"Mike and his crew did an amazing job on my covered pergola . All quality materials every detail was on point even down to extra decorative pieces that I was not expecting just to give it that pop of quality work. I am not an easy person to work for as I expect a lot on a job site . I want you to do a job as if you were doing it for yourself and they did just that ."

"Got quotes fair price first was going to be extra because of all the leaves that needed to be picked up and extra trim leaves were never picked up, then next schedule date no show a week later they came by only did the back because they were running late and would come back the following week to do the front yard that never happened. When I called their office and explained this to the lady she stated she would talk to owner and would get back to me that never happened then a couple of weeks later one of their works knocked to see if I needed service I stated the above and said yes please he started to blow the leaves out front five minutes later they were gone and paid each time. I called their office and this time I spoked to the owner he stated the same as the lady before him and I got the same results no replies and now they avoid my calls."

"The whole project went well. I am very happy with the way it turned out. I plan to hire them again for future projects."

"Our family has worked with Robert and his team multiple times since the 90s. From the first renovation in 1994, to a 2019 addition/extension to the same home, to recent work preparing to sell our rental property, Robert has been our go-to guy. His work is outstanding. His crew is hard-working, respectful, and responsible (and just really fun guys to be around!) He approaches everything with such pride, and he provides outstanding guidance all the way through. It's like working with family - Robert has really become part of ours all these years!"

"I was referred to Jodi based on good feedback I heard from a Holistic Event here. It was a very insightful consultation and I decided to try Cbd to help with my anxiety. Jodi also recommended l-theanine, which I purchased at peoples pharmacy. The Cbd I purchased through Jodi and over the past 3 weeks, I have felt a significant improvement. I appreciated her telling e to keep my doctor in the loop, and is very educated about herbs and EFT techniques. Very happy with her services."

"Initially we were excited to work with Matt and Sunnie Channel- Matt has great charisma and talked over details with us about a deck design we came up with- offering tips on what he would do differently and truly appearing to care about the project. They provided a great design that we were happy with so we decided to move forward with Southern Outdoor Appeal. We signed our contract in February 2024 with written assurance that the project would be complete by the end of May/first week of June as I was planning my daughters 2nd birthday party that was going to be held in the backyard and needed it to be complete by then. Months went by without any movement. I began emailing asking when we would expect to begin framing, worried we were pushing close to the end of May and no work had begun and I was met with many excuses. I was then informed Matt tried to subcontract the job and was planning to keep the 30% deposit we placed in February and there was no discussion about this with him or Sunnie. They expected the company they were trying to dump our project on to eat this cost and finish what had not even begun. It all unraveled more from here when I personally spoke with three other neighbors in Circle C who were dealing with the same situation. Some of these families lost much more than the almost $6k we put down. 1+ years have gone by without movement for some of these other families which is appalling. They are STILL met with excuses as to why no work has been completed but are so financially invested they don’t know what to do. When my husband called to cancel the project and request our 30% deposit back (as no work AT ALL had begun), he was met with resistance from Matt. He even mentioned my daughters birthday party as a reason not to cancel the project- trying to guilt us into continuing the project so we could host the party. From our perspective, he likely had no intention to ever begin the project/or could have begun framing and halted work after receiving more payment installations-as is the case with other families in the Circle C area. On top of all of this- Matts wife, Sunnie, finally replied to one of my many emails regarding refund after I offered to pay $1000 for two 20min or less visits by Matt for his “time” but asked they pay the difference from the 30% deposit. In her email, she agreed to this repayment plan and even sent a credit memo. I waited months and never received any money. She finally cancelled my Venmo request days ago (which is how I initially paid them)- indicating she has no intention of fulfilling her side of the deal. They have no right to my or anyone else’s money as it appears they are not using it toward its intended purpose. God forbid something awful is going on behind closed doors for their family but if that’s the case, don’t even start a project you know you can’t finish. It is not fair to the people who are investing/trusting them. I highly encourage anyone considering working with them to not. Do not make the same mistake we did."

"Needed to replace a 20 year old hot tub. Visited multiple Spa Sales establishments throughout Austin. Quickly determined that Spa Expo had the most helpful, knowledgeable staff and offered the best options for our preferences. . The entire process from product selection to removal of old tub and installation of new spa was seamless and 100% professional. To be honest I can’t remember when I experienced such a positive, pleasant business transaction. We are totally pleased with our new Hot Springs Spa and look forward to a long-term association with Felipe Castaneda and his team at Spa Expo. I would do business again with this establishment in a heart beat."

"I've previously written a 5 star review for this company (May 2018) after they installed new sod in our front and backyard, replaced the irrigation system and had a fence put in. All in all, it was over $10k worth of work and it was done exceptionally well. After the work was done, we used the landscaping services every few months to clean up the edges of the yard (in addition to our weekly mowing we do ourselves). We have always paid the standard $45 per visit and were happy with the service provided. One month ago we scheduled this same service and I was told that the new price was "$45 per man hour, including 3 workers". I took that to mean I would be charged per hour now instead of the flat fee for the visit. Well imagine my shock when our card was charged $170!!!!! For lawn mowing, edging and mowing the dirt areas close to the ground. The same exact service we have been getting for the past 18 months! In fact the service this past visit was well below the standards of previous visits. I have spoken with numerous office staff regarding the ridiculousness of this price. They said that the price is now $45 per MAN per HOUR! The yard people were here for 1 hour and 15 mins. It took so long because they first blew all the leaves into the grass, mulching them in and turning our yard completely brown. We are selling our house need it to look perfect so I had to ask them to please rake it all off the lawn. This resulted in an extra 30 mins of work. Besides that mess, WHO PAYS $170 to have their lawn mowed?!?!?!?!?! Our yard is not even a large yard by any stretch. After fighting them on this for the past 2 weeks, I received a refund of 20% ($30). I am so deeply disappointed in this company for rearranging words in their pricing in order to charge 4 TIMES the amount as before. It is such a shame they have resorted to doing business this way. I will never use this company or recommend them to any of my friends or neighbors again."

"Hired Alphonse of Alphascapes and paid him by credit card a 50% deposit to replace my tile in 2023. He never came back to start the job. After waiting 8 months I asked for a refund and he promised to bring a check. He has never refunded my money."

"Steven came out the same day I called to give me a quote and get the work scheduled. The crew completed the work on time and on budget. They did a great job."
