“I’m met David A Burnett many years ago, when he was working on the landscaping team doing work on my property. He was very kind and hard-working and he had a real eye for detail. He also had a natural knack for making sure the customer was very satisfied with the work - listening attentively to their needs - and going above and beyond to source materials that would work within the budget, solve the design issue, and please the customer.
When he transitioned to another landscape design firm, I hired him again because of his knowledge, excellent work ethic and outstanding customer service.
I have always known David to be extremely detail oriented, with deep knowledge of plants, trees, shrubbery, design, color, aesthetics, problem solving, and if necessary, repair. He does it all, from pulling weeds, to designing and installing elaborate holiday lighting and decor on a grand scale for showcase homes.
He is creative, hard working, kind, results-driven, and easy to work with. He is also known for his exacting punctuality and professional demeanor.
As I have gotten to know him over the years, I’ve discovered he also possesses deep knowledge of all aspects of home, garden, pool and hardscape maintenance; lighting, decor and floral design; as well as special event and travel planning. Additionally, he has experience in all aspects of emerging technology, especially regarding home security.
He is the kind of person that starts as an experienced contractor, then becomes and also remains a dear friend.
Hire David, you’ll be glad you did!”

“David has become an invaluable part of our household, helping to manage our large estate with a level of dedication and skill that consistently exceeds expectations. With a busy family life and two young children, having someone we trust to oversee everything from property upkeep to special projects has made all the difference. David designed and helped plant our stunning pollinator gardens, which have become a true highlight of the property and a source of joy for our whole family. He approaches every task with care and creativity, and his attention to detail ensures that everything runs smoothly—even when we’re juggling hectic schedules.
What sets David apart is not just his professionalism, but the warmth and integrity he brings to his work. Our kids absolutely adore him, and he’s someone we can count on without hesitation—even entrusting him with the care of our elderly pet when we’re away. David is fair, honest, knowledgeable, and easy to get along with, making him both a reliable estate manager and a genuinely pleasant presence in our lives. I would recommend him wholeheartedly to anyone in need of thoughtful, trustworthy support for their home or estate.”

“I had the good fortune of meeting David via a business relationship, but now consider him a very close friend of the family. We met over 15 years ago and I can
authoritatively comment on the many considerable attributes. While still very young, David projects an extremely mature person and consistently demonstrates behavior reflecting an unusually high emotional IQ. The wonderful qualities lead David to be empathetic, but demanding the best of others; engaging and pleasant, but highly motivated and self driven; modest but very intelligent and insightful. In our business relationship, David has never deviated from optimal ethical practices and I can unequivocally state that his moral compass never fails to point anywhere other than virtuous behavior. David is establishing himself as a respected and notable member of the Philadelphia community. As a Naval office I learned much about service and duty to the country driven by patriotism. David has fervent love for our country and this type of love is the quality that I cherished most in the men and women I previously served with. In short, I could count on David to behave honorably if called on duty. On a personal note, David also has become a friend of my wife and children. He is an “adopted” member of the family. I have had the pleasure of spending considerable time with David at social events. He literally lights up the room with his interesting and lively conversation.”
