Austin and his crew did a phenomenal job on our backyard. From day one he went over our design carefully, gave us a honest estimate, added excellent ideas and proceeded to start on the day he said he would. The crew was polite, knowledgeable, cleaned up their work space everyday and were masters at their
trade. Geo was the project lead, he was so attentive to detail. He laid out the pavers to perfection. Our Pergola swing turned out beautiful. Everything about our yard turned out spectacular. We are definitely going to use Austin and his talented crew for future projects this summer. Thank you Platinum Outdoors for a job well done!

Austin and his team at Platinum Outdoors were nothing short of perfection!
We moved into our new home over a month ago and had paint, flooring, bathroom reno, framing, you name it done to our home. Every single project we started quickly ran into serious issues and we were always provided crews that were messy and not qualified to be doing the work.
However Austin’s team lead by Leo were professional, organized, timely, respectful and most importantly true craftsman’s at their trade. For everything that has gone wrong for us during this move, Platinum Outdoors is the true bright spot and they earned a customer for life.
