Meet Marcus Peters

I am the owner and founder of Lasting Impressions Landscape & Design. I have been in landscaping since I was 18, running my own company since 2017, and I am on the job site of every project we build.

From mowing crews to design and build

I started in landscaping at 18, cutting grass. Nine years of working up through other companies followed, running plant installation jobs as a foreman, then account management and business development, before I started Lasting Impressions in 2017.

The design side started earlier. I have drawn all my life and I use that on this work. The landscape is my palette. I started with plant layouts, then patios, then entire backyards. Today I design most projects as a 3D rendering of your own home before pricing is even final.

Why the company is called Lasting Impressions

The business was built on relationships. I meet you at the first call and I am still there at the final walkthrough. The name is what I hold the work to.

“Communication and craftsmanship is what I've built this business on.”

Marcus

I am a perfectionist about the build and honest about what that costs. It might take us a little longer than the competitors, but I promise you we're gonna put our blood, sweat and tears into everything that we do.

What clients say about working with Marcus

TTerry Miller
“I find Marcus Peters of Lasting Impressions Landscaping to be outgoing, sincere, and professional. Relying on his broad knowledge-based experience, Marcus always understands what I am envisioning for the finish product. He is punctual and is able to schedule projects within the time allotment that he promises you initially. I highly recommend Lasting Impressions Landscaping and I’m employing Marcus again for another project this summer!”
EEmily Martel
“If I could give 10 stars out of 5 I would. Marcus and his guy did amazing. I live out of town and hired them for my parents flower beds. I had very specific requests and within 24 hours he had already been by the house to give me a quote. I am very demanding. I gave him less than a week to get the job done and he delivered with a smile! And on a holiday weekend I might add. Communicates very well and quickly by text or phone! The whole thing from start to finish was a breeze. Would def recommend them to anyone and will FOR SURE be using them again. Enjoy the before and afters.”
JJustin Gutschmidt
“Marcus and his team at Lasting Impressions did a phenomenal job transforming our backyard. He listened intently to our ideas and created an amazing design that was shown to us before the project. His creativity and execution surpassed expectations! Marcus was reliable, highly communicative and on site daily to work with his crew on a water feature, stone pathway, multiple garden beds, plants, trees, and lighting. Everyone on his team were polite and hard working! Marcus went above and beyond with a sincere passion for perfection. We will definitely use Lasting Impressions in the future!!”

Why the crew stays small

The crew is small and it stays that way, because the person who quotes your job is the person who runs it. You meet the same faces every day, and the reviews mention the crew by name. Reviewers have written about the crew fist-bumping their kids and handling curious neighbors with patience.

Off the clock

I live near the yard in Mantua with my wife Monica and our three boys. I front a band, sing and play guitar, and when there is time off it goes to camping and hiking, Cuyahoga Valley close to home and the Allegheny National Forest when there is a long weekend to spend.
