Home Services reviews in Bethesda, Maryland

Debbie's design is fabulous - a great listener, totally reliable - which produced what we wanted. I'd work with her again without hesitation.

We recently filled in our dilapidated 30-year old in-ground swimming pool and hired Bethesda Garden Design, LLC (BGD) to re-landscape our entire backyard, which was overgrown with ivy and weeds.  Debbie Friedman and Andrea von der Pfordten, BGD’s two principals, produced a creative design in keeping with the character of our house within a few weeks and recommended a local landscape company to handle the project.  After checking the company’s references, we hired the company to handle the project and Debbie and Andrea to manage it.  We were very happy with our decision. They managed the entire project, ensured that the landscape was installed according to plan, and provided outstanding oversight and quality control. They explained what they were doing every step of the way and were very responsive to our questions and requests.  The project was a huge success!  We now have three beautiful patios, two large gardens, stunning stone paths, hundreds of plantings, and a beautiful pea gravel path leading to our stone fireplace.  We highly recommend BGD!

Debbie and Andrea did a fantastic job with our very challenging project. Our immense, fifty-year-old stone retaining wall collapsed recently, and we needed advice about what to do next. Debbie and Andrea came up with several inspired options, and we settled on re-grading our yard rather than replacing the wall.

And it came out GREAT. Along with their partners, they implemented the plan to perfection, and for a lot less money than it would have cost to replace the wall itself. We now love our gently sloping lawn, with brand-new grass and lots of beautiful bushes they planted to help with erosion, and to make the place look even better. We couldn't have done it--or even envisioned it--without them!

Debbie and her team at Bethesda Garden Design are amazing! She took our yard and transformed it into an oasis. Her design and follow through were flawless on every level. She was very prompt to answer any questions we had and worked with us to implement our own additions into her design plan. Our yards are now our favorite parts of the house thanks to Debbie. As an added plus, our hydrangeas produced so many flowers that a local florist bought some!! Thanks Debbie!

Excellent work!

Gardenology is a pleasure to work with. They transformed my garden with native plants. Their attention to every detail made the experience above my expectations.

Reuven is a knowledgeable and considerate craftsman, and instinctively understands planting and gardens. He and his crew installed two raised beds in our back yard (with deer fencing), and helped my wife and I plant a large variety of herbs and vegetables.

The completed installation was executed with a keen level of professional detail, and he was responsive about giving my wife and I guidance on planting, watering, care, etc. Gardenology's and Reuven's mission truly embraces empowering their clients to be great gardeners. We look forward to a full season of great produce!

Gardenology was very professional in their operations and committed to craftsmanship in their work. They have beautified our garden with their high quality work and materials. We now have two beautiful custom garden beds in our yard and we look forward to many years of wonderful enjoyment. I highly recommend Gardenology.
