Guru Lawn & Landscape

Building an empire one client at a time
Kip Dieckhaus, owner and president of Guru Lawn & Landscape, would hardly classify his business as an empire, but looking back at his humble beginnings, he derives great personal satisfaction from realizing just how far he has come. Kip began his company in 1996 with nothing more than a single lawn mower balanced precariously on the back end of his rebuilt 1985 Chevrolet Caprice. In nine years, he has grown into one of Missoula’s finest full-service landscaping companies with a fleet of four trucks, two trailers, six professional mowers (including two 48-inch Bobcats) and all of the equipment necessary to produce stunning commercial and residential landscapes. Kip prides himself on the rapport he establishes with his clients, firmly believing, “If you take care of the client, the client will take care of you.” Often tagged with the epithet “The Perfectionist”, he admits to staying late into the evening on many occasions to ensure complete satisfaction of his clients. This dedication to customer service has made Guru Lawn & Landscape one of the top landscapers in western Montana.
