Black Mountain Landscape Design

Glen helped design the re-​do of our front and side yards. He listened to our specific desires and created a design that fits our surroundings. His positive personality and professionalism made it a joy to work with him. Most importantly, the yard looks great, we are saving $$ on lower maintenance and water usage. We highly recommend Glen to everyone.

I had a wonderful experience working with Glenn. He is very receptive to his client’s
own ideas and is always professional and caring. As a person who is a novice in landscaping and plant information, Glenn was extremely helpful in the selection of plants. He is always available for his client’s questions and is on-​site for plant staging and help through the construction phase. He works diligently to make sure his client is happy with the final product and I can state the final produc was and is beautiful. I have received numerous compliments on my landscaping including one from the UPS carrier! The landscape contractor who completed the project also mentioned Glenn was very easy to work with which says a great deal about Glenn’s professionalism!

I had a great experience with Glen. He is very experienced, efficient and professional. He was recommended to me by one contractor and he certainly did not disappoint me. Would highly recommend him.

I have never written a Unilocal review but I felt the need to have to give one to Glenn and Black Mountain Landscape.
I contacted Glenn with a request to help us with our backyard. We had «good bones», mature trees, good larger plants, retaining wall etc… But we had no color or personality in our yard.
I told him I wanted to surprise my husband for Father’s Day and have the yard planted in one afternoon while he was at work.
I told him all the things we liked, how we lived in the space, how we did not plants that would disrupt our pool or attract bees to the pool area.
He immediately started sending me plant ideas, shopping location suggestions, plant shopping lists and recommendations for if we wanted to do more in the future.
Needless to say my husband was thrilled! It was just something we could not visualize on our own but Glenn and his amazing eye could.
I would recommend to everyone! Kind, timely, educated, fantastic! Thank you Glenn!

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.

When I was looking to have my back yard redone I was skeptical about hiring a professional designer because I wasn’t sure it was worth the time, effort and money. I ended up hiring Glenn because he was extremely professional, very reasonably priced (especially for the amount of time he puts in) and overall just one of the nicest people you’ll ever meet. Now that the job is done, I am so glad that I hired him because he brought so much knowledge to the table and really helped me think though how we use the space in our yard and how each decision would benefit my family. I never felt rushed through the process and he was always happy to consider the (many) changes I suggested along the way. The result was a great team effort and the installer (Brandan Ryel from Ryel Landscapes) did a beautiful job bringing Glenn’s design to life. Highly highly highly recommend.
