Design Consultation Professionals in Shelton, CT

“When I purchased my home last year the landscape was neglected and was in need of a full update including planting and hardscape. Brook Clark came highly recommended by my neighbor and his property looks amazing! My goal was to have a natural-looking landscape with a contemporary feel and BCLA delivered just that. The Master Plan addressed everything on my wishlist and the construction documents make the bidding and installation process easy. Well worth the investment to have a landscape architect guide me through the process from start to finish. Now that the job is complete I am proud to host outdoor gatherings in my beautiful yard!”

“I had an excellent experience with Outdoor Design! Chris and his team are very dedicated, hard-working, and full of ideas on how to make the most of your backyard. I had gotten a free estimate from Chris when my irrigation company recommended him. I called him to talk about grading my yard before sprinklers were installed, but somehow, 2 months later, we had our backyard oasis completely finished, and had gained an outdoor living room, dining room and kitchen for a fraction of what an actual building addition would have been. Plus, mature trees for added privacy and landscaping Martha Stewart would be envious of! Chris and Dave took my ideas and budget and made what I had envisioned happen. Chris prices out the estimate a la carte; which means that you don't have to do everything right then; I could start the project and add the fireplace later, or the stonewall seating next year... I was able to shave some of the cost by reusing my hydrangeas and buying some of my own shrubs. Mario and the masonry team are some of the hardest working men I've ever met. They would set up tents in the rain just to keep working! The end result is stunning; Two friends have already hired Chris in the last 6 months to build their own dream backyards. What sets Outdoor Design apart from the competition is that they stand by their work. Chris is a lifelong resident of Fairfield (as am I) and knows that reputation is everything. As he says, he wants his customers to be "ecstatic"! He was an absolute pleasure to work with, as was his entire team. I highly recommend Outdoor Design, give them a call, and I'd be happy to personally talk to anyone who is on the fence. This company is one of the "good ones"!”

“Barbara consulted with us with regard to landscaping for our property. The former owners spent $$$ on extensive landscaping and irrigation systems. Unfortunately, they did not work with a Landscape Architect, and the nursery salespeople provided a layout and selection which looked great when installed but after 10 years has grown in to a point where we have an overcrowding problem which can only be resolved by extensive removal of plantings and reconfiguration. Barbara provided us with a Plan to accomplish this and the result is very effective. I highly recommend Barbara for her professionalism and creative solutions and strongly advise others to use a licensed Landscape Architect as the 1st step when they are considering any updates or changes to their landscaping.”

“DMSsitedesign did a fabulous job designing and overseeing the installation of all of the landscaping around our new pool and cabana area. David and his staff were sensitive to our needs and budget. His expertise extends far beyond landscaping, he is a true design professional as is evidenced by his work. We continue to get compliments, even from friends who have been to the house many times. The work DMSsitedesign did looks beautiful in every season. I plan to use them again when we redesign the front of our home and landscaping. David Schiffer's vision for our project completely satisfied all of our expectations and totally exceeded them.”

“In 2012 after living in our house for the last 18 years, we decided to update our 1970's colonial rather than move. This project included the landscaping as well as the home itself. After looking at many landscape companies and numerous properties, we decided to hire The LaurelRock Company. We felt that their landscape designers were very current and had a way of listening and interpreting a very botanically uneducated clients wishes! They married our newly remodeled home with our existing pool as if it had always been built this way. The outcome was a very cohesive project that was handled with the utmost professionalism and timeliness. Thank you LaurelRock for helping us have the home of our dreams !”

“We hired Nancy King and her company Seventy Acres to design and build our patio and outdoor areas for our transitional modern farmhouse in Litchfield County, Ct. Her artistry can be seen on her Houzz site. She did a great job, was a pleasure to work with all throughout the process. Her assessment and recos for sub-contractors were excellent. Nancy has a wonderful personality, is very organized and really helped bring our unified vision to completion. Our house is a delight to behold...we truly enjoy all the beautification she brought to it. Her husband Charles is a great guy, super creative also, and took the wonderful photographs.”

“As another gardening professional who has been working with Columbine Fine Landscape Gardening for over two years on various projects, I would recommend them to anyone. Roberta is a knowledgable and caring owner who has many years of professional horticultural knowledge under her belt. Professional development of her staff and team are always at the top of her list so her team doesn't rotate year after year and stays up on the latest gardening techniques and information. All of her client's properties receive top of the line care and attention to detail.”

“Allison took our large, grassy side and backyards and made them into wonderful, usable, gathering, sitting, dining, planting areas. We used and enjoyed our backyard more in the past year, than we did in the prior 25 years. Thank you Allison.”

“Thunder Hill Design provides beautiful landscape designs. The outdoor design and the landscape show a natural flow that integrates with the architecture of the building and the natural surroundings. Gail is a pleasure to work with. She beautifully achieves a continuation between the inside and the outside and she is a true artist. We worked on many projects with her and it has been a success everytime.”
