Justin, I am so pleased by the way HPLG planted the Baby Blue. I was blown away by the teaching Parker gave the other two guys on planting correctly. Parker displayed such perfection and was detail oriented. He is a great one to have on the HPLG team!!

If you are planning or thinking of landscaping you owe it to yourself to call High Prairie Group. We have just completed our third project with them and each time the process is simple, not rushed, or high pressure. They have a professional and friendly expert team that take the time to listen and guide you. Our team, designer Katy Doll, field manager Aaron, and construction team John and Jay were fantastic.When we think of landscaping we think of High Prairie.

High Prairie Outdoors redesigned our patio last year and it looked great. Minor separation of a few pavers developed during this very dry summer. With just one call, High Prairie had an expert crew on-site to standby their warranty and reposition several pavers. The patio looks great again. All of our guests have asked, “Who did this work?” Answer – High Prairie!

High Prairie performed extensive landscaping and irrigation services for us. Our experience could not have been better. Everyone we dealt with was friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. Their results are beautiful and they have kept in touch to make sure everything is doing well. A wonderful company.

Our High Prairie landscape design is almost complete, and we’ve had three neighbors stop to compliment us on it. One even told us it belongs on a magazine cover. It takes the look of our house to the next level, because Katy did such a nice job making the design work with the architecture. From Katy to each worker involved in the installation, everyone has been easy and pleasant to work with.

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!
