Contacted Tanner for a quote (July 2025) on an approximate length of fence. He was able to give me…read morea rough estimate immediately and was the only fence company that responded in a timely manner and was able to get to me rather quickly after delivery of the material. Reasonably priced, and with one other person, got the job done in a few days. Just waiting for wheels to make life easier! lol ***Update: BUYER BEWARE:*** March 2026 I am having huge issues with the panels and gates, that Tanner installed. The panels aren't staying together, there are several gaps, the gates sag so bad they're pulling panels out of the posts and can't be opened easily without lifting the entire gate. Accordong to my neighbor this fence wasn't installed correctly at all. Contacted this dude to come out and fix it, and got the run around, once again. Always has excuses and is either the most unhealthy dude on the planet, as hes always sick, and has the worst memory or he's just completely unprofessional, which is where I am tending to lean. Either way, he's blown me off several times and I can no longer, with good conscience, recommend him or his work. Oh yeah, and the wheels... he could have told me 6 months ago he wasn't going to do it, I could have fixed the issue myself. He all of a sudden didn't have the "right wheels for my fence" and I needed to purchase them for an additional couple hundred dollars, but couldn't mention this before hand when I initially contacted him about the damn wheels.... its NOT about the wheels, its about how he handled this whole situation.

We decided to call Outdoor Designers because we saw pictures of previous jobs and really liked what they had to offer. The owner of the company, John came out to provide the quote, which was far better than the competitors and decided to have the work start this winter. The work started on time and finished on schedule. The craftsmanship and quality of work were outstanding and every detail was mastered by the quality workers that are employed at Outdoor Designers. We could not be happier with the quality of work and use the screened in porch every chance we get. If you are looking for super high-quality work Outdoor Designers is the company to call.

On August 9th I signed the contract and gave William our deposit. He failed to show more than once…read moreand failed to fulfill any obligation associated with the job. He originally slated the Job for October 1st, and failed to show then re-slated for October 7th. He is non-responsive and does not return calls or texts. I am moving forward with both a criminal and civil lawsuit against him. If others are reading this and have been scammed, contact the Virginia Beach Police, Economic crimes unit. William is violating state law that I shared below. § 18.2-200.1. Failure to perform promise for construction, etc., in return for advances. If any person obtain from another an advance of money, merchandise or other thing, of value, with fraudulent intent, upon a promise to perform construction, removal, repair or improvement of any building or structure permanently annexed to real property, or any other improvements to such real property, including horticulture, nursery or forest products, and fail or refuse to perform such promise, and also fail to substantially make good such advance, he shall be deemed guilty of the larceny of such money, merchandise or other thing if he fails to return such advance within fifteen days of a request to do so sent by certified mail, return receipt requested, to his last known address or to the address listed in the contract. The more complaints they get, the faster they will process his case. Also be sure to make a complaint on his DPOR license (google DPOR complaint to get the form) I am also filing a lawsuit against him in small claims. If anyone else scammed by him would like to be further involved, I will happily walk you through the steps.

BEWARE!!!! BEWARE!!!! BEWARE!!! I chose this company to…read moreresurface our deck. Gave William our deposit on 8/26 in good faith that he would provide services as discussed in proposal. He scheduled us on September 9th and did not come thru. His excuse was that the job they were working on took more time and they would get to me in a few days. I told him I understood and to please keep me informed. After a few days of not hearing from him, I reached out to see if he can give me a date and he could not provide that. Now he says that he's 2 months booked and trying to fit me in. I told him that I felt like he was giving me the run-a-round because if I was aware that he was 2 months booked I would not have given him a deposit. I made it very clear to Willam that my deck had to be repaired within 30 days and he led me to believe that he could get me in quickly. I requested full refund of my deposit back from him and no response. I reached out several times per phone, text, email, company website, mail and still no response. Moving forward with legal action. PLEASE BEWARE SO THIS DOESN'T HAPPEN TO YOU!!!

The patio pattern was installed wrong despite us specifically requesting a design with a sample…read morepicture and, verbatim, "This is how it should look when you look out the back door." They refused to redo it despite that polymeric sand had not been applied. The side yard was tore up because they brought trucks onto the muddy yard despite being told in the consultation that they would be hauling everything by wheelbarrow and trucks would not enter the yard. The yard now has to be reseeded. The screen door was torn on the second day. A fence post was tore off on the second day. They littered cigarette butts over the length of the property. They buried my sprinkler fitting and had to dig up a bigger section around the patio to put new tubing in. This also has to be reseeded. Overall a bad experience and would not recommend. EDIT: Just noticed that the middle of the patio is sunken and pools water. Gonna be great to watch it rain and run toward the house. Thanks!

Bluf: Reliable, high-quality company with affordable prices…read more We've used this company for many years (10 or so). Owner Aaron exhibits old-school integrity and is wicked smart with respect to trees, grass, flowers, etc. Pretty certain he knows the Latin names for all the plants too. His services are priced affordably (lower than the big national companies) and the results are noteworthy. We've had him install French drains, sump pumps, remove bushes, grate & level our yard after a giant tree removal, install a 16 x 70 paver patio and a separate patio off our master, and of course maintain our grass. I recommend him for all your landscaping needs.

I'm updating my earlier review because, over the past 2 years things have taken a turn…read more They have been my yard company for a probably about 4-6 years at this point. At first, everything was great, but recently there have been a lot of problems and it mostly boils down to the people who come to mow the yard and not the people in the office who are great (Mel, Cindy, Aaron). I have to be totally honest, it's not all bad, they are responsive to concerns and they always call you back. Aaron and his dad, Mel, will personally call you and/or come over whenever there is an issue and Cindy is very helpful and runs a tight ship on the phone from their office. In addition to weekly mowing services, they do landscaping and have mulched for me and installed metal edging and did a good job. They also have seeded my yard for me at the end of season and that turned out pretty well. I had a few issues with some landscaping and they were quick to come over and make it right. I also had an issue where they kept hitting my porch step repeatedly and it ate it away the wood but they did pay to repair it when I had it fixed. I basically live in Back Bay and my yard retains a lot of water so I've had a bunch of issues with ruts in the yard and them driving through the mulch beds instead of weed eating or taking a little extra time not to tear up my yard when there is bad weather. No, you can't control the weather, but you can do some stuff to not be so hard on someone's yard (like weed eat instead of drive the zero turn over problem areas, etc.) and I haven't seen any of that recently. It's constant pain and irritation on my end and I'm sure they're tired of me calling to complain as much as I'm tired of being irritated by the crappy care taken in my yard. I'm pretty unhappy with the quality lately of the weekly service I'm paying for and the guys who come cutting corners with the weekly maintenance. I've included photos. The guys who come sometimes drive the entire wheel through the length of my mulch bed, over the sprinkler heads, and undoing the mulching and edging I pay for annually. They also repeatedly turn the zero turn in the exact same spot and drive ruts in mud through the yard every week and kill the grass I pay $300-400 to have seeded and $500-700 to have treated. It's a lot of money to have careless services, so I've decided to go with someone else who perhaps has less yards to mow, but won't cut corners to be quick. I'm tired of worrying about it. It's clearly just not a good fit with my yard.
