### Reviews

**★★★★★ — Jim McVay and Michelle Zistler, Dec. 2023**

> Troy and his LifeScape team are very professional and great to work with throughout the landscape process completing the job on time and within budget. We are very pleased with Troy’s creative design and hands on project management.  The same is true for his team of highly skilled workers.  Their detailed attention to customer requirements for the landscaping brought forth a beautiful, easy to maintain yard. The materials utilized (including landscape infrastructure and plant selections) are of high quality.
>
> We highly recommend LifeScape to anyone who wants a top-tier landscape design and implementation experience.

**★★★★★ — Mary Middelburg, Dec. 2023**

> We had an extensive outdoor construction project that included the need for a new deck, lower level hardscaping, landscaping, lights and water. We contracted for the new deck prior to our landscape/hardscape project with Lifescapes so it required coordination with the deck builder which can be tricky. Troy and the Lifescapes team were super responsive, highly professional, and worked with us to make adjustments to the design as the project evolved. They even assisted with some needed feedback for the deck builders so that we got the amazing product we have today. While our project was a significant investment we are certain that our return has exceeded the cost with the increased value of our home and the liveable square footage. We've done a number of home design projects both here in the front range and up in the mountains. Our experience has been that most contractors treat their projects as a job (at best) and few are craftsmen who treat the project as a profession. Lifescapes is one of the very few who are truly professionals.

**★★★★★ — Lisa Baxter, Nov. 2023**

> Lifescapes was excellent in every way! From the beginning of the project, they listened, and they followed through to a superb finished project. Jacob was amazing with his design and communication. Taylor was phenomenal with the execution and management of the job site. I’d highly recommend Lifescapes, they really treat their employees well and are extremely professional. I’m very thankful and can’t thank them for their personal touches and follow up.They will be here if I ever need anything! I am just so proud of my new yard, and I made new friends through this project. I would give them 10 stars if possible.

**★★★★★ — Greta Swanson, Nov. 2023**

> They were amazing start to finish. The best company ever. Everyone was so professional. We are very happy!! We highly recommend.

**★★★★★ — Natalie Asher, Oct. 2023**

> Lifescape did a full remodel of our front yard that we could not be more pleased with. Todd (designer) created a beautiful plan that honors the design aesthetic of our home while incorporating the practical needs for our family and finding solutions to minimize water consumption. James (project manager) was attentive to all of our needs throughout the project and a thoughtful problem solver when issues arose, as is inevitable with construction projects. The whole Lifescape team went above and beyond and we will surely be calling on them in the future to make our back yard as stunning as the front.

**★★★★★ — Mike Holtzer, July 2023**

> Our project was a complete landscape renovation.  Front and back, including replacing the river rock with mulch, adding various plants that would supply color throughout the growing season, removing "unnecessary" trees, plants, and shrubs, placing sod where the grass had stopped growing (including a new lawn area in the front), updated landscape lighting, and a complete driveway makeover (from concrete to individual pavers).
>
> From the initial planning meeting, we felt confident that Lifescape had the knowledge and expertise to do a great job.  Their attention to detail was excellent, and the constant communication kept us informed every step of the way.  The crew that showed up every day were hard working and skilled.  Considering we have a 1/2 acre lot, this was a fairly large project.
>
> As a follow-up, Lifescape regularly maintains our landscaping keeping it looking great!

**★★★★★ — HU-601590301, June 2022**

> We did an exhaustive, detailed search of landscaping companies in the Denver-Boulder-Longmont area.  We narrowed our list to 10 companies and interviewed 4 companies on our property before we selected Lifescape Colorado.  Our project involved completely removing all that was remaining from the landscaping that existed when we bought the property and starting from scratch to design and install a landscape plan.  We specifically wanted a company that also provides ongoing maintenance.  Lifescape Colorado has exceeded our expectations in every phase of the project.  Designer Frank Pendrell worked with us to develop a creative, innovative design combining plants and hardscape that is rich and beautiful, but also conserves water.  Brian Holmes and his installation team worked exceptionally hard every moment they were on the property and did a great job of installation.  Every person at Lifescape with whom we interacted said what they would do and did what they said.  Not only did they do a great job, they were communicative and fun to work with.  We can't say enough good things abut Lifescape Colorado.  Frank and Barbara Mendicino

**★★★★★ — HU-235068780, Nov. 2021**

> Lifescape helps us with all of our yard maintenance, from the normal mowing, to sprinkler set up, adjustments, yard clean ups and weddings.  Mark was our garden manager this year and he was super friendly, helpful, accessible and took care of all our needs and any concerns.

**Comment from Lifescape Colorado.:**

> Thank you for your kind review, we are delighted to hear our team is providing the great service we train on. We appreciate you as well!

**★★★★★ — HU-481387108, Nov. 2021**

> Lifescape Colorado is a quality lawn care company. Their knowledge, communication skills, attentiveness, and team approach to customers services are great. I have been a customer for several years, appreciate working with Casey, and would highly recommend Lifescape Colorado.

**Comment from Lifescape Colorado.:**

> Thank you for your loyalty, we are delighted to hear our team is providing the great service we train on. We appreciate you as well!

**★★★★★ — HU-502179357, Nov. 2021**

> Our multi-unit business has worked with Lifescape for many years.  We have completed both small and large scale landscaping projects with them, on-going maintenance of the properties, including holiday lighting, snow removal and irrigation needs.  We have never been disappointed with the quality of their work.  Our Account Manager, Casey has great communication and keeps our team informed about upcoming visits, projects and he regularly goes out of his way to complete on-site walks to ensure consistent performance by his team.  There have been times where he has gone above and beyond and even out of scope to help us, for example bringing us loaner caution cones when our parking lot had an unexpected sinkhole.  We appreciate Lifescape and all that they do to keep our businesses attractive to our guests.

**★★★★★ — Catherine Kilstrom, Oct. 2021**

> Lifescapes has been my chosen landscape company for 10+ years. They are professional, with attention to detail. I appreciate their expertise and will contract with them to design and maintain the landscape plan at the new home I am building.
> Highly recommend!!

## Community Q&A

**Q: lantern request** *(in Photo Questions)*

Where is the lantern from? Is it solar or battery? Beautiful back yard!

A: Thank you. I don't have the information about the lantern

**Q: No saucers under pots** *(in Photo Questions)*

How are they keeping water from staining?

A: Hi, thank you for your question! If we are not using a saucer, then we will insert a PVC pipe to the bottom and handpump out excess water. The bottom of the container does not have a hole or it is plugged. The tile also is sealed for added protection and to keep it looking pristine!

**Q: Love the porch furniture would love to know where its from!** *(in Photo Questions)*

Would love to know the brand of the chairs and sofa.  Thanks!

A: Hi, thank you for your questions! Unfortunately, this furniture already belonged to our client so I do not have the brand name. It is similar to some Restoration Hardware collections though.

**Q: What type of trees?** *(in Photo Questions)*

Can you tell me what type of trees those are please?

A: Hi there! The tall, columnar trees are a Parkland Pillar Birch.

**Q: What is the producer and model of the fire pit in this pic?** *(in Photo Questions)*

What is the producer and model of the fire pit in this pic? Also, is it fueled by a propane tank or direct line? Thank you!

A: Hi Schatzi! Thank you for reaching out to us about this beautiful fire pit! This was a custom design by Raw Urth and has a direct gas line running to it. 
http://rawurth.com/
Have a great day!

**Q: Can you please tell me where you sourced the flooring?** *(in Photo Questions)*

What is the tile? Thank you.

Thanks!
