Testimonials

"We've had many positive comments from our neighbors, family and friends. Our designer was in tune with what I wanted as far as style, plants, and overall look and function. I felt that everyone went the extra mile. Just as an example: checking the sprinkler system and protecting it in cold weather; the electrician installing the light sensor and outlet; and the qaulity assurance walk-through. Our appraised value on our house has gone up $15,000 since October 2007- I'm sure because of the landscaping work. Thank you."
Diane Scholl, July 2008

"The landscape crew was one of the most efficient and hard-working crews of our entire construction project. The landscaping was installed in 1-1/2 weeks and made our house a home. Our designer answered questions and helped solve problems in a most timely fashion as well."
Jeff and Janice Hanson, December 2007


"On September 18th, 2003, my house burned down due to an electrical fire. My whole neighborhood helped me rebuild my dream house and all I had to do was finish the backyard. It sat in this state since I ran out of money. On November 20th, 2007, twenty of the finest and strongest people from Designs By Sundown showed up in the early morning hours. By 2:00, my yard had been transformed. Designs By Sundown is a great company. Their sensitive and artful approach coupled with their generosity in giving us this Sacred Sanctuary is rare in the world in which we live. This is a company that gives to its community in thoughtful, quiet, and humble ways. I can only offer my complete and unconditional support of Designs By Sundown from concept to maintenance; they're the finest, most professional 'from the heart' company any person could want in building the landscape of their dreams. From first meeting to the realized dream, Designs By Sundown offers a personable quality, complete professionalism, and lasting beauty for any landscaping needs."
— Lou Malandra, December 2007 (condensed from a thank you note written by Lou for a community outreach project in Littleton, CO.)


"The Delores Project is lucky to have developed a partnership with Designs By Sundown to help us with landscaping the grounds of our new building. As a privately funded overnight shelter for women, The Delores Project operates on a very tight budget. We received many generous donations for the construction of our building, but our budget had no room for landscaping. In stepped Designs By Sundown. With your enthusiastic and generous support of materials and labor, you have helped create a welcoming and comfortable environment for women who come to us in crisis and fear.

Thank you and the Designs By Sundown team who gave many hours of free time to work on this project. You have made a difference for hundreds of women in need.!"
Terrell A. W. Curtis, Executive Director, The Delores Project, December 2007

Cynthia Camp, May 2007


"Designs By Sundown is a first rate / professionally run company - thanks. Good to see the follow through - not enough companies are good at this in our industry."

“Designs By Sundown continuously exceeded our expectations as we worked together to repair and redesign the pond in the Japanese Garden at Denver Botanic Gardens. Their design engineering expertise is exceptional. They are a highly professional organization and their attention to detail and quality makes them leaders in the field of landscape design."
— John Scully, Chief Executive Officer, Denver Botanic Gardens, May 2006

“Designs By Sundown was the most professional company we have worked with on our new house. The crew arrived early and worked hard all day. Those who scheduled appointments arrived on time and were always very courteous.”
— Kristen Anderson, May 2006


"Thank you for your hard work and dedication toward completion of our new landscaping. Your commitment to quality and service is greatly appreciated and reflects greatly upon First Bank. Thanks.
— Laura Romero, Assistant Vice President, 1st Bank


“Designs By Sundown recently completed a landscape project for my wife and I at our home. We could not be more pleased with the project. Having selected a short list of three firms to interview, your designer was the first to come to our home. We were so comfortable and confident with our designer that we cancelled the other two appointments.

As with all construction projects, there were issues that emerged and unexpected problems to solve. Your team acted with complete professionalism throughout. Without exception, every person associated with your firm, from the site workers to the follow up people, were first class in every way.

You have something quite special that is going on with the people you have. I know that such teams do not perform like they do and exhibit the class that they have without great leadership from you. Thank you.”
— Dr. Rick Barger, December 2005


"I have been doing business with your firm for several years now and would like to take this opportunity to let you know how pleased I have been with the quality of your products and the employees that you employ. I have homes in the Cherry Hills and Preserve areas and Designs By Sundown have maintained them both. The firm performs work for me year-round."

"I am particular and am careful with who I do business. I have lived in Denver over 30 years and am well acquainted with different landscape companies. I know that a prospect often times is treated differently than a client. Your firm has been consistent with their attitude toward my business."

"I always feel comfortable and can be guaranteed that if I have scheduled Designs By Sundown to do work at one of my homes, that I can be assured the job will be done to my satisfaction. Thank you for a job well done."
— Terry Bannick, April 2005


“Designs By Sundown designed and installed the landscape for our home with the highest degree of skill and professionalism. Our grand water features, swimming pool, and tennis court are accented by hundreds of colorful perennials as well as an abundance of deciduous and pine trees to provide us a country club setting in the foothills. The installation crew was efficient and professional and the service follow-up has been knowledgeable and dependable.”
— Richard Long, February 2004


“Not only did the project exceed our expectations but the professionalism shown throughout the project by all representatives of the company deserves commending as well. The fabulous water feature and overall design are enjoyed not only by us but the neighborhood and our community. The construction and follow-up services have all been conducted in a manner which will surely cause us to use Designs again.”
— Mike Underwood, January 2004


“Last spring and summer, we contacted at least a half dozen landscaping companies ranging from one-man shops to large companies hoping to find someone with ideas compatible with our needs and the capability to carry out the job. We did not want a run-of-the-mill job or an ordinary look either. Your company was the final one we talked with and to our pleasant surprise, was the only one we found that had both the capability and the imagination. After seeing several completed jobs in nearby Castle Pines, we wondered if your company would even want to bother with our measly little suburban lot."

"When the job commenced last summer, we were amazed from the get-go at the scale of the operation and how quickly things changed. It was truly an industrial-strength operation. Even though some days were crammed with equipment in our little backyard, we never felt ignored as each piece fell into place. Designs by Sundown is an extraordinary company. Each person we met was friendly and seemed genuinely interested in our job. Not only that, you continue to follow-up even after being paid, which is not the usual process nowadays. We love our landscaped yard and will continue to add to it and enjoy it for the years to come. The design was bold and a formidable transformation of our lot, for which the neighbors have complimented us many times, and hopefully will add much value to our property as the years go by.”
— Ray Whiting & Debbie Miller, January 2004


"Designs By Sundown has set a new standard of professionalism and performance. Members of Designs By Sundown’s staff have consistently operated at an extraordinarily high level in the areas of customer service, responsiveness to changes, interfacing with other subcontractors in the field, and quality of construction and workmanship."

"Key personnel from Designs By Sundown have initiated and engaged in valuable dialogue with both the owner and the General Contractor to improve the project. When changes were required, Designs By Sundown offered a multitude of positive, forward-thinking suggestions. Deft handling of difficult and challenging situations has been a trademark of Designs By Sundown. This has been accomplished because there has always been very open, frank, and constructive channels of communication between the owners, architects and builders. I would feel comfortable referring Designs by Sundown to anyone and would rate them superior to any other landscape firms that I have ever done business with."
— Edward Diamond, Diamond Homes, Inc. - February 2004
