They designed and installed the out door lighting with great equipment. Considering all the underground lighting; my yard looked better after they were done. All follow up adjustments, and there will be some, were taken care of promptly. I strongly recommend them for the creativity and professional installation.

Chris designed and installed a French drain system for a soggy corner of our backyard. He described the work and he and his crew completed it expertly. The drainage system is now connected to our downspout drain tiles and has solved the puddling we used to get after each rainfall. He also dug a large garden plot for us; removing the sod, roto-tilling, and adding rich planting soil. All work was completed in just two days! Chris communicated during the entire process, showing progress and answering questions along the way. Wonderful job! His crew cleaned up upon completion, and the yard looks great :) Chris even returned to check on his work after a heavy rain, to assure all was working as it should. Thanks, Chris!

We came into contact with Chris and his team at the Home and Garden show this year. We wanted to add up-lights to the landscape of our new home. It came out beautiful! We absolutely love it! As soon as we had a nice day, they were here installing. Chris is very knowledgable and has great communication skills. He returned to our house late at night twice to make sure the lights were angled just right and showed a great deal of concern for our satisfaction with the project. We are delighted with the outcome and the value for the price was fantastic. Highly recommend.

It went beautifully. Chris was a great communicator, and the work that he and his crew did is very professional. He worked hard to find free or inexpensive pavers that matched the existing ones because I needed just a few more. At the end of each work day, the yard was clean and tidy.

"I truly appreciate the work and your review! It was a great pleasure doing your project and fun to renovate your front yard and being able to re use your existing pavers. Its always nice to work for wonderful people!"

The patio design is beautiful and the quality of work is obvious. The landscape lights add the perfect touch and bring our home to life in the evening. The work Chris does exceeded our expectations and the final product was better than we could have imagined. Most importantly, Chris was diligent, professional, and a pleasure to work with.
