Bob's work over more than a decade has transformed my property completely. I wake up every day in a "resort" rather than simply a "home." His work with stone is especially transformative. He is a gentleman, receptive to aesthetic challenges, and fair.
Bob Schweitzer has literally transformed our property through 4 major projects over a 28 (!) year period. (1) We gave him complete discretion to create lawns, vistas, stone walls and to populate the area with gorgeous plantings. (2) Subsequently, he designed and supervised the construction of a pool that is set within major stone outcroppings in a completely private setting. It is breathtaking. (3) He replaced a traditional straight-line bluestone front walk with a magnificent curved walk made out of colored Chinese quartzite that varies from 15 to 8 to 15 feet wide. (4) Finally, he re-routed the driveway from a straight line to a 'banana'-shaped curve around a tree and then lined the driveway with massive boulders and beautiful plantings.
In addition to his superb design ,engineering and landscaping skills, he is an absolute pleasure to work with and his work ethic is top notch. He cares about your property as if it were his own. Should we need a fifth landscaping job, the only person we would call is Bob.
I have worked with Bob for years, he is a professional, if he promises you sketches or working drawings by a certain date, they are ready and on time. If he attends a town or city board meeting on your behalf, he brings to that meeting a true understanding of your situation and your goals. He is accomplished at turning a difficult application into a approval. His presentations show his level of effort and attention to detail, he is always prepared. All the above is important and true but for me the true measure of this mans work is his love and passion for what he does, you not only can see the results of his work but you can physically feel and sense his landscapes.
