Whelchel Landscaping & Construction

I highly recommend Ray, Dave and his crew. We are completely satisfied with our finished product and our patio upgrade is exactly what we wanted. Communication with Ray was seamless and changes made in our design were addressed and implemented with no problems. Ray and his team came up with patio ideas to best fit our yard. Project was completed on time and would definitely use Whelchel Landscape & Construction again.

My wife and I had much of the old existing landscape removed last year in our lower back yard (the yard has a lower level on the south side and an upper level on the West and North sides). We contracted with Whelchel Landscaping to finish the lower backyard demolition so that a new paver patio could be installed. We also had an old retaining wall removed and rebuilt along with steps leading to the upper back yard. The paver patio is large and runs as a walkway from the front drive through to the back yard, proceeding under a covered patio followed further on by another enclosed patio (3 walls), and finally as a walkway to the new steps leading up to the upper back yard. We remodeled the upper North yard, which was originally dirt, into two short, terraced retaining walls in addition to a flagstone walkway that led to the front yard. Finally, the entire front yard was re-rocked with some new plants as well-as the entire lower back yard, which included boulders, trees, plants and a large section of grass with a paver perimeter and irrigation.

This was a very large construction project. They (Samantha, Ray, Dave, and Isaiah) worked with us from the beginning developing a design for the construction and a phased schedule for accomplishing all the work. The schedule included working around a vacation we had booked earlier, which interrupted the work part way through.

The result is absolutely gorgeous! The crews (2 for part of the job) arrived promptly every single morning on the job. They were all hard workers performing the various required tasks with only lunch breaks. All facets of the work were professionally accomplished with experienced attention to detail. Sam (Samantha) was wonderful to work with and very patient with the multitude of changes I requested as the project progressed. Each change was coordinated professionally and efficiently incorporated into the design plan. With such a large project performed at an older residence with all its accompanying complexity (buried footings just name one), a few problems did arise, but these were professionally caught, redesigned, and installed as a matter of course.

I couldn’t be happier with the result. Someday we plan on re-landscaping the upper West back yard and I know that Whelchel will get that job! I highly recommend this company.

Whelchel Landscaping was great to work with from the first interaction with Bill as we went over the design and plant options, to the interactions with the crew as we did final stone placement. They were fair and professional throughout the entire process and the quality of the work was excellent. They kept the site clean every day, and adapted well to minor changes requested during the installation. I would recommend this company for any work you need them to do!

Whelchel Landscaping recently landscaped our backyard with new gravel and paver pathways. They also provided drainage provisions that is needed during monsoon season. Dave and his crew did an excellent job on the removal of old gravel and soil and the installation of the new landscaping. The crew showed up every morning on time and on a couple of days stayed past quitting time to get to a good stopping point. The crew worked well with each other and enjoyed a positive camaraderie. Bill Whelchel visited several times during the duration of the project. The work was performed to my desired expectations at every phase of the project. A couple of post-job items were handled in expedient fashion. We would recommend Whelchel Landscaping & Construction to anyone who is planning any type of landscaping.

I have no regrets hiring Whelchel Landscaping to redo our front and back yard! Dmitri was professional, responsive, accountable, and he and his crew did a phenomenal job! Dmitri gave me options on colors for the front and backyard rocks along with recommendations, and was able to get started quickly after meeting him for an estimate. They removed weeds, layered new weed barrier, added new rocks, trimmed bushes, and did general yard cleanup. They were done within 2 days left everything immaculate. I am very happy with the result, and I really recommend Whelchel Landscaping for your landscaping needs!
