The fine folks at City Garden Company were an absolute pleasure to deal with in every aspect. Danielle in the office was amenable and patient. She was on top of every detail, and had excellent communication with us every step of the way. In the design process, Patrick worked with us to reimagine our backyard. He was very creative and collaborative. He came up with a perfect plan for us. The install was prompt and went quick. Throughout the process, Patrick was very hands on, going above and beyond. His landscape crew is top notch! And for the deck, he brought on Ric Rodriguez at Portico South. He built a spectacular deck, adding some well designed touches. We could not be happier. It’s like they added an entire addition to our home. It’s now our favorite place to hang out. And lends itself to entertaining friends. Thank you so much!!

We are very pleased with the City Garden Company services, their staff and team workers. They have created a fantastic design plan for hardscaping our backyard and have executed everything in the most professional way, meeting 100% our expectations. The result is very impressive. They have truly transformed the look of our backyard with a perfect hardscape to use a very sloped/ difficult terrain, as well as solving our drainage issues. They installed a beautiful and inviting gravel path with large slate steps alongside of the house and around the deck. They have also built a very substantial feature – the wonderful retention wall with boulders in the slope by the deck, and from down there, they created 2 spacious retained flattened areas, covered with gravels for a veggie garden and fire pit area. We are so happy to have it done, and we would highly recommend City Garden Landscaping and hardscaping services.

Patrick and his team have created the back yard of my dreams. Patrick took his time to make sure he captured my vision in his design. Patrick’s team worked hard to complete the project on time and showed top notch professionalism. I have referred City Garden company to many friends and neighbors.

From our first meeting with Patrick Bell of City Garden Co, we were hooked. His team completely transformed our rather decrepit backyard into a garden oasis. The granite and bluestone hardscaping is impeccably finished, and the choice of plantings seems perfect – in all seasons – for a space that has both sunny spots and fully shaded areas. Patrick expertly addressed some significant drainage issues on our property, fortifying a storm drain that now prevents the flooding to which we were accustomed during heavy rains. His team also managed to excavate a large area with a 2 foot change in elevation, creating a beautiful stone patio that now extends seamlessly to the feature lawn beyond. City Garden Co created a stunning space that is now the envy of our friends and neighbors. Bravo!

From design to installation, City Garden Company was a delight to work with. They were prompt and professional the entire time. Patrick was very accommodating even when I asked him for several last minute changes to our plan. City Garden Company also tidied up our property each day before leaving so as not to be an eyesore to others in our neighborhood. We cannot wait for our yard to explode in color next Spring! We highly recommend them. Cliff & Debbie

Stop hunting now and just give City Garden a call. These are a group of wonderful people and professionals at their craft. They made a wildly complex project go as smoothly as possible, despite all the challenges that come during a large scale property makeover. From the master design to the installation, these folks covered it all, and the results are stunning. I actually miss them now that the project is complete. We wholeheartedly encourage you to give City Garden your business if you are looking for help designing and installing your dream landscape.

Project involved landscaping plan that included regrading of property to address drainage issues; and addition of new parking pad, retaining wall, sod, irrigation system, landscape lighting, two porch/entryways, and multiple plantings. First, I was impressed and grateful for the proactive communication I received concerning all aspect of the project, particularly milestone timing and impacts of supply issues. I am so pleased with the finished product especially Patrick’s creativity as he incorporated “mid-vision” requests.

City Garden transformed our front and back yards. From the design and planning until the final plant was placed in the ground Patrick and his team were easy to work with. They listened to is and turned our wish list into a reality beyond our expectations. Patrick is practical and came up with alternative solutions to some of our challenges that were more affordable than what was originally planned. We are thrilled with the end result!

We met with several landscape companies over the course of about 4 months (most of which we found on Yelp). Either they never got back to us, wanted to sell us a big, expensive “plan,” or had never heard of our neighborhood, blah blah blah. For this reason, I kept branching out beyond our area on various sites until I found myself searching in Athens. That’s how we found Patrick and City Garden Company. We could tell right away he knew what we wanted, knew how to construct it, and had great ideas. He listened to our vision, which was fairly simple–a large, gravel patio, stepping stones, and sod. He came up with the idea of using dry-stacked stone as the border, and we couldn’t be happier. I asked him if it would fall over eventually, and he said “not if I build it.” I believe it, too–it’s classy, sturdy, and coordinates with our stepping stones and the stone on the front of our house. He and his team were very precise, and measured everything out so that it’s even, with nice clean lines. A very professional job. We really do love it, and stand in the window and stare at it because our yard is transformed. We are thrilled we found this company! They actually follow up, call you back, answer your emails, etc., which is kind of a rarity in the home improvement businesses, I’m afraid. I can’t wait to recommend them to friends. They work all over the place, including Decatur, Athens, Lake Hartwell, etc.
