Services we offer
Landscape plantings, design and installation. Hardscaping to include patios, walks and driveways using paving brick and stone. We build retaining walls using man made materials and natural stone. We build decks.
OUTDOOR ENTERPRISES INC redid a portion of our yard where there was pea gravel previously. They removed the pea gravel and laid pavers. They have also done part of a brick parking pad for us in the past. We are extremely happy with their past work. By mistake, we hired another company for a new project, and we wish we hadn't. We will not make that mistake again in the future! Rob and his group are outstanding! Very, very good! No short cuts are taken with their services.
Description of Work: We hired OUTDOOR ENTERPRISES INC to do landscaping work.

The two stone patios and the walkway have a sand product used that was supposed to harden but never did. Shortly after the installation when it rained the sticky sand started to wash out. It also splashed up onto the sliding glass Door & garden Shed door. When I walked over the walkway the sand stuck to my shoes. I contacted him before December and in early Spring and he didn?t return my calls. In April we had a garden show & I complained to Math owner of Countryside Fence, who gave me Outdoor Enterprises name and a week later Rob finally called me and left a message on my answering machine, which I have saved. This is the phone message that Rob left me: ? Good morning Anna Mae, this is Rob Schultz, first of all the time you called before I was out of state for a month. I ran into Math at the home show after I got back and he said he was doing some stuff at your house and I asked him to convey the message that I would not be able to do anything about any of the situations until spring anyway. The last time you called I was gone but there is nothing I can do until the snow is done and not freezing out anymore. Once that happens I will give you a call when in combination with the seeding I will come over and look at it.? I keep calling Rob and leaving messages at his home and cell phone, but he doesn?t return any. The ants have been building their homes in the stone patio?s and walkway and so have the weeds. This was not supposed to happen. The weed free black dirt that Rob put in the retaining wall and for the grass he was going to come back and plant in spring was full of weeds. I had to plant the grass in spring because he would not come back. I finally took pictures in June 2013 of the patios and walkway and also the weeds growing in Robs weed free black dirt.
Description of Work: Robert Schulz of Outdoor Enterprises put in a retaining wall which has two stone patios and also a walkway made out of the same stone and a deck.

Response from OUTDOOR ENTERPRISES INC
The product used is Sandlock supplied to me by Pave Tech. It is an organic joint stabilizer. As described by the company "When activated with water, Sandlock forms a natural, rubberized glue that binds the joint sand. Sandlock remains flexible and will accomidate thermal movement. It's self healing properties allow Sandlock to rebind loosened material with any moisture." I described the properties to the customer that when wet it is flexible, and when dry it is hard. When we finished the installation, we swept in the Sandlock, and compacted the pavers. This left the Sandlock slightly recessed between the pavers. This is the usual manner to leave it. The customer would not accept this and had us fill the spaces to the top. This would allow some of it to escape. I have used this product for the past 8 years and never had a complaint before. During the whole project, the customer was gruff, antagonistic, and somewhat abusive at times. She tried to hire one of my employees to work on the side for her. It took hours of arguing to get paid after the work was completed even though we did everything she asked. As far as the seeding, she said she would do it herself, and I left her the seed at no cost. I am not interested in any more arguements, nor am I going to do anything to change this since it is what she requested.
