Happy Holidays from our family to yours

Thank You to our Families

Happy Thanksgiving 2013, today brings to a close a new Integrity Landscape Services tradition: 7 days of Thanks.

On our final count-down to Turkey Day, we focus on the last of the 7 of the countless reasons for us to give thanks.

7 Days of Thanks Reason 1 – Thankful For Our Family

 

Family is a gift we are all blessed with; while many of us enjoy the traditional, two-parent family life, others of us are blessed with other kinds of family--the spirit of family comes from our churches, our friends, our business partners, and our neighbors.

We hope on this day of thanks that you remember to feel gratitude for the many different kinds of family that enhance our daily lives.

While it seems so far away, spring 2014 will be here before you know it. Feel free to call us anytime this winter to discuss creative possibilities for your home and property. You will have chosen the right team for the job.

Thank You for Choosing Integrity

As we count down to Thanksgiving 2013, we continue a new Integrity Landscape Services tradition: 7 days of Thanks.

As Turkey Day nears, we focus on 7 of the countless reasons for us to give thanks.

7 Days of Thanks Reason 2 – Thankful For Our Freedoms

We take for granted the many freedoms this great nation offers us. Our fearless leader started this business out of the back of his car, many years ago, and now he's an American success story. We are thankful for the freedom to pursue this dream.

We're thankful for the gifts of opportunity each day brings us--and our ability to choose to pursue those opportunities or not. We understand you have the freedom to choose from many landscaping options; that's why we work as hard as we do to earn your trust and keep your business. Because freedom isn't free.

While it seems so far away, spring 2014 will be here before you know it. Feel free to call us anytime this winter to discuss creative possibilities for your home and property. You will have chosen the right team for the job.

Fall Landscaping Tips

Summer waves farewell with a last, few warm days as it fades to memory, and now we greet autumn as it arrives. Here are some fall landscaping tips for your home from the experts at Integrity Landscaping:

• Shrub & Tree Planting – Fall is the perfect time to plant and encourage good root development. Fall planting helps the plants establish themselves before spring.
• Trim those yew bushes. Now is the perfect time to shape and trim those yew bushes that grew wild during July and August.
• Lawn Problems? Now is a right time to sod or spot-seed barren or damaged areas.
• Lawn maintenance is vital in September. It is the correct time for aeration and fertilization. 
• Grub problems? Fall is the right time to take control of the situation long term.
• Weed until a freeze. Failing to continue weeding will cause your weeds to spread and could make next season even worse.
• No pruning for spring shrubs. Azaleas, Rhododendrons, and other flowering, spring shrubs have already set their buds for the following year; pruning them now will sacrifice next year’s spring flowers.
• If you want to add a lovely autumn look to your exterior, plant your hardy mums now.

Remember, Integrity Landscape stands ready to transform you home to a wonderful, year-round paradise. We can then even maintain your look seasonally, if you wish. Call today for a free consultation.

End of Summer

Happy Labor Day! We at Integrity Landscape Services hope you enjoyed this last traditional weekend of summer. We’d like to take a moment to thank and salute the hardworking, experienced, dependable, and talented team of workers at Integrity Landscape Services. Most of them have been with us for many years now. Unlike some fly-by-night operations that hire for the week, we train and retain our skilled workers. That’s why Integrity Landscape Services has been awarded the prestigious Super Service Award from Angie’s List for 3 straight years.

Our workers are skilled, efficient, and amazingly productive! We regularly finish jobs in less time than clients expect. Our workers are friendly, respectful, and focus on keeping your site clean while they work. They do the job right the first time. This Labor Day we say thanks to our remarkable team at Integrity Landscape Services!

"The crew at Integrity Landscape Services could not have been more professional in their approach to our project. The crew showed up bright and early and literally worked at a fever pitch to complete our project within one day. Our front yard now looks like a park." -- Stacy C.

Bring a Pond to Your Property

Want to make your backyard a relaxing, natural oasis? One of the most beautiful and natural water features you can add to your home is an ecosystem pond. An ecosystem pond is a water garden that functions together with its surrounding environment; where you work with Mother Nature, not against her.

Ponds are one of the most important ecosystems on the planet. They play host to a total interrelationship of all organisms in the environment such as birds, fish, frogs, plants, and many microscopic organisms. So ponds not only create a natural ecosystem in their defined environment, but they also fit into the community or life cycle of the entire ecological region. So you are helping your neighborhood as well.



Integrity's experience installing eco-ponds--or any ponds--ensures your pond serves both you and your community as a point of beauty and relaxation.

Football Season and Firepits

In less than two weeks we are past Labor Day and into September. The days will get shorter and the nights cooler. In addition to enjoying the Packer season, why not enjoy your backyard patio more completely with a fire pit? It is a wonderful upgrade for outdoor enjoyment, year round!

Here are six reasons to for you to turn to Integrity Landscape for a permanent fire pit upgrade.

1. Family and friends gathering. Nothing says gather your favorite friends and family together like a fire pit.
2. Improved use of your outdoor space. Fire pits are a great way to extend your party space to the outdoors.
3. Added option for food preparation. There is no more enjoyable and unique taste than kabobs or marshmallows cooked over a fire pit.
4. Heat and warmth to extend outdoor recreational use. It is enjoyable to gather and drink around a fire pit on a chilly autumn or early spring night.
5. Tranquil ambiance for quiet time. When you and your loved ones are spending quiet time together, nothing is more satisfying than cuddling by a fire and gazing at the stars.
6. Increased value to your home. Landscaping upgrades including a permanent brick fire pit add investment value and selling price to your home.

Call Integrity Landscape Services today for a free consultation about adding a permanent fire pit to your residence.

August Landscaping Tips

Amazing that a couple of drier weeks and your lawn, garden, and landscaped areas are sere. Water and weed your garden and lawn in August. Pull weeds immediately after a good, soaking rain. Did you notice the new weeds sprouting up the past week or so? Some varieties wait until August to return. There will be weeds after the rain.

Three Tips:

1. Water thoroughly and deeply when you water. 
2. Water in the morning or early afternoon to allow the soil to warm up before evening.
3. Improve the look and health of your garden by removing spent flowers and any dry, crinkly leaves from your perennials and annuals.

By removing spent flowers, the plants will not go into the seed-producing stage and may flower longer. Removing bad foliage can stop the spread of fungus and insects.

Spring-blooming perennials can be divided and transplanted this month and next. Keep fertilizing the annuals in your pots and hanging baskets. Frequent watering leaches the nutrients from the soil, so keep an eye out for insects or disease damage and control if necessary.

For a more formal, manicured look, summer-blooming shrubs can be given a light shearing after they finish flowering. Cut out dead, broken, and rubbing branches from your shrubs and small trees whenever you have your pruners out.

This is the month to improve your lawn. Never spray weed killer on a drought-stressed lawn. It only takes a couple dry weeks for your lawn to become stressed. It is best to kill weeds before they go to seed and become a problem for years to come. Later this month you can fertilize the lawn again and over-seed the thin spots. Do not fertilize a lawn that is drought-stressed or when temperatures exceed 90-degrees. Luckily, our mild summer temperatures make it ideal to fertilize this year. If you over-seed an area, make sure to consider the amount of sunlight, traffic, and salt the area will be exposed to. Choose the seed blend best suited to your conditions. Continue watering: grass needs 1" of water every week. If the temperature stays warm keep your mower set at 3" or higher.

Change the water in your bird bath regularly and keep it filled. Stagnant water may become a breeding ground for mosquitoes. Remember mosquitoes, they could make a comeback after the recent rains. The best defense against flying insects on the deck and patio, is a strategically placed fan. For your ponds or water features, make sure they always have adequate water levels. They lose more moisture to evaporation and splashing than you might believe.

Enjoy the rest of the summer; spend some time enjoying your garden!

Time for Summer Flowers

What is more beautiful than your lovely landscaped home with all the flowers, shrubs, and trees in glorious bloom? This is the season to enjoy the fruits of those labors; the creative team at Integrity can custom design a remarkable visual awakening of your property so next summer produces a yard design that's the envy of the neighborhood.

Integrity Landscape stands ready to work with you to dramatically improve your outdoor look and feel. Call today for a free consultation.

Landscaping in July

Turn all this near-record rainfall into a plus: The wet ground makes pulling weeds an easy chore.

Cut your grass a little taller during the hot weather if your lawn is made up of Fescue, Bluegrass, or Ryegrass. These cool-season grasses will fight the effects of heat better if you cut them no lower than 3 inches during the hottest summer months. Low cutting puts too much stress on the grass during hot weather. Be sure to water deeply and frequently if there has been no rain for 4 or more straight days.

 

Avoid pruning shrubs and trees in July. Always trim in early spring or late autumn. Trimming done in cooler weather can actually kill the plant, shrub, or tree when done in the heat of July. Wait to shape up your shrubs and trees until this fall.

Do not seed grass in July, except for Bermuda, which will take with enough watering. Integrity Landscape stands ready to work with your to dramatically improve your outdoor look and feel.  Call today for a free consultation.

Cooking Al Fresco?

July 2nd and summer is in full bloom. What could make your summer--and future summers--far more enjoyable? How about an upgrade to a new patio featuring an outdoor kitchen. Why heat up your indoor kitchen and make your AC work harder? An outdoor cooking setup with grill, fridge, sink/wet bar, smoker, and other useful stations make dining and entertaining in your back yard an enjoyable endeavor. Call Integrity Landscape for a free consultation today.

Summer Heat Invites a Space to Chill

Summer heat has arrived. This warm weather makes the perfect time to enjoy your patio and spend pleasurable days and nights with family and friends. Thousands of your neighbors in Southeastern Wisconsin have turned to Integrity Landscape to transform an average yard into a magical sanctuary. Here are a few of their thoughts on the upgrade:

"Happy with the new deck/patio and lights. Our party was a good time and it was great that Integrity completed the job before the party. New patio by the lake looks good and numerous kids have been playing on the beach." -- Ron S., Muskego, WI

"My goal was to turn my small back yard into a beautifully landscaped sanctuary that I can also share with my family and friends. I now have exactly that. I love it! Everyone who has seen it loves it! My experience with Integrity from start to finish is one of the best I have ever had with a contractor. I would highly recommend them to others and would use them again." -- Randy H., Milwaukee, WI

A Fire Pit to Warm a Cool Spring

What better way to extend your enjoyment of your back yard than with an open-air fire pit? This damp, chilly June has highlighted the value a warm, toasty fire under the stars can bring as a comfortable way to enjoy the fresh air and the stars.

Six reasons to for you to turn to Integrity Landscape for a permanent fire pit upgrade.

1. Family and Friends. Nothing says gather your favorite friends and family together like a fire pit.
2. Outdoor Space Use. Fire pits are a great way to extend your party space to the outdoors.
3. Food Preparation. There is nothing more distinctive than kabobs or marshmallows cooked over a fire pit.
4. Warmth and Gentle Light. It is enjoyable to gather and socialize around a fire pit on a chilly spring night.
5. Tranquil Ambiance. When you and your loved ones are spending quiet time together, nothing is more satisfying than cuddling by a fire and gazing at the stars.
6. Increased Value. Landscaping upgrades, including a permanent, brick fire pit add investment value and selling price to your home.

Call Integrity Landscape Services today for a free consultation about adding a permanent fire pit to your residence.

Decorative Retaining Walls

A decorative, tiered retaining wall is an amazing landscape improvement. The levels deliver multiple planting, lighting, and design options, and deliver a rich, elegant ambiance year round.

Decorative retaining walls truly enhance your landscape. Decorative retaining walls include sitting walls, tier walls, and garden walls. Sitting walls are free-standing walls that enclose an outdoor living space. Tier walls can be structural or decorative depending on the design and implementation. Our team installs tier walls to create depth in landscape beds by stair-stepping the retaining wall as it ascends. Garden walls are small walls installed in garden or landscape bed areas. These walls are not designed to retain much back pressure.

Consider your options and learn more about decorative retaining walls from the pros at Integrity.

#AtoZChallenge – Z is for Zen Water Garden

Integrity Landscape excels at transforming your functional back yard into a tranquil, private retreat—your own Zen Water Garden. A serene place where you can relax, unwind, reflect, and recharge your drained battery. Call today for a free consultation.

#AtoZChallenge – Y is for Your Before and After

There are few joys more fulfilling for a homeowner than to revel in the amazing transformation of your property by the Landscape experts at Integrity Landscape solutions. Our many clients tell us that they knew it would be an improvement, but to experience Your Before and After is truly breathtaking. Here are a few of the hundreds of reactions we've received from people viewing their Before and After:

Everyone who has seen it loves it! My experience with Integrity from start to finish is one of the best I have ever had with a contractor. I would highly recommend them to others and would use them again." -- Randy H., Milwaukee, WI

#AtoZChallenge – X is for Xeriscape

If you're interested in keeping your watering bills low, talk to us about xeriscaping. The word is a portmanteau of the Greek word for dry and landscaping, and refers to landscape designs that minimize water use. Because the water department of Denver, Colorado has registered the trademark on that particular word, you can also call this specialized form of garden development water-conserving landscapes, drought-tolerant landscaping, or smart-scaping.

Typically, we encourage planting whose natural requirements are appropriate to the local climate anyway, as well as working to properly manage water flow; those are key components to making sure your property remains low-maintenance and low-cost over the long term.

Key advantages include:

• lower consumption of water, whether from the ground or the hose;
• more water available for the community;
• less time and work for maintenance (i.e. no lawns to mow);
• full advantage taken of rainfall retention in appropriate planting design, soil grading, and mulching;
• more likelihood that your landscaping will survive when water restrictions are implemented during droughts;
• can be more visually interesting than lawns.

Consider your options and ask Integrity to help you come up with a landscaping design that takes full advantage of Wisconsin's weather and temperature, while minimizing the ongoing maintenance thereafter.

#AtoZChallenge – Water Features

A backyard water feature serves as a beautiful, natural place to escape from the pressures of the world. Your water garden is your backyard haven. It’s a place where you can regroup your thoughts, relax, and grow in a way that makes all the rest of life more tolerable, meaningful, and enjoyable. No wonder water features have become an increasingly popular trend in landscaping. It’s our personal world of natural streams, ponds, waterfalls, and wildlife. It’s the calm place in the center of your hectic world.

Water features are surprisingly efficient. Along with being a popular way to reconnect with nature, you can transform high-maintenance expanses of lawn into beautiful, low-maintenance water features.

Water features are environmentally friendly and can be installed anywhere, similar to traditional landscaping. They are completely customizable to meet your unique desires. In addition, water features–like other types of landscaping–mature with age, increasing the value of your home more than any other type of home improvement.

They also add landscaping variety: Water plants are truly the “emerald” jewels of the gardening world. Self-watering and hardy, these plants return year after year. You can even plant tropical lilies that bloom at night! The beauty and low maintenance of aquatic plants provide a truly unique accent to any water garden.

Find serene tranquility in your own back yard. Relax beside a water garden and experience a tranquility that transcends today’s stressful world. Recuperate from your hectic day by listening to the soothing sound of a waterfall. Join the many satisfied homeowners who readily profess that adding a water feature to their landscaping was the best investment they’ve ever made.

#AtoZChallenge -- V is for Versatility

Versatility means Integrity Landscape offers a variety of specialized services in Landscape Design, Draining Solutions, Grading, Brick Patio & Walks, Landscape Renovation, Retaining Walls, Water Features, and Landscape Lighting.

Whether your tastes are modest, extravagant, or anywhere in between, we have the versatility to deliver the results you desire for a reasonable cost.

It is also important to install all landscape features at the proper grade to prevent damaging water problems. We believe landscaping should be done right the first time. Call today for your free consultation!

#AtoZChallenge – U is for Unusual Features

They can add just the right touch to make your outdoor entertaining memorable. Integrity Landscape thrives on delivering unusual yet functional features.

Whether fire or water is your preference, we can make sure whatever unique installation feeds your fancy fits your budget and accentuates the positives at your property.

 
Call today for a free consultation.

#AtoZChallenge – T is for Tree Planting

Smile and say “TREES!” Trees are a vital landscaping component. When thriving, they make a beautiful contribution to the garden. Adding trees to your landscape, whether it is one specimen tree or a grouping of a certain variety, will greatly improve the appearance and value of your property. Trees can create shady spots perfect for a bench or table. They can block winds and add privacy. Depending on the variety, they can also add color and interest to your yard. Think about whether you want an evergreen, deciduous, or flowering tree.

Choosing the right tree is crucial. Integrity Landscape design experts will offer expert knowledge in tree choice and where to plant it. A major do-it-yourself landscaping mistake is improper tree placement. For example, a tree with surface roots can destroy paving, while a tree that grows taller than expected can interfere with power lines or block views.

Once your trees have been selected and planted they will need to be cared for properly. Providing the right amount of water is probably the most crucial maintenance concern when it comes to trees. Most trees require occasional deep watering, but familiarize yourself with your tree's specific needs. Other maintenance considerations include mulching, fertilizing, and pruning.

With each mature tree potentially adding thousands of dollars of value to your home, you can't afford to make an uneducated decision. The experts at Integrity Landscape can help you select the best trees for your property and growing conditions. They have experience with many tree types and will be able to tell you what will and won't work.

#AtoZChallenge – S is for Super Service Award

Angie’s List had become the best choice for impartial referrals. Their success is based on the legitimacy of their information and recommendations. They do not hand out awards frivolously. For the third straight year Integrity Landscape has been awarded the elite Super Service Award. With as many landscape companies in Southeast Wisconsin as there are, only 3 qualified for a Super Service Award.

We strive to deliver exceptional beauty and unique appeal for your landscape work. We are only satisfied if you are satisfied.

We like to let our work, and you the satisfied client, speak for our efforts. But if we must occasionally share our pride, this one's something special! Thank you for helping us win a Super Service Award from Angie’s List for 3 straight years.

#AtoZChallenge – R is for Retaining Walls

Retaining walls are constructed features designed to restrain soil to unnatural slopes. They situate soils between two different elevations, often in areas of terrain with undesirable slopes or in areas where the landscape needs to be shaped for design considerations. Our experienced designers & installers will engineer your wall system with superior construction, stability, durability, and strength.

Through the installation of a proper, compacted base we ensure the quality of the foundation of your new investment. In addition, by installing a proper drainage system behind all applicable walls, we can reduce the hydrostatic pressure and increase the longevity of your new retaining wall.

By offering quality materials such as Unilock, Keystone, Fieldstone, or Lannonstone, we will provide you with a variety of options to meet your budget so you can enjoy the beauty for years to come.

We offer a wide selection of Keystone products, such as Country Manor or Stonegate, in a variety of colors and the straight-face and sculptured-face units in either gray or light brown. Steps can be added for increased accessibility and decorative pillars can be added for an upscale appearance.

#AtoZChallenge – Q is for Quarry stone

Naturally rugged and beautiful quarry stone makes a visually appealing choice for your patio or walkway. Quarry stone has been used since ancient times and offers a ageless, rustic look.

With a wide variety of textures, colors, and sizes, quarry stone allows you to express your distinctive style by transforming the ordinary into the extraordinary.

Whether you're creating a free-standing wall with an elegant and charming appearance, holding back a large hill, or just want to kick back and relax around a fire on the patio, quarry stones blend perfectly with nature.

“Natural quarry stone has many innate attributes that make it a green building product: it is natural, low maintenance, and exceptionally durable,” – University of Tennessee Center for Clean Products.
