Scott and his team did a beautiful job for us on our back patio after we had a solarium installed. The design was tastefully done and matched perfectly to a previously laid walkway and small sitting area. In addition he did a lift and relay which made the existing interlock look brand new again! All work was done thoroughly and quickly. Each team member polite and pleasant. We were extremely pleased and had Scott come back to build a retaining wall that was in need of replacement. Again, Scott and his team went about the job quickly paying close attention to each detail.
We will definitely be engaging Scott and his team again for additional work in the future, and have no hesitation in recommending him at all.
We hired University Werks initially to update the front of our house. Scott (owner) showed us examples of his past work and made several suggestions based on our layout. He did not push us to decide but provided scale drawings of two options and we chose one. He then made suggestions as to texture and color of the building materials which were also of high grade. He patiently explained what he planned to do and what would happen under the finished product to ensure it would last and answered any questions we had. He committed to a date, followed up with us and staged materials the day before. His crew arrived on time and continued to work through several days until the job was completed (on time). His men were very courteous and, when we offered refreshments, we were told, by them, that Scott provides that and that he looks after them very well. I inspected the finished work and was impressed with the attention to detail (an example is the fine cut in the stone to fit around a drain pipe and the same to follow the line of the large garden stone work.
The fact that we had no reservations in having Scott back to replace our outdated back patio in the second project is a testimony to how pleased we were with the first job and, once again, an excellent job started and finished on time.
Scott offers a good guarantee and I'm sure it would be honored but, having seen the efforts he takes to ensure a good job first time, I don't expect to be taking advantage of that guarantee.
University Werks provided a timely and competitive quote for the project we wanted done. Upon signing the contract communication was execellent. The crew arrived exactly when we were told they would and the job was completed within the time frame provided. The work was first class and the design receives many compliments from our neighbours. Chalk up a very satisfied customer! We would highly recommend University Werks Landscape Construction.
We were fortunate enough to find Scott (Online) while obtaining landscaping estimates. His web site indicated to both the quality of his design/work and his level of professionalism. We chose Scott because he seemed genuinely interested in our project (#122). Scott was quick to communicate the initial design / estimate while remaining receptive to our ideas. The final design exceeded our expectations and was transferred from paper to ground precisely. The work looks as good today as it did 5 years ago when it was completed.
We'd been contemplating a deck expansion for a couple years. Once I'd resolved that my ambitions exceeded my ability (DIY) we didn't hesitate to call Scott and his team . Again Scott displayed his willingness to take on the project. (#188) The goal was to seamlessly integrate the new upper deck with our existing lower deck . Scott's experience and proven design ability did just that. The team was always willing to answer questions and resolved any concerns. In the end the deck was exactly what we'd wanted and has been enjoyed many times since.
There is no greater testament than to say that Scott has earned our trust as a contractor and we'll be sure to
call him again for our next project.
An absolutely awesome job!
We had contracted University Werks at our previous house for interlock patio work, so had contacted them again when our new house required repair work on the existing patio. Scott was a true professional in our planning process with his ideas and design. Everything was done as planned and we couldn't be happier.
We have already received a number of compliments from neighbours and friends and look forward to next summer in the backyard!
