Everyone working on the project was professional, competent and very mindful and respectful of our property as well as our surrounding neighbors' property. We have been so pleased with our finished patio that we continue to add to it and continue to be very pleased with all of the work performed by the wonderful folks at Cutting Edge."

When we bought this house we were thrilled with the yard, but then discovered that a large area never dried out enough to use. Now with the new patio in the area of the soggy ground, it is so much nicer and we have gained so much more usable backyard space. Your team worked as if it were their own patios in their own yards. You really understood what we wanted too, and we especially liked how you reused much of the existing materials which other wise would have been discarded. The curb steps look great and the pergola is beautiful!! It fits perfectly in our bckyard in scal and style, and doesn't block any of our view of the yard and the woods."

Not only does the entire crew work hard, but we are always impressed with the total communication with everyone. No detail is left undone and nothing is ever forgotten. No one drops the ball in your organization. Once of our neighbors came to see the projet and said You just added significant value to your property. We think so too and are grateful to all of you."
