Luxescapes completed a large xeriscaping/deck/patio project for us, and we could not be more pleased! The price was right, the schedule made sense, the workers were prompt, persistent, and worked so hard! We worked through challenges together as they came up. Their design creativity was the magic in the overall transformation to both curb appeal and functionality. I have a full review with pictures posted to Google Reviews if you'd like to read more. I highly recommend them for projects both large and small. read more

We met Stephen at the home and garden show and asked him to come out and give us a quote for our backyard. He was very professional and had amazing ideas for our space. Our house backed to a steep hill and the existing yard was nothing but bushes and mulch - a real eyesore. Once Stephen drew up the plans and showed us all the potential we knew we wanted to work with him. When the project started, Stephen came out frequently to check on his crew's progress. His guys were courteous and always cleaned up after themselves. The foreman was a pleasure to work with and kept us informed of everything that was happening. We did experience some delay due to heavy rains, but they kept us in the loop about how that impacted our timeline. The finished product was truly beautiful. Everyone who came to our house complimented us on the landscaping. Stephen put in two large retaining walls made out of large boulders, extended our lawn, put in a gorgeous pondless waterfall with a bridge across, and topped it all off with perfect lighting. It was exactly what we had wanted and more. We recently sold our house. It was on the market for less than 48 hours and sold for our asking price. I attribute that to Stephen's artistry. We are getting settled in our new house and fully intend to use Luxescapes to improve our landscaping. I'm excited to see what ideas Stephen will have for us this time. Call Luxescapes for a quote. You won't regret it. read more

We met this company at a Home & Garden show in Denver. The owner was very nice, we later made an appointment. A woman showed up and listened to my needs and concerns but felt the need to tell me and I quote, "well we're not the cheapest and we're very busy." That statement was due to my wanting to do one or two sections at a time due to the large scale of the project. She roamed my property took some notes and told me she'd get back with me in two weeks and said again "because they were so busy." Never heard back from them. Maybe it would have helped if I were living in Boulder, Highlands Ranch. read more

We used Luxescapes for our front yard remodel, and are extremely pleased with the experience. We originally asked Meghan to quote a project for both a back yard and a front yard remodel; even though we eventually chose to remodel only the front yard (one year later), we never felt pressured to do both, or felt as though our small project wasn't important. The quote was very thorough, understandable, and fair - and included landscape drawings. Meghan's professionalism throughout the bid process made us comfortable enough to not even consider a different vendor. Meghan always kept us up-to-date on project progress, especially when bad weather caused delays. The workers were always polite and helpful - they even install a temporary front stoop of stacked pavers prior to the new stoop construction. The two minor change orders during the project were well-managed. Luxescapes even coordinated a Fort Collins sod vendor delivery for a specific sod we ordered. The work quality is outstanding! The bricks and patterns were exactly what we wanted. The precision of the cut bricks is outstanding. It looks great - we constantly get compliments from neighbors and visitors. Meghan followed up with a post-project site visit to ensure we were satisfied, and reduced the price amount due to one of our change orders, and a second roll-off dumpster that wasn't needed. In summary - I highly recommend Luxescapes, without reservation. read more

We highly recommend Luxescapes for your next outdoor landscape or patio project! Meghan at Luxescapes was an excellent designer and project manager to work with. The crew that worked on our front flagstone patio and surrounding landscape were prompt, reliable, hard-working, paid attention to detail, and kept our property very tidy during the entire project. Meghan and crew were easy to work with to tweak a few things during the process and open to helping us solve problems on the fly. Our patio and yard looks revived! We love it and have received many compliments from neighbors. Thank you Luxescapes! read more

I highly recommend Luxescapes. We hired them to fix significant grading, sloping, and poor design issues from another companies work. Luxescapes was reliable, completed the project ahead of schedule, and had excellent communication throughout the project. They stand behind their work and have responded to any questions we've had about maintenance, plants, and future projects. We've hired them for 2019 to complete similar issues in our back yard. It's been a joy to work with them and I trust their experience, integrity, and outcomes! Kelly R read more

When we were looking at designers to have our yard landscaped, we had no parameters, other than a budget, and a small space to work with. We looked at three, and gave them all full license to design something they felt would meet our needs. We went with Luxescapes for several reasons. Meghan took the time to find out what was important to us, her design was very thoughtful, well laid out, and incorporated things that made our space unique, yet spoke to the type of intimate surrounding we were trying to create. Luxescapes is a smaller company, which to us, meant that their success hinged on the success of each and every job, and not just through volume of work. The details: Our budget was $40,000; they came in at $38,000. At the start of the project, Meghan asked a lot of questions about what was important to us, and what type of atmosphere we were looking for. She was very creative with our small space, keeping it functional and giving it a unique look. Luxescapes did a great job with the coordination of contractors for cement, electrical and gas. They managed everything and it was seamless. Luxescapes' employees were extremely courteous, leaving the job site very neat every day, and even went above and beyond, helping my husband move heavy items out of the yard, before they began their work. Change orders were simple, well organized, and there were no surprises. They cut the base of the board and batten of the house exterior to fit the patio pavers. They were very precise with the grade, ensuring no water drainage issues. We were able to leverage Meghan's creativity, saving us $4,000 in sculpture/artwork. Luxescapes designed a phenomenal grill inset, and were very attentive to detail with all of their work. In the end, the only thing we changed was the artificial grass area, which they obliged without issue. We couldn't have been happier with Meghan and her crew. The results far exceeded our expectations and we love our outdoor space! We look forward to having them back to execute phase 2 of our project! read more

We had a few warranty items come up and they dealt with it exactly as expected and we agreed upon. Great!

Two years ago, Meghan and Luxescapes built a beautiful paver-stone patio for our backyard. We had an overall great experience with Luxescapes. As I was researching landscape design contractors, Meghan was the most responsive of those I contacted. She was very personable and professional while visiting our home to discuss ideas and look at the space. I was incredibly impressed with the quality of the design drawings she presented; way more professional and inspirational than the chicken-scratch drawings we received from other contractors. The quality of those designs (without any up-front charge, by the way) gave me confidence that they were a professional, creative company. The installation crew were courteous and prompt, and finished the project within the proposed timeframe. The thing that impressed me the most about Luxescapes, however, was their responsiveness after the project was complete. Our home was only 1.5yrs old at the time, and settling soil caused parts of the stairs to become un-level. Despite being advised before the project that they couldn't be held accountable for settling soil, which I thought was reasonable, the crew still returned several weeks later with a creative solution to fix the un-level appearance. They did not need to do this, and I was appreciative that they wanted us to be completely satisfied. My wife and I are now planning some additional backyard landscaping and a paver-stone front patio, and Meghan and Luxescapes are the only company we've called. read more

I used Luxscapes to relandscape our backyard in 2014, side yard in 2015 and plan to have my frontyard relandscaped this summer. Stephen creates wonderful outdoor livingspaces that have expanded significantly the use of your property. Having had Stephen and his crew out twice, I was surprised to see many of the same faces from the year before. The work crew arrived on time, were respectful of our privacy while working around the house and cleaned up after themselves. The project began when scheduled and ended within the estimated time frame and price. No surprises. Stephen has a talant for design. Many of our neighbors have walked watched the progress of our yard and are very impressed with the final outcome. It is truely a lovely place to relax. I would recommend working with Stephen and Luxescapes without hesitation. read more

THE ABSOLUTE BEST!! Being new house junkies, we have built and lived in several homes in Boulder and Denver (plus a vacation home in New Mexico) over the last 25 years. As a result we have learned a great deal about engaging landscape designers. Some charge very high fees just for the design and outsource the work to another firm. Others rely on tired and time-worn "paver/flagstone" designs that look like everything else. We contracted with Luxescapes for our newest home based on the most beautiful design and landscape I had ever seen in the Denver metro area!! The project - in our neighborhood - was so contemporary and truly spectacular, I knew I wanted a bid. Even the pergola Luxescapes constructed looked more beautiful, elegant and magnificent than any I've ever seen. Quality workmanship. Meghan was incredibly responsive and provided the design in a couple of weeks. We had already received ideas and bids from a few others. Luxescapes was so far superior in terms of trends, materials, planting and lighting -- not to mention the cost -- it was a very easy decision. Our new yard is stunning -- very modern, clean and architecturally conforms to our contemporary home. The cost/benefit ratio is far more competitive than the others. We have now seen three projects in our area that are just gorgeous and each is unique to the home. We were simply getting frustrated with so many of the typical landscape designs and wanted something really stunning....and we got just that! We highly recommend Luxescapes and hope anyone seeking the best design, the best crews -- who clean up every little tidbit of sand before they depart -- at the best price contact Luxescapes......and come take a look at our neighborhood projects if you don't believe us! read more

Luxescapes does fantastic work. Thanks to their team, I have a beautiful courtyard that is the focal point of my house and a wonderful space for outdoor entertaining. They couldn't be any easier to work with, and the craftsmanship is top notch. Their prices are reasonable for what you get, including peace of mind that the project will be done right. I've referred numerous friends to them, which is something I've never done for any other contractor. read more

Our landscaping is the best in the neighborhood thanks to Stephen Himschoot at Luxescapes. He worked with us to totally replace the front and backyards, creating an inviting entrance and attractive plantings of trees, bushes and flowers. People stop to take pictures! Our backyard is now an extension of our house, with a dramatic pergola, fountain and fire pit, complemented by overhead heaters, artistically placed lighting and surrounded by trees, bushes and flowering plants. The workmanship was outstanding and his team was responsive to tailoring the plans while work was in progress. We have hired numerous contractors over the past 25 years and Luxescapes stands out as a top notch quality company. read more

We couldn't have had a better experience with Luxescapes. We worked primarily with Meghan, who is not only a delight to be around but also a talented designer. When we were considering re-doing our entire backyard plus a few upgrades in the front, we interviewed four landscaping companies. Meghan was the only one who offered to create a design without making us pay for it. (We paid another company $1,000 for a design we never used. Such a waste!) She listened to our wants and came up with a plan that was so much more manageable cost-wise than the other companies we interviewed that we were worried it was too good to be true. But it wasn't! Meghan's design unfolded before our eyes and it was beautiful. Meghan was always available during the construction and when we noticed a few minor issues, she was always there to get them fixed quickly and correctly. Our entire project was done on time and, years later, it still looks amazing. Everyone that comes to our house remarks on how much it adds to our home. Once the project was complete, we had a couple of plants/trees die. We kind of expected that that was normal but we let Meghan know anyway -- and she replaced the trees straight away for free. Three years after our project was completed, we asked Meghan back to our house to give us a quote on another project. Although she was there to look at another part of our property, she noticed a slight droop in a few of the patio pavers they had laid years before. She was horrified and sent a team over to fix it immediately -- for free. We would ask Luxescapes back to do work at our home again and again. read more
