“Marjorie Smith is a truly outstanding landscape designer. My wife and I have had many homes over the years. We have done some of our own landscaping, but typically we have hired and worked with landscaping professionals. Of those professionals, Marjorie stands head and shoulders above the rest. She has done multiple projects for us involving trees, bushes, and flowers in both sun, shade, and difficult spots. Here are the things we like best about Marjorie. First, she knows what she is talking about. She has been a landscape design professional for many years and a gardening enthusiast for even longer. She knows what will look good, what will work well, and what will not. Her advice is invariably good. Second, she is a joy to work with. She listens well, adjusts to our thoughts and feedback, and anticipates and works around any potential difficulties. I love trees and often have my own ideas about what species to use and where to place the trees. Marjorie always respectfully listens and improves upon my ideas. I have learned to greatly trust her. Finally, she does exactly what she says she will do, for the price she quotes, and she does it very well. We know we can put ourselves in her hands and get a great, value added, result every time. My wife and I would not even consider working with anyone else.”

“Elliott Landscaping Groug did some work on four of our neighbors homes and came highly recommended by all our neighbors. We sent them pictures of landscaping ideas we saw online and wanted to know if they could duplicate the pictures we sent to them. They came to our home and listen to our ideas, took some pictures of our home and within a short period of time sent us pictures of our home that showed us exactly what our house would look like with the trees, shrubs and bushes we chose. within weeks they were at home turning our landscaping dreams into reality. The team that showed up came prepared, were highly professional and got the job completed on time. We highly recommend the Elliott Landscaping Group to make your landscaping dreams come true.”

“In 2010, my wife and I purchased a beautiful 68 acre farm in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia. The farmhouse, originally built in 1817, and then expanded in 1867, was in fairly original condition, and optimally located in the center of the property. It's most significant problem, however, was water. Rain water would shed off the nearby ridge, and pool in front of the house, and then ultimately leak through the hand dug cellar walls and cracks in the cement floor. The sump pump in the basement would run for weeks after a single heavy rain. Our little Garden of Eden was becoming a swamp. Consequently, we looked to Joe Duggan of J. Duggan & Associates to help structurally, and permanently, solve our water problem. This was our first time working with a landscape architect. Joe recommended and coordinated the hiring of several key professionals to assist with the design of the project, namely a topographer/surveyor and an arborist. The topographer mapped the elevations around the farm house and associated ridge, and determined the various sources of the water pooling in front of the house. The arborist identified which of the seven 150 year old trees that closely ringed the house were still healthy, and which were in failing condition. With this data, Joe created several drafts of various front patio and stone retaining wall configurations that primarily solved our water problem, but also took advantage of the fabulous views from our front porch. The project plan we ultimately settled on was both simple and elegant, and in perfect keeping with the age of the house and surrounding farm land. The stone patio and stone retaining wall were built on reinforced concrete that had a series of drains embedded within the structure that successfully discharged water away from the house. Having stated that though, the drains are cleverly concealed within the patio and surrounding grounds. The patio is perfect for entertaining while it performs its utilitarian task of keeping water out of the house. As we were new to the area, Joe also identified a stone mason/general contractor who actually built the patio and retaining walls according to his specifications. During construction, it seemed to us that one set of stone piers looked like they were going to be too high. Joe immediately came out, sat in the front porch chairs that we were sitting in, and agreed that the offending piers could be shortened. In the end, we have been exceptionally pleased with the work and care that Joe put into this project. The front porch/stone patio/stone retaining walls are beautiful, and in keeping with the spirit of our house and farm.”
