I always wanted a back yard putting green but was concerned that the upkeep of real grass would be…read moretoo much of a burden and most synthetic grasses would feel (well you guessed it) fake. I had imagined that the cost of putting in the really good stuff would be prohibitive so getting a putting green was relegated to my bucket list along with playing golf with Tiger Woods, climbing Mt. Everest, having a cup of coffee with George Bush and a few other such items The idiom "it's an ill wind that blows no good" took on a literal meaning for us recently as we faced the devastation wrought by hurricane Florence. Like many in coastal North Carolina, damages to our home were covered by insurance but not our landscape. That's where we took the biggest hit. The quotes we got for replacing what could be replaced were costly and would require a lot of hard work on our part. Even so it in no way restore the landscape to what it was. Only years of tender loving care as rendered by my wife to the flower gardens, shrubs, trellises, dwarf trees, etc. could do that. That's where the "bucket list" and the "ill wind" joined forces. I was reviewing quotes when the thought of the back yard putting green popped into my head. I did a little research on the improvement in synthetic grass. I went on line to get a better idea on pricing. I had heard Hank Haney talk about "Celebrity Greens" Their web site stated that they had installed greens for many in the golf profession. I thought, if they were satisfying some of the most demanding in the golf industry, the product must be good. But, could I afford it? I sent them my contact info. to find out. To my surprise I got a call from Weston Weber, the company founder. Among many interesting things about the golf industry, we discussed the practicality and affordability of my "bucket list" green. He told me that he was adding an installation company to his team and that the completion of their training could work very well with my schedule and he would have them get in touch with me. (Bucket List! Price!) Sure enough, I got a follow up call from Scott Fairman, the owner of Scott's Turf in Charlotte. We agreed on the scope of the project and price. A month later we now are looking at the finished product. It is beautiful. Scott and his team (And I do mean team) are professionals. Celebrity Greens supported Scott's team with Mark Phillips, one of the best installers in the country. The landscaping is beautiful and the jewel in the middle of it all is this undulating, 11.5 rolling, fringed green with supporting chipping areas. The cost of all of it was about the same as what restoring the landscape to what it was before the storm. The smartest move I made was allowing Scott the freedom to create the landscape as he visualized it, rather than me dreaming up something. He created a gem. Oh, and about the tender loving care part, maintenance is minimal and that is a good thing, because now my wife is too busy for that. She is stroking 5', left to right, down hillers, the only thing keeping her from getting back into single digits now that she has so much free time. I even give it a try myself regretting why I waited so long. Thank you, Celebrity Greens, for a great product and Scott's Turf for a great installation. 5 Stars and then some. Mike and Peg Cahill

We were satisfied with the results but saw a neighbor had hired the team of Moses and Ewing to do their mulch. I noticed it looked like they had a lot of extra bark mulch, which we could use in the backyard, and we asked if he was interested in placing it in the back of our property. He called his boss, William, and we all agreed on a fair price. they are hard workers and cleaned up nicely. In the years to come they may be our new "GO TO" Landscapers if the price is right! Thanks again guys!

Derun Construction Inc. is run by brothers Paul & Ivan Derun. I've had the opportunity to utilize…read moreDerun to fully remodel a ~40 year old Screen Porch and highly recommend their services. Rather than stating that they're great to work with (which they truly are) let me elaborate on my actual experience. Given I was seeking to remodel an existing porch structure in a pretty significant way, I initially enlisted the services of a structural engineering firm to create drawings for me. Thereafter, I began interviewing prospective contractors to perform the work laid out in the drawings and was quite surprised at the relative indifference and/or opposition shown by several contractors toward the existence of the plans - most claimed there wasn't a need for them or attempted to tell me how engineers just overcomplicate things. Paul, on the other hand, was actually delighted to know that I had these engineering plans in hand and went over them with me at our very first meeting. He was intelligent enough to realize that if he followed the engineering drawings, as laid out; he would have no issues in getting the project through the county code enforcement process which would be a win for both him, as a contractor, and me, as the client. Paul takes a lot of pride in his work and he works hard to please his customers. By nature, I am a very particular individual; and being a Realtor by profession, makes me even more so. Paul took all of my feedback in stride and did everything he could to meet my exacting standards. There were days when I literally hovered over him and his team; more so to learn from them (given my profession) rather than to supervise - but I'm quite sure this couldn't have been a lot of fun for him and the crew. In the few instances where my expectation on certain things happened to exceed the underlying project scope; Paul was very diplomatic in pointing this out to me and we quickly found common ground such that I wasn't compromising his profit margins and was able to fulfill my desires. I also wanted a proper estimate on the front end; as well as, a full paper trail of the project - including change orders - which Paul readily supplied. Paul's pricing was fair and the project was completed within the cost margins of error and project timeline I had planned for. I had a vision for what the porch would look like when completed and Paul provided a lot of good feedback in making my vision a reality. We talked through a lot of different things like material choices, design, electrical outlet locations etc. I'll conclude by saying Paul is just a genuinely good person....period; and anyone who opts to work with him is in good hands. Thank you Paul, Ivan and the rest of the team!
