Services
Terra Firma Landscape was originally founded in 1993 by Dave and Heather Schuster and has been located on the corner of Tess Corners road and Janesville road in Muskego since 1995. The company name is Latin for "firm earth" or "solid earth". Dave having a background in engineering wanted to put his creative ideas into a reality and led the company to focus on landscape design/build services for outdoor spaces. The company has thrived over the years and most of the employees have worked at the firm for over 10 years!
Our mission is to provide our employees with an honest, safe, and helpful working environment, where every employee individually and collectively, can dedicate themselves to providing our customers with exceptional workmanship, extraordinary service, and professional integrity. We will constantly evolve through education and innovative ideas to better our company and industry.
As part of our commitment to our employees, we also ensure an amazing workplace culture. To grow our team and foster a positive atmosphere, we take steps year-round to check in with our employees. In the busy summer season, we will even connect with our employees regularly. These weekly meetings ensure that everyone's voice is heard, build our team, and enable our company to grow.
As anyone planning their yard knows, landscaping isn't as simple as slapping down a few plants and some grass. Behind every successful landscaping project is careful planning and preparation, or, in other words, design. In the words of Steve Jobs, "design is not just what it looks like and feels like; design is how it works."

I know my neighbors are impressed with the work they have performed, but I have given them 2 separate chances to help with our landscaping. Originally, we asked them to help us with grading, seeding, irrigation and all the landscaping ($100k+ project). I would reach out to their sales team and no one responded until a month after my request. My wife decided to give them another shot bidding some additional work we needed, about $5-10k.

They came out to meet with my wife, but took a very long time to turn a quote around. To make matters worse the quote wasn't accurate to our discussion. If you're too busy to give quality proposals then stop wasting time. We will not ask you to bid on future projects and advise others to do the same.

Terra Firma is an excellent resource and provider for all our drainage/landscaping projects over the past 15 years. I would highly recommend Terra Firma for their expertise and professionalism. We have received numerous complements over the years for the work that they have completed.

We had our lawn aerated and over seeded. The team was very efficient and carefully avoided our marked sprinkler heads from the underground sprinkler system. Any dirt that may have gotten on the driveway or sidewalks were cleaned up. Our neighbor happened to see them working on our lawn and asked us for a referral for his lawn because he was so impressed with the care and quality of their work.

Fantastic job! Completed our large retaining walls shown in the pictures. Turned out gorgeous, and the stair design by Dave was fantastic.

I worked alongside Brett and his crew to remove a waterfall pump in Greenfield, Wi. This is a job of which they have never done before, but they were prepared, and well equipped to handle it. Highly recommended! Great job!

We met Terra Firma Landscape at the NARI homeshow and hired them for a design and build plant and hardscape project in our backyard. From start to finish, the Terra Firma team was great to work with. Excellent communication, design expertise, plant selection, advice and competitive pricing really made it a positive experience. Bret gave us great insight on best care for our new plants and recommended other opportunities which we will consider for future projects. Brandon, Bret, and their crew created the backyard oasis we were so excited for. Thank you Terra Firma!

We hired Terra-Firma Landscape for a complete removal and re-install of a patio. They did a wonderful job and expanded our living space utilizing more of our yard maximizing the entertaining area. Drainage was also a focus so we can rest easy knowing water will not be an issue. We were so impressed with the work performed that we hired Terra-Firma to perform work at my parents residence. Again, A++ job. We look forward to having more work done in the future.

My husband and I were thrilled to have Terra-Firma design and install our hardscaping in our yard. The results were even more beautiful than we expected. Bret, Chad and their crew were terrific. Our friends and family's first impression of the end result was "WOW." Their work created a beautiful space for reflection, relaxation and rejuvenation for us.

Brett and his crew did a great job on my regrading and patio project. My new patio is pitched very well and looks great. His pricing was competitive compared to another bid I got. They took care to clean up the job site nicely when they were finished. I would strongly recommend him to others.
