And once again, Garden View’s crew was the best we’ve worked with in our many years of home and lan..." Read more

"my home in Naples is in an area called Port Royal. It’s very fancy and nice. But, the landscapers are pretty bad. I can assure you, despite the average cost of a home here being over $15m, no one; repeat NO ONE here could carry Garden View’s shovel. I am so unhappy with our landscaper. No imagination. S****y plants that keep dying. No sense of detail. It’s n..." Read more

"As a general contractor, I am very particular about the companies that I hire, especially when it is my own home. Garden View had a completely removed all of our 15 year old landscaping and had a new spa, pool and an incredible landscape design installed.

"Mark and company did our landscape almost 25 years ago – and it still looks great. We still are using the original timer box and control valves – the ones they put in were quality enough to last decades. Their gardeners have taken care of it since then every week and we still enjoy the layout of it all – the curves and overall spacing of everything has worke..." Read more

When the ideal project was a little more than we expected, they helped us find ways to bring the project back into budget without huge compromises. They were knowledgeable, friendly,..." Read more

"Garden View has been the best and most professional contractor that I have ever worked with. I was happy that I was able to find them. The pool area and grounds are a daily pleasure to see and experience. My neighbors even bring friends of theirs over just to see the pool. I found Mark and Eddie to be exactly what I needed to create and execute this project...." Read more

"Garden View was contracted to construct a swimming pool/spa. The design was outstanding and the workmanship superb. Mark Meahl requested our permission to submit the pool for a landscape award and it won. We recontacted Mr. Meahl at a later time to complete some improvements. Again, the workmanship was outstanding. I have made several referrals of Garden..." Read more

"I really have to hand it to this company. Mark and Eddie are true professionals in an industry that can be unprofessional. Garden View did my original landscape 10 years ago and did a great job. I moved away a few years ago and rented the property out and recently decided to sell it. Needless to say, while it was being rented, the landscape looked less than..." Read more

"Garden View just finished a 3 month project in our backyard. It was completely demolished except for the pool. We added a water feature, built-in BBQ, firepit, decking, spa and a refurbished pool with new seating and a beach entry. The yard was landscaped beautifully and every worker was of the highest quality. Garden View did our front yard 5 years ago and..." Read more

I’m happy say that when I have a project outdoors, I call Mark Meahl at Garden View to build it… Brad and I have known and worked with Mark Meahl, owner of Garden View for nearly..." Read more

"I’m not sure if you’ve seen our final completed project, but it is amazing. We’ve also added sound and an outdoor television – very little reason to be inside anymore!! At night, sitting outside, it feels like being at the Ritz Carlton. Really just great. Anyway, just wanted to say thank you. Companies that take great pride in their work are rare these days,..."

"To our friends at Garden View, Our landscape was in need of a makeover: hard pan with a dying, ugly lawn; cracked concrete driveway, front walk and patio; ugly chain link gates and fences; an inadequate irrigation system with poor coverage; huge tree roots coming up out of the lawn; boring plants (of those that had survived years of mow, blow and go)… not a..."

"The home has been great for ten years! Now that it’s just Jayne and I, it’s just become too much for us to manage given our other interest. 1932 needs a family and we’ve found one for it…a wonderful one! We’re now in the process of simplifying our lives so we’re likely to purchase a condo on Orange Grove, not unlike like all the other old people! We’d like..." Read more

"I just had to write on here. Don’t do it often but when I get exceptional work done and fabulous service I seriously had to. I have been living in a great house that was perfect to me except for the backyard area.I hated it. Dreary, boring, dry looking, horribly monochromatic….I dreaded spending time outdoors. It’s been on the backburner for me for a long ti..." Read more

"Garden View did an excellent job on designing and building my large outdoor kitchen. It included a barbecue, burners, fireplace, large counter areas, and stone base and pillars. He built a shade structure off the house and used pavers for the floor areas. Mark and his staff was delightful to work with. I have contacted them many times for additional purchas..." Read more

"We have a very steep hill as a backyard with plenty of plant eating wildlife. ALo a waterfall on that hill that needed a major rebuild as we wanted to stay with the natural look. This was not an ordinary job! Garden View was excellent all the way from a "rocky" beginning to an wonderful finish. (literally tons of rocks were rearranged, imported and remove..." Read more
