It was a pleasure working with Shane and his crew on our backyard project and we couldn’t be happier with the results! His knowledge is extensive and the thoughtfulness he applies to the design process is impressive. He considers how the client will use the space, and then factors in important details like the amount of sun/shade, drainage, seasonal changes and when to use evergreens, maturity and aging process, etc. He knows the region and selects native plants that will thrive. Shane gave us different price point options and helped us prioritize the various components of the project and stay in budget.

Anyone can design landscaping and yards. Shane knows how to think through every variable and how to ensure you only do the right version of what you should do when designing landscaping and yards. He is the best landscape architect in north Boston. This comes from me and my neighbors. Whether big or small, he is the best at talking through, designing, and executing (at a meticulous level). This kind of person is so hard to find, but Shane is a high performer in everything he does and will make you feel comfortable throughout the entire process and have you hearing yourself saying “it’s Shane, I trust him 100%” and not regret it.

Shane was a pleasure to work with; I gave him some very high level ideas and he brought my vision to life. He was very hands on with the crew on the days of install and checked in frequently with me on the progress (despite being a pretty small project!). I've worked with several companies in the area, and Shane and Groundswell were by far the best I've worked with - personal, professional and responsive. Shane has continued to check in with me after the work is completed, and my backyard feels like an oasis. Emphatically recommend!
