**★★★★★ — Robert Harson, June 2022**

> Absolutely Outdoors did a wonderful job of designing and installing our extensive landscape project for our entire property. Everyone was very professional and courteous throughout the project. We knew going in that our tastes were quite particular and Absolutely Outdoors bent over backwards to make sure we were completely satisfied with the design and installation. There were a few hiccups during the installation of the project, including some last-minute changes on our part, but they didn’t miss a step in making corrections as well as accommodating our last-minute requests.
>
> I would highly recommend Absolutely Outdoors for all of your landscaping needs, and we continue to you them to this day for our weekly yard maintenance.

**★★★★★ — User, Dec. 2015**

> Barry S
> We have used Absolutely Outdoors on several projects from landscaping to pool and outdoor living space design and construction. We could not be more pleased with their work and job performance. I would recommend them to anyone who is planning a project and wants quality work and outstanding design.

**★★★★★ — kat776, Oct. 2014**

> Absolutely Outdoors was the only company that responded to our initial call for a contractor within a reasonable amount of time. We had a pavilion and small fountain built by them recently. It is difficult for us to complete projects because of our work & travel schedule. We were able to do almost all communication and review of project details by email. This helped a lot and allowed us to finish a project that we have discussed for years. Their office staff was also extremely helpful through the process.

**★★★★ — k\_trout10, Oct. 2014**

> We hired Absolutely Outdoors to design & build our pool and porch extension. They had the most impressive designs out of all 3 companies we interviewed. It was in fact a very detailed project and they took the time to consider every last detail which was my biggest concern from the beginning. I found all their employees to be courteous and professional throughout the process. I would say that we are very pleased with this project after the long term of construction and would recommend them to our friends.

**★ — kschardein, June 2014**

> Initial install of landscape met our expectations for a $10,000.00 + project.  We pay for a maintenance program so that the plants are guaranteed.  ($135.00 a month).   Project was complete at the beginning of November.  After many freezes this winter, plants look pretty bad and many have not come back.  This is the end of June.  If they provide the service that I have paid for all of these months, the plants would have been replaced or never allowed to die in the first place.  In an eight month period, I have seen them twice.  I have 4 children and stay at home.  Looking to begin our large backyard landscape project but Absolutely Outdoors will not be our landscapers and I cannot recommend them with good conscience .

**★ — lllayers, May 2014**

> If you are looking for a company with an amazing receptionist and a crew that can build a patio then look no further than Absolutely Outdoors. But, if punctuality, accountability, communication and follow through are important to you DO NOT USE Absolutely Outdoors. What they represented as a 3 week project has turned into a 2 month project and they are still not completely finished. Take our word for it...hire another company!

**★★★★★ — rosesare4me, Oct. 2013**

> I got a landscape and irrigation installation and from  initial contact all the way through the installation i got my questons answer and they were willing to make changes to suit my taste and budget. The sod was healthy, and plants looked very nice almost like someone  hand picked each one. I am happy thereceptionist girl was super helpful and very attentative to my needs/wants i felt like she actully cared! Her personability was as fresh as her seasonal name (befitting) . The sales repwas informative and did a wonderful job of putting all my and his thoughts on paper then seeing it come to.life!!!
