Schellhaas Landscape Construction

I cannot say enough good things about the entire Schellhaas team! Mike, the owner, came out for the estimate and thoroughly explained a detailed plan with options for me for my complicated retaining wall. The crew was punctual, professional, and so kind. I always have extreme stress when trusting a company with a large investment but I could not be happier!

Mike and his crew did a fantastic job replacing my 20+ year old wooden retaining wall. I live in a townhouse with limited access to the backyard. So, the crew had to tear down the old wall by hand and haul away all the debris. They did an impressive amount of manual labor. Within two days, I had a new wall installed and river rock put down along the back of the house. Mike even removed a section of old mulch and replaced it with grass seed. He quickly responded to my initial inquiry and with the weather being in the upper 40s/low 50s in the beginning of January, he was able to get the job done a lot sooner than I had anticipated. Mike and his crew were friendly and professional and didn't mind me asking some questions during the construction process. I would definitely recommend them for any landscaping needs.

We couldn’t be happier with how our backyard and patio project turned out. Mike and his team were complete professionals and awesome to work with. From start to finish, I could always get in touch with mike. His communication was tremendous throughout the entire process. We would definitely recommend him to anyone.

Schellhaas Landscape Construction did a fantastic job with our project. We hired them to redo our whole backyard including a patio, retaining wall, and landscaping. From the first contact they were great to work with. The owner is extremely responsive, willing to talk through designs, and very helpful. Additionally the crew was friendly, professional, and got the job done. We are thrilled with the result of our project and our choice to use Schellhaas. I would highly recommend them to anyone searching for the right company for their project.

Mike was extremely professional and receptive to all that my husband and I sought for our backyard project. His crew workers were exceptional and wonderful to work with; consistent and vigilant. We had two separate projects completed in an incredibly short amount of time and the quality was impeccable. Highly recommend Schellhaas Landscape Construction for any of your needs or desires. We will most definitely use them in the future for any additional work!

We hired Shellhaas Landscaping to complete a major retaining wall, front entrance, and driveway project in early 2021. From beginning to end Mike and his crew were the ultimate professionals and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. During the initial walk-down, Mike took his time, asked questions, and took meticulous measurements to submit an accurate proposal which was right in line with the other bids we received. In addition to his attention to detail during bidding, their some-what unexpected immediate available solidified the decision to award the work to Schellhaas. During construction we had the same crew leader and nearly all the same workers throughout the duration of the work. The crew arrived consistently on time and cleaned up at the conclusion of each work day. Work was completed on time and within the budget quoted; a small change order we requested was the only deviation from the original quote. As far as quality, not enough can be said. The materials chosen (actually recommended by Schellhaas) and the quality of installation are impeccable and we consistently get compliments from our neighbors. Our only regret is that Schellhaas only does hardscapes as we would gladly hire them for other projects! Their attention to detail and customer service should serve as a model to all contractors!

Mike and his crew just completed a retaining wall in our backyard for us. His quote was very reasonable for the project and his communication was very good. The wall turned out great. His crew was very professional. The job was completed exactly according to his quote.

I hired Schellhaas to replace my sagging driveway retaining wall in 2021. I chose to give Schellhaas five stars for several reasons. They do great work, and his crew takes their craft very seriously. It was very reassuring for a work crew to show up and not be composed of rotating day laborers with minimal experience. The installers are very knowledgeable and take the time to do the job correctly and don't mind taking time to explain what they are doing (if asked). Also, Mike, the owner, is very responsive and keeps communication open. He returns phone calls, e-mails, or texts in a very timely manner which is tough to find in a contractor. He also bids jobs appropriately. Too often contractors underbid a project just to hit you with expensive change orders at the end. This did not happen. Any issues that occurred during the project were very clearly discussed, and options provided. They are my first call for all projects going forward.

Built me a 490 sq foot paver patio, rebuilt retaining walls, built a 10 foot tall stone fireplace. Quality was great, people awesome. Stayed until it was all done and done right. Showcased to family and friends. Highly recommend!

Mike came out to install a timber frame style covered porch for us. Mike and his guys showed up every day until the project was completed. Their attention to detail took away the anxiety of worrying about the project being done right. We would highly recommend Mike and his team for any landscape construction project in the Pittsburgh area.

Schellhaas Landscape Construction did a great job for us in 2019 on an Ohio stone retaining wall, so when we wanted to add outdoor living space to our backyard, we gave Mike a call. He more than lived up to our expectations. This time, we gave him some pictures, talked about our ideas, and let him go to town. SLC built us a paver patio, a beautiful, massive grill island with a granite countertop, and a natural gas fireplace. Mike and his crew are professionals in every sense. In addition to being highly skilled, they are friendly, respectful, and responsive. Mike is easy to work with. He listens to ideas, researches answers to questions, and doesn't hesitate to consult with other professionals. He made our decisions about colors, textures, and materials easy because he has a great eye for envisioning how everything coordinates in the end. Overall, we think Schellhaas Landscape Construction provides outstanding results at a reasonable, competitive price.

Mike did a timber framed pavilion and cement patio for me. It looks fantastic. The quality of Mike’s work is top of the line. His quote for the job was exact and he followed throughout the job. His communication with me was exceptional. He did what he said he was going to do and when he was going to do it. If he had to change a time, he would always let me know. He is honest and trustworthy. His crew was hardworking and very nice. I am using Mike again for my driveway.

Schellhaas Landscape Construction completed an addition to our existing patio to accommodate a fire pit bowl. Mike and his crew were professional,, knowledgeable, detail oriented, considerate, and personable from the beginning to the end of the project. Mike provided a detailed bid, assisted with the patio design, helped me choose pavers, and was always available to answer questions. The quality of the work was outstanding and everything was done to perfection. We are so happy with the new patio. I would definitely recommend Schellhaas Landscaping and hope to work with Mike and his team again in the future!

I hired Schellhaas Landscape Construction to remove and replace 2 retaining walls on our driveway, remove and relocate steps and sidewalk from the driveway to the house. All I can say is WOW in fact Double WOW. Michael and his employees are and were Professionals from the beginning to the end. If anyone needs work done call Schellhaas Landscape Construction. You will not be sorry.

We chose Schellhaas because of Mike's (the owner) professionalism, vision for the wall, and price. Mike was also the only one to follow up with us after giving the initial estimate. His team was respectful, always on time, and hard working. We had a couple concerns during the process, but Mike and his team were always willing to work with us. If you're in the market for a new retaining wall, I would highly recommend giving Mike a call!

Mike and his team installed a beautiful stamped concrete patio and sittng wall at our new home. Mike's pricing was competitive, and his staff were punctual, professional and highly skilled. Their equipment is all new and well-maintained, and they kept the jobsite neat and clean thoroughout the entire project. We hope to use them again!

Mike and his team did a great job on my backyard. They were very easy to work with, professional, and very communicative throughout the entire process. Mike helped me with the design aspect and kept the project within my budget. Highly recommend.

Reasonable rates for new retaining wall. I was please with the work done and it was completed within the designated time frame. Employees were friendly, punctual, respectful and always cleaned up daily. Would definitely recommend!

From day 1 of receiving a quote to the final day of installation, Mike has been the best contractor we have worked with to date! He truly cares about your project as if it is his own house he is working at! We had a patio installed with steps that lead down to the driveway and it turned out amazing! Him and his crew arrived every single day on time, worked in the rain and even some snow flurries (in May!). He took us through step by step of the process and helped us with choosing material. They cleaned up great at the end of each day and Tommy was so sweet with our 5 year old curious son. They are reliable and trustworthy and I wouldnt of chosen anyone else! His quote came back fair in price and extremely pleasant to work with! Do yourself a favor and hire Mike and his team for your next project! You wont regret it!

Schellhaas replaced our concrete driveway. It looks great. Easy to work with and friendly guys. Would definitely recommend. We are very pleased.

Mike thanks to you and company I have a beautiful wall and porch. Thanks Pat Price 111 Oxbridge Dr Pittsburgh, Pa 15237

Mike and his team transformed our small, unusable "back yard" into our personal paradise. We initially talked to him at the Pittsburgh Home Show and called him to come out and provide a quote for the construction of a retaining wall and back patio. The project expanded to include wide stone steps from the back door, installation of a 14 x 16 pergola with canopy, and an outdoor fireplace on one end of the patio, as well as landscaping around the fireplace. Mike worked with us at every step to choose materials, understand options, and provide a fair cost for the exceptional work that was provided. He was here every day with his team, and kept us up to date on their progress and estimated date for completion. We're thrilled with how the patio project turned out, and would absolutely recommend Mike and his team!

What a great job Mike did on my yard. They were efficient and very clean. Left the construction site in perfect condition for grass regrowth. Will definitely recommend and use them again. Mike was a pleasure working with you.

Mike is wonderful to work with! He was extremely patient with us as we finalized our design and stayed in constant contact through the entire process. We'll being going back to Schellhaas again in the future!

I hired Mike to build a retaining wall and pour my concrete pool deck. All work was completed to my standards on time and on budget. Excellent guys to work with. I look forward to stage two!

Mike and his team replaced a couple of cracked concrete steps and 5 wooden steps in the front of our house. Everything was done well in a timely fashion and the team of guys he had working with him were all very proffesional. I always recommend Schellhaas Landscape Construction if you need some outdoor work done!

It was an absolute pleasure to work with Schellhaas Landscape and Construction on our recent back patio project! From the onset I was very impressed with Mike’s attention to detail and responsiveness to my questions via email. He gave us a great quote on the price and he and his crew were efficient, thorough and thoughtful of our time and investment. We were extremely impressed with their design and craftsmanship with our stamped concrete patio and the result exceeded expectations. It would be a pleasure to work with them on future projects we have, highly recommended!

Mike did an amazing job on our retaining walls! He was the utmost professional throughout the entire two week job. Mike was very knowledgeable about the process, stuck to his estimate and delivered a beautiful finished product. Mike and his crew were very punctual and professional. They cleaned up the work site every day! I am so happy with the work they provided, I would recommend Schellhaas LC to anyone!

Hired for a complete overhaul of our front. Mike and his crew did aggregate concrete steps, patio, and wall as well as landscaping. We had a blank slate and Mike was able to create something very unique and amazing! I highly recommend for any job.

Professionals...showed up when they said they would. Had them tear out my driveway and replace it. They cleaned up every pebble of the old driveway and left no trace of them being there. They were perfectionists and had an great attention to detail. Definitely artists at their craft. Would and have recommend! Thanks Mike!

We are reviewing Schellhaas Landscaping as a colleague. We have done business with them many times and each time we are pleased that they are so great to work with and with the beautiful results.

Mike Schellhaas and his men put in new front steps for us this past summer. They were all gentlemen,professional, and are craftsmen. The job was completed successfully on time and the cost was both fair and reasonable. I would highly recommend Mike for your concrete and construction projects.
