Contracting installed my fibreglass pool and IPE Deck a few years ago and we couldn't be happier.

I recommended M.E. to my friends and family. I can confidently say they deliver luxury service and quality second to none! **★★★★★ — HU-767034694, Aug. 2025** > M.E Contracting is a trustworthy business with clear communication and their hard work lives up to our expectations. I highly recommend them! **★★★★★ — HU-741903790, Aug. 2025** > Very happy we went with ME for our backyard project. I appreciated Daryl validating our design thoughts and he offered great suggestions as well to help us move forward with this project. The project was only slightly over budget due to a door that was no longer available and had to be custom made. With all of the various trades required to complete our backyard project, it was understandable why the project took a little longer than estimated. If you’re looking for a landscaping company that can help you realize your design ideas and see it through to completion, we recommend ME. **★★★★★ — HU-543226713, Aug. 2025** > From the very first consultation with Daryl to the final product all completed, the team was incredible.

From start to finish, the team was professional, friendly, and really listened to what I wanted. My backyard looks absolutely incredible now!

Definitely worth every penny! **★★★★★ — HU-317908341, Aug. 2025** > My pool and deck look incredible. Everything was done on time and the quality is top notch.
