Typical Hardscape Project Process/Timeline

Initial Call

One of our Designers will schedule a Free Consultation after receiving your call or email inquiry.  These appointments are usually scheduled 1 to 2 weeks out, depending on the time of year.  Appointments are scheduled during normal business hours.

Initial Consultation

During the Free Consultation, your designer will determine if a Design Fee is required for your project and will tell you the amount.  Consultation meetings are usually about 30 minutes long, but vary depending on the project.

Designer Prepares

Your designer will complete drawings and a proposal for your project.  This process generally takes 1 to 2 weeks, but may vary depending on the time of year.

Revisions

If necessary, your designer will prepare revisions to your drawings and proposal based on feedback that you provide to the initial concepts.  This review can take place in person, or by way of email exchange, depending on your preference.  This process may take up to a week.  The Design Fee would be paid at this time.

Contract

Once the contract for installation is signed, any Design Fees will be applied towards your down payment.  The down payment invoice will be prepared 1 to 2 weeks before the beginning of the project.  The schedule backlog varies depending on the time of year, other projects, and weather.  You will have the option to see your projected timeline updated in “real time” should you wish to create an account (no cost) with our schedule management software.

Project Commences

Project length varies.  Approximately 1 day per 100 square feet of paver patio installation, 1-2 days for steps (depending on how many), 2-3+ days for seat walls (depending on length/how many), 1+ days for landscape (depending on scope).

Pete and team were phenomenal. We had several contractors come out and provide estimates. We were looking to re-landscape all the way around the house. They were by far the most responsive and helpful. The plan that was put together was very detailed so it was easy to get a sense for how it was going to look. It turned out beautiful! Pete has followed up several times after the work was complete to see how things were going. We had this done late in the summer so I can’t wait until spring to see everything come to life! I would highly recommend Blue Oak!

Pete and his crew – Brian, Alex, and Nicoli – were top notch, among the most professional and considerate specialty contractors I’ve had the pleasure to deal with. Pete communicated with us regularly throughout the course of the work. The project was completed timely and within budget – despite Mother Nature (rain) and some “curveballs” we threw Pete along the way. We are completely satisfied with the results. There is nothing about the project we would have done differently. We are so pleased we will definitely choose Blue Oak for our next patio & landscape project.

We were very pleased with our new front patio and entrance to our home. Pete asked us want we wanted and then designed exactly the plan that we were looking for. The crew showed up when the work was scheduled and finished on time. The landscaping was beautiful and Pete followed up several times to make sure everything was growing. I would highly recommend Blue Oak.!!

Pete and the team at Blue Oak have been a pleasure to work with. Pete is very responsive and takes the time to be sure your concerns are met. The love and knowledge he has shines through in his creative designs and plant selections. Blue Oak is a dependable and professional team.

Blue Oak was a great group to work with and they went to great lengths making sure my project was done right. Being in the real estate industry communication is huge for me and Pete and his team kept me informed on the progress. Looking forward to the next project with Pete.

Kerri B.

Very professional and responsive! The hardest problem whenever trying to hire a contractor is finding someone who will actually call you back. Pete responded right away and scheduled an appointment around my schedule. On the day of my appointment, it was raining (and had been for a couple days). I thought for sure we would need to reschedule, but Pete showed up still on time! My yard was a muddy mess. He still took the time to go over his ideas with me. A few days later, I received the design he thought would work best for my hard-to-landscape yard (lots of shade). It was BEAUTIFUL! I highly recommend using Blue Oak Patio and Landscape!

Nick C.

Pete, Nick and the crew did an extraordinary job for us last fall updating a retaining wall for a small stream in the back of our home. The work was completed on time, on budget and with superb craftsmanship!
The professionalism of the team at Blue Oak is what sets them apart from all the others! I plan to use them for all my landscaping and hardscape needs in the future!

Bob F.

We are very pleased with the service Pete and his Blue Oak team delivered. Pete has done two projects for us. Each time he listened to our requests and provided a beautiful, functional and cost-effective solution. His low-key approach is a pleasure to do business with. After obtaining competitive bids it was clear that Blue Oak operated differently from every other landscape company we contacted. His crew arrived on time, completed the work on time, cleaned up at the end of each shift and communicated progress along the way. We couldn’t be happier with the results and will be using Blue Oak for future landscape projects.
