Paradise Designs Leadership Team

Founded in a Dana Point garage by brothers Tom and Jeff Garton, Paradise Designs centered family life and building beautiful landscapes where their clients could make shared memories with their own families and friends.

Since those humble beginnings, Paradise Designs has built a team of creative landscape designers, experienced supervisors, project coordinators, detail-oriented crews and courteous customer service personnel.

“Our goal is to simplify the process for our clients with our Design-Build approach. By having the capabilities to communicate directly with our in-house crews, we provide a seamless and effective process by which we achieve customer satisfaction.”

We listen, DESIGN, bid, communicate, BUILD, adhere to budgets, show up on time, finish on time, have conversations, answer phones, take messages, return phone calls, coordinate, stand behind our work, count on your satisfaction and offer MAINTENANCE services to sustain the look and life of your landscapes.
