We had an excellent experience with Secret Garden. Unique and interesting patio / landscape design ideas. Mike was a cut above several other landscape designers and companies which were also consulted on this project. We needed excavation and install of new patio as well as support for surrounding beds. Mike and his team were transparent, timely, professional and efficient. Our project started and ended on time. The crew who worked at our house for the week was courteous, professional and really talented. I can recommend them confidently. It was a very positive experience. - Jeff Noll
