Featured Reviews for Landscape Architects & Designers in Manchester Center

Mandy's Spring Nursery and Landscaping
Landscape Architects & Designers in Manchester Center
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJanuary 23, 2014
“Great attention to detail. This is a family run business. Superior products. Honest company that stands by what it sells. I often see their plants and arrangements at friends homes and it always looks great.”

“I loved working with both Julie and Jana. They had great ideas, were very collaborative and were enthusiastic about helping me turn my funky property around. I used them as consultants and they hooked me up with some great gardeners.”
Home Outside
Landscape Architects & Designers in Manchester Center
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMay 20, 2013
“Home Outside helped us transform our backyard -- a boring bowling-alley of grass that we hated -- into an inspiring, magical, and well-loved space that we enjoy and are so proud of. We did their easy online questionnaire, emailed photos and videos of our property, and they sent us 2 totally creative and different designs to choose from. We asked them to combine aspects of each design into the final product, and then we got to work. When it came time to plant, we had some questions about plants and placements -- this is our first garden ever -- and Home Outside answered all our questions. We loved, loved, loved that we could do all the work ourselves, at our own pace, and still have this sophisticated and interesting design that we never, in a million years, could have created without Home Outside. We can't believe that our little backyard received the attention, focus, expertise, experience and creativity of these highly skilled and talented designers. Amazing to us that we had access to them. We are so glad we put some money into an excellent design that works for us. It's made all the difference. Totally worth every single penny.”

“Ellen's ability to create beautiful kitchen gardens is unmatched. Her designs incorporate an array of unexpected combinations that are a delight to the eye. I look forward to my next opportunity to work with her!”
JM Designs
Landscape Architects & Designers in Manchester Center
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 10, 2014
“I hired JM Designs to design a raised stone patio. I could not be more pleased. The circular design fit the house perfectly and included some ideal recommendations for the accompanying plantings, both on and around the porch. JM worked closely with me selecting the right stone and stone color and located an exceptional contractor who brought it all to life. JM met all or our mutually established deadlines presented just the right amount of options, and was exceptionally easy to work with, deflecting dumb homeowner ideas with considerable grace -- and always for the greater good of the project. I should note, I have also used JM Design for the front yard landscaping and the design and construction of a retaining wall, with similar results.”

Andrew Zema's Landscaping, Inc.
Landscape Architects & Designers in Manchester Center
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsNovember 21, 2016
“It was immediately apparent after meeting Andrew that we wanted to work with him for our Japanese Garden installation. His knowledge of the Berkshires and the plants that work well here is unparalleled. His understanding of practical and beautiful garden design is exceptional. His own work, and that of his team is of the highest possible standard. During the installation, we watched Andrew spend 20 minutes find the perfect placement for a large rock - we didn't understand what the fuss was about - now we realize that that rock serves as a seat for us within the garden and provides a spectacular view of the pond and waterfalls. Our garden is an oasis that brings joy whenever we see it. Uniquely, immediately after finishing the garden it looked like it had always been there - which over the past four years has only become more beautiful. I cannot recommend Andrew and his team highly enough. It is a decision that you will not live to regret.”

“The RDG team has worked with Wildside Cottage & Gardens in Conway MA since 2008, beginning when our eight acres of hill, ledge and soggy meadow were wild except for the remnants of an old Christmas tree farm. At that time our pretty 780 sf net-zero cottage was just nearing completion. RDG first assessed the wind, water, soil conditions and sun exposure across the seasons, then carefully sited seven specialized gardens where the crops planted in each would thrive. The gardens emphasize perennial plantings, and include herbs, perennial vegetables, fruit trees, grape vines, nut trees, tubers, legumes and other plants which nourish our needy soil, annual storage crops including rice, plus three seasons of flowering plants to provide food for pollinators. With time, Wildside is becoming a hugely productive ‘edible landscape’ -- without clear- cutting or chemical insecticides and fertilizers. RDG’s approach has also helped us maintain our precious connection with the wildlife living here, and traveling through. RDG has given us expert design advice on infrastructure -- from steps down a steep hillside, to a boardwalk across a wet meadow, to water conservation through terracing hillsides and capturing run-off, to extracting valuable leachate from the composting toilet, to how to make our root cellar optimal for old-fashioned underground winter storage. RDG also designed and built our small unheated greenhouse, which now accommodates two fig trees, winter spinach, various spring starts, and in summer either tomatoes or, alternately, sweet potatoes. Wildside’s goal has been to develop a demonstration and teaching site that will help visiting students and the general public learn how to achieve better food and energy security for the future. The RDG team have been indispensable partners in this project. The RDG team is hugely knowledgeable, patient and good-natured, and their prices are clear and reasonable. We at Wildside can recommend RDG without reservation. wildsidecottageandgardens.org”

Professional landscaping anchors a house to the site, connects it with the environment and creates a welcoming entrance to a home. A Manchester Center landscape architect or designer works with living plants as well as building materials to design for future growth and maintenance as well as the present visual appeal. Landscape architecture is very regional, so look for a landscape designer near me that’s familiar with the local climate and plant types that do well there. Start here to learn more about the landscaping design services in Manchester Center, VT that will help create your dream garden.

What does a landscape architect do?


The work of this outdoor professional includes most everything surrounding a home's exterior. A landscaping architect can even work with the home architect to choose the right spot for your Manchester Center, VT house. From there the Manchester Center landscaper will develop preliminary concepts for your front or backyard design based on individual needs including the climate and activities that will take place, as well as layouts and planting plans. Landscape architects near me will also design any structures or outbuildings that will be added to the space. Any grading changes that will be added to the yard are also the responsibility of the architect. This includes any drainage modifications. An engineer can also be responsible for these tasks, but licensed Vermont landscapers are fully capable. Like building architects, they will produce preliminary concept drawings as well as detailed construction documents and planting plans. Three-dimensional renderings and illustrative plans are all supplementary.

What does a landscape designer do?


A Manchester Center landscaping designer generally will have ecological, aesthetic and technical training, which helps them maximize the potential of your outdoor space. Keeping in mind both style and functionality, garden designers analyze your architecture and yard to produce a professional landscape design plan that may or may not include location and materials for walkways, patios, water features, fences, garden aspects and more. In addition, a landscaper in Manchester Center, VT will carefully assess your geographic region to choose plants, trees and flowers that will flourish naturally, as well as address concerns such as drainage, screening and soil conditions. Certain landscape designing services only help with the planning portion, while some may deliver the plans and then oversee a hired landscaping contractor. Others — typically following a design-build approach — take care of both the design and all aspects of the landscape architecture and construction.

Before you hire a Vermont professional landscaper, consider the scope and emphasis of your outdoor project. Landscape architecture firms typically hire individuals who hold advanced degrees in their field and are trained to develop comprehensive structural plans that include plants, hardscaping, water use, drainage and more. Local landscape designers, also known as landscape planners, typically specialize in the aesthetic and horticultural, rather than structural, side of yard and garden planning. They might or might not have advanced training. Even within their fields, backyard designers near me may specialize in hardscape- or vegetation-focused designs. In some cases you might need to hire additional help to get the outdoor space you want.

Questions to ask prospective landscapers in Manchester Center, VT:


  • Can you provide me with references?
  • How long have you been in the landscaping business?
  • What is your certification?
  • Do you have liability insurance?
  • How much do you charge, and what does that include?
  • What regions and climates are you skilled in?
  • Can you accommodate my special requests (such as ADA or LEED)?
  • What types of renderings will you produce?
  • What is your experience with similar projects?
  • When can you complete this project?
  • What do your services include?
  • Who will be working on the project design?
  • What happens when costs exceed budget, whether due to materials or labor pricing changes? What about changes made by the client or by the professionals — what kinds of situations would cause those costs to be incurred?
  • Can you provide me with a written estimate?
  • What will I need to provide?
  • Are there any important considerations or concerns that you know of or that might come up in the future with this project?
