Get matched with top asphalt driveway pros in Pawnee, OK

"As long as Nathan (the owner) was there, things went pretty well.  When he was gone his workers tended to try and take a lot of shortcuts in hopes they wouldn't be noticed.  Just a matter of pointing out the shortcuts to Nathan and having his crew do it right.  Somewhat typical I'd say of most hired hands in this sort of business.
They removed the decades-old azaleas and monkey grass and replanted various new shrubs.  In a perfect world the landscape designer would engineer a drawing and go from there.  I didn't see the need for that so we just sketched some stuff out and went for it.  In the end, I think we got just as good a product by winging it and letting Nathan make some on-the-fly decisions than we would have if we'd spend the money on some fancy drawings that probably would have gotten changed during the installation anyway.  Nathan's group brought in some hardscape which I think they did a really nice job installing and blending in.  As will all landscaping it is sort of designed to be sparse since it is supposed to grow together over the years.  So it looks a little thin now, but it'll be just fine in a few years.
This is purely my opinion, but I think they may have mixed in a little too much fertilizer/manure when they reworked the soil.  A lot of the plants exhibited some burning rather quickly which makes me think they got some root burn. They all are coming out of it, but there was definitely a pull-back on 90% of the landscaping within the first couple of weeks.  But that appears to have halted and I'm seeing some new growth appear from the soil upwards.  I would say it is more than just transplant shock.
Nathan cut me a deal since I waited until the end of summer when his business drops off rather than trying to get something done in the spring when he is swamped.  Landscaping is just expensive no matter what.  I'd use Bluum/Nathan again if I had the need to.  On the communications side, I'd say he communicates better than most contractors which is something I always appreciate.

When he said they were going to be here he was. I have huge roof and they were done in 2 days. He also helped with suggestions, and was just a great experience."
