What our customers are saying
“It was evident from the first meeting; UD was extremely professional and competent! The design concept, lead time, and execution went as planned. UD was not the lowest cost provider but hands down the best value! You get what you pay for, and Urban Design was amazing!
– Dan Schultze
“We are very pleased with the landscape design and performance of Urban Design Company. They creatively designed our project and completed the entire project over a few weeks in the summer of 2023. Their 3D virtual design software made it easy to visualize the entire scope of work. They were able to make rapid adjustments throughout the entire process. The crew was professional and knowledgeable. We have received many compliments on our beautiful stone patio, bluestone steps, and plantings. Lovely job, Kate Roehl”

“Urban Design Company, James, and his team truly live out their values when delivering on their work commitments. They demoed my old walk-out deck and crafted a beautiful new patio, seamlessly dealing with unexpected items that popped up during the project. The team is committed to quality work and skilled craftsmanship. I really appreciated their transparent communication and meticulous planning to ensure timely completion, leaving the site beautifully transformed. Their honest approach and eye for excellence truly sets them apart.”
