My husband and I hired JWB Home to redo our patio. Not only did we get a patio, we got a complete outdoor oasis and living space. Anon's attention to detail and design of not only the patio area but landscaping and lighting far exceeded our vision for what our new patio/backyard would look like. They also completed our project way ahead of schedule. We absolutely love our patio and it has been a complete life changer because we want to just be outside. Anon and his entire crew are extremely professional and just great to work with. Thank you for our new outdoor living space. You can't go wrong if you hire JWB Home.

JAB did it all! We had a very complex project to address our water drainage and soil erosion issues. They repaired the foundation cracks, installed a French drain, and drain pipes for the down spouts, regarded the backyard, built a boulder retaining wall, and installed a magnificent stone patio. Anon quickly answered all our questions and addressed our concerns. Jose and the crew were also very professional. We are looking forward to the final phase when all the landscaping is planted in Spring.

Very professional and finished the project on time. I work from home and the crew was very respectful to keep the noise to a minimum since I am on the phone a lot. Gave me the heads up when there was going to be a lot of noise (no control over that). Will be using them again to do my patio project next summer.

Upon my first meeting with JWB, I knew that they were the right company for the job. Anon and his team has taken a newly purchased home with multiple issues and come up with not only solutions, but a cost effective ones. The fact that it always turns out beautifully is just the icing on the cake. They know what they are talking about and it would be a mistake to go anywhere else.

It was a joy working with Anon and his crew! Drainage was our primary project and to beautify our backyard. Both were done to our satisfaction and with no issues....and were done beautifully! We will be contacting them when it comes time to redo our front yard landscaping. Responsive, responsible, and very creative. Thank you again for making our yard something truly beautiful not to mention a dry garage!

We engaged with JWB this past Spring to do a landscape grade to improve drainage in our back yard and to prepare and lay seed, at a cost of over $8,000. While the drainage goal was mostly achieved, the contour of the yard was irregular. The cement **caps** for our septic system were clearly exposed above the grade. By mid-summer, our new **lawn** which we had kept well-watered, was primarily weeds. JWB took no responsibility, but did offer a solution, at our expense. We have since regraded and reseeded with another contractor at a cost of over $2400. The yard now has a much nicer and regular grade flush with our septic caps, and the new seed is secured by a well laid mesh/straw mat. While weather and other conditions will impact the success of a project like ours, we were very disappointed that JWB did not take a more customer-friendly approach in standing behind their work. As a result, our $8400 budgeted project ended up costing almost $11,000.

we just got the temporary work done by them to quickly fix the water coming in the basement from sump pump, we really liked the solution they were providing but as the estimate for the whole foundation drainage project was not meeting our budget we couldn't go with them

After the recent flood I had to have my yard resloped and seeded. Also had a hugh willow tree removed. Anon and his entire crew answered all questions and concerns and I cannot express to them how much I liked working with them and pleased with their very hard work. The grass of course isn't up yet but neighbors are stopping by and tell me already how nice my yard looks. I will definitely be using their services again.

Out of 5 stars I give JWB Outdoor 10 stars! If you want a job done right, call JWB Outdoor. I had 5 companies come out to give me estimates and JWB Outdoor was by far the most knowledgeable, respectful, caring and delightful company! I was given an estimate that same afternoon and they were able to start that next week! Everyone is very dependable and reliable. Not to mention the fact, before they leave for the day they go above and beyond to clean up their mess. My home is as good as new and even looks better now than it did before!

I was very impressed with my entire experience (start to finish). Anon Burton was the reason why selected this Compnay. Anon is a true professional, but more importantly, he is passionate about landscaping and very respectful of our home.

I had JWB regrade my backyard. When it rained, it was a lake. JWB regraded and seeded/sodded my entire backyard and put in a large drain to help with water runoff. Anon worked with me and the Village to make sure it was done to my satisfaction and in line with Village rules. Anon is exceptionally knowledgeable and explains everything to make sure his work is understood. His crew is respectful and did a great job! Anon's customer service is the best - he was very responsive to any concern I had! I definitely will be hiring this company again!

We used JWB to do some minor grading to help with water drainage, install a large stone path, and install 3 trees and 5 perennial grasses. We began working with Anon (owner) to design the solution. He is extremely knowledable and easy to work with. The job was guided by two very good foremen - Buck & Gabriel. They also were very easy to work with and, along with the rest of the crew, were extremely skilled. We are absolutley thrilled with their work and the outcome. I would not hestitate to recommend them.

Buck was very professional and helpful. He went above and beyond what I asked for making my yard beautiful. He also informed me his plans so I knew at all times what he'd be doing. He even contacted me to let me know when he'd be arriving and provide a basic schedule.
