At Dr. Dan's Landscaping & Architectural Design, we believe that the landscape is an extension of the character of a home. There is no template for a successful design. It requires a trained eye to assess the traits of each unique property and a keen ear to understand the wishes of a client. Together these allow us to discover the sense of place distinctive in every property, and transform this into a compelling and coherent design.
Dr. Dan's understands that implementing a design successfully requires careful supervision of details and an understanding of the overall goal. We strive to provide outstanding customer service, with an emphasis on continuous communication and updates with our clients.

Dr Dan and his crew are amazing! They transformed my dirt farm into a real backyard! From start to finish, they were dedicated to delivering quality workmanship. The crew was so polite, courteous, and clean. They worked around my dogs and children. I will be a customer for life! They installed a drainage system, sod, flowerbeds, borders and gravel. They removed a shed and bushes. 10 stars if I could!

What a breath of fresh air to get a company who performs as they promise and even go above and beyond! We purchased our current home about 1.5 yrs. ago and had to have many repairs done. I was shocked at the unprofessional manor that seems to permeate this industry. I can say beyond a shadow of a doubt, you will be impressed with Dr. Dan and his crew.
They always came when they said they would, they always communicated when they would be here and their time it would take to get the job done. Everyday his crew showed up, they looked happy and wanted to work, wanted to turn the yard into a true piece of outdoor art. We had Dr. Dan fix our drainage issues (done and fixed), build a fire pit (wonderful space) and now he's building a stunning waterfall and pond feature (can't wait to see that magic happen!)). Again, we are so impressed with the quality of service and how much he truly cares that the job is completed with exceptional quality, and that you as the customer are happy with the entire experience.
I can understand now, why his website says In business for 30 years, that type of longevity only happens when you care about your product, you're truthful and honest with your customers, and you have a great team that gets the job done everyday with smiles on their faces and a willingness to go above and beyond! This outfit is top-notch, you won't be disappointed, call them today!. -Rich H. Update: Pictures attached. Beyond our wildest dreams

Dr. Dan and his team built my stamped concrete deck, pergola, and install a drainage system and landscaping. They were exceptional.; especially Chris and Jay, the professionals who built my pergola and did my drainage and landscaping. The deck is impressive too. Their entire team was kind, courtesy, professional, experts in there craft and on time.
From start to finish they kept us informed on what happens next. Any issue we encountered they addressed them immediately. They definitely delivers on what they promised. It was a pleasure to work with them and they kept within the design and budget I had given them. I will use them again in future projects over and over again. You can't beat the quality and craftmanship. Lastly, which you don't find very often, Dr. Dan is a honest and sincere individual. He cares about customer service and the product he delivers to his customers. Don't hesitate to go with Dr. Dan's Landscaping and Design. You won't be disappointed.

We have used Dr. Dan's Landscaping for the past 10 years. They have worked with us to improve our landscape design while getting everything back in shape in preparation for spring. Their work has always been first-rate at a fair price. What has really separates them from other landscapers is the pride and professionalism that Dr. Dan's workers exhibit on a daily basis.
They have routinely gone above and beyond in doing the "little things" as if they were working on their own lawn. While small things, those are things that reflect their professionalism and pride. Dr. Dan's has my highest recommendation for those wanting a professional job, done right, and at a reasonable price.

I had some pretty severe drainage issues around my patio. After attempting to tackle this by myself I quickly realized I was out of my league. Dr. Dan and his team were very responsive and knew exactly how to solve my issues. Consultation/estimate were done very quick and there was no "let me call the other guy" delays. The dry wells and drain fields they made gave my patio a much needed overhaul and have made the space much more enjoyable for my family. 10/10

Having recently moved into a new house I have a lot of projects going on. Thankfully using Dr. Dan allowed me to cross off my landscaping quickly and beautifully. Within a week of contracting, the work was completed efficiently and professionally. The landscaping and fire pit look amazing, and we are thrilled with the results. We have more outdoor projects planned in the future and will 100% be hiring this company again.

5 stars All the way! My wife and I decided to upgrade our backyard with a new stamped concrete patio and our research led us to Dr. Dan's website. Browsing through images of all their successful projects, we automatically knew the quality of their work was fantastic. They came by right away, took measurements, answered all of our questions, and quoted an amazing price for a top of the line, very large stamped concrete patio. Dr. Dan and his staff were extremely professional and courteous throughout the entire process.
Even the equipment they used was impressive. These guys did an amazing job with our project and left my property clean and tidy when they were finished. The honesty and integrity we experienced with this company was priceless. Dr. Dan is one of the most wonderful people I've ever met. He and his wife are very generous and even threw in a free drainage system for us (worth $1500) at no additional charge!
Yes I said no additional charge. Take it from me, I do my research and if it doesn't feel right to me, I won't do business. This company deserves 6 stars. I'll post some pictures to follow up soon. Thanks very much Doc. Awesome work! Marshall S.

Our yard needed help after we had a pool installed, so I called for a landscaping quote. Dr. Dan came out and walked us through potential landscaping options. He offered to help with fence installation too, but we had already paid a major/national company for materials and labor only to find out days later they couldn't deliver on what they promised.
When I told Dan what happened, DR. DAN'S SAVED THE DAY by having his fence contractor, Jay, come out and take care of the installation. Dr. Dan's landscaping crew, led by Chris, did high quality work quickly. Chris consistently checked in to be sure they were meeting our needs and he provided smart, thoughtful suggestions to improve upon our ideas. Dr. Dan's whole crew was professional, responsive, timely, and truly seemed to enjoy their job.
I love the landscaping design and I'm glad I was able to support a local company who delivers what they say they will. I couldn't be happier. They will be my go to team for future work. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Dr. Dan's fixed our sprinkler system, graded & seeded our backyard, and installed dry wells in our backyard to address our drainage issues. Once the backyard was done, I was extremely pleased and impressed by the aesthetic landscaping that was done around our trees to noticeably separate the lawn area and wooded area. Dr. Dan was very responsive to concerns with the sprinkler system not being fixed properly the first time around and even took his time to show my husband how to properly operate the sprinkler system.
He also came back to address the standing water concerns that occurred after the backyard was graded and seeded. His team even added additional seeds in areas that were scarce of new grass. Dr. Dan and his team is very knowledgeable and professional and gets the job done. Just be sure to be patient and understanding of the time frame it takes to get the job done.

Dr Dan's team was extremely professional and responsive from start to finish. I saw all the great reviews so I had to reach out and hope this was as good as everyone else says! Lorraine provided a fair quote for my stamped concrete patio. Between the time I paid the deposit to when they started, communication was beyond my expectations! Multiple letters, calls, texts, etc. never guessing when I'd see or hear from them.
His crew was extremely hardworking and professional! Very polite and they were extremely attentive and detailed-oriented with their craftsmanship. I had one small concern about some spots I saw appear a week later and Dr Dan's crew came out immediately to address it. A true testament that if something does go wrong, Dr Dan will handle it immediately.
I'm actually glad I was able to see how he responds to issues and resolves problems. Dr Dan is personable, friendly and attentive! I can say this experience was one of the most positive I've ever had with these types of home improvements and definitely exceeded my expectations! I'll be hiring him again in the Spring to help with my landscaping! : I'm so happy I hired Dr Dan's! 10/10!

Ours was a rather complex and extensive landscaping and drainage remediation project to our home property involving the installation of four dry wells, the cutting down and total removal of 3 large trees, old lawn and shrub removal, the hauling away of old concrete stepping stones, yard regrading, gravel and stepping stone installation along the side yard, the laying down of new topsoil and mulch/pine straw, the planting of new shrubs, relocating and replanting old plants, grass seeding and fertilization, and final clean-up.
During this time, we also had concrete work (driveway, front porch, new backyard patio) done by another contractor. Throughout it all, effective coordination was maintained between all parties. All contract requirements were met, any adjustments and modifications were smoothly made as needed, and good communication was maintained. Underground utilities were correctly located and properly marked. Dan was onsite often to coordinate all phases of the effort, monitor progress, and ensure work was done efficiently, properly, and to our satisfaction. Chris headed up the landscaping efforts, making sure everything was progressing to our liking, and maintained a cheerful, positive and very helpful attitude throughout.
It was a pleasure working with Chris. All workers were very hard-working, courteous and helpful in explaining what they were doing, the progress of their work, and answering any questions that we had. The office staff was very nice and pleasant to work with over the phone. There were no surprise added costs, and we were very pleased and satisfied with the results and total cost of the effort. It was a big job. I would recommend Dr. Dan's Landscaping to others.

They did an exceptional job on our patio! We met Dan and discussed what we wanted regarding service. Not only were they on time and friendly, but he listened to what we wanted and explained every step along the way. We told Dan, we wanted the patio completed before my mom's birthday that August and he promised he would get it done. His team came in and completed most of the job in ONE DAY! Even though they were booked up, he definitely delivered on his promise. I recommend them for any patio needs you need. They won't disappoint!

We got a brushed concrete patio put in our backyard. Everyone at Dr. Dan's was extremely professional and responsive. The appointment for the estimate happened within days of my calling and Loraine was wonderful for showing us what we wanted and adding in her expertise to make sure we got what would look best. She also worked with us to change some ideas to make sure we got the perfect patio for our house and our needs and our budget. Dr. Dan and the crew walked us through exactly what we could expect before our patio work began and the crews were polite, tidy, and worked quickly, but did a wonderful job! We couldn't be more happy with our experience overall and our new patio! I would definitely recommend to anyone that asks!

This company did not provide the agreed-upon service. I called and asked if they would provide a service where they provide a rough design and list out what solutions need to be implemented, but don't do the install. I wanted the rough design and information so that I could install it myself. I was straightforward and honest about this. I told them several times I simply can not afford to have a 10 thousand dollar install done as I've already got 30k in house repairs for unrelated problems.
I don't have 40k ready for repairs unexpectedly. I told them if it wasn't a service they offer, that is fine. I understand it's a business, not a charity. I informed them I knew the system design/consultation would cost money and could afford several hundred for their services. I wasn't looking to get anything for free. They agreed after running it past the owner.
The owner shows up and provides a 10-12k estimate. I told him I didn't need an estimate. And he responded, "this is just because you're a curious person, and you wanted to have your curiosity answered." I informed him it wasn't. I wanted a rough design to know what kind of dry well's work, if any, if swales, french drains, etc... Had to be done to address the concerns.
I'm not a drainage expert and don't intend to be. We went back and forth a bit with him, telling me the best plan to get a drainage system would be to save my money and have it done professionally. His last information to me was, "You're a smart guy, I'm sure if you keep researching, you will figure it out."
I agreed to pay for their expertise, so I wouldn't have to "figure it out." A lot goes into a successful drainage system.
Soil types, water table depth, local laws, etc... Are all considerations. I recognize this takes knowledge, skill, and experience to get right, which is why I paid for a professional consult. Being told to keep googling and "You'll figure it out" is the same as getting told to fuck off. They probably design good systems. They probably install okay.
The materials are likely the same quality of competitors as almost all contractors use the same suppliers and manufacturers. The issue is how they operate. I can not help but feel they knowingly and intentionally agreed to the consultation but never intended to provide the agreed-upon services. They willfully took advantage of the situation. I guess the questions you need to ask yourself are; Do you want to do business with an opportunistic company willing to take advantage of a situation because they can?
Do you want to support a company that purposefully takes money from a disabled veteran while insulting him, ending the interaction with "Save your money" and "You'll figure it out" when paid for a professional consult? I hope it was worth the 80 dollars for them to needlessly insult and take advantage of a veteran in a financially stressful situation over gas money and breakfast. Hopefully, Dr. Dan feels good about himself, and it was worth his time.
I would've happily paid 300-500 hundred for what I was requesting. I foolishly thought they quoted 80 just to cover time and gas and were providing the info to be kind. I was wrong. Many of their competition simply stated they didn't provide the service I was requesting. They had integrity. Go with a competitor if you value ethics and integrity.

The most professional and kind people!! They came out and gave us a quote and started work about 2 weeks later. Finished the job in one day. The guys were so nice to my talkative 12 year old and very nice to my dog. Just an all around good experience and very reasonably priced. Would HIGHLY recommend Dr. Dans!!!

Dear Dr. Dan's, My wife and I recently chose Dr. Dan's Landscaping to perform some upgrades to our home which included a custom built fence, relocating a hot tub and other landscape jobs that were much needed. I can only say that the service we received from Danny was exceptional and the work performed was of the highest quality.

Dr. Dan's, As always, the yard looks great. I want to thank you and your staff for so many years of fine service. It is with some regret I leave my home of 19 years. But it is with real regret that I leave you and your staff. Perfectionists, I know are hard to deal with, but you guys always weathered my storms.

Dr. Dan''s did some drainage work around our sidewalk and front entrance as well as replacing the sidewalk and part of the driveway. We were so pleased we had him do some work on the front lawn. It did not look as though the front lawn was coming in as we expected, but with patience and watering, it has exceeded our expectations.

Dr. Dan's, Thank you for taking care of my rock refresh so quickly. As always the guys worked hard and were so polite. It looks great and will look better as soon as the trees get rid of their pesky seeds and I got some mulch down. Thank you also for all of the kind words of praise and encouragement abut our pond and yard.
