DVA Consulting and Design

Vicky and her team were great to work for a major renovation of my front yard in Fremont. She was very creative in her ideas how to meet my desire for color and variety. She was understanding and accommodating to integrating plants, rocks drift wood I had attahements to. Drainage was updated and irrigation installed. The out come was wonderful and I look forward to it maturing. I will finally get to enjoy my yard instead of spending all my time dragging a hose around.

I hired DVA consulting and design to build an elevated deck that we could walk directly from the kitchen and the bedroom (14x28). We discussed multiple options on design and materials and they were able to source the beautiful and termite & weather resistant Mangaris hardwood that I was set on. The space also required a way to get to the outdoor basement staircase and the hydraulic trap door was a creative solution. They handled everything from getting permits, meeting with the inspectors, and electrical work. They communicated well with every stage of the project. I will hire them again to do the next phases of my backyard plan. Many thanks! Laura Huntley

We hired DVA Consulting and Design to re-do part of our garden. Vicki did an excellent assessment, listened closely to what we wanted and developed a design that we loved. Her team did all of the planting, fertilizing and some garden maintenance for us, while also giving great advice and educating us about both the plants and their care. Vicki is very easy to work with, is creative, a good communicator, has a wonderful design sense and is very efficient and timely. We like the outcome very much and would hire DVA Consulting and Design again.

Vicky came highly recommended by our good friends in Rockridge/Piedmont. Besides her exceptional talent of turning gardens into green paradise, Vicky is very pleasant and professional to work with. We have worked with many landscaping professionals in the past and we have to confess: Vicky is simply the BEST. She will be our landscaper for life. Thank you Vicky for your wonderful work for our front patio yard. Those succulent containers look amazing! We love you!

Vicki listened to me and offered choices in design and planting to create a garden that embodies my esthetics, values, and purpose. I wanted a beautiful, diverse organic garden, easy to maintain with a place to grow vegetables. And that is what I got! She and her crew were always on time, respectful, and fun to have around. Her work was museum quality, and her plant and landscape knowledge encyclopedic. - Sally

Vicky has presented & completed several projects for my garden in the last several years. She is a great communicator, has great ideas & is completely reliable.
