Charles Earl Landscape Architecture LLC
Landscape Architects & Designers in South Dartmouth

Seoane Landscape Design
Landscape Architects & Designers in South Dartmouth
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsDecember 24, 2013
“Seoane Landscape Design was hired to build an outdoor patio, kitchen, fireplace, and water feature in a relatively small outdoor space. They spent a considerable amount of time listening to our ideas and goals for the project before coming up with a elegant design that was both consistent with our vision and within our predetermined budget. We also talked with several other potential contractors but chose Seoane because of their reputation for excellent craftsmanship, ability to meet deadlines, and outstanding customer service. Seoane lived up to their reputation in every way. During the project phase, they were very responsive to questions that arose along the way, coordinated effectively with other involved professionals (plumbing, electrical, irrigation), and maintained an organized, safe work area. When we made a few adjustments to the plan mid project, they happily accommodated, showcasing their extensive knowledge when thinking through the technical implications, and still completed the project on time. They also treated our project as if it was being built for a family member, examining the quality of the work performed each day and making enhancements where needed to ensure it met their high standards. We loved the outcome as well as the experience and would use Seoane again without question. We highly recommend Seoane to anyone looking for an extremely competent, professional, and reliable contractor for their outdoor landscaping or masonry project.”

The Gardeners
Landscape Architects & Designers in South Dartmouth
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsFebruary 2, 2014
“Our experience working with Jason and The Gardeners has been nothing short of outstanding! When we purchased our house, the backyard was wooded and dark, with a small deck and an overgrown and poorly constructed pergola. Jason provided us with a landscaping plan that was beyond our imagination -- and The Gardeners took that vision and made it a reality. Our outdoor space is now the highlight of our home -- complete with an outdoor kitchen and dining area, multi-level bluestone patio, firepit, gunite pool, and poolhouse -- all complimented with beautiful trees and plantings and dramatic lighting. We were especially impressed at Jason's careful planning and selection of plantings -- there is never a time that something new is not blooming providing us with continuous color throughout the seasons! Jason's design has provided us with a space that is not only aesthetically beautiful but also perfectly functional for our family and for our love of outdoor entertaining. Jason is easy to work with, is a great listener and has incredible landscaping knowledge, design sense and attention to detail. Throughout our project, he was always available and responsive, and the work was done in a timely and professional manner. The Gardeners continues to maintain our landscaping, and we couldn't be happier with the results. I highly recommend The Gardeners!”
Mary LeBlanc Landscape Design
Landscape Architects & Designers in South Dartmouth
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsApril 30, 2016
“Our project began three years ago when we decided to meet with landscape architects to remove some trees to get a water view. It was immediately obvious that Mary LeBlanc was the best choice . Her knowledge and vision simplified the process and she always gave us clear direction while considering our input. We were guided through regulatory requirements and specifics to the wildlife sanctuary we call home. She transformed a wooded lot into an oasis of lush plantings, intimate spaces and incorporated design elements to create a landscape that was truly ours. Mary work hand in hand with our landscaping company and conservation officials to make the process seamless and stress free. She was very involved and present for the installation at every stage. We highly recommend Mary for her integrity, honesty, responsiveness, and expertise. I'm proud to be a Mary LaBlanc client!”
Amy Martin Landscape Design

Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsSeptember 12, 2012
“Amy helped us complete our new home by creating a beautiful landscape plan to compliment it. She provided guidance in selecting appropriate plantings, creating the desired aesthetic, adjusting some hardscapes and finally overseeing the install. Amy was professional, creative, flexible and fun to work with. She continues with great service on helping us adapt, maintain, and change the landscaping as the years have passed. We recommend Amy Martin Landscape Design Studio to anyone looking to design a gorgeous, custom yard and garden.”
Dewey Gardens
Landscape Architects & Designers in South Dartmouth
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsSeptember 28, 2016
“Dan Dewey runs his business in a very professional, hands-on manner. Every employee is a pleasure to have working on my property, and if I need to get a message to Dan, I can rely on Dan's people to see that he gets the message. At my home, we have been executing a multi-year plan to fill the beds with plants that are unusual, can with stand harsh Cape winters, and explode with color or interest through out the spring, summer, and fall. I feel that Dewey gardens goes the extra mile to provide personalized service that meets the needs of the client as well as the specialized needs of each property.”
Anjali Joshi Design LLC
Landscape Architects & Designers in South Dartmouth
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsNovember 22, 2013
“Mrs. Anjali had created a unique design for our front yard. She worked diligently with us every step of this project because we did not know what we want, what would be appropriate for our climate zone and our particular location. She was very patient, understanding and kind. We appreciated that! She explained thoroughly the ins and outs of this project. We were particularly impressed with her knowlege of plants and flowers, it was fun to work with her. Our front yard has been outgrowing and was not taken care of for years. Mrs. Anjali turned it into a beautiful shrubs and flower bed. She took out some old bushes and trees, kept our favorite Japanese maple (which one couldn't even see) and incorporated it into her design. And we loved the choice of shrubs and flowers she made! One more thing to add --- she managed to stay on budget! She is a very resourceful designer.”

Patricia Van Buskirk Landscape Architect
Landscape Architects & Designers in South Dartmouth
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsOctober 21, 2014
“HC Design and Tricia Van Buskirk collaborated on the renovation of a beautiful waterfront property in Cohasset with a narrow, sloped lot edged with extensive ledge. Tricia's landscape design and planting plan is simple yet sophisticated, reflecting the client's perfectly. She really blended the exterior details and highlights with the home's elevations and entry points, as well as the interior spaces we had created, for a seamless design inside and out. Tricia was easy to work with from a professional standpoint, and our team created an incredible family home for our clients that is warm, welcoming and sophisticated all at once, with a personality all it's own.”

Professional landscaping anchors a house to the site, connects it with the environment and creates a welcoming entrance to a home. A South Dartmouth landscape architect or designer works with living plants as well as building materials to design for future growth and maintenance as well as the present visual appeal. Landscape architecture is very regional, so look for a landscape designer near me that’s familiar with the local climate and plant types that do well there. Start here to learn more about the landscaping design services in South Dartmouth, MA that will help create your dream garden.

What does a landscape architect do?


The work of this outdoor professional includes most everything surrounding a home's exterior. A landscaping architect can even work with the home architect to choose the right spot for your South Dartmouth, MA house. From there the South Dartmouth landscaper will develop preliminary concepts for your front or backyard design based on individual needs including the climate and activities that will take place, as well as layouts and planting plans. Landscape architects near me will also design any structures or outbuildings that will be added to the space. Any grading changes that will be added to the yard are also the responsibility of the architect. This includes any drainage modifications. An engineer can also be responsible for these tasks, but licensed Massachusetts landscapers are fully capable. Like building architects, they will produce preliminary concept drawings as well as detailed construction documents and planting plans. Three-dimensional renderings and illustrative plans are all supplementary.

What does a landscape designer do?


A South Dartmouth landscaping designer generally will have ecological, aesthetic and technical training, which helps them maximize the potential of your outdoor space. Keeping in mind both style and functionality, garden designers analyze your architecture and yard to produce a professional landscape design plan that may or may not include location and materials for walkways, patios, water features, fences, garden aspects and more. In addition, a landscaper in South Dartmouth, MA will carefully assess your geographic region to choose plants, trees and flowers that will flourish naturally, as well as address concerns such as drainage, screening and soil conditions. Certain landscape designing services only help with the planning portion, while some may deliver the plans and then oversee a hired landscaping contractor. Others — typically following a design-build approach — take care of both the design and all aspects of the landscape architecture and construction.

Before you hire a Massachusetts professional landscaper, consider the scope and emphasis of your outdoor project. Landscape architecture firms typically hire individuals who hold advanced degrees in their field and are trained to develop comprehensive structural plans that include plants, hardscaping, water use, drainage and more. Local landscape designers, also known as landscape planners, typically specialize in the aesthetic and horticultural, rather than structural, side of yard and garden planning. They might or might not have advanced training. Even within their fields, backyard designers near me may specialize in hardscape- or vegetation-focused designs. In some cases you might need to hire additional help to get the outdoor space you want.

Questions to ask prospective landscapers in South Dartmouth, MA:


  • Can you provide me with references?
  • How long have you been in the landscaping business?
  • What is your certification?
  • Do you have liability insurance?
  • How much do you charge, and what does that include?
  • What regions and climates are you skilled in?
  • Can you accommodate my special requests (such as ADA or LEED)?
  • What types of renderings will you produce?
  • What is your experience with similar projects?
  • When can you complete this project?
  • What do your services include?
  • Who will be working on the project design?
  • What happens when costs exceed budget, whether due to materials or labor pricing changes? What about changes made by the client or by the professionals — what kinds of situations would cause those costs to be incurred?
  • Can you provide me with a written estimate?
  • What will I need to provide?
  • Are there any important considerations or concerns that you know of or that might come up in the future with this project?
