I first met with Carol two years ago. I desperately needed help transforming my backyard. I found Landscape Design in a Day  on the web and I was drawn to her concept.  The way she organized the design process allowed me to know exactly what I was spending on design services. Not knowing what a design company would charge had in the past held me back from moving forward.

Carol also recommended a contractor that worked out wonderfully. It is important to note that Carol’s service is design only but she has contractors she works with that are familiar with her designs and execute them very well.

I met with Carol and the result was exactly what I had in mind with all of the mistakes I would have made weeded out. Carol was fun to work with. She asks lots of questions, is thoughtful about the space and its function, flow, and energy and just plain has a good eye. She can take what the client wants fundamentally and make it work beautifully. She is knowledgeable about all aspects of landscape design including the hardscape.

My back yard paver patio, paths, gas fire pit, and the first phase of plants was installed last fall.  The second phase of plants will go in come spring.

I have enjoyed very much working with Carol and look forward to designing the front yard with her next summer.
