Landscape Architects and Garden Designers in Lunenburg, VA

“A city utility project destroyed a large portion of our existing landscaping; located on a very steep slope along our entire eastern property line. We faced a massive landscaping project which needed to address not only asthetics, but also creative design to limit erosion. Fortunately, Oak Valley had been recommended by friends, and we called Bruce. Our expectations were high, but Oak Valley exceeded them in every respect. Bruce not only drafted a thoughtful and detailed plan, he really listened to us - the design and hardscape/plants we preferred, our ability (limited) as gardeners to care for the project over time, and how we use the space. He also took the time to look at our neighbors' landscaping to be sure ours would fit in - and both neighbors and strangers stop by to say how beautiful it looks. His team was amazing; they were efficient, skilled, very pleasant to work with - and left the site as clean and organized as possible at the end of every day. We had to start the project in the spring on an emergency basis; we couldn't wait for fall planting. There have been torrential downpours and a scorching summer since completion, but the slope holds firm and the landscaping is beautiful. There have been a few plant casualties, but Bruce advised at the outset that we would do a checkup in the fall to update as needed. In the interim, he has patiently and promptly answered every "How do we take care of....?" question, and has stopped by several times to check on the project. Oak Valley turned a mud pit into a unique and beautiful garden, and sudden stress into a very enjoyable experience. Like our friends, we recommend Oak Valley highly.”
