For those looking for the highest level feedback, my wife and I couldn't be more pleased with our outdoor living space and having met Dave Hetrick and his Exterior Concepts team. Exterior Concepts was able to deliver the turn-key solution we were looking for with great quality, people, and financial value. For starters, our backyard wasn’t in bad shape to begin with. We purchased a renovated South Tampa pool home a year ago and some landscaping was done prior to help with the sale. Our initial scope was simply to extend the pavers on our patio and it wasn’t until we met Dave, and he got to know us a little bit, that he showed us what we could do to truly make an outdoor living space. From my perspective, this is what is invaluable to Exterior Concepts, its not just about a renovation or addition, rather creating a unique and comfortable outdoor living space that can be used year round in Florida. There are a lot of landscape and hardscape firms throughout the bay area, but Dave's eye for design and incorporating personal touches into our project is what really set him apart. Ultimately we extended our patio, put pavers over old concrete around our pool, added coping to pool and spa, built a bench/flag stone bar around a large oak (very creative design Dave brought to us), built an outdoor pavilion, and added landscaping and low voltage lightening that accents the entire project. We couldn’t be happier with our outdoor living space, its our new favorite ""room"" in our home.\r

In addition to exceeding our expectations with the finished product, we really enjoyed the process. It started with an initial assessment of our backyard. As opposed to asking us for our ""budget"" Dave was transparent about the pricing for each segment of the project (pavers, carpentry, landscaping, lighting) from the onset, allowing us to estimate how much we wanted to do and to compare prices from other firms. From there, we described what we were looking for and Dave prepared a drawing that was broken out into multiple phases, allowing us to plan how we wanted to tackle the project, and making us comfortable knowing we wouldn’t have to bite it all off at one time. Considering the competitive price points and quality of the work Dave and his team provide, we were able to get exactly what we were dreaming for with what Dave designed. Finally, I couldn’t speak more highly of the teams that work directly for Exterior Concepts. Working from home and having a wife that works part-time, everyone was extremely courteous and professional. The work was completed on-time and the crews did an excellent job of making sure the worksite (our home!) was tidy each night before cutting out. All-in-all, we are impressed and pleased with the design, craftsmanship, and Exterior Concepts team and would recommend Dave and team to friends and family. \r
