Entire process was well organized and Ben & his team took the time during design to help us pick features and elements that no only look great, but perform and add to the enjoyment of our pool and outdoor area. During design - we could see realtime changes made to the computer rendering and get a great look at how the finished product would turn out. During construction, our project manager kept us abreast of everything and the crew worked hard, were respectful to our property and family & completed the job within the communicated timeline. We get so many compliments on our pool and definitely recommend Hive to our friends and families.
Description of Work: Complete Pool and deck design with cage. Start to finish.

Thank you to Gabe Harris and the entire team at Hive Outdoor. The decorative fountain in front of our office complex at Magdalene Center is now a landmark along Florida Avenue. I highly recommend Hive Outdoor Living for your water work needs.

We closed on our home the day before thanksgiving 2023 and moved in. Immediately knew we were going to need a pool and the works so the hunt began. After consulting with a number of companies we found Hive Outdoor Living. Todd Walden was our designer and sales specialist and he really looked out for us and listened to our desires. The entire process has been seamless, design beautiful, and product quality is exceptional. The virtual presentation was a great help to visualize what we were going with and how the final project would look. There has been constant communication and updates from Todd and the construction crew. If you can dream it, Todd at Hive Outdoor Living can design it and make it a reality!

Hive Outdoor Living exceeded all of our expectations. From start to finish the customer service and quality of work we're phenomenal! Our foreman Teddy was attentive and informative throuout the whole process, answering all of our questions and concerns and really made us apart of the process. Our "pool school" with Ron was exceptional. Ron deserves 5 stars on his own for how knowledgeable and informative he was. He really took the time to explain everything and ensured we knew how to use and care for our pool. We would highly recommend Hive to anyone looking for an outstanding, fast, attentive, informative, quality company to build the backyard of your dreams!
