He showed up on time. Carefully assessed the area. Knowledgeable and prepared with materials to discuss and help make decisions on a plant list. Polite and listened to my preferences.

It was a very good experience. They were a little expensive but I got my money's worth. They are very responsible and very professional. They were here at 7:00 every morning.

He was very responsive, on time, exceeded my expectations. Worked quickly made recommendations and worked directly with me real time to make decisions. It took a shorter time than I anticipated as he was so knowledgeable and collaborative. I enjoyed the time we spent working on the project and I learned a lot in the process. I would highly recommend him, I don't see how you could go wrong or find a more pleasant person to work with.

I only had vague ideas of how I wanted the landscaping in my yard to look after I bought my house with very basic landscaping. I knew I wanted low maintenance, colorful, drought tolerant plants.
Steven brought pictures and books of various plantings, and used his vast knowledge of landscape design to advise on which plants would do well, given the amount of sunlight, and keeping in mind my desire for low maintenance. We also discussed cobble stone placement as well.
The final plan included a list of plants, scale, and placement of everything. My yard is not very big, and he provided me with a list of landscapers who are experts in smaller jobs.

Thank you for all of your ideas and for the detailed plant-o-gram that you sketched out for us. You made a task that seemed daunting at the beginning, into something where we saw light at the end of the tunnel. I wish that the City of San Diego Turf Replacement department was as responsive and efficient as you were!

My consultation with Steven Letz greatly exceeded my expectations about could be accomplished in just a two hour session. Because of his creativity and knowledge of plants, he was able to completely design a front yard that will be less thirsty and much, much more attractive than what we've had.
Using our preferred color palette, he selected and sited plants, suggested replacement hardscaping, and solved the design problems of our entrance-way courtyard. We now have a very detailed plan that can be submitted to the contractors he recommended we get bids from.
He gets our highest recommendation!

I bought a $150 big deal for this service and he was a good guy. I upgraded the service when he was here. He was a very personable person, was easy to talk to and was very knowledgeable.

"These two hour consultations often leave the customer wanting more. It is challenging at times to create a design that satisfies a homeowner (who may have their own difficulties in making decisions in such a brief amount of time). I therefore am no longer offering this service and will concentrate on clients who wish to engage me to create a full Master Plan."

Steven Letz is a master of his craft and we ABSOLUTELY were happy with his services and suggestions. He began by getting a feel for our vision for the space and how we might want to utilize different areas of the yard. He truly listens to your desires and plans. He took our original ideas and enhanced what we were looking for. In the end we had something very similar to how we wanted to use the space, but it was way better with his suggestions. He really strives to keep true to what you envision, but then the process evolves into a very amazing sketch and design. As far as knowledge of plant material and landscaping, he is masterful and very organized. You give him a specific idea for a plant such as coloring, width, height, hardiness, maintenance, etc. and he will find you a picture and a name of a plant/flower that was almost as if he climbed into your mind and pulled the image out himself.
We received a wonderful scale size sketch of a plan with suggested planting materials and landscape design. We are very happy with the time and service. He comes with our highest recommendations and we would look forward to working with him to help bring the master plan to life. Thank you Steven Letz Design! AAA+++

Response from Letz Design Landscape
"[member name removed] purchased a two hour consultation with a rough sketch for his small front yard in San Diego. I met at the scheduled time and we reviewed numerous choices of plant materials and the clients responded favorable to a rough layout. After the two hour meeting, I then returned to my office to generate a type written plant list and a more legible drawing which took another 90 minutes (unpaid). I sent all the information back to the client the same day. [member name removed] did have a few follow up questions regarding contractors, soil, etc. and I responded with the needed information. I am unclear if I did not meet this client's expectation. A two hour consultation is just that. It is not meant to be a Master Plan which typically takes 5 to 10 hours of my time. I will have to contact this client to learn how I could have been more professional or provided more quality in this two hour time frame."

Steve' s commitment to the customer' s stated needs translated directly into his design. We saw EXACTLY what was discussed in the plan ; he is also careful about pointing out pros and cons of various aspects (materials, plants, usage, maintenance, etc.) and provided samples and pictures to illustrate the ideas we discussed. He is easy to work with and continues to be a resource for ideas and troubleshooting. We are delighted with the design and it has been embraced by our neighbors as well. We have been grateful for his thoughtful and comprehensive support in our water wise landscaping transition.

Steve designs the landscaping and helps line up the landscaping company to do the work. His plans were detailed and helpful in depicting what we wanted. The landscaping companies found the plans helpful as well. Steve was present to see how the work was progressing and followed up with us via email and phone calls. All and all we were very happy with his work.

I found him on Angie's List and he has been out several times. He is very responsive to emails and is good at giving suggestions. Steven provided thorough land drawings and a list of plans for me to research. He is open to me going to take pictures of the different kinds of fencing or plants I was interested in and then looking them up. He would get with his landscape nursery resources so I could find out where to locate the plants. Steven is extraordinarily thorough and responsive not only to my needs but my preferences as well. It does not matter if it is a big or small project, he really enjoys helping people do what they want; no matter the size of the project. He is very detail oriented, thorough and generous with his time. We are finalizing our contract now.

My wife and I have been talking about re-landscaping our yard for several years. We could never decide on what we wanted or what would look best in our yard. We wanted a plan that would add some hardscape to our yard but we would still have some drought tolerant plants, tress, and grass. We live on the rim of a canyon and have a huge problem with gophers.
We looked on Angie's List for someone to help us with a plan. We decided on Steven Letz Design Landscape, 5364 Adams Ave.San Diego, CA 92115 - (619) 265-1906.
The work is currently being completed by San Diego Paverscape (July 2012). Luis Vindel and his crew are bringing Stephen's plan to life.
Steven met with us three times to help develop the plan and really hear our ideas and concerns. We really did not know what we were doing and without this plan the work would have never been completed. One of the great things about having a plan is when your contact people to bid on the work they know what you want and then you really have an "apples to apples" bid.
Steven's final plan was complete and incorporated things that my wife and I wanted in the yard. Steven created a yard (front and back) that looks great, is drought tolerant and even has plants that the gophers do not like as much as others.
We would recommend you contact Lentz Design Landscape if you need a professional to help you put together a great plan.

I was very pleased with the design plan Letz Design Landscape came up with for my lawn. They have good design sense and they did an excellent job with my backyard. I was happy with the results and I would recommend them.
