“I wanted a unique Brooklyn backyard that was striking and pleasing. Something that maximized its size, shape, sun and shade. I believe that was accomplished to the max. FireDean was always up front with time and cost. He provided a blueprint and photoshop picture of the finished garden and an itemized list of all plants, material and labor costs. Any changes were agreed upon beforehand. The stonework took a little longer than expected because of his attention to detail. Our back and forth communication was always prompt and complete. I trust FireDean to always do excellent work. He prides himself on his finished product and pleasing his customer. He did both in my case. I know I'll have years of pleasure with my backyard.

“Bryan Quinn of One Nature advised me on the planning and design of a wetland improvement project funded through the Natural Resources Conservation Service involving development of two ponds and restoration of native habitats within the surrounding areas comprising about 15 acres.. After evaluating site conditions and laying out an overall conceptual plan for habitat zones, nature trails and observation points, he prepared a detailed plan and specs for planting groves of trees, site maintenance and circulation for areas immediately surrounding the ponds as well as supervision of site work. The work went quickly, on schedule and Mr. Quinn was very professional, generous with time and paid attention to detail, and within budget.”

“LDAW remodeled my pool and plantings for the landscape around the pool. They also designed the plantings for the front of my home. This is an extremely professional organization and I would use them again. Estimates are done by the owner and his drawings will explain exactly what to anticipate. The laborers are on time, reliable and take a lot of pride in their work. The owner is available and will return calls if need be. I cannot see how things could have gone better for both of these large projects for my home.”

“Spring Lake Garden Design is both professional and talented. Catharine and Ian are easy to work with and have been helpful both on my personal projects as well as those for my clients. I would recommend them without reservation.”

“My wife and I initially hired Takumi Design to design and build our in-ground swimming pool and surrounding garden, stone patio in the backyard. One of the best things about Takumi is that they handled all aspects of the project from start to finish, so we did not have to hire and coordinate with several different firms to complete the project. Takumi handled the architecture and gardening designs, assisted with the town's approval/permit process, excavated and built the pool and the hot tub, and did all of the surrounding stone and tile work. They took care of the piping for the plumbing and electrical, including our last minute changes like adding a generator, and adding a stairwell. They also designed and built our granite grilling area and later, our fire pit area. They handled the entire horticultural project from making recommendations about what flowers, plants and trees to use, to designing the beds, purchasing the plants and installing everything. It looks so beautiful, that every year my family cannot wait until spring time for the all season-long floral displays to begin. We were so pleased with Takumi's work that we have since hired them to do smaller projects for us, like redoing the front walkway with flagstone, and designing and installing a lima-bean shaped flower bed in the front of the house. They are extremely hands-on and very easy to work with. My wife and I highly recommend them.”

“Great work excellent service he did a wonderful clean quick job for a decent price and best of all he was always here on top of his workers”

“Bloom was fantastic. They worked with my budget, saw the problems and gave me solutions including teaching me about my own property. Great folks and I can't wait to hire them again for additional landscaping projects!”

“The plants I bought there are always healthy and the price is reasonable. I always go back there every year.”

“Elizabeth at Pierce Hill was a dream to work with. She was on time and on budget, which was very refreshing. She designed balcony plantings for us and it was magnificent. Her work incorporated height, texture and color and is a real show stopper. Her advice and direction were very much on target. Our friends and family have all commented on how stunning the balcony looks.”

“I love Karen's work! She designed a beautiful backyard patio and outdoor space for my house in 2007 and we continue to enjoy it every season. Karen combined blue stone with brick pavers to create a unique design for the patio that included garden spaces for both flowers and vegetables. She also took the need for shade into account and made space for two beautiful cherry trees. A week after the work was done (on time and at cost), we hosted a backyard wedding for a family member-it was a wonderful day which included many compliments about our beautiful backyard. I highly recommend Karen Arent Landscape Architects!”
