Devonshire upgraded our back yard that is entered from under a back deck. Everything is new except the tree on the left, the largest tree at the fence and the large bush near the center. Irrigation, lighting and steel banded round patios are also new. The steel bands also define the walkways and river rock "moat" that captures rain that falls from the deck for a waterfall effect. The layout, drainage, irrigation and lighting was all done as part of the design. We couldn't be happier. The team was easy to work with and the few modifications (such as type of stone on the walkways) were easy to modify on the fly. Access to the area is restricted by a designer metal fence and ramp that made removal and delivery of materials difficult, but Devonshire was super careful not to do damage to the special paint job. We really enjoyed working with the entire team and now use them for upkeep of this and the front yard of the house.
2026-03-10: After using Devonshire for upkeep of the garden for a year, I have to say that they did not do that great of a job. It was described as a full service, not just pulling weeds and rather doing everything required to keep up the garden looking great. It turned out to be basically pulling weeds and not really knowing what to do beyond that. They also serviced the front yard, but did a pretty unprofessional job of trimming hedges, and needed directions of what to do when they arrived, which did not work well when we were not home! They also did not do a winter cleanup in the front, which left us with a lot of work to do ourselves. I deducted two stars from my original review due to these issues resulting in only three stars overall after I had given them five stars for the installation of the garden.

Fred, thank you very much for the kind review of our work. It was a pleasure to bring the backyard under control and know that this is a very low maintenance set of outdoor spaces now. Thank you too for the feedback on the care the team took around your custom metal railing; we strive to be conscientiousness of our clients homes and treat them as we would our own.
