Though we didn't need anything fancy for our cabin in Munds Park, Sean made us feel like we were his best customers! His ideas were great and scaled to our price point. He kept us informed about progress and reviewed our project at various intervals to assure all was being done to our satisfaction and his high standards. His crew was professional and precise and we were beyond satisfied with the end product. We look forward to making many awesome memories with friends and family, enjoying our new bbq patio in the mountains! Impressive job by Sean and entire crew! Would recommend without hesitation!

We were so impressed with Sean's creativity and vision and professionalism. He listened carefully to our preferences and created a beautiful design that used our property to its maximum potential. He was thorough and interactive and kind and truly a joy to work with. His presentation and concept artwork were beautiful! Sean is a deeply skilled artist with the ability to transform any property into a unique work of art. He integrated his knowledge of the landscape and natural surroundings with his remarkable inventiveness and our personalities.

If you are looking for a full-service, dependable company to design and install an "award winning" outdoor living space, look no further than Mountainscapers. After receiving several bids, I chose them because of their incredibly creative proposal to turn my dirt pile of a backyard into an "island oasis" - complete with an incredible shade structure (made with hand-scraped Ponderosa pine), a "deal of the century" waterfall feature, gently sloping grass area flanked by an incredible garden and an expanded patio.
The proposal was fantastic -but could they actually deliver on their promises? Amazingly, they did! In fact, they "exceeded expectations" and stayed within budget. The real bonus for me was that the owner, Sean, contacted me several times afterwards to make sure I was happy. I was happy - and I'm guessing you will be too. Sean, Tony (the project manager) and their crew of five guys are head and shoulders above any other contractors I have worked for. Give Mountainscapers a chance - they are really a great bunch of people.
