6 / 12 / 2019 Update on Scheduling:

Laura and I would like to thank everyone who has taken the time to submit a questionnaire and contact us. We have met so many people who said “this is what I need!”.

Land Design is just Laura and myself and we currently have several dozen new clients to schedule and a number of managed and design projects in progress.

This means new clients contacting us will have a wait time before a site visit.

We currently estimate new client appointments to be in Mid-August to September. Early Fall is a wonderful time of year to start planning large Spring 2020 projects or tackle smaller 2019 projects as Fall is an excellent time for many types of plantings.

We will stay in contact with waiting list clients by email and provide scheduling updates here as best we can. Our 2 hour consult scheduling is subject to weather and the demands of our larger projects. We group appointments by location to be more efficient but we will get to you if you can wait. If you can’t wait we certainly understand.

Thanks for your understanding and patience!

John

Please take the time to thoughtfully fill out the below landscape design questionnaire with the input of everyone from your household. It is the first important step in the process of designing your landscape.

We realize that you may not have all of the “answers” to these questions; that’s why you called a landscape designer! If anything doesn’t apply or make sense for your particular situation, feel free to skip over it.

Typically our schedule does not permit us to review photos, property surveys, or other information before our appointment. Please gather anything you have and we’ll review it when we meet.

Once you have submitted the form you should be redirected to a confirmation page. If this does not happen please give us a call; technology is not perfect! We are a 2 person company so phone calls may take several days to return.

We look forward to helping you create the outdoor space you’ve been dreaming of.

These included the design and installation of new front landscaping, using many native plants as well as some plants we wanted to retain, that replaced an overgrown planting installed several years ago by a now-defunct nursery; renovation and overseeding of our too-long neglected lawn; and installation of polymeric sand in our existing front bluestone walk and backyard fieldstone terrace (which included correcting a long-standing drainage problem in the back terrace) to reduce, or even eliminate,  the need for weeding of those problem areas.  They provided expert assistance in selecting plantings as well as detailed  cost estimates.  Recently, they provided us with suggestions for areas of the back yard and gardens that need attention, and we will be working with them again this year. read less

They built a walled garden with trellis entrance and raised beds on a difficult slope. This has been a wonderful addition!They updated out current landscaping, carefully selecting native and deer-resistant plants as well as plants to attract pollinators. The plants have thrived in our difficult clay soil. They also installed a rain barrel which has helped us reclaim a great deal of roof runoff.

They did a blue stone patio with built in drainage. 

The most recent project was a unique, Piet Oudolf- style large border beds utilizing native flowers and grasses that will be self-thatching and allows us to avoid mulch.

Overall, they are very detail-focused. They work well to meet their clients needs. They are highly reliable and communcate well. Any project they are involved with will be unique.  I look forward to working with them in the future. read less

We wanted a natural look that used native plants the were deer resistant and ones that would hold up to four seasons and a lot of stiff breezes.  We selected Landscape Design because they were able to draw up a plan that included all of our wants and needs.  John also designed a plan that could be done in stages so we may have the desired results in a few year.  We were very happy with the plan and even happier with the results of the project they have completed so far.  John and Laura are meticulous and hard working.  They have done a splendid job as illustrated by the before and after shots of our front yard.  They promise to deliver and deliver on their promises. read less
