06Straight answers

Your fears,
addressed.

Hiring a contractor is risky. Here's exactly how we make it not risky.

Will you actually show up and finish the job?+

Yes. No deposit is required to book your start date — you pay 40% the day we show up, 40% midway, and 20% on completion. You only pay as we make progress, so you know the job will be finished.

What if the price changes mid-project?+

It won't. Our written quote is the price you pay. The only time cost changes is if you ask us to add or change scope — and we'll always quote that change in writing first.

Are you licensed and insured?+

Yes — fully licensed and insured up to $2 million. We can provide proof of insurance before any work begins.

How long until you can start my project?+

Most projects start within 1–3 weeks of signing. We'll give you an exact start date during your estimate.

What size projects do you take on?+

Most of our backyard transformations fall between $15,000 and $60,000+. Smaller jobs are welcome too — we'll tell you honestly if we're the right fit.

Do you offer design services?+

Yes. Design layouts are included with every quote so you can visualize the finished space before we break ground.
