Mike and his crew did a fantastic job with my retaining wall and paver patio. Mike knew the process to get the design through my HOA in Colonial Heritage on the first attempt. He even met me at the HOA office to help submit the paperwork to the architectural committee. Needless to say I’m very high on Berkeley Design Group and so will you if you elect to use them for your hardscape project.

BEWARE! BEWARE! BEWARE! THEY DO NOT STAND BEHIND THEIR WORK! I wish I could leave NO STARS. Berkeley Design installed a paver porch and two walkways for us. Eighteen months later we began to notice some separation of some of the pavers. At first we thought it was because Berkeley had never come back to seal them despite numerous requests and numerous promises and excuses by Mike. Months passed, then years. Repeated calls and emails ensued. Promises from Mike to come to fix the heaving of the porch pavers and the sinking of both walkways only brought excuses and no-shows. By now the stairs had shifted. Porch pavers were now actually moving, heaving upwards, causing a tripping hazard. Rain was puddling on the walkways. Pictures and videos were texted to Mike (I wish I could post them.) Unfortunately, we tried being nice at all times, giving him the benefit that Berkeley would stand behind their work. They did not. They had their money. They knew they had done shoddy work. Mike’s last excuse was to actually say his insurance company told him to blame the builder! Plus, Berkeley was smart enough to let the statute of limitations run out for us to sue. We had to pay to have the ENTIRE porch, stairs and walkways redone, thus paying twice. I know many, many of our neighbors have used Berkeley and we were impressed by their work at the time we hired them. JUST BE AWARE THAT ANY PROBLEMS YOU MAY ENCOUNTER LATER WILL NOT BE ADDRESSED. BEWARE!Services: Stone masonry

I would HIGHLY recommend this company. They did a wonderful job and finished ahead of schedule. Mike Turkovich, mgr, on site lead, salesman, was fantastic. Was able to offer us several choices for our patio and as you can see did a wonderful job landscaping our ugly bank behind our yard. His men were all on time each day, worked their backsides off and were very polite. You need to look no further in finding a company you can trust.

Congratulations to us for choosing Berkeley Design to install a patio on our property in Colonial Heritage.We knew what we wanted but had many questions about the process ( size,shape, cost and appropriateness for the neighborhood). Since Berkeley has done many projects in our community,Mike T was able to address all our concerns and added some design features which we had not thought of which really enhanced the final package.His crew worked skillfully to do the job with minimal disruption to our normal routine.Highest possible marks for Berkeley Design.Services: Yard landscaping

Contacted this business and asked for a quote for a retaining wall. Was asked to send pictures, which I did. Never heard anything back even after I contacted them again and asked for an update on the appointment time for an in-person evaluation/quote. What I didn't tell them is I planned to use them for a complete back yard renovation, to include both hard and soft scapes with a water feature, but evidently my yard wasn't big or elaborate enough for their time or courtesy. Shame, since I had 20k put aside for a full yard renovation. No, I do not recommend this company.Service: Landscape installations

Berkeley Design Group was a pleasure to work with during the entire process of transforming my backyard . Not only did they help with the design but implemented the entire project in a short amount of time considering the scope of the project. In two days, trees and bushes were removed and my back yard was graded and prepped for the hardscape work. The crew even came to complete the job the Saturday before the week of Christmas. A curved retaining wall with an incorporated bench surrounding a fire pit was constructed along the edge of my yard and a block walkway was constructed from a back patio to the driveway. Accent lighting makes it so cozy in the evening. Finally, sod and mulch were put down to give a nice finishing touch to the project. I am so very pleased I hired Berkeley Design Group to bring to fruition more than I could have thought possible. Now I love spending time in my back yard!Services: Landscaping design

Mike and his team transformed our home into a SHOW STOPPER. Phase 1 was to install a patio and fire pit. Mike met with my wife and I to discover how we planned to use the space and then came up with a design that checked all our boxes and fit within our budget. Phase 2 was to revamp our landscaping. Again Mike found out our style, included specific plants we liked, and developed a landscaping plan that really makes our home pop. Mike and his team are true professionals; they show up on time, do what they say they will do, and kept a clean jobsite. Thanks to Mike and his team we have a beautiful outdoor space to enjoy with family and friends.Services: Hardscaping

I am so impressed with the work and the measure of kindness and helpful tips Mike gave me when we were trying to decide what to do with my budget in mind. He was amazing and went above and beyond! I love my new patio...
