleased with the design and installation! The team led by Tyler did a great job with filling my “front of house” with attractive and low maintenance plants. The written descriptions of the plants had how to best maintain the was detailed and easy to follow. I would highly recommend High Prairie Landscape Group for advice, design and installation

They did an outstanding job of designing and installing a backyard shade garden. We asked for perennials, color, variety, and low maintenance and they came up with a beautiful design. The plants they installed were large and healthy and they have provided detailed watering and maintenance instructions. They are truly expert in their field and care about satisfying the customer.

I have worked with many lawn maintenance and landscaping companies and have always been disappointed in service, quality of work and customer relations until NOW. High Prairie is absolutely the best company I have ever worked with. The maintenance service contract was custom designed for my needs and easily adjustable. The landscaping design and workmanship from a new patio, trees, bushes, plants, flowers was over the TOP the best and fairly priced. When there is a storm, the guys come by and pick up the yard. The workmen are very professional. The owner Robyn is extremely knowledgeable, helpful and just a joy to work with. Hire them!
