Black Mountain Landscape Design

We used Glenn to redesign both our back and front yards in 2017. I have waited for the plants to grow into the design before writing my review. We are extremely happy with how our outdoor space looks now. The plants are flowering and the front yard looks amazing. The front yard is on drip irrigation and looks a lot better than the grass.Glenn is extremely attentive to his clients, and always available to give help. We had some issues with our contractor for the backyard and Glenn was always available to intercede on our behalf.  I decided to implement Glenn's front yard design myself. He helped me a lot during the process.I am happy to recommend Glenn to anyone. More...

Glenn did a great job, he was very helpful and provided great service.  The only "But"  I have, and why I am not providing 5 stars is that I contracted with one  of his recommended contractors (Hamasaki Landscaping) do the work,  and Hamasaki did not complete all contractual work and honor his plant replacement guarantee,  I paid Hamasaki in full prior to full completion,  shame on on me for thinking that he would complete his "punch list"

I would highly recommend Glenn for your landscaping design needs. We are working with Glenn over a multiple year project since our yard is ginormous and we have to work around renters. We have a 3 tiered garden in our home in La Mesa and we were referred to Glenn by our landscaper. Glenn is easy to work with, creative, resourceful, professional, and very organized. He led us through his design process and was very clear with us upfront on how things would go so we knew what to expect. He has a great eye for what looks good while paying attention to saving water and most importantly, what you want. He has been very helpful through the process.One thing is very important - you should have Glenn and your landscaper meet regularly through the design process so everyone, including yourself, is on the same page. When it comes down to the small and final details, one or two feet makes a big difference and you don't want to overlook those or assume the other parties have it down. We were fortunate because Glenn and our landscaper have been working together for a long time so it worked out well. More...

I am a DIY person and specifically wanted someone to help me with a landscape design for two large planters in the front of my house.  I needed to be able to see what the end result would look like before I did the planting so I had been searching for someone to provide me with a 3D digital plan but not do the installation.  Before finding Glenn, I had only found a few places that would provide a digital design and not want to do the full project mgmt and installation and their prices were way outside of my budget.  Glenn was the perfect fit.  He is very nice and so easy to work with.  His price was very reasonable especially considering how much time he put into the job.  He looked at pictures I sent him and listened to my ideas on what I wanted regarding the overall style I was trying to achieve and came up with plant suggestions for me to look at.  I went through these suggestions and told him which ones I liked and he came up with a digital plan for me to review.  Glenn takes photos of the landscaping area to be done (which in my case was the front of my house with the planters) and then adds the 3D plant images.  The digital plan shows the plants at their full size which is very helpful for placement and selection.  I have two large front windows that I did not want the plants at full growth to block.  I am a visual person and the standard landscaping plans with circles and sketched plants just don't cut it.  The digital plan is awesome!  I saw exactly what the planters would look like with my house in the background.  After I purchased all of the plants, Glenn came and helped me stage them according to the plan to see if any tweaks were needed before I planted them.  I highly recommend using Glenn.
