Reviews of Creative By Design Landscaping (Architect)

Erick Noriega

We hired Creative by Design Landscaping to redevelop our backyard in late Spring of 2017. We needed to fix drainage issues, tear out a rotting patio and manage multiple levels of a very sloped yard. When we met Phil for the initial consultation we were impressed with his attention to detail and quality and how much he cared about doing a quality job that looks great. It was clear he took a lot of pride in his work. Phil helped us take our vision and make it into reality including stonework, curved garden beds, space for a vegetable garden, irrigation and lighting. He guided us toward practical decisions and was always transparent about cost. It was easy to work with Phil throughout the project – he was very respectful of our yard and space, communicated openly and was patient with our many questions. The work is excellent and looks outstanding. I am in awe of the attention to detail that Phil gave our project. I would hire Creative By Design again in an instant and will recommend them to anyone who asks.

We recently had Creative By Design landscaping install a deck for us in our back yard. Their quote was very affordable and workmanship was fantastic. We decided to add lights into our deck and they turned out as well as we had hoped, they are very accommodating with additions and extras. Creative By Design is a very professional company and we won't be using anyone else.

Phil did a spring lawn cleanup last week which included dethatching, grass cutting & a great deal of raking. He did a very thorough job as he went over the lawn twice with the dethatcher to remove all the moss. We were very pleased with the quality of his work & would not hesitate to hire Phil & Creative by Design Landscaping in the future. Brenda & Ernie

I can't say enough positive things about "Creative by Design Landscaping" owned and operated by Phil Colenutt. Landscaping was creative and artistic. Quotes were fair and stuck to. As well as a hard worker and reliable his communication skills were excellent so you knew exactly what was happening. Halfway through the project I had hired him to do I added another. No problem! I would and have already recommended "Creative by Design Landscaping" to anyone. Thanks Phil for a job well done.

We had been through a horrific house building process that left us with extreme distrust for contractors and tradesmen. However, we still needed to complete our extensive landscaping. Due to our previous experiences, we felt jaded and skeptical about hiring someone to complete the job. We cautiously interviewed many companies before meeting Phil from Creative by Design Landscaping. Meeting Phil was simply refreshing, he was honest, knowledgeable and had competitive rates. After hiring him, we came to understand what a hardworking, trustworthy and caring person he is. Our job was very complex as there were many elevation changes. Our vision on how we wanted to finished project to look and Phil offered ideas and suggestions along with drawings on how we could bring our ideas to life. As the work progressed we added elements that Creative By Design Landscaping approached and executed with expertise including Stonework, concrete stairs, implementing a full irrigation system, lighting, fencing, as well as picking out and planting flowers plants and trees. Phil take great pride in putting in the time to do a meticulous job. We are extremely happy with the final result and have received many compliments on our beautiful yard. It was a true pleasure, working with Creative by Design and we can't recommend them highly enough.
