You have hit the jackpot and found your guy. Do yourself a favor and call Grant at GDM now. I have nothing but great things to say about Grant and his team. We have been through several remodels and I can honestly say that GDM has by far been the best company that we have hired. We loved them so much we continue to call them anytime we have a project. We did a complete remodel of our front and backyard which included a pool. Coming from an industry where service, time management and attention to detail are SUPER important, I worried that maybe those qualities didn't exist in a landscape/construction company. Well I was wrong. We finally found a company that has the same ideals. If you want to work with someone honest, hardworking, no suprises and who doesn't take short cuts. Call Grant and his team. You won't find anyone better. Thank you Grant for our amazing backyard. We are obsessed! **★★★★★ — garymacfarlaneedwards, Dec. 2019** > GDM Landscape did an absolutely great job on our home landscape and hardscape installation. Our project was extensive - pool, spa, water features, and significant stone installation, along with the typical tree and plant material. Grant and his GDM team are highly experienced and professional, with thorough knowledge of plant material. They showed up when promised, and put in significant effort so our installation could be completed as quickly as possible. We would highly recommend GDM Landscape to anyone considering a major landscape installation. **★★★★★ — Jean Wu, March 2018** > I would highly recommend Grant McCorkle and his fabulous team for your next landscaping project. They have quality workmanship and reliable service. Their expertise from beginning to end showed in all aspects. My expectations were exceeded, and we are loving our yard! **Comment from GDM Landscape Inc:** > Thank you for giving us the opportunity to do your job. We have enjoyed working with you on your this project. You have been a great client and easy to work for. We hope that you have many great memories in your backyard. We will always be here for you if you need anything. GDM **★★★★★ — Edward Cook, Sept. 2017** > I am pleased to provide this reference for Grant McCorkle of GDM Landscape. GDM completed our intricate, high-end landscaping on our waterfront home in Newport Beach, CA. The project was complex as the stone was designed on CAD with a renowned stone fabricator from Seattle, WA and fabricated by hand in China and shipped to the US. Grant's team handled everything from the laying of beautiful sand-set hand finished granite pavers to landscape walls with templated wall caps of high end limestone to an integrated sprinkler system, high end lighting and all plantings. Our project had a licensed Landscape Architect with detailed plans. Grant himself weighed in many times with better recommendations for plants and ideas. He also brought in an expert team to design our gates and fountain for this waterfront home. Grant was communicative and a great problem solver as he took over work reserved for other masonry subcontractors who could not complete their work timely. > > Grant specifies and installs high-end and very durable lighting and has a great team who have worked with him for some time. I highly recommend GDM landscape. I am a commercial real estate professional that executes large, institutional quality projects and GDM Landscape performed to my high standards and stood tall whenever there was an issue. > > Nearly five years after our project was completed, Grant has assisted me twice to source replacement parts for lighting that was inadvertently damaged. He returns calls and cares. That says more than anything about standing behind his work and his ethics. **★★★★★ — Reuter Homes, April 2017** > Grant is a "completionist". That may or may not be a new word but it means that he works diligently and professionally until the job is completely done. Many in our business leave "loose ends" and it drives me crazy. Grant and his team see to it that every detail gets installed in a timely manner, with a healthy dose of creativity as needed. His great work ethic and "can do, no problem" attitude are a blessing. I will continue to use him on my jobs. He is a true asset. **★★★★★ — Glena Cheng, April 2017** > Grant has a great crew who was able to turn my front, back, and side yards into an oasis that fit my simple and modern taste, while still complementing the feel of my neighborhood. We ran into a couple snafus in the project as is expected in any project, but Grant was able to take care of the problems graciously at his own cost to make sure I got the final product that we talked about. All my neighbors and friends have complimented GDM's workmanship, Greatly appreciated Grant's knowledge and expertise, be in it plants, hardscape, lighting, etc. **Comment from GDM Landscape Inc:** > Thank you for the kind words. We all have enjoyed working with you. We absolutely appreciate the opportunity to work for you. **★★★★★ — Dan de la Paz, March 2017** > GDM Landscape did an amazing job with our hardscape/landscape project! They performed above our expectations and ahead of schedule. Grant and his crew are good at finding solutions and ideas if your plans change. I would use them again if we do another project, thank you for making our home rock! **Comment from GDM Landscape Inc:** > Thank you for the nice review. We enjoyed working for you also. Like most of our customers we leave the job feeling like we have new friends. We would be happy to work for you again any time. You guys were amazing clients. **★★★★★ — nadine3030, Aug. 2016** > We hired Grant to build the front and backyard of our brand new home, which sits on a 10,000 sq ft lot. Grant and his team successfully transformed a big piece of dirt into an absolutely beautiful outdoor space! His workmanship and attention to detail are superior. Grant never takes shortcuts and only uses the best materials out there to build outdoor spaces that last for years and years to come. > > Grant takes a lot of pride in his work and has a lot of integrity. It is not often that you work with contractors who are honest, have a strong work ethic, and will do their very best to deliver every single time. GMD exceeded our expectations in every way, and Grant was an absolute pleasure to work with! **★★★★★ — toddj4, July 2016** > Contracted with GDM to provide Landscaping on a house remodel project in HB. As we increased the scope of our project , Grant and his team were instrumental in so many ways getting us the backyard we dreamed of . We ended up with amenities in the front and backyard which would rival 5 star hotels anywhere . Grant and his team were true to their word, very courteous , honest, cleaned up constantly, quick to complete projects and the workmanship was fantastic. Many times contractors don't live up to their promises, Grant did what he said he'd do and he managed his team and the process which I was thankful didn't have to do . We couldn't ask for more, we're raving fans. **★★★★★ — Vedika Hemrajani, June 2016** > Tried and True. We worked with Grant of GDM over 9 years ago on our new home in Turtle Ridge, Irvine CA. It was a great experience then and after 10 years of enjoying our home and yard the WOW factor remains. There is not a day when we go to our backyard and let out a deep SIGH with pleasure. They made the landscape an extension of our living space. The quality, of workmanship has held over the years. They have been super nice about returning to advice and help with any issues as recently as last 2 months almost 9 years after project is completed. > > During the construction process they were knowledgeable, professional about keeping our budget in check. No runaway costs or surprise expenses and finished ON time. > > They listened and observed to our lifestyle needs and designed a landscape that has not only met our needs but added tremendous value to our home. I'm sure the backyard will be the deal maker when we plan to sell our home. The pictures speak for them selves. Enjoy **★★★★★ — Dustin Hamilton, June 2016** > I hired GDM Landscape to landscape my back yard. I got the companys name from someone they have done work for. Grant was amazing as the owner he is extremely involved has a eye for detail & does exceptional work! During the project lots of obstacles arose like any construction project, but grant has so many contacts he was able to help me quickly resolve them. His crew was very respectful and trustworthy which was a big concern of my as I have a young wife & daughter at home. I would give the company 10 if I could it turned out even better than expected. **★★★★ — Alicia Volkov, June 2016** > GDM provided hardscape and landscape services as part of our backyard extensive remodel that included renovation of a casita and pool as well as front yard. Recommended by our general contractor, we found Grant able to interface well with the general's team, subcontractors, the architect and us homeowners. The project spanned over a year and GDM was there for many stages. They laid a new, extensive concrete patio, as well as poolside planters, large board form fire pit, tile work on the pool, establish hillside path and entire new front driveway and planters. They worked with us to refine our landscape and outdoor lighting plan and plant numerous bushes, trees, flowers, grass, etc and select all the fixtures. The job all looks beautiful as photos will show. We are very happy with the end product and the fact that if we have any issue, Grant is there to assist and responds quickly with a positive attitude. ## Selected projects - [Via Ensueno](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/via-ensueno-pj-vj~5955185) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 7 - [Marapota](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/marapota-pj-vj~5955336) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 4 - [Catamaran](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/catamaran-pj-vj~1858705) - Location: Huntington Beach, CA - Photos: 18 - [Summer Circle](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/summer-circle-pj-vj~2074747) - Location: Huntington Beach, CA - Photos: 8 - [Laurel Street](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/laurel-street-pj-vj~917397) - Location: Manhattan Beach, CA - Photos: 6 - [Old Course](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/old-course-pj-vj~917368) - Location: Newport Beach, CA - Photos: 4 - [5th street](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/5th-street-pj-vj~916804) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 6 - [Asilomar Road](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/asilomar-road-pj-vj~5955101) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 4 - [Ford Rd](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/ford-rd-pj-vj~917414) - Location: Hermosa Beach, CA - Photos: 4 - [Salmon St](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/salmon-st-pj-vj~2612991) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 4 - [Midori](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/midori-pj-vj~1771157) - Location: Irvine, CA - Photos: 4 - [Palisades](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/palisades-pj-vj~917348) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 5 - [Grand View](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/grand-view-pj-vj~1858711) - Location: Irvine, CA - Photos: 5 - [Sausalito](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/sausalito-pj-vj~7820731) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 7 - [Ocean Vista](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/ocean-vista-pj-vj~7820709) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 7 - [Paseo Elegancia](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/paseo-elegancia-pj-vj~7817661) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 3 - [Railing Newport Beach](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/railing-newport-beach-pj-vj~7652226) - Location: Newport Beach, CA - Photos: 1 [See all 17 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/landscape-contractors/gdm-landscape-inc-pfvwus-pf~1737830340) ## Community Q&A **Q: who is the architect?** *(in Photo Questions)* may i know who is the architect on this one, I really fell in love with this home. thank you A: Le Tourneau Architechture, Chris 949 673-3834 **Q: How did you protect the TV from the weather?** *(in Photo Questions)* A: The make covers for the TV's.
