HARRIS DESIGN | Homes, Landscapes & Interiors
Landscape Architects & Contractors in Charlottesville.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars2 February 2021
“I hired Steve to design and install the entry gardens to our house. The location was a fairly steep slope that was difficult to mow, and in full sun. I wanted year-round interest, but not requiring frequent planting or tending. With a combination of hollies, nandinas, barberries and several focal point trees, my entry gardens look great all year. Steve oversaw the tilling of yards of compost to improve water retention and enrich the existing soil. Plants were carefully set out according to his plans and have blended into a harmonious tapestry. As a long time gardener, I was impressed with Steve's knowledge of plant material and the way he combined it. He is easy to work with and has an artistic eye. I would highly recommend his services.”

Sunny Pond LLC
Landscape Architects & Contractors in Charlottesville.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars21 December 2014
“We have been very pleased with the gardening plans that Sunny Pond has developed for our property. We have used Richard's expertise in two areas of our property, our driveway entrance and a side bed across from our pond. We have a rural setting and wanted to plant beds to enhance our natural environment versus a formal garden. Richard drew up a unique plan and color coded the plant drawings so we could envision how the beds would appear throughout the seasons providing continual color. The work is guaranteed replanting shrubs that did not survive the first year. We highly recommend Sunny Pond.”

Mr. Josh Schaaf is as talented, experienced, professional, and courteous as any landscape architect in the entire Metro DC region. There is a reason that highly-respected pool companies in the area use him for all of their projects. From comprehensive surveys, to hand-colored designs, to 3D renderings, Josh has all of the skills and ability. Josh and his team are sincere, genuine, and ethical.

Oak Valley Landscape & Hardscape, LLC
Landscape Architects & Contractors in Charlottesville.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars11 September 2016
“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.”
Outdoor Lifestyles Landscape LLC
Landscape Architects & Contractors in Charlottesville.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars14 March 2014
“I used Outdoor Lifestyles Landscape LLC to install a brick paver patio, as well as replace my old deck boards with Trex composite material. They did a fabulous job and I highly recommend dealing with Bill Siewert. You can tell he's been in the industry for a long time and he really knows the business. We recently had a severe storm with damaging winds and I had a tree fall against my house and into my yard. Upon falling, it destroyed several landscape features in my yard and I again called Outdoor Lifestyle Landscapes. Bill Siewert returned my phone call within 20 minutes, scheduled a time to assess the damage the very next day and provided a very detailed and comprehensive estimate within an hour. The repair installation was scheduled within a reasonable time frame and the crew was courteous and respectful of my property. They cleaned up after themselves better than any other contractor I've had to date. I'd highly recommend their service!”
Champ Lawson Landscaping
Landscape Architects & Contractors in Charlottesville.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars4 March 2015
“We have been using Champ Lawson Landscaping since he first opened his business. He has plowed snow from our driveway on many occasions, put in a French drain, and clears our leaves in the fall. He always does a professional job at fair and reasonable prices. He has never missed a deadline and is always here when he says he will be. I wouldn't hire anyone else for our landscaping needs! Every time it snows here I get calls from the neighbors asking who to call for driveway clearing and I always refer them to Champ. He is active in the community and donated mulch and labor to beautify our local volunteer fire company!”

“Mr. Harris came when he promised and widened and resurfaced (asphalt) my driveway. The job was finished on time, and he even added berms on both sides when he realized that there might be a drainage problem. Both he and his crew were professional and cleaned up completely. Nice job!”
