Decking Design Professionals in Detroit, MI

“I have been a client of Great Lakes Landscape Design for over 20 years. Their work is outstanding as they pay an incredible amount of attention to detail. The staff is always courteous and respectful and they are a pleasure to work with. They have handled my lawn and spring/fall cleanups for me as well as created one brick porch and rebuilt two others.”

“A complete design & build landscape designer, focusing on exceeding customer expectations from the design period to the finshed product. Great care was taken with the exsisting landscape while the project was done within budget and on time.”

“I hired Great Oaks to design and install my landscape as soon as they renovated my neighbors property and it sold for 10% more then its asking price. They are so helpful and respectful. They took the time to educate me about what they were planning, installing, the process, and just about landscape architecture in general. I learned so much from them and they created a breathtaking outdoor living space which I use everyday. It made my house something I was proud to show off. I now have friends and family over because they turned my backyard into a entertaining living area which is simply beautiful and I can fit 3 times as many people as I used to be able too. I Never could have imagined a big landscaping company woud care so much about 1 individual homeowner but they really do. They still contact me to make sure it's still as perfect as the day it was installed.”

“We hired Daryl Toby and AguaFina to do our landscape architecture in preparation for a wedding we were having at our home. Their staff was friendly and knowledgable and were able to incorporate many of the ideas we were looking for. They also incorporate many of the native plants that we already had on site to cut down on costs. In addition, Daryl treated the project with a meticulous attention to detail and demanded excellence. This was a beautifully implemented project and led to a wonderful June wedding.”

“The team removed some older stone gardens, refurbished the brick work and matched new bricks to fill in the areas left. They then designed a fireplace and bar area within our budget and installed it. All work was done in 9 days. The staff and crew were excellent. They did a great cleanup every day even carefully replacing the fence so our dogs could use the yard each nite. When finished they reseeded and repaired damaged grass areas. We couldn't recommend them more and will look to them for future projects.”

“Steven and Thoms Bros. was intuitive, functional, prepared with great layouts, and ready to serve! We enjoyed all the help in design and prospectus as well as the ability and insight to do on-project damage control procuring stonework. A special company with a twist on conventional design to go beyond to the WOW factor! Worked with us to achieve a design on a budget! We will have Steven and his company back and unconditionally recommend to our peer group and you! I have before and after pictures and can be contacted as a reference at 'scm48069@gmail.com'.

“It was such a great pleasure working with Kari on this project - with simply stunning results. We started early on with Kari's 3-D digital modelling of her vision for the site, as well as reference photos for the stone components. We worked through a number of options for the dimensions and ultimate visual effect of the wall, column, and water feature stone cladding, working in concert with the lead stone mason from the installation company (Houston Landscapes), Kari (who maintained the communication with the client), and our stone supply options. As a relatively small install, the stone order needed to complete the job perfectly, with minimal overage ordered to avoid extraneous costs, while still ensuring adequate materials were on site. This required detailed planning of each type of stone piece; we built a flexible, visual reference model in MS Excel to detail the precise layout of the wall, column and water feature pieces before ordering these custom items. As you can see, the transformation of this space is exceptional. The client is thrilled. Throughout the entire process I found Kari to be extremely professional, available and responsive, detail-oriented, and all the while very personable and flexible within the boundaries of her and her client's vision. I look forward to the next time we can work on a project together, and would recommend Kari's services to any client.”

“When we finely decided to pull out all the stops and renovate our large backyard we challenged Landscape Effects to transform our drab seldom used yard into a breathtaking "magazine worthy" entertaining sanctuary. Starting with the design team to the heavy equipment, Landscape Effects had everything needed to bring our very ambitious dreams to fruition. Every detail from the glass tiled, four-sided spill over swimming pool, sunken gathering room with fire-pit, to the fully equipped outdoor kitchen was superbly executed. Our expectations were exceeded, not only do we practically live in our backyard but the end result has indeed been "magazine worthy" our yard was recently featured in two magazines.”

“We love working with D.A, Alexander ! We weren’t sure about what exactly we wanted, and they absolutely exceeded our expectations! Our yard is gorgeous and easy to maintain. The staff is professional, timely, and knowledgeable. Also, their reminders involving irrigation and season maintenance are very helpful ! Would highly recommend !”
