After many failed attempts to find an architect to take on our massive backyard renovation, I met Preston. I met Preston at the hair salon my husband and I own. We instantly clicked. I called him the following day he immediately came out to look at our project. I was already impressed as previous phone calls with other designers regularly didn't even give a call back! We were so excited to not only have found someone who wanted to take on our project, but found someone who was obviously skilled and professional. Not only was Preston easy to work with but his crew was amazing as well! The crew was always on time and worked so hard on completing things as timely as possible. They were never being pulled away by a million other jobs like other renovations I have had done in the past with other contractors. Amazing communication! Great eye for design! Punctual! Had so much fun collaborating and working as a team. He's also the sweetest dam person you'll ever meet! I cannot speak more highly of Preston. Our backyard is the hilight of our house! Check out the before and after shots !🙌

I have worked with Preston at Earth Artisans on several projects. I promise you that you will not find a more detailed, committed customer focused person. Preston is also at the top of his game with design build projects. Prestons designs give you a clear picture of what will be built and making you feel very comfortable about the look and investment made.

Preston and his team are absolutely incredible, I could not recommend them more highly! We interviewed several companies for our large project and Earth Artisans was able to beautifully complete a scope of work that others told us was either impossible or would cost twice as much. They absolutely transformed our outdoor space, complete with a large new patio, gorgeous stonework and huge fireplace, giant pergola, hot tub deck with privacy shade, 3,000 square feet of new yard space (which required doing a LOT of land moving to make flat yard out of previously hilly areas), and a big fence for privacy. We couldn't be more thrilled with the result and are grateful to Preston and his team every day when we enjoy our wonderful new outdoor space. On top of the quality of his work, Preston is also fantastic to collaborate with - we threw him a lot of curveballs over more than a year of work and he handled all of them with absolute grace, creativity, and good humor. Thank you, Preston, for everything!

We worked with Preston at Earth Artisans on a design for our entire property (front yard, backyard, deck, patio), with an emphasis on solving a drainage problem. Throughout the design phase, Preston listened to what we wanted and also brought his unique ideas to the table. Preston came out to our property several times to visualize things himself and take se measurements. We also met with him several times to iterate through the design process so Preston could make sure we were getting exactly what we wanted. Together, we created a design that not only solved our problems, but also looked fantastic! He provided a 3D video of what the final product would look like, along with a detailed breakdown and schematics as a PDF. We are very satisfied with the design process and the final product. We also worked with Preston for a “Phase 1” of construction where he coordinated our project with a contracting crew to solve our drainage problem. This project involved turning an unsightly and poorly functioning ditch into a beautiful dry stream bed that would catch all the water running onto our property and direct it away from the house. Preston ran interference between us and the contractors, making sure that their work matched our design. Preston definitely saved us when the crew was underestimating the scale of our water problem. Our new stream bed and usable yard is both gorgeous and functional.

Preston is an artist when it comes to designing space! He helped us envision our kitchen and outdoor living pavilion and exceeded our expectations. His crew was respectful and consistent and kept us informed of every detail and stayed on track with the agreed upon schedule. Preston is an expert on the local requirements, environmental needs and blending your present colors/style with your future design. Overall we just loved working with Preston! Personally, he’s just a great guy-honest, genuine and fun to be around! Want white glove treatment? Hire Earth Artisans!

Earth Artisans: From Backyard Bland to Backyard Wonderland Forget HGTV makeovers; our backyard transformation courtesy of Earth Artisans was pure magic! We knew we were in good hands when we met Preston Whitfield, owner and resident landscape visionary. His infectious enthusiasm and keen eye for outdoor harmony instantly put us at ease. Before Earth Artisans touched it, our backyard was a sad wasteland of rock, weeds, and forgotten dreams. Preston saw something different, a hidden gem waiting to be unearthed. He listened to our (admittedly vague) desires for a relaxing sanctuary, a space for entertaining, and a touch of Zen amidst the suburban chaos. Then, he worked his hardscape alchemy. The finished product is beyond anything we could have imagined. A stunning natural stone patio nestled beneath a custom-built pergola has become the heart of our home, the perfect spot for cozy evenings grilling with friends or morning coffee bathed in sunlight. It's not just the beauty, though. Preston and his team at Earth Artisans are as meticulous as they are creative. The craftsmanship is impeccable, from the precise stonework to the meticulous drainage system that ensures our oasis remains pristine even through the Colorado winters and after the stormiest downpour. They were communicative, respectful of our property, and always happy to answer questions and accommodate our (frequent) whims. Earth Artisans isn't just a landscaping company; it's an art form. They don't just build patios; they sculpt outdoor dreamscapes. And if you're lucky enough to have Preston Whitfield translate your backyard vision into reality, consider yourself blessed. Our transformed backyard is a testament to his talent, a daily reminder that even the blandest spaces can blossom into something truly extraordinary. So, if you're tired of staring at that dusty patch of potential, take a leap of faith and call Earth Artisans. Tell them I sent you, and get ready to see your backyard transformed from bland to wonderland! Five plus stars (if that's even enough!) - A forever-fan Earth Artisans customer
