"The scope of our property remodel was larger than we could manage. We considered doing some of the work ourselves and bidding out the more complex sections. We interviewed several companies and selected Black Diamond to complete the entire remodel. The yard around our home is comprised of a front yard 45 ft wide by 25 ft deep, two side yard strips 2-6 feet wide by 60 feet deep and 8 smaller rectangular spaces in the front and back yard. After 19 years these areas had become overgrown requiring a complete clearing and total rebuild. The goal was to beautify the area and reduce its maintenance. We chose to convert the front yard into a small park with artificial turf interspersed around the trees. The side strips received new plants with river rock as the base. The smaller spaces had numerous pots to be repotted with plants appropriate for the sun or shade as each area dictated. The watering system was completely rebuilt to automatically and independently water each area. David Kingsbury was project manager and Max Riveira was the crew manager (these two men were a pleasure to interface with). Jose supervised different crews through each phase of the project. Wet Weather created some delays but the crews worked through much of it The scope of work for the park area included clearing all overgrowth and debris , replacing the old sprinkler systems, regrading, surfacing-contouring and laying the artificial turf. The side strips were cleared, new watering system installed and replanted, rodent screens and new rock added to finish. This was a major project and we are so pleased with the results. We highly recommend the company and the personnel that made this possible. A special thanks to David and Max for going above and beyond our expectations."

"Alexia designed a large planter box, which included adding a fountain, trees, plants, succulents, and a rock river bed. She provided us with a 3-D design based on our initial ideas of what we wanted. We fell in love with her rendition. She helped us pick out four large Jasper rocks, one of which we turned into a fountain. She also went with us to several nurseries to help us pick out the flowers, trees, and succulents that we used in the planter box. We absolutely love how the planter box turned out and enjoy sitting on our lounge chairs while listening to the fountain. We are also considering installing an aluminum awning in our backyard so Alexia provided different designs for us to consider for the awning placement. This project is still in process. We love working with Alexia she is passionate about her work and loves helping her clients realize their dreams. We will definitely rehire Alexia in the future should the need arise."

"Working with Kent and his team was so easy. I put off having the work done because I thought it would be stressful, and my vision would be ignored. NOT with Terra Natura! I couldn't be happier with the garden, outdoor kitchen and lighting. A real joy to work with, on time and exactly what I envisioned."

"Buen servicio, y buena comunicasion. Recomendado"

"Robert and Avalon Service transformed our backyard space. It had previously been just a slab of concrete and some wood chips, but now it's an inviting retreat where my family and I look forward to spending time. It's beautiful, cozy, and the use of space makes sense. Robert even managed to make it low maintenance, to ensure it STAYS gorgeous over the years. All of that at a reasonable price, in a reasonable amount of time. I highly recommend Avalon Services"
