David Fowler Designs

We had to relandscape our entire lot as part of our rebuild after the 2017 fires. Dave was exceptionally patient in considering our vision and helping to make it a reality. His prices are very fair, he shows up on time, and gets the work done. In fact, Dave and his team were the most punctual and hardworking of any that we worked with during the entire 3 year rebuild process. We'd use Dave again in a heartbeat and recommend him strongly for anyone looking for an excellent, high integrity landscaper.

Incredible job by David Fowler and his team of professionals. David designed and executed a world class front yard, and backyard landscape architecture for our more than .5 acre lot. You may count on David's attention to detail, responsiveness, and competency every step of the way. In our view, David Fowler Designs has no peer in the industry; he DELIVERS on every detail, and does so in the most professional manner. David delivers exceptional value, backs his work, and is a pleasure to work with. Absolutely superior performance at every turn! Thanks David and Team, EPIC job!

We just finished Phase 1 of our backyard, with David's expertise and team, and could not be more thrilled with how it turned out. For years, we have felt overwhelmed with what to do so we contacted David, at a friend's recommendation, and he helped us come up with a plan. We gave him our wishlist of all the things we wanted to incorporate into our backyard and he put together a plan of how to make the best use of the space and get us the oasis we've always wanted. He was incredibly responsive and communicative and his team was punctual. The project was finished on time and on budget and we can't wait to tackle the next part in spring next year.

We worked with Dave and his crews on landscaping and hardscaping our newly constructed home. Dave was very attentive, his crews were great and timely. They did irrigation, planting, brick work, cement work, low voltage lighting and fencing. Dave was here daily during the work and followed up with us after all was completed. He answered question on a timely basis. Dave & company made us look great in 2020 and we still look great in 2021!

We worked with David this spring on a backyard landscaping project and had a great experience with David and his crew. He was communicative, quick to respond to our questions and requests, and reliable. The workmanship was outstanding and David’s plans helped us imagine things for our yard we didn’t even know we wanted, but we’re glad to incorporate. We got the exact backyard we asked for and couldn’t be happier.

David Fowler did a major yard transformation for us when we moved into our new home. This included building decks to expand the outdoor living space around our pool, building planting beds and creating a garden area, building decorative natural stone walls in the front of our home, and replanting an expansive hillside overlooking our street. David and his crew did a fantastic job designing each element of the job and working with us around specific design decisions. He was extremely easy to work with and was able to accommodate our specific needs around wheelchair accessibility in our backyard. His crew did meticulous work on our stone walls and seamlessly tied our new deck into our existing concrete (without steps). Pricing was fair and the work was complete in the time frame quoted. Given the scope of our job, we felt the completed work was well worth what we paid. David also came up with a few creative and cost-saving solutions for the rare but, inevitable challenges that came up during the course of the projects. We have received numerous compliments on the project including some who then hired David for their landscaping.

We looked at 7 different landscape architects before deciding to work with David Fowler. From our first conversation about concepts to installing the final touches, we always felt that David was thoughtful and a great listener. With design and construction projects these days, it is hard to find someone who is responsive and focused on your project. David was always reasonable about his estimates for timing and budget and delivered the project on time. He was even able to navigate through some differences of opinions (on our side) to come up with a good solution that worked for everyone. Now our yard looks gorgeous and it is also very easy to maintain and host guests (two of our primary goals). We put in a pool, lots of hard scaping, a bocce ball court, and outdoor fire pit. If we had another project we would gladly hire him again - without any hesitation.

Working with David was the best decision we made while redesigning and remodeling both our front and back yards. He is not only a talented designer, but he is an excellent problem-solver and offers the best customer service of anyone we have worked with. He essentially coordinated our entire outdoor project, keeping other builders on track and moving forward, and he did it all with such a positive and pleasant attitude. We are thrilled with the outcome of our yard and absolutely recommend David to anyone looking for a talented designer who is responsive, collaborative, and easy to work with.

David Fowler is the intersection of art, design, engineering and customer service. Our entire yard was an eyesore. Except for a few oaks we had scrub, weeds and rocks. Our wish list was a fire pit, putting green, irrigation and lighting. We had worked with another landscaper for months. We were told that a fire pit was impossible. Also, because of existing stone work some areas could not have irrigation or lighting. The plan they gave us was uninspired and considerably over budget. We contacted David. What a wonderful experience! He produced a plan that was beyond our expectations. Fire pit, irrigation and lighting no problem. Also, a beautiful curved stone stairway to the fire pit and a custom iron gate and guardrail that are works of art. Beautiful plantings and an irrigation system so efficient there has been only a minimal rise in our water bill. We have had several neighbors comment that the lighting is “breathtaking”. David and his crew could not have been more accommodating or professional. And, the entire project was on budget! We enthusiastically recommend David for any landscaping needs. Carol and Ralph Wade

We can't say enough about David and his crew. David took our 'yard' from a disaster of dirt, weeds, and dead grass to the oasis we had always dreamed about. From our first communication, we were immediately impressed with David. Throughout the process he was friendly and professional, responding to emails in a timely manner and addressing any thoughts or concerns we had. David also followed through on everything he said he'd do and was very responsive to our needs and requests during the process. When we hired David, we had rough plans from a landscape designer, but David used his expertise to really improve upon it in a number of ways and help it come to life. David has an excellent eye for design and was really able to visualize our yard and make some helpful recommendations during the design phase of the project. Our project was a large one (including gardens, new trees and plants, three fences, a deck, sail shades, gravel walkways, lights, irrigation, and a gas fire pit) and yet the work moved along at an impressive pace and finished on schedule. We shouldn't have to point this out, but in our experience this is the exception and certainly not the norm. Like David, his crew was professional and worked incredibly hard. Our project was finished in the fall and almost every day we look at our yard and remark to one another how much we love it. Lastly, David is a genuinely nice guy. He is super pleasant to be around and is clearly devoted to his craft. We can't recommend him strongly enough!

I would highly recommend David Fowler for any Landscape project. His professionalism and details far surpass anything I could’ve ever imagine for our yard, his ideas combined with ours gave us our dream yard and we are so very grateful. Our backyard was transformed from a big pile of dirt to this beautiful area for us to eat and entertain our guest with a beautiful Pergola and plants ! I highly recommend David !

Dave is a great designer and very easy to work with. He listened to our desires for our backyard, formulated a great plan and helped us navigate the approval with our HOA and city. He has a great aesthetic sense that maximized the functionality of our backyard and recommended custom features that made our backyard really standout. Highly recommend Dave and his services without reservation.
