Kelsey Figone
Jonathan, Flavia and their team did a wonderful job from landscape design to communication to installation and follow up support. They were all easy to work with, made good suggestions and gave us a fabulous backyard. Everything was installed in 5 days. We are excited to spend time in our new yard!

I had a great experience with Jonathan and his crew. They did a full landscape install in the front and side of my house.
It turned out perfect! They completed the job in one day and it’s beautiful. Everything was done following the quote I originally received, they were on-time and responsive through the whole process. Highly recommend!!

Staying on Budget and on Schedule
Budget
An outdoor living space is an investment in your home’s comfort and resale value. When you spread that investment over years of use, the cost becomes minimal compared to the daily value it adds. Whether it’s a $20,000 patio or a $100,000 outdoor kitchen, the key is that it enhances your lifestyle while strengthening your property’s appeal.
Schedule
We set timelines we can meet and communicate clearly about what to expect. Our crews work efficiently and keep the site organized and safe. At the end of each day, we leave your property tidy, and when the project wraps up, the space is clean, finished, and ready for you to enjoy immediately.

Lakewood sits along the base of the Rocky Mountain foothills, west of Denver. The city blends suburban living with quick access to trails, parks, and open space. The local climate brings wide temperature swings and intense sunlight, which makes durable materials and shaded areas smart choices for outdoor living. Nearby parks like Belmar Park and Bear Creek Lake Park show just how connected Lakewood residents are to outdoor life. Well-planned design helps local homes extend that same connection right into the backyard.
