Featured Reviews for Landscape Architects & Designers in Skytop

Susan Cohan Gardens
Landscape Architects & Designers in Skytop
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsFebruary 24, 2013
“Susan did a great job redesigning the landscaping and entrance to the front of our home. Her new layout for the front walkway is brilliant. Her choice of materials for the deck railing and paving are superb. The shrubs and plants are lovely. We particularly like that they bloom at different times of the year.”
Mountain Road Landscaping

Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsNovember 1, 2014
“After having several landscapers give us design ideas, we chose Mountain Road Landscaping. My husband and I were pleasantly pleased with the crews professionalism and thouroughness. My husband and would definitely recommend this company to anyone with landscaping needs!”
ELM Garden Design
Landscape Architects & Designers in Skytop
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 26, 2015
“Working with Eustacia from ELM Garden Design was a distinct pleasure. Eustacia's professional training in, and knowledge of, landscape design combined with her knowledge of every type of plant and tree conducive to the geographic location of the project in Sullivan County, NY, made for a successful collaboration between homeowner and contractor. Eustacia and her partner Paul (a master craftsman in his own right with stonework and masonry, and all things requiring building and tools!) were always accessible and responsive. They truly were "hands-on", from selecting specimens from a nursery that met their high expectations to doing and/or supervising the actual plantings. Prior to using ELM, I had used other landscapers whose work was acceptable & functional but in retrospect paled in comparison both as to imagination and the ability to work in an environment in which the elements of nature needed to be considered and incorporated. ELM basically took over a landscape design that was functional but lacked imagination. By the time we sold the house, one of the top selling points were the beautiful plantings and gardens, along with certain stonework, created and maintained by them. Eustacia's design vision also is very keen, but she was also a good listener as to what as homeowners we wanted and envisioned, which she was able to articulate both in a design plan and then in the finished project. And on top, Eustacia and Paul are "good people"; a pleasure to have worked with them for so many years. The project date listed is an estimate of when we began, as the length stretched over 5 or more years, and involved annually adding additional elements as we began to see how certain aspects of the project developed and matured (which accounts for the wide range of project cost, which was spread over a number of years, the total closer to the lower end of the scale stated). We worked with them continuously until we sold the property. I give them the highest recommendation.”
MasterPLAN Outdoor Living
Landscape Architects & Designers in Skytop
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsDecember 19, 2014
“MasterPlan provided me with a complete landscape design for my backyard patio, pool area and deck. From the time Josh and I first met to discuss the project through the end of the construction, Josh was nothing but professional, knowledgeable and accessible. Josh provided a state of the art 3D digital proposal for my patio, deck and pool area and the final product exceeded my expectations. He oversaw all aspects of the project including obtaining the architectural drawings, filing for permits, attending a variance hearing and supervising the multiple subcontractors on the project. Josh was available for any questions or concerns that arose and checked in with me frequently for my feedback and to keep me up to date with scheduling. Josh has a welcome attention to detail and pointed out small changes that made a big difference. The final product is an impressive and welcoming backyard oasis that my family and friends will enjoy for many years. I have used designers and subcontractors on multiple occasions and this has been , by far, my best experience. I highly recommend Josh and MasterPlan to anyone considering an outdoor project. I'm looking forward to our next landscape project this spring.”

“Andrea is so incredible and innovative. She turned our Saddle River home into a peaceful oasis. What a transformation! Andrea is so easy to work with and is accessible throughout the entire project. She coordinated all of the stone work and pool design. She dealt with the continuous issues with our town and worked with all officials to ensure our projects completion. Thank you Andrea!! We love to work with you. And look forward to working with you for other projects in the future!”

The Crafted Garden
Landscape Architects & Designers in Skytop
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsOctober 9, 2014
“I enjoy doing my own gardening, but needed help creating a cohesive design for my 1-acre lawn. Susan of The Crafted Garden evaluated my property, listened to my ideas, and then created a landscape design that could be implemented in stages. She provided drawings, including transparencies over pictures of our existing garden to help us envision the change. She consulted us at each stage, telling us what to expect in costs of labor and plant material. With Susan's crew, we began in Fall '13, altering the site's hard scape, then fine-tuned the beds and planted this spring, completing the first and largest phase of the work. Susan reoriented the approach to our home, widened beds, and created a planting scheme that tied the different areas together, incorporating native species that provide good habitats for birds. Susan and her crew were prompt, worked very quickly, and left the site clean. They accomplished in two weekends what would have taken me 6 months. Susan provided information about what we needed to do to keep our plants healthy -- watering schedules, mulch, etc. it has been exciting to see the the plants flourish and to envision the garden's continuing maturity. (I have inadequate pictures taken with my phone, but will post pictures at another date.) We had a positive experience and I learned a great deal about the process. When we began, I was focused on the plants to be chosen. But it was Susan's careful preparation -- curving a walk here, arcing a bed there -- that showcased our home's best features, and set the stage for a garden that offers us color and lovely scent throughout the seasons. Based on my experience, I highly recommend Susan as a creative and knowledgeable partner.”
Dabah Landscape Designs
Landscape Architects & Designers in Skytop
Average rating: 4 out of 5 starsMarch 21, 2014
“Lawn and yard maintenance is impeccable. They also created a beautiful stone wall to separate a small flower garden from our backyard lawn that had been encroaching. It serves the purpose perfectly and adds style to the yard. When we first contacted Pamela we had a large part of our front yard that wouldn't grow anything, and she's in the process of fixing that now: looks like we'll have a thriving lawn this season.”
Madlinger Exterior Design LLC
Landscape Architects & Designers in Skytop
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 6, 2014
“Drew is a talented, artistic landscape engineer and detailed, customer-centered contracter. He not only has the ability to quickly understand your personal design objectives, but offers enlightened recommendations based upon your overviews - which improves the final design layout . His designs encorporate important factors such as water drainage, lighting, auto-maintenance and plantings that counter "deer / animal" dining preferances. His crews are highly skilled which make the important "execution"stage meet your expectations for quality. His company also offers important "after" construction services which help to maintain your outdoor "dream-scape. Oh - did I forget his fees are very fair - especially for what is delivered. He is highly recommended in my book..”

Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 28, 2013
“Carolle Huber has a true passion for design and although highly trained her talent is inherent. She has worked on several projects for my clients and has recieved high marks. My favorite project however, is the beautiful courtyard concept she came up with on the first visit to my home. She gave me the function I needed in a form that appreciates with age. All design proffessionals should be as intuitive. Sincerely John”

Professional landscaping anchors a house to the site, connects it with the environment and creates a welcoming entrance to a home. A Skytop 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 Skytop, PA 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 Skytop, PA house. From there the Skytop 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 Pennsylvania 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 Skytop 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 Skytop, PA 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 Pennsylvania 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 Skytop, PA:


  • 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?
