Introduction: I am an outdoor loving, efficiently working, reliable guy. I've designed and developed projects, ranging from roof/rain gardens and ponds to native landscapes and traditional layouts for the last 28+ years. I now offer the ability to Design & Build with 9 crews as a part of our team at MALA LLC. We build pools, spools, patios, retaining walls, fireplaces, fire pits, terraces and surrounding landscape and irrigation. We care about what we do and take pride in making sure every aspect of the project is handled with care and respect for our clients and their properties. My team provides adequate attention to detail and makes the entire process of the project an enjoyable experience. With my quarter century of experience, I always develop a great plan, competitive bid, and install the project exactly as designed in the set amount time the client gives me. My crew is amazing and gets the job done with perfection in mind and no hassles.

Michael and his crew fixed our drainage problem quickly and efficiently. Gave good advice on how the problem was going to be resolved, then fixed it. Workmanship was excellent and left the condition of the property better than when they started. Highly recommend this company for any of your landscaping or drainage work.

I enlisted the help of Michael Ashley Landscape Architect for a residential sod removal project. Not only was Michael quick to respond to my inquiry, he also provided the most competitive bid. To my delight, he was also able to complete the project less than a week after I excepted his bid. I didn’t mow my yard before the project because the city had come out and marked out the utility lines. When Michael got to the house, he said it wasn’t a problem and then offered to mow the yard for me at no additional charge. Now that is going above and beyond. Kudos to Michael and his team on a job well done and superior customer service!!!

Details: Residential • Small (less than 1,000 sq ft) • Installed onto existing lawn • Clear old grass or weeds • I will provide the sod

While we didn’t end up using Michael Ashley Landscaping (we put a hold on the patio because of personal reasons) I would definitely hire this company in the future. During the process of us deciding to use this company, Michael had to deal with some employee issues that he worked hard at resolving and communicated well with me. It is clear to me that he values his product and reputation. Much appreciated for the efforts!

Details: Pour new concrete • Patio or porch • Less than 500 sq ft • Home

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Sure. Most typical residential landscape plans are $800-1,000 for 1/3rd acre lot. If the project is larger than that, I can work hourly at $100/hr. Design fees can be refunded partially or fully if I build your project.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Introductions and find out a little bit about a person's background and family. Then, I get right down to business and explore the goals, wants, needs and defined budget for the project. Everyone is busy and there is not a lot of time to waste. I also strongly appreciate referrals.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a (BLA) bachelor degree in Landscape Architecture (5 year degree program that is now considered a Master's for the same work). I also minored in Horticulture and am passionate about plants.
