Texas Traditions Outdoors

We had a new wooden fence installed by Trey Trueblood and his crew and it's great. The price and design was good, materials top notch, and follow up tweaks had no drama. I would not hesitate to use them again.

Raef and team built a superior pergola for our backyard. The pergola definitely exceeded our expectations, especially for the price we paid. It's rock solid, and great craftsmanship. The carpenters were professional and cleaned up the area after the project was done.

they came at 8.30 o'clock in the morning and Raef, the supervisor, explained to the two workers what needed to be done. They tore out the old fence and set the steel posts in cement. They came back the next day to install the rest of the fence. On the third day they finished installing the gate, cleaned up and left. The fence looks beautiful and the two workers did a great job!

Excellent staff. On time, on top of the job, work was done in a timely manner.

Keith York, the Project Manager, spent a great deal of time with me working out the details of the design, especially as it pertained to the abutment to the house. They then came to set the main posts, three of which were anchored to my concrete decking, and one had to be set in the yard itself. After the the concrete had set on the one placed in the yard, the crew arrived early in the morning to complete the project. The crew chief sang exuberantly while he worked, and some of the others would join in, which made it hard to sleep, but at the same time it was heartening to see how much they enjoyed what they did. I watched as the crew chief corrected some of the worker's on their handiwork, always making sure the end result was up to his high standards. Keith would come by and spend hours to make sure things were being followed according to our collaborative design plan. I had instructed them that I did not want to see one drop of wood stain hit my concrete decking, and nary a drop did. They did run out of wood, I think because the crew chief made his team set the roof slats closer than spec'd to make it look more appealing, so they had to come back the next day with more wood to complete the job. The end result was spectacular! Two years prior I had used Texas Traditions to build a 6' cedar fence around sections of my lot. They suggested I add corbels to add an extra touch of class and uniqueness to their already beautiful design. The result was absolutely amazing, and still stands as the nicest cedar fence in our neighborhood. I highly recommend Texas Traditions Outdoors!

Rafe showed up on time and it was on a Saturday which they normally don't do. However, he wasn't really following at first what I was trying to convey to him about what we wanted done. I helped with almost all the measurements as well as the figures. He was really trying to up sell me h****** some of the other products that Texas Traditions offers, which we had no interest in what so ever and he kept going on and on about them. We finally hammered everything out and he worked up the quote. All I can say is HOLY COW, hello EXPENSIVE and not just by a little bit, WOW! The most disturbing thing about the whole experience with Texas Traditions and Rafe was what happened today, 10-9-14, when he "followed up" with me as to if we were ready to move forward with the project. After explaining what my wife and I had decided to do, his question was, "Oh so you are meaning to tell me that you and your wife can't even afford $2,000 for concrete?" I then informed him that it is not about if we can afford $2,000 for concrete or anything else for that matter, that we are going to get quotes and that if we can save money on the concrete then we are going to save the money. All he said was, "Well ok, I did't know you could get it for that cheap other places and good luck with that." and then hung up. I do not know what Rafe's role with Texas Traditions is, but I do know that he embodies the word arrogant. I would never use this company based on this experience and what they charge. Also, do NOT expect them to answer the phone when you call, you are just going to be expected to leave a message. I do not know how the heck they have an A for anything on Angie's List!

I contacted them to do work because they did fence work for some friends and I loved how it looked. Keith was my contact for this job and he has provided excellent service. The house trim and gutters have been done and look great. Unfortunately, I'm having trouble with the city of Dallas in order to get approval for the rest. However, Keith has spent so much time trying to push the approval through quickly. I will review the other work if I can ever get it approved! I highly recommend this company.
