**★★★★★ — lskoog, March 2014**

> We hired Design Development to design and install plantings for our entire property, including our newly completed poolscape.  Ed worked with us extensively on the plan, meeting with us several times to make sure we were happy before we proceeded.  He is very knowledgeable of plants, offered us great suggestions, and designed a beautiful plan for our house.  During onsite installation, Ed and his team were extremely professional and completed the project in the expected timeframe.  In terms of customer service, Ed is the best!  He is professional, reliable, and truly a pleasure to work with.  In addition, he stands by his work.  When we had a few plants die following the first winter, he replaced them without any issues.  We would highly recommend Ed to complete your landscaping project!

**★★★★★ — sojack03, March 2014**

> We have had this company here for several jobs, including landscaping and building a two level deck.    Cannot say enough about the professionalism and attention to detail.  Ed always responded quickly with any question I may have had.  He (and his employees) were very easy to work with and trusted them completely.
> Ed designed a plan for a stone front walkway and plantings around this walkway for best curbside appeal.  He planned a clearing of the yard to "open up" the house and allow for more of a view and more sun to filter in.
> Ed also replaced our old deck with a beautiful multilevel deck (including installing new footings).  This was complete with railings, steps.
> I would highly recommend this company to anyone that is looking to have some landscaping done.  He is great at giving you ideas if you are unsure, which is very important to many people.

**★★★★★ — craignorton, March 2014**

> Shortly after moving into our new home we hired Design Development to design and install a complete new landscape for our property. Ed worked closely with us offering up excellent ideas and allowing us include some of our favorite plantings.  From design to installation Ed was a true professional and his design was just what we were looking for.   He worked within our budget and listened to our needs. His team was professional, courteous and a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend Ed and his team from Design Development.

**★★★★★ — thefazbass, March 2014**

> Design Development Transformed our front lawn/entryway from outdated and drab, to hip and fab! -- The team was very skilled, and paid great attention to detail. Would highly recommend them to anyone
