Landscape Architects and Garden Designers in Melvindale, 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.”

“Four Seasons Designer, Dena Serrato, met with me on several occasions at office and my home to envision possibilities for front walk and wall, and complete back yard design and plantings. Once the design was accepted she recommended materials, plantings, etc. All coordinated with views from windows, seasonal color changes, and more. This was a major job including more than 10 trees, dozens of bushes and dozens more perennial plantings plus flagstone patios, brick walls, and brick walks. Excellent service and very customer-oriented. The crew that did the installation was fantastic. Arrived on time daily. Worked without idling. Cleaned thoroughly each day so all public walks and passages on the property were spic and span. Work was completed on time and according to specifications. I have done major landscaping projects at previous homes. My experienced assessment is that Four Seasons Garden Center & Custom Landscape company and all the staff and contractors who worked on this project are First Class.”

“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.”

“Domenico Brick Paving & Landscaping provided a top notch experience for us. They made recommendations and provided insight on the best materials to use to achieve our project goals. They showed us many examples of previous work they had done and provided a host of references. They gave us an estimate and stuck to it! High marks for these guys.”

“I have used Richard on my last two homes. not only is he a pleasure to work with but he also is sensitive to budgets as well as get the look that we were looking for. i cant tell you how many people knocked on our door to ask who was our landscape architect. I would highly recommend Stewart Hass and Assocaites”

“I have had the good fortune of collaborating with Michael J. Dul and Associates for over twenty years. The firm can take a site and go from conceptual ideas to detailed drawings to construction completion. The award winning designs speak for themselves in all aspects. The professional staff is both knowledgable and timely in all aspects of thier projects. With the loyal trade group they employ to a limitless list of suppliers Michael J. Dul and Associate can provide design and professional services that are unmatched in the industry.”

“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.”

“The company removed a retaining wall that was leaning due to a poor foundation installation by a previous business years ago. The created a new base and installed a new wall that looks great. The employees did a great job and cleaned up afterwards. We would highly recommend this company. They were a pleasure to work with and would not hesitate to call on them again.”

“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.”
