Testimonials

We have used Dabah for landscape and hardscape design over the past few years. Among other projects, they have designed and installed shrubs and perennials, outdoor lighting, and a bluestone walkway. They are always a pleasure to deal with and I recommend them highly. Shannon Savage comes up with very creative designs and is a plant expert. Pricing is fair and the proposals are very detailed and specific so there are no surprises. They are honest and don’t cut corners and take great pride in their work.

We recently had Pamela and her team work on landscaping in our backyard and we couldn’t be happier with the result. Pamela’s designs were beautiful, the team was efficient and professional, and now our backyard looks and feels like a park! We highly recommend them and we can’t wait to work with Pamela and team again on our front yard!

I hired Debah Landscape Designs to repair a severe drainage problem in my steep back yard. There was a lot of erosion happening from rain and snow spilling over our upper wall. Pamela ad her crew used a camera to locate a crack in the existing. underground pipe. They also increased the height of the wall and installed a new drainage system to combat those problems. They were extra careful to to disturb much of my lawn. I was very impressed with their engineering sense and problem solving skills. I’m planning to hire them in the Spring for plantings. I would highly recommend them. They were a delight to work with.

Pamela and her team were excellent at transforming our small backyard into a beautiful usable space. We were very happy with how she handled all aspects of the project, from the initial design and township permit process to the final installation of our hardscaping and landscaping. She is also just very easy to communicate with and was prompt at responding to us throughout the project by text, email, and phone. Would definitely work with her again!

The one word to describe my experience with dabah landscape design is “magical”. Specifically, Pamela Dabah is a unique and talented visionary. All professional and 100% present. First, practical matters: Guess what? She called back, she showed up, she listened, she heard, she provided feedback, she collaborated, she provided an accurate quote and then yes, she showed up again and got the job done to beyond my 100% satisfaction.

Working with Pamela Dabah is like working with no other contractor. She really listens to what her client is saying. With me, not so easy. I presented a messy front hill, with overgrown shrubs and drainage issues, I wanted a giant boulder or two included in the landscape. I wanted help creating a “woodland retreat” in a little grove of trees, I needed help putting order and grace to a beloved but overgrown garden and lastly, I wanted a fence. But not just an ordinary fence. It needed to be art, it needed to be made of natural materials, and I wanted to use found objects. Not an easy client.

She broke it down into manageable pieces. The messy front became a beautiful rock garden. She brought in a guy who is THE rock guy. They artfully placed gigantic boulders moving them 1/2” this way, a tilt that way until Pamela was satisfied. It was watching art being created. Next the front landscaping. perfect for me. Not too composed, easy to maintain, and she included some of my favorites - she made them work. She re-located old, old shrubs to save them. She has deep respect for the Earth, nature and preservation.

She was able to restore order to my garden and suggested how to use found objects in the landscape. Off I went and I had the pleasure and satisfaction of participating and helping with the creation. Another contractor would have been all ego. Pamela is about art, compassion, listening and skillful execution.

My woodland retreat is precious. So simple and something that had eluded me for years. “1, 2, 3” and Pamela and her guys created a beautiful, natural and peaceful space.

And last but not least, my fence/screen - Pamela listened to me, heard what I was saying, sat with me to look through books, then walked around my property and poked into the garage. She emerged with my stash of 100 year old windows which I couldn’t bear to dispose of, some trellis and part of a picket fence and with patience and an eye to precision, built a unique, wonderful and playful fence (I still need to choose the paint color).

That’s it. She is stuck with me - I will never go to another landscape designer.

We hired Shannon from Dabah Landscape Designs to renovate our tired pool space. We had a very tall order with our backyard goals and the Dabah team was able to meet it within our budget. Shannon came up with a fresh design scheme that allowed us to realize the potential of our backyard. Shannon helped me with visualizing the design as I had difficulty envisioning. They changed up the curves around the pool patio, added some pockets of plants and installed a grand staircase to an upper terrace. Shannon selected a budget friendly paver that looks exactly like brick. The finished product is so elegant and looks like we spent a ton. We love showing off and entertaining in our new backyard. They were able to move some existing lamp posts to accommodate the new layout. And they built a lovely staircase utilizing some of our existing stone that was unearthed and combined it was new bluestone pieces- the end result is beautiful!

We are so pleased with Dabah Designs. We worked mostly with Shannon for an overhaul of the landscaping the front of the house. She listened carefully to my aesthetic and was able to use that to come up with a landscape design that I would not have been able to do on my own. We are so pleased with the work that was done (from design and planning to execution) and are really looking forward to seeing the landscape grow into itself and change with the seasons. She was also very respectful of our budget. We highly recommend Dabah Designs to anyone looking for professional landscape design and implementation.

Pamela is an exceptional artist. Not only is she quick to respond, but she offers amazing ideas drawing from her many years of experience. She is professional, honest and her prices are fair. It’s refreshing to meet a contractor that really cares about their work. Pamela works with pride and integrity. Nough’ said!
— Howard Gorman

Recommend without hesitation for A+ design, install and customer service. Our walkout basement patio is more beautiful than I’d even imagined. Pam was a pleasure to deal with and helped navigate HOA guidelines and special requests. Patio completed on time and budget and clean up was thorough. Wish I’d called Dabah Landscape years ago!

We were looking for a Landscape Designer who could create a new deck and patio as well as solve some serious drainage issues in our backyard. This brought us to Dabah Landscaping Designs. Designing our new backyard was easy. Pamela Dabah (owner of the company) came out to the house last fall, took many notes and came up with an initial design and proposal based on our wish list. Needless to say, our wish list did not match our budget. Pamela and Shannon were very good about modifying and re-drawing the plans many times until we had one, we liked and fell into our budget. When the work commenced this spring, we expected a 3-4-week job (which is what we were told), but issues began popping up everywhere. The drainage turned out to be a far bigger issue than any of us thought and the copious amount of rain this spring didn’t help either. Our 3-4-week job quickly turned into a much longer project and at times we felt like our job was not the priority. There were days when only one person was working, or no one was working. The crew that works for Dabah Landscape Designs are fantastic, they were all very hard-working and talented craftsmen. After about 12 weeks, the job was finally finished, and we were extremely pleased with the results. There was some frustration along the way, but Pamela was very good at working through any issue that popped up and more importantly Pamela stands by her work. Since the job was completed anytime we had a question or needed something she was on it. We love our new deck and patio and are outside enjoying it as much as possible. The plantings are gorgeous, and the outdoor lighting is fantastic. We would definitely recommend Dabah Landscape Designs. Steve and Lori Rapp

Working with Pamela and the Dabah team was a pleasure. We were very pleased with the results of our back yard redesign.
— Florian Matias
I was very impressed by the team from Dabah. Shannon Savage designed a new landscape plan for our entire property and was very attentive to the ideas we had in mind. As the project progressed Shannon was there every step of the way and continued to work with us to tweak the design as we saw it unfold. The hardscape installation crew, led by Benny, was courteous and solicited our input along the way. I highly recommend Shannon and everyone at Dabah
— Stan Layton
Dabah Landscape has been a pleasure to work with on our project which included hardscape, carpentry, lighting, and numerous plantings. From design through implementation, they have been super easy to work with — responsive, pleasant, reliable, honest, and capable. They made many visits for different parts of the project, including several toward the end for various changes to make sure we get everything just right, and there was never any stress or any trouble. We are delighted with the result.

We hired Shannon Savage to help us redesign our underutilized backyard. Not only did we love the new patio layout design, but also Dabah Landscape Design exceeded our expectations on the backyard renovation. We highly recommend Shannon and the team at Dabah.

Dabah Landscape Designs (Pamela & Shannon) did an excellent job on the design and installation on our front embankment. Our home is a Historic Victorian (built in 1888). We needed professional knowledge with plant selections for the period of home and a design that worked within our budget. We found Pamela and Shannon a joy to work with. We would highly recommend Dabah Landscape Designs.

I wanted to install a pergola in my backyard but everyone I consulted either didn’t want to do such a small job or were not willing to do it my way. Feeling frustrated, I called Pamela and was pleasantly surprised by the service. Not only was Dabah Landscape willing to work on my project but they listened to my ideas. They were professional and took the responsibility of seeing the job done to my satisfaction. I am very thankful that I found them when I did.
— Rita Roy
Absolutely gorgeous. I am very interested in getting the plans for the type of flowers and how many this project took.

We hired Pamela to design and build a stone retain wall for us. Pamela’s design work was spot on with what we were looking for. Her team are true craftsman and very professional. I would highly recommend Pamela and her team and I am looking forward to having them work on other projects for us at our house.

It’s rare these days to find someone that is knowledgeable, creative, honest and takes pride in the work that they do. Pamela returns all phone calls (also a rarity these days), and is very willing to work within your budget. When I find a contractor with integrity, I stick with them. I was more than happy with the work that she did (drainage problems, mulch, pruning, seeding and planting a tree) and would be quick to refer Dabah to anyone that is looking for landscaping work. There is more work that I will need next year and I wouldn’t even consider calling anyone else! Good luck

Extremely quick service, best rates in the area and they do a fantastic job. I like that they have real expertise in design, not just maintenance, so they can actually redo your whole exterior not just keep it clean and tidy.
