In Situ Garden Design, LLC

In Situ is GREAT. I've had a few minor projects in the last year and was delighted to work with them on a larger design for a courtyard in Hells Kitchen. In Situ marries design talent and professionalism so effortlessly that they are a joy to work with. The install went seamlessly and I was impressed with the team's clean and efficient execution.

I had an amazing experience recreating my rooftop balcony into a beautiful oasis of green. Artistically designed and worked along with my budget!

Sebastian Trujillo, an advertised landscape designer and horticulturist, arranged and installed my Brooklyn Brownstone backyard garden last summer, 2024. Now it is almost a year, 2025 and many of the plants shriveled up and died. Unsustainable. I am disappointed and dissatisfied. And invested thousands of dollars. He refuses to have a conversation---experts don't make mistakes? And he blames the customer. As a homeowner, it is more than recuperating some of my investment, it is about quality work and making providers accountable. What is more disheartening, Thumbtack is unable to substantiate or scrutinize---vet their experts. Mr. Trujillo is unprofessional and unwilling to assess the garden, his work, and the outcome. My advice is to be careful and accordingly, do your due diligence. Sebastian website is questionable. I hope with further assistance, my garden renovation and remodeling situation will improve with a remedy that I can live with. I have already submitted a claim without readdress. These are a few photo examples.

I was delighted with the work In Situ did, completing the job in one day, as promised. They were prompt, hard-working and Sebastian had good advice and ideas about my garden.

This review is way overdue! Sebastian was so great to work with. A true collaborator. He brought his vision to my project, heard my own vision for it, and found a way to bring the best of both visions to the work at hand. He and his workers were on time and worked their buns off. They removed a huge amount of debris and weeds and what remained was a clean, reshaped garden that was not only ready for the winter, but is ready with bulbs for spring. I will definitely be bringing him back to make sure this projects keeps looking its best. Check out the amazing before and after photos! THANKS SEBASTIAN! SEE YOU IN THE SPRING!

I met the contractor and wanted some tress removed and moved to a new location however it wind up that was something I could go. Do we both decided he was do a landscaping design in planter boxes I reached out to Sebastian several times. Twice he told me he sent a email and then I spoke with him and he said the same thing again well 3 weeks later I have never heard back from him. I also had expressed I wanted to hire him but when u don’t follow up or even tell the customer u might be to busy or u don’t want to take on the job. I find this unprofessional and rude. My time was wasted waiting for Sebastian. If someone doesn’t get back to you in a timely fashion it reflects his character
