Get matched with top outdoor kitchen pros in Mcqueeney, TX

"Think twice before hiring this company. This review is based on how we were treated by the owner Donnie Ferguson. We hired Diamond Decks to install a patio cover in our backyard. The cover is beautiful. The material matches the house and the craftmanship of the fireplace, roof and woodwork are exactly what we wanted. Here’s where it all went wrong. The last job was to stain the concrete both existing and the new walkway we had them install. The crew did not power wash the 10-year-old concrete before staining. We contacted the project manager right away and asked why they were not power washing and he said the crew didn’t think it needed power washed. Ten years of dirt and they didn’t think it needed power washed? Prior to staining, the crew put samples of the color on the concrete and asked for approval of the color. They didn’t wait for the stain to dry but had us sign off on the color while it was wet. The certificate we signed says “Do not sign this certificate until all services have been satisfactorily performed and material supplied or goods received and found satisfactory.” Despite this warning they had us sign the certificate prior to the stain and seal being applied. Let me also point out that no one asked us what we wanted the stain to look like or guided us in any way to get the look we wanted. The stain looked nothing like we wanted so they came back and applied another color and seal and made it worse. We reached out to Donnie and let him know we were not happy with the stain. His resolution was to charge us another $10,000 to do an overlay on the two patios and then apply another stain. Donnie believed it was the old concrete that was the problem and thought we needed an overlay. We received quotes from two other companies to fix the stain. Neither company thought we needed an overlay. Instead they would remove the seal and stain and reapply the color we wanted. We again reached out to Donnie and respectfully asked for a reduction in our final payment of $7500 to fix the concrete stain. This was his reply: Absolutely not. We are experts and what we do and the color selection you picked does not need multiple coats. I do not care who you are getting your false information from. And you cannot remove foot print and terrible texture work that is in the concrete work we did not pour. The imperfections would be difficult for anyone to see because they are enhanced once the color and sealer are applied. This has one of the best sealer you can use and this is specifically why the form says DO NOT SIGN THIS FORM Unless you approve the color. It’s not an easy product to strip off hence the reason it last much longer and that’s why we use it. The balance owed is now past due $41628. I will need payment in full by the end of day or I will need to notify the attorneys that the contract breach is made. You’ve signed all the paperwork we asked of you and now you wanna insult us by telling us you want us to refund money cause you don’t like what you selected. This is the owner of the company, threatening, insulting and hostile. We of course were not in breach of contract and he knew it. They had just completed the work seven days ago. Again, think twice about hiring this company. They showed a total lack of concern about our dissatisfaction and blaming us for the results of the concrete stain. I will say that Casey, the project manager, was always professional and showed empathy for our concerns."

"We had a concrete sidewalk and a 12 X 11 pad poured. The team did a fantastic job and it looks great."

"Right on time. Did great work. Will use again."

"The tree was desperately needed soil and he provided of the things that needed and he did it immediately after I've had several landscapers called and they told me they couldn't get to me this week he came immediately and helped me out, he rescued me."

"This is the second project we had Eric and his crew do. Of course they did a spectacular job once more.They removed our weeds/grass and put down 8 yards of composted dirt, replaced our sprinklers and laid 3 pallets of palmetto st augustine. 1 month later it looks beautiful!!"

"They were the cheapest but not the best or fastest. I now have trenches left in my yard, some lines are barely buried 1" in the ground, and vaults not set flush that are 2" above grade. Gabriel didn't keep his schedule and showed up without notification multiple times even on the weekends. He would show up at 5 pm or later, work and hour and leave. He doesn't actually measure during planning, so what he originally quoted as a 9 zone sprinkler system ended up being 11 zones to cover my entire yard. He did add an additional zone at no additional cost, which was nice. If you want cheap, Gabriel is a good choice. If you want good or fast, I would go with someone else."

"Full interior remodel."

"I had a great experience working with Brian Swisher. I knew I wanted to make my backyard a place to work and relax. He talked to me and not at me, which I truly appreciate. After listening to everything I needed, Brian came up with an AMAZING solution with everything I wanted. He walked me through all the paver options that complimented my home and landscape. Brian's kind nature, attention to detail and creativity were impressive!"

"Advertised as fast and lower costs. Initially, I thought so but the price ended up being comparable to other professional pool service quotes. Response time was fast and serviceman friendly and approachable. Unable to fix the pool light for quoted cost, spa light was done under cost but no receipt for part or manual provided even when asked for. (Might have been an on hand part from a previous order or job). Felt more like a friendly neighbor helping out instead of a pool business. Pool cleaning service was quoted and then said to far to come weekly. Nice guy, fair job - get what you pay for."
