Last 6 months: 3 reviews, 1 negative. ## The honest read GMK Property Services mows lawns, cleans up yards and plows driveways, and the company lists New Milford as its service area. It says it has been in business five years. A recent customer described it as owned and operated by Garret Knapp and wrote that other landscapers call GMK when snowstorms or nor'easters leave them behind. A recent customer met Cooper while walking a dog, booked a consultation with Garret, who walked the entire property, and said the clean-up and caretaking left a yard they are proud of. A 2024 customer said they called the morning of the first snowstorm of 2024 and he sent one of his guys over in 10 minutes to plow the driveway. A 2025 customer stuck in a driveway with snow and ice said Garrett came within an hour, removed the snow, broke up the ice, and salted and sanded. In a 2023 review, a customer said they interviewed Garret against a larger company for a pool restoration, found his quote the most realistic, and said Garret and his team worked through the summer, sometimes in the dark. A 2023 customer listed gravel driveway widening and leveling, forsythia removal, new beds and a yard expansion, then a fall cleanup. A recent customer, new to the area, said the mowing was mediocre, the weed whacking missed a lot of spots, the lawn was torn up when a worker got stuck, and mulching promised in May never happened. A 2025 customer said email about installing a French drain went fine and then the company stopped responding. **Strengths:** - Fast snow response — a 2024 customer said a plow came in 10 minutes - Ice clearing — a 2025 customer said Garrett salted and sanded the driveway - A pool restoration — a 2023 customer said the team worked sometimes in the dark **Concerns:** - Mowing and mulching — a recent customer cited missed spots and skipped mulching - Email follow-through — a 2025 customer said French drain emails went unanswered ## Claims & citations Every claim below is backed by real evidence rows — uncited claims are dropped in code before publication. - Lists New Milford as its service area _(confidence: medium)_ - [Official Website](http://gmkpropertyservices.com) — “Stated service area (self-reported): New Milford” - Says it has been in business five years _(confidence: medium)_ - [Official Website](http://gmkpropertyservices.com) — “Self-reported 5 years in business” - A recent customer described the company as owned and operated by Garret Knapp _(confidence: medium)_ - [Google Reviews](https://www.google.com/maps/reviews/data=!4m8!14m7!1m6!2m5!1sCi9DQUlRQUNvZENodHljRjlvT21kd2JXOVViVjlYVkROR1FsQktRbnAwUVZVMFVVRRAB!2m1!1s0x0:0xbe6ad0f66572374f!3m1!1s2@1:CAIQACodChtycF9oOmdwbW9UbV9XVDNGQlBKQnp0QVU0UUE%7C%7C?hl=en-US) — “5★ It isn’t hard finding companies who do a decent job performing basic groundskeeping services like mowing and plowing.
