Met with Ken on May 3rd , 2013 at 5pm . Gave me the male attitude " this is what I'm going to do or not do " as the case may be. Had little interest in what I wanted to do. At one point told me he would not warranty the work as I wished it to be done. I ended our meeting quickly after that, yet I received his estimate via email , complete with PDF drawing on May23rd, 2013 and several follow up phone calls which I did not return. Judging from the response below Outback's records keeping needs some improvement as well.

Response from OUTBACK BUILDERS
We don't know what this person is talking about. But, according to my records I provider her with a quote for a new railing for their deck in June of 2001 and for reasons unknown to me, she decided not to go with our company and until now I have not heard anything from her. Since it took her 12 years to add a review about us and that we never did any work for her, I have to assume that she has us mixed up with another company. I do know that I am never rude to my customers and I always listen to what they want.

Our overall experience was fantastic. Ken and his crew were very professional, timely, courteous and neat. Unfortunately, it took them a little longer because of the rainy weather we had for a few days in a row. We had a couple of estimates and Outback Builders was the most competitive. We liked Ken as he is a really down to earth guy, was easy to get a hold of, answered questions promptly, etc. We love our new deck and would recommend Outback Builders to anyone. The nicest part is that he does it all so you don't to need hire different companies. Thanks Ken. Can't wait until spring!!
Description of Work: We had our old deck demolished and removed. Ken did a wonderful design for our new deck and patio. We have a walkout basement; and therefore, we need a deck with stairs down to the patio. We had the patio installed with pavers. The design of the deck was awesome. We had a seamless diagonal deck put in with and octagon seating area attached. The pavers were put under the entire area of the deck.

I was very happy with the final product. They did a very good job of consulting and helping me with the design. I was very happy with the quality of the finished deck. My only complaint was that the yard was left a little messy as they did not clean up but they came back and did it.
Description of Work: I used the services of Outback Builders in July or August 2011. They built a deck.

Punctual and professional. He provided an estimate for a 13 x 25 deck including the demolition and removal of the old deck for $7200 for cedar and $6750 for pressure treated. We decided to go with a concrete porch instead.
Description of Work: Needed to rip out our old deck and install a new cedar deck in its place.
