It is with great satisfaction and gratitude that I am writing this letter of recommendation for Michael Minder (MJM).

November 1998 began our association. I, the general contractor with Mike being our consultant and advisor for this project. Mike, Sandra and I collaborated many hours on, wants, needs, ideas, budget, and time frames, which Mike reduced to drawing, specifications, plans, plants, bid sheets, and a list of potential contractors. Through November and December we designed, interviewed and selected contractors for all the phases of the landscaping. Construction began January 2, 1999. Mike was always on site. In the early stages, at least once a day and as a phase matured once every three or four days. His council, advice and knowledge proved invaluable, not just from a wealth of knowledge and ideas but also how we wanted the finished project to look so that the entire landscape became an interwoven fabric of our home. The quality of our association gave confidence to expand the project from landscaping the back yard, about an acre, to adding the front and side yards, an additional half-acre, and then to the entry and drive, an additional quarter acre. 1,300 linear feet of 4-foot high walls, 2 fountains, decking, walking paths and a tree lined drive way with entry gate, it is almost finished. We will finish by April 1, 2000.

The real question of any reference is "would we hire Michael again". The answer is a resounding yes, with one change. We would hire Mike as the general contractor and then go on a worry free vacation.

It is with great respect that we whole heartily recommend Mike. If you would like to call me personally, please feel to do so, or if you wish to see the quality of Mike’s work, we would be very pleased to arrange a time for your visit.

Sincerely,

Michael Minder is not only knowledgeable in landscape design, he is also delightfully imaginative, thorough, and a pleasure to work with.  The job we presented to him entailed major site grading around a new hillside home while trying to avoid disrupting a timeworn deer trail.  Michael rose to the challenge.  As a result, both we and the deer are happy.  He used the best trades people in the business to complete his design, and stayed on top of it through all phases of construction.  Putting the entire project in his hands was definitely one of the best decisions we have made.  I would highly recommend Michael to anyone looking for stunning, hassle-free results.

A multi-year irrigation and landscaping plan is neither easy to envision or execute. Mike has managed to accomplish both. His selection of trees and shrubs has proven to be perfect for the location, ease of maintenance and ambience.  Mike is a pleasure to work with, he's efficient, available for questions and thinking ahead.
