Dan worked with us to create and build a lovely new garden that has everyone commenting on what a transformation it is! Thank you for everything you did.Posted on Belinda HayesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dan, is the Garden Alchemist and he is indeed an alchemist… he and his brilliant team squeezed me in between much larger projects and transformed my very sorry looking deck, that was rapidly sinking, into a sturdy, fresh new one! Adding a new walk way, a new garden shed and redirecting the irrigation system. Dan’s attention to detail is immaculate. I thoroughly recommend The Garden Alchemist, you couldn’t wish to meet a more likeable and capable team.Posted on Annie Brittain PhotographyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
