Moody Graham Landscape Architecture

Moody Graham was considered along 3 other Landscape Architect's in the DC area. MG was by far the most professional. Their creative ideas showed us they were invested in the project and wanted to create lasting beauty. We did various iterations from their initial design to arrive to a mutually agreed layout that went far beyond what we'd initially invisioned. We loved it. We spent 12 months working side by side, patiently and with extreme attention to detail. Their contractor bid evaluation was critical to the succesful outcome of the project. MG was always willing to figure out a path forward even when patience was running thin. Positives: Creative process, attention to detail, vendor management, client advocacy. Room for improvement: Budget tracking and estimating.

When I think of my experience working with Moody Graham, three things stand out. One, they made an effort to do little things really well. It reminds me perfection is made of small things, but perfection is not a small thing. Two, what they delivered was a pleasant surprise. They set clear and realistic plans but went above and beyond to deliver high quality work. Three, they really practiced what they preach. When I look at my yard I can see all their vision (non-negotiable?) bullet points. I am very glad to have had this journey

My wife and I are repeat clients with Moody Graham, and we highly recommend them. Both projects involved extensive earthwork, hardscaping, and plantings of rear yards. On both projects, we've found Ryan and his entire staff to be thoughtful, engaging, flexible, and passionate about their work-- and our spaces. They work carefully to identify the project needs, goals, and budget, and then set up a plan and schedule to accomplish the design goals. They were very helpful also in identifying qualified contractors for bidding purposes. They're very experienced, and care deeply about their community, which was very important to us as well. Again- very highly recommend them.
