TEJAS OUTDOOR LIVING

Our experience - Started out o.k. The project was progressing well, the landscape lighting and the hardscape came out well. We were then at the final stage of getting the landscape (6 larger trees for the backyard, grasses, etc.) installed. By that point the project was 80% done and we had paid in full for the hardscape. We were expecting a walk-though at the end to understand the electrical, instructions and maintenance on the landscape lighting. Tejas finished the hardscape and still had approx $1K of our deposit money (for the trees, etc.), but then.... they fell off the planet. I called, left messages, emailed... his voicemail box at one point was full and couldn't accept messages. After almost 4 weeks I just stopped calling. He never once called me back. I assumed he went out of business. I had to call another electrician and have them come out to fix one issue and then explain the landscape lighting. I would definitely not recommend Tejas.

Clay is extremely professional and knowledgeable. I have had estimates with dozens of contractors and three architects. Hands-down, Clay appears to be the more informed about deck building than anyone else who has given me an estimate. I hope to be able to hire Clay to do my deck, when I am ready. I am confident he is the best. He appears to do high-end work, and I am not sure I would be able to afford the price. Based on his portfolio I will hire him if I can afford his company's price.

Contacted them through the web site and never heard back.

These folks did exactly what they said they would. The two partners, Clay Reed and Garret Davis, were available throughout the project. They made sure that they had a competitive bid, and then followed through on design and construction. The decking product I chose, Amerideck, was new to them, but they said no problem and installed it to my satisfaction. I was very pleased with them, and I would use them again.
