  • “Graham worked with us about a year and a half ago redesigning some areas in our front yard. He was very easy to work with and informal yet efficient. We were pleased with just about all he suggested and know that the next time we decide to do some more landscaping work to our home, it will be Graham that we call on.”

  • “Graham produces a personalized, detailed, lovely landscape design for my home’s backyard. It incorporates my rose garden, a perennial cottage garden, a fountain, and brick and pea gravel walkways. Graham listened to me and respected my ideas. He combined his vast landscape design knowledge with lots of creativity and verve to give me my ‘dream garden."
    Jane Pilzer
  • “During the extensive renovation of our home and yard, Graham's efforts were unparalleled amongst the many people and businesses we encountered. He took the time to listen to our objectives, designed a plan in accordance with those goals, and handled all of the essential details from the beginning to the end of the project. Graham was a consummate professional in every aspect of our landscaping project."
    Stephanie and Rob Morgan
  • “Graham Kimak designed an absolutely beautiful “working” landscape for me and my family. He was able to determine our family needs with areas for our children to play and imagine, a manageable perennial garden for a working mother (myself), and a maturing landscape that is enjoyed year round. As my yard matures I am marveled by how the plan design handles the maturing of the plants. He is a pleasure to work with on the site and listens to your thoughts about how you personally use your yard, plants that you appreciate, and your expectations of your landscape. He is an excellent resource with his knowledge of plants, design, ground flow and how a yard functions with a family.”

    Mike Branz, President, Garfield Signs and Graphics
  • “Stephen and I have thoroughly enjoyed working with Graham Kimak. He did a great job of listening to our wishes for a low maintenance, child friendly yard. He was thoroughly involved in the implementation of the landscape plan, which was finished in a timely manner. Now, our previously extremely overgrown yard looks well established. Our entire family enjoys being outside in all four seasons of the year.”
    Mary and Stephen Ridgeway
  • "We have a cottage style home and Graham's design kept the landscape and home architecture working together. We continue to get compliments on our garden 4 years later."

  • “I have had the pleasure of working with Graham and taking part in the construction process of his designs for the past 10 years. We have developed a great working relationship, and I enjoy taking part in the construction of Graham’s projects. I have always felt that through Graham’s wonderful and unique designs, and the help of the contractors he uses, we all are taking our part in beautifying the upstate, one yard at a time.”
    Tim Shook, President, TS Stoneworks, Inc.
  • “My working relationship with Graham goes back to 1991 when he was part time, still in college at another design firm. In 1994 he became full time and we have worked together ever since. I am a woodworker that builds his arbors, gates, custom garden fences etc. I think if you work with someone that long (18 years) that is the ultimate testimonial. I do not hesitate to recommend Graham to anyone for his design and his thoroughness in completing his projects.”
