"I can highly recommend Gilchrist Group for landscape design help. Sawyer is very professional and easy to work with. He knows what he is doing and offers lower cost alternatives. Prices are reasonable. He removed a wooden deck today and reconfigured an area for the trash bins. I have asked him for design ideas for low maintenance beds we will tackle that next."
