Dresen Landscaping was founded in 1996 by owner Mike Dresen. Mike had many years of experience in the landscaping industry working for other contractors before deciding to start his own business. In 2009 we moved to our current location in the Caledonia Business Park. Since our founding, we've earned a reputation for quality craftsmanship and creative, innovative landscaping solutions.
Contact us to begin your landscaping project. Our initial consultation is free of charge. We take the time to meet with you on-site to discuss your ideas, likes/dislikes and wish list for your landscape. We will also talk about budgets, fees, timing and any other issues important to the project. Following the meeting, we will begin to assemble a proposal to help you achieve your landscaping goals. A good design is the foundation to a successful landscape project. View our Plans & Designs gallery to view the professional quality of our designs.
We use quality materials and follow proper installation techniques to build our retaining walls. Site conditions and the type of material to be used are considered when installing each wall project. Retaining walls should be maintenance free and have a long life span; to do so, we build them to the manufacturers' specifications making sure you will get decades of satisfaction.
Using paver bricks or natural stone, the addition of a new patio or walkway will improve the overall function of your yard, increase your curb appeal and add value to your property. We use high quality materials installed by experienced professionals for your patio or walkway project. All photos in our galleries are authentic and display original work performed exclusively by Dresen Landscaping LLC.

We had a pond in our backyard. Even had Ducks hanging out back there. Our poor dog was confined to one area. Mike came by and knew exactly what needed to be done! And a few weeks later the drain tile was in. The crew was professional and polite. Answered all our questions and addressed any concerns. Would highly recommend. Thanks for giving us our yard back! Looking forward to playing frisbee with the dog again.

This company is busy for a reason, they know what they are doing. Had a block retaining wall falling over that another contractor installed incorrectly. Dresen completely rebuilt the wall with the base installed correctly and proper drainage. I felt confident working with Dresen and am happy with my new wall.

Over the past 4 years, Mike and his crew have been helping me extensively with a large scale ongoing landscape project on 7 acres. From hauling in gravel, boulders, topsoil, mulch and trees, to grading, solving drainage problems, tree and brush removal, hydroseeding, tree and shrub installation, to building a massive retaining wall. Mike's team is always reliable, flexible, and professional.
I have gotten excellent results at a great value time and time again with Dresen. I highly recommend hiring Dresen landscaping LLC for all of your landscaping needs. Thanks again for the great service Mike! Sincerely, John Ehlers Franksville, WI

A few years ago I had Dresen do all of my landscaping and had a positive outcome. Recently however, I had the most unprofessional interaction with them that I could hardly believe. I needed some patio paver repair, Matt came out to look at the job and told me he would get back quickly with an estimate. Instead of an estimate, I was told, "Some existing customers are starting to get restless and our crews are going to be starting on some large projects soon.
I'm sorry we're not able to help with your work." In other words, just because you were an excellent PAST customer, we don't have time for you now. REALLY! There are other more professional landscaping companies in the area.

Well done! Had drainage issues on a property that affected several homes which have now been resolved by Dresen Landscaping, LLC and their customer service to the properties regarding follow up on the grass repairs after the job was done was impressive. I would absolutely recommend this company to others!
