Having recently moved into our property, we wanted someone to come in and tidy up the yard front and back. Our property had been vacant for while and was very overgrown. My son recommended i contact Creative By Design, as he had used them previously for a installation, and was very pleased with their results. We contacted them to ask for a quote. Phil came round and met with us to discuss our vision of exactly what we wanted, offering some easy and low maintenance landscaping ideas and solutions as well. The plans they showed us was clear and concise, and the quote was very detailed for each part of the project. Their landscapers are reliable, thorough, conscientious, proactive and friendly. Everything is cleaned up at the end of each working day leaving everything safe and tidy for our dog. They gave us updates regularly as to what was happening. We have been more than pleased with the landscapes they have refreshed for us. The change to the property has been a total transformation to when we moved in. If you’re looking for a company to design your landscape, i would have no hesitation in recommending these landscapers to anyone.

Our waterfront property needed a significant landscape renovation to beautify the landscaping & irrigation, create usable living and planting spaces and better access to the beach. This company truly captured our vision and needs. With their suggestions, expertise and outstanding attention to detail, the landscapes came to life much better than we ambitioned! The installation of new walls to create low maintenance beds with stairs to get to the beach. Also, on the upper level, they created a beautiful paver patio with a new space for the hot tub. They exceeded our expectations, and we are happy to recommend them to anyone looking for landscapes around your home!

Frequently Asked Questions
The most effective method to locate trustworthy landscapers or a landscape firm is through personal recommendations. Discuss your options with your friends, neighbors, and colleagues about any companies you are considering. Another good option is to check out reviews from people that have used the local companies. Having a consultation with a company can give you a great insight to what they offer. Always check for insurance, licences and certifications. A clean design and detailed quote is also advisable before agreeing to sign a contract.
Usually the best time for preparing and planting flower beds is in the spring. This is also the best time to be undertaking hardscaping projects. Any major landscaping projects should always be done in the summer to avoid wet weather or freezing. If your looking to plant any trees or shrubs, then wait till the fall, as the cooler weather helps them to establish. Any hardscapes can be continued into late fall as long as you dont run into too much rain or excessive snow and freezing
