Garden Designers in Capay

“We were looking for a landscape designer that would take our ideas and also offer suggestions for a complete front yard landscape design. From the first time communicating with Anthony and setting up initial meeting at our home he was very informative, prompt and thorough. After that meeting we decided to move forward with Anthony and start the design in which he explained in detail how the process with go. He had many suggestions as we did before we finally decided on a final drawing. If your looking a landscape designer that has great attention to detail, reasonable and follows through than give Anthony a call. Our plans were just completed so we are in the process of moving forward and will post pictures in the future Thanks again Anthony”

“From Barren to Buzzing. Our front yard was a total eyesore before LandZen came in, and honestly, it was so embarrassing! As busy family with a young child and both parents working full-time jobs, there just wasn’t enough time or energy to design anything beautiful. But LandZen totally transformed the space – and not just in a pretty way, but in a practical way too. The design they came up with is perfect. They created distinct areas that fit our family’s needs, like the path leading to our little "orchard" where we planted fruit trees. It’s everything we wanted and more! I couldn’t have designed it better myself. I’m especially excited for Spring when our pollinator garden starts to bloom and come to life. It’s going to be amazing! Another huge bonus was the new driveway. They ripped out our old, cracked concrete and put in pavers, which has made such a difference. The driveway is level, smooth, and now we can actually use it for activities with the kids – no more worrying about tripping over cracks! Honestly, LandZen made all our "wishes" come true. We couldn’t be happier with the results, and I can’t wait to see everything come to life as the seasons change!”

“We had moved to Folsom from southern CA, and had just finished building a pool and spa in our large backyard. We knew we wanted to radically improve the way our entire landscape looked and functioned, but didn’t know whom to trust with this responsibility or how to proceed. After running into several dead ends, I ended up attending a presentation by renowned landscape architect Michael Glassman. As soon as he started to speak from the podium, I was captivated by the before and after photos of his past projects. It was clear to me Michael listens carefully to the needs and desires of the homeowners first and foremost and then simply unleashes his considerable creativity to fulfill their goals. I was impressed that he showed projects of all sizes, not just the grandest and most profitable ones. Given Michael’s talents and professional experience, it would be completely understandable for him to avoid dealing with tiny backyards in condo developments and focus only on expansive properties in gated communities. Before Michael and his assistant Jody came to our home for a consultation, one of his staff mentioned in passing that I record everything he says during the visit on my smartphone. This was extremely useful as Michael spewed forth ideas one after another in rapid succession for over an hour, and I would have been completely overwhelmed if I had no opportunity to review everything at my own pace afterward. The architectural plans were beautifully designed and very detailed including 3-D projections which helped us envision everything. Homeowners of course are free to choose any contractor they so desire or even do some or all of the work themselves. Michael provided us with a list of contractors with whom their past clients have been happy and this proved very helpful. Because of Michael’s stellar reputation, each of these contractors know their work has to be done at a very high professional standard. So many people we know have had such bad experiences with their home improvement projects. There are unexpected challenges with every project and ours was no exception, but Michael Glassman and his entire staff were absolutely great to work with in every way. Our friends and family have been very impressed with how wonderfully everything turned out. As for us, we have often said to each other our property is now much more beautiful than we had hoped! We feel very lucky to have had Michael Glassman and his team guide us on our landscape remodeling journey.”
