I absolutely love Exterior Design and Landscapes. Richard, Kris, and crew did an amazing job. They were professional, efficient, and importantly patient with us. We told them what we wanted in our backyard and Richard designed us a beautiful oasis. The whole process beginning to end was simple....no drama for your momma. The crew was meticulous and clean. At the end of each day, the crew cleaned up and were so polite. We didn't have budget issue, because they stuck to it and no hidden fees or unexpected costs. You will never find more knowledgeable landscapers than Exterior Design and Landscapes. When it was time for HOA landscape inspection, the inspector asked who did our landscape because he had never seen a company that sticks to the plan and as detailed as Exterior Design.
