He had the project done on time and on budget and left the worksite cleaner than he found it. He is also a flexible and creative problem-solver and helped us with a couple other renovation challenges when he finished our shed. We highly recommend him! **★★★★★ — friedabrooks, Oct. 2015** > Steve from Backyard Works built us a fabulous shed a few years ago. Steve was able to plan and design exactly what we wanted, and also gave additional ideas for customizing the shed for sports equipment, tools, etc. We were very pleased with the results and the shed was a great storage for us all year round. Not only was the inside what we wanted, the outside was designed to look like a smaller version of our house, so the shed fit in perfectly. > Steve completed the shed in a very timely manner and came within budget. > Thanks, Steve for the great job, we get many complements on the shed! > > Frieda Brooks, North Vancouver **★★★★ — richard587, Oct. 2015** > Planning, quality of work, attitude, flexibility, and ease to work with all great. If you are looking for this type of work Steven Curtis and Backyard Works is a great place to look. **★★★★★ — tmavor, Oct. 2015** > We hired BACKYARD WORKS to build us a well needed 8x8 Lean-to-Shed in our back yard. Steve Curtis was very professional, well organized in all aspects and a pleasure to work with. His work is outstanding and I learned a lot from him by watching his craftsmanship and attention to detail. I have recommended him to many of my neighbours, who have admired my shed and he would be my first call for future projects! > Todd **★★★★★ — Ruth van hoof, Oct. 2015** > I am completely in love with my backyard multifunctional sun studio..guest room...a dream fulfilled! > It s like being in nature....rain or shine☺! > Steve Curtis is focused on providing the absolute best product and overall experience for his customers. > His workmanship is meticulous. > He is a great communicator...open to suggestions and happy to give suggestions...always pleasantly professional. > Thank you again Steve! **★★★★★ — Terry Harborne-Short, Oct. 2015** > We were in need of two sheds. One attached to the home and one stand alone. I was so pleased to find Backyard Works (Steve) who was able to make this happen. They both were just perfect! When the Sheds were complete he was able to do a renovation on the downstairs of our home rec-room /Bedroom. **★★★★★ — laloge, Oct. 2015** > We had an 8' x 10' shed built by Steve. To say it was a shed is an understatement. The finished product looked like a small cottage complete with a window, French doors, sidelights and stonework along the lower third of the walls. Steve's workmanship was excellent. He used quality materials and cut no "corners". He had great attention to detail and was able to work well with us as we changed a few things during the course of the project. We would definitely work with him again. > > Ray an Janet Holme **★★★★★ — tonkinchip, Oct. 2015** > We love our shed. It has added value to our storage challenged home and provided safe dry place to store those things that do not fit in our home. What we most like is that it matches the house, is well built. Thanks Curtis. ## Selected projects - [Attewell Garden Studio](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/attewell-garden-studio-pj-vj~1207310) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 3 - [Donnelly Shed](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/donnelly-shed-pj-vj~1222284) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 4 - Description: Shed any ideas that a garden shed has to be a dark dreary place.
