Customer Feedback:
Live Oak Decks
“I love them! They’ve done work for my mother, my uncle, and on two of my projects. I’m an architect, and they do things right. Will is a “can-do” kinda guy, and their work is always top of the line. Their workers are very respectful, and the communication between the crew and the office is great.”

Customer Feedback:
Brilliant Buildings
“My chimney sunk and took parts of the floor with it! They avoided having to remove the chimney by bringing out a pressure grouter and leveling the house. They took a lot of time to meet my needs, were very professional, and there was not one nail left behind.h“

Customer Feedback:
Birkmyer Landscapes
“I have been working with Birkmeyer Landscaping for the last 7 or 8 years, and I cannot recommend them highly enough. They are the best landscaping people that I have worked with. They are accommodating, on time, and their work is always the best. Phil Birkmeyer is just one of the best businessmen that I have ever worked with. We have established a warm friendship as a result of the satisfaction that my wife and I have had with his work. I give him a triple A rating and hope that my reference gets him the work that he deserves.”
