“Diamond Landscaping acquires Christensen Landscape Services”
Christensen did an absolutely beautiful job with the re-do of our front and side landscaping. Donna and her responsive, friendly team were imaginative in their ideas, while still listening for what we wanted as they came up with a plan. They were on time, on budget, and the outcome of what we planned together was exactly what we hoped for. Every worker was professional and friendly, and someone from the team would always respond quickly when we had a question or concern. The project was completed in late spring, and every day since then we have been delighted by the work that was done and how wonderfully it turned out. Thank you so much, Christensen Landscaping, for absolutely nailing it!
Creative design approach matched with skilled installation of hardscapes and perfectly selected plantings.
Great company
I really like to work with Donna Christensen. She always listens to what I want and always tries to present various options in order to give me a range of prices. Christensen Landscape put in a beautiful stone patio, stone wall, stone path, and has done numerous plantings for us over the years.
Christensen Landscape Services came highly recommended by our contractor when we built our new house. They have helped us (and are continuing to help us) with the ongoing project of transforming our site, a neglected rocky ledge with a great view of salt marsh, into an inviting, natural-looking, and sustainable garden spot. Donna handles the plants and Dave handles the hardscape, but of course they collaborate closely. They listen closely to our ideas and objectives, and they translate those ideas into designs that are fresh and imaginative. There seems to be no problem they can't solve: rock ledge, dry shade, invasive plants, and plenty of deer are just a few of the issues they have dealt with successfully on our site. Their team is also experienced and knowledgeable, and everybody has a great work ethic. We use them for ongoing maintenance as well as landscape design and installation.
