Los Angeles, CA Patio Design Professionals

“Can't recommend Kitchen Door more highly! Whatever your landscaping needs, they're professional, high quality, beautiful, and well worth the price. It was important to us to have a natural design with native and edible plants that didn't need much water. From concept to design to install, it was a truly enjoyable process. They specialize in edible landscaping (hence Kitchen Door!), but can do anything.”

“I heard about Royal Construction from a friend. I was looking for a good reliable contractor since I’ve been burned in the past. If you do decide to go with Royal, ask for Isaac. He is super professional and he helped make my kitchen project fun. I got assigned with one of their designers who helped me create my dream kitchen, and then they actually built it just like I saw it in the 3D design. Great communication, great prices and great products!”

“How did all of this begin? We had a (very) old fence that was falling down and had to be replaced. Since there was a lot of vegetation growing on the fence, everything was removed at the same time. We now had a fresh start. Now what? We did some window shopping at several local nurseries. While we found items we liked, we weren’t sure how to put them together. Our area is a side raised bed only about 3 feet wide, but 70 long, plus an area in the front of the house. Many nurseries offer design services, so we decided to pay a little to get a "professional" design. We did get a home visit and a design, but were much underwhelmed, and were not comfortable going with it. Bingo, let’s look for a real pro! We found and spoke to several local designers. One of them thought that our project was a bit too small for her business and recommended Wendy, so we set up an appointment. We all three liked each other and verbally created a broad concept. Wendy sent us on more nursery recon. Together we came up with the long list of possible plants that we liked and might work together. Using the great image resources online we were able to cull the list down to about a dozen varieties. Wendy then did a CAD design, which we all reviewed on paper. Wow, it really looked like a great garden we could visualize. She added some cool touches like boulders; several espalier arrangements and a modern dripper system. Now we were really excited about the potential. As a major part of the service, she acquired all of the plants and materials and hired a team to do the physical work of planting and installing. All we had to do was take delivery and watch the creation unfold. We got lucky in that we installed in early February, during a rainy season here in LA. The plants and we all loved the rain. We’re about 6 weeks in now, and all looks great. We’re only doing a few additions and trimming. Wendy did a great design and implementation, but way beyond that, just enough hand-holding to make this a comfortable project for us. We got the desired effect that we wanted and that will require a minimum of care going forward. It’s actually fun to work on it and watch the growth each week. Go Wendy!”

“We moved into our first new house last year, and Flores has been helping us bring out its old Hollywood charm since that very first summer. They were the only company willing to rise to a very specific challenge: the previous homeowner had planted yards and yards of bamboo. It was an eyesore, and impossible for me to dig out. Flores got my front and backyard completely cleared of this nuisance. They reset the brick in my courtyard, pruned all of my trees, and corrected the grading around the house for runoff. They did this work super fast and at a fair price. Since then, I've brought them back several times since for all sorts of projects. Flores has built a gorgeous custom fence for my backyard, brought my orange tree back to good health, and installed a gorgeous lawn, garden gate, and stone patio. They took care to make sure that my dogs would be safe and secure with the fencing, made excellent suggestions about water wise plants and design, and checked in with us at every milestone to make sure we were happy, and make cost saving and design suggestions. Just an amazing and kind crew. I recommend them highly!”

“Roy Altaras Landscape Design and Construction designed, planted and has maintained my garden for 12 years. They are knowledgeable professional gardeners with a refined esthetic sense. They know how to select plants that are right for the climate and season and which will create a low-maintenance, lovely Mediterranean feeling garden. Roy is friendly, polite, thoughtful and very responsive to requests. It's a pleasure to work with them.”

“Alicia is the best at styling and designing! She has helped us create several beautiful pots and holiday displays in the last year, and knows just how to tweak things to make them their absolute juiciest and most beautiful. We are lucky to work with her!”

“I had a great experience with Jacob the owner of 4 Seasons Remodeling. it all started with an initial meeting about my kitchen and dining room remodeling. the kitchen needed to be fully remodeled and the dining room needed to be painted, installed new wood floor and install new reassessed lighting around the ceiling. Jacob came over, and seat with us trying to understand what we are looking to get and to be able to give us the best estimate he could. i liked the fact that i didn't feel forced to sign any contract and jacob wanted me to see the estimate and the design of the kitchen that he will do for us. during the work, jacob's workers came over each day and jacob visited us at least 2 times a week and when a major step was about to be completed.”

“Danny Deck built a 400 sq foot deck around my above ground hottub. I gave him my designs from Sketchup, he mad some suggestions based on his expertise and built it almost exactly to spec. The realities of construction forced a few small changes in the dimensions of the details but overall, it looks like the Sketchup plan. The suggestion to use Kayu Batu instead of IPE was the right one, the color of the Kayu Batu was exactly what I wanted. Thank you Danny Deck !”

“We wanted a change to our rather pedestrian front lawn. We were recommended to Urban Oasis by a satisfied friend. Essentially, we wanted a grassless front lawn with herbs - drought resistant plants - rocks and gravel artistically placed with some color highlights and an overall feeling of serenity. We reviewed some lawns that we liked and Urban Oasis came up with a unique design that met our needs but was cost effective. Debbie G. submitted drawings and estimates. Her crews were superb. She worked right along with the gardeners and supervised the tree trimmers, etc., Project came in under estimate..”

“Lauri and her team are OUTSTANDING! We asked Lauri to design and completely redo our backyard and challenging steep hill behind our home, the seemingly impossible...to us, at least. What we have now is an incredibly beautiful, lush, fragrant terraced outdoor space with plenty of places to sit and enjoy the views. It’s a haven for us, our grandkids and friends, and it’s always buzzing with life: so many hummingbirds, honey bees, butterflies! It’s been less than a year since completion and all the plants are already huge and vibrant, and there has been constant blooming all year. I can’t say enough about Lauri and her team. They are exceptional: expert, hardworking, professional, respectful of the land and environment, and simply a joy to work with.”
