We were going to repair our old deck, but when code compliance showed up, we had to apply for a building permit. When we went looking for a contractor to build the new deck, we found Austin Outdoor Builders through their listing on Yelp and their website. Kit called me within a couple of days of my email, and really impressed me with his knowledge and experience with decks. I was concerned about City of Austin inspections, and he was very reassuring, pointing out that he talks to the inspectors by phone regularly. He booked a time to go over the engineering plan and the site, and again, I was very impressed when we met. He spoke of extensive experience in building decks, and asked questions about the site and the plan that reflected this. The quote was not cheap, but what is these days? My main concern was that they do the job properly and work with COA inspectors. Work started within a couple of weeks, and I was quite pleased with how the workers did their job. The only delay was to find an engineer to certify the footings before pouring the concrete. I had originally expressed concern about the durability of the support timbers, and Kit offered to coat them before laying the decking. Imagine my surprise when I found them painting the framing with high end professional oil based enamel! The only other delay was the week of the ice storm when Austin was closed for the duration. I was lucky to have family to remove the trees that fell on the lumber in the yard, because the next Monday they were back at work. Both the framing and final inspections went very smoothly and I am delighted with my new deck. I recommend Austin Outdoor Builders to anyone needing a deck. read more

Austin Outdoor Builders - Uncovered residential deck, 10x18 ft, with metal railing and drinks rail. The decking is composite to last a long time with no refinishing - Fences & Gates Near Me

We sought out AOB to replace a chainlink fence around our yard with an updated wood fence about 18 months ago. All around, our experience was wonderful, and they do high quality work. I'll talk more about our full experience below, but a couple of months ago we had a terrible storm in our neighborhood and a very large tree (at least 25 feet tall) fell directly on our fence. Despite a direct hit, the fence stood firm with only a small dent in the cap board. Talk about quality work! More broadly, our experience was great. We worked with a super helpful person laying out the task who made some fantastic design suggestions (totally not on our radar) that we're really happy with. The work was done efficiently to mimimize the amount of time we had to keep our dog out of the yard. And when seasonal shifting made it impossible to open our gate, they came and fixed it months after the work was done. Great experience all around and would recommend to anyone. read more

We had a fence to refinish, a gate that would always break, and another that was misaligned due to a bad post. Dylan and his crew worked tirelessly to re-post and fix those gates. They had to try several latches and several solutions to fight the expansion from the rain and now the gates are perfect. We also had them build a deck from Trex composite. This was a tricky build because we needed it flush with a concrete slab that was barely an inch and a half from the ground but that didn't stop these guys. Once they commit to doing something, even something tricky, they get it done. We had them put posts for a pair of sail shades on that deck, and the shades arrived later, they had no problem coming back to install the hardware for the shades for us. All of that while juggling the random weather we had in September/October, Dylan and David were truly committed to our project. If something didn't look quite right (which was rare), they fixed it. Couldn't have received a higher level of service and quality. read more

Austin Outdoor Builders - Trex Composite deck with shade sail posts. - Fences & Gates Near Me

I went with Austin outdoor builders for my deck project and I'm really glad I did. Dylan came out to quote and he actually listened to what I wanted, unlike many other companies, and he worked with me -providing his input and knowledge- to come up with a deck I was really looking forward to. Jacob and crew arrived and worked hard to get this built, taking time to involve and inform me of any changes or decisions that had to be made. The end result was the deck that I had wanted, with the peace of mind that it was built professionally and with no nasty surprises. The deck looks great, feels great. The next project I have, I'll be using them again. read more

I couldn't be more happy with our new fence and gates. Dylan listened to my ideas and reviewed my Pinterest board ideas (without judgement...lol) and worked to make it a reality. Our project manager, Chris, checked in at regular times to make sure the process ran smoothly and gave updates on the progress. Noe and his on-site team were easy to communicate with and happy to make any changes here and there. I will have them back for any of our future outdoor design and building needs. read more

After an initial frustrating experience, Dylan and his team stepped up to make things right. Apparently, when our fence/deck was being built out originally, our foreman on the job got sick leaving us with two new workers to finish the job. These new guys didn't definitely didn't live up to the standards set by Dylan and his team (they no longer work there it seems). Anyway, once I alerted Dylan and his team about the issues, they were quick to get on the phone and make sure a team was sent to my home as soon as possible to repair and replace the issues at no cost to me. They ended up fixing a gate, correctly applying trim, adjusting some misplaced boards, and reapplying the stain correctly. Seeing his team do it the second time gave me complete confidence that their build quality is exceptional. I am very pleased with the quality of their work and would recommend them to others. It wasn't five stars due to the issues I had prior to getting everything fixed up but, overall, I am very happy with my new deck and would gladly vouch for Dylan and his team any day. read more

Kit and his team completed two fences around a large retaining pond for our HOA. Austin Outdoor Builders competed against three other firms, won the bid and completed the project quickly, efficiently and as advertised. Austin Outdoor Builders provided great value, great workmanship and accomplished the work on time. I would highly recommend this business. read more

Dylan and his team did an incredible job at my home in South Austin. They fenced in nearly an acre on tough rocky soil. They were fun and professional to have around and made the best looking and functional fence in our neighborhood. They left the yard spotless and helped me identify additional ways I can improve my yard. I will use them exclusively on all my upcoming outdoor projects, as well. We could not be happier with the result!!! read more

Austin Outdoor Builders - Fences & Gates Near Me

I never had any experience with building fences, so I was really glad to find this company. Dylan is very easy to deal with. He's patient, understanding and knowledgeable. He has quick response time and he was very helpful in helping me plan exactly how I wanted the fence. Fernando and crew did a fantastic job putting up a chain link fence around my property in far South Austin. They worked tirelessly each day until the job was finished. I am extremely satisfied with every aspect of my experience with Austin Outdoor Builders on this project: *****Everybody I dealt with was very professional. *****The cost of the fence and labor was very fair. *****The job was completed in a timely manner. *****The finished product is of high quality. *****There is nothing to complain about. Bottom line, AOB delivers Total Customer Satisfaction. I'm very proud of my fence. It looks real good. 5 stars all the way. read more

Just wanted to say this was my first time doing a project for a fence of this size but with Dylan's help he made this project easy. We had to replace a fence we had here at my job that enclosed a playground around 456 feet of fence needed replacing. The fence was here before I started and was beginning to roll up at the bottom and become unsafe for the kiddos. I contacted Dylan he replied immediately and scheduled a time to come out to take a look at the fence within 2 days of contacting him. After walking the grounds with him he told me the job could be done and in a shorter time frame and less expensive than some of the other vendors I had been looking at for this fence project. He started work within a week of me contacting him on yelp and began taking out posts, unfortunately during this time Austin had heavy downpours for an entire week slowing down the work of the fence. Dylan and his crew still came out here and worked as much as they were able to when the showers would slow down to ensure this project would not become too delayed. Dylan was very easy to get in contact with and would continuously update me with emails, calls, or texts on what work was being done or needed to be done. This was a huge plus when I would need to update my boss,as Dylan kept me in the loop on everything going on. The fence is now completed and looks amazing. If I need any other fence projects to be completed I will most definitely use Dylan and his crew again to get the job done. I will update my review with pictures once I am able to get them off my camera. read more

From the very beginning Dylan was very prompt and overall a nice guy. He did not try to upsale me and trick me into purchasing something I did not need. Listened to our needs and suggested what would be best for our particular project. Paul and Jason did the hard work however! These guys worked in 95+ degree heat and did a perfect job with my repairs and new gate. Even when I wanted to make changes after they were finished they were super polite and worked extremely hard to meet our needs.. If we ever need any more work these guys are the first call I am making. Recommending to everyone and anyone who needs fence work. read more

Jordan did an outstanding job installing a beautiful wooden fence for our house. The price was extremely reasonable. From start to finish, Jordan and his team was professional, courteous, and extremely knowledgeable. They took the time to listen to our needs and preferences, and offered helpful suggestions to ensure that we got exactly what we wanted. The quality of their workmanship is outstanding. read more

Dylan helped us get a privacy fence installed. During the process, he was thoughtful, patient, and super informative. It was really great experience -- can't recommend him enough. read more

The price was reasonable, they were flexible in making changes as we went along, and the final product was *outstanding*. Dylan was easy to work with, and provided timely estimates for adders I requested. The two guys on site, Austin and Jason, were great - they were quick, answered all of my questions, and made good suggestions on their own (but crucially, they didn't deviate from the original plan without discussing it first). And the final results? I couldn't ask for better. It's a sturdy, good-looking, fence that improved the look of my yard considerably. These folks take pride in their work. I'd do business with Austin Outdoor Builders again in a heartbeat. read more

Austin Outdoor Builders built a wrought iron fence for us in a very challenging backyard with slanting elevations. They also crafted a special Gate for safety that perfectly matched the aesthetic of our house. Dylan was our main contact and made the experience pleasant, professional, reasonably priced and prompt. Highly recommend. read more

I had Austin outdoor builders replace our exterior fence. Their communication and pricing was very confusing and unprofessional. They tried to upsell and get additional money from myself and my neighbors, giving different information to each of us. When we reached out to get clarity there was no response. There were quality issues with the fence that were never addressed. read more

We had a fantastic experience with AOB. Our fence looks amazing and super professional - top-of-the-line, even. Dylan was really fun to work with, very communicative, and earned every star on this 5-star review. Noe was very very helpful and willing to make changes on-the-fly. We'd work with them again for sure, and certainly would recommend to others! read more

We hired Austin Outdoor Builders to have a black chainlink fence with privacy slats installed. I was told that the job would take 2 days to complete and that they would be out in 1.5 weeks to begin. It was supposed to be installed on 11/2, but they rescheduled. On the 4th, they installed the posts. Then they came back on the 7th to put up the fence. Today is the 15th, and the privacy slats still have not been added . We have called everyday without a response. At this point, I do not know if I need to hire someone else to finish the job or if they will show up a month from now. About a year ago, I used this company for a cattle panel fence, and they have gone down hill since. Great way to treat repeat business. read more

Noe and Dylan are exceptional in all areas. Great communication, great work, amazing attention to detail. Austin Outdoor Builders fenced in our whole yard with a custom build electric gate and we could not be happier. If anyone asks for a fence building crew this company is my #1 recommendation. read more

These guys built us a great fence. My neighbors used them and the fence looked great so I had them give me a quote and the price was very reasonable. They did great work and cleaned up well after the job. read more

These guys are so competent and professional it made me cry inside comparing to other fly-by-night "business operators" I had the misfortune of using in the past. First off, NO SUBCONTRACTORS. Yeah, from the people who come out for initial survey, build the quote, and then build the fence, they all know it's not just a "take your money" gig, they're all responsible for delivering to exceed expectations. Second, if during the job there's no problems, but at the end they notice that maybe, just maybe, you need a second set of stairs because the height of the deck ends up being just a little too high... THEY JUST BUILD THEM. No change order, just do the right thing. This is why you pay more... contingency is built in to do the job right. Extremely satisfied customer. read more

I requested a quote, and sent the information do David. He ghosted me. No quote, not response to email. Finally gave up on them. Not a small job either. read more

This is an outstanding company! Dylan Cash and his crew were excellent. They replaced our wooden stairs going down to our backyard. The quality of the work was great. Dylan was easy to work with, and answered all questions in a timely manner. The crew was informative and kept a very clean work site. They were also excellent. Thank you Dylan and crew for a job well done! Highly recommend read more

The AOB team was great from quote to finish. Communication is really important for me and the owner always was checking in to make sure I was happy. The crew was hard working, polite and just all around good people. Highly recommend read more

I'd give them 6 stars if that was possible. We put in a fence around our entire yard, with one automated gate over our driveway and a second smaller gate on the other side of the house. AFB was great to work with and I certainly recommend that you use them. They did a great job on our fence! As an example, there were parts of the fence that really needed some craftsmanship to make it look nice (near trees and such) and they took the time to do that. They made sure everything was done right and even did extra work that was beyond the initial plan (double-sided parts of the fence) and did that for free. The crew was also extremely nice and friendly, and were very careful to not upset a neighbor (e.g., they did all the fence construction on our yard vs possibly stepping onto the neighbor's property). Again, I highly recommend them. read more

AOB did an awesome job on my fence. Dylan was great during the quote and pre-project phase and Paul, the lead on site, was very meticulous and took care of all the small details. Any concern I had he took care off and he was excellent at keeping me updated with his progress. This was a tough job and I was not the easiest customer but they definitely delivered. We went with steel posts, horizontal pickets with a 1/2" gap, and Paul welded 3 metal gate frames on site. I am very pleased with the work I had done and would highly recommend AOB's services from both Dylan and Paul. read more

Dylan, Simon, and their team were fantastic. They were flexible, friendly, and all around good folks. We enjoyed working with them. I know this sounds completely unrelated, but they were really nice to our kiddo. Helped her feel safe with the backyard construction going on. Any issues that came up were dealt with immediately. Dylan was a great communicator, respectful, and well...funny. The deck? Freaking gorgeous. We are so happy with it. Of the bids we received, theirs was the best and the work is top notch. Will definitely recommend them to friends and family. read more

I'm very happy with my fence. Noe and the team are great, and went above and beyond in making sure I got the fence that I wanted. Communicative, respectful, and competitively priced. I'll be reaching back out to AOB for future projects on my property. read more

I had the pleasure of getting to work with Dylan and the team on a couple projects between June and July 2018. A section of my deck was demolished when a line of storms came through in late May and my tree toppled on top of it. Called and spoke with Dylan, he was super quick to respond and was out the next day to look at my deck. Upon assessing the damage, Dylan gave me a couple options on how we could proceed to repairing the deck. Dylan came with a vision and brought different options to the table whether it was an option for practicality, cost, and/or improving overall aesthetic. As soon as we decided to move forward with one of the options, Dylan got us the estimate very quickly, we approved, and he was out with his crew very quickly to do the repair work. In the meantime, between the go ahead for the project and the scheduled completion date, Dylan was very diligent about keeping communication about the status of the material orders and project alive. As soon as the repair work on the deck was done, Dylan helped us get a high quality paint job on the newly repaired deck at a great price as well! It looks completely different from the way it did before the storm took it out a couple months ago. Throughout the entire process, Dylan was nothing short of professional, timely, courteous, organized, and incredibly knowledgeable. I will absolutely be calling him next time I need help with any projects at my house. Y'all Rock!!! Thanks again! Austin S. Round Rock, TX read more

Got the fence in my backyard replaced by the team and Brian McCarthy, the guy on the ground making sure the work got done, was absolutely amazing. Direct, open, transparent, and fair. Kept me in the loop every step of the way and presented all facts to be before allowing me to make a decision between plan A and plan B. He'll be the first I call on any future projects. read more

We've worked with a lot of contractors and these guys are by far the best we've worked with! Their work is quality and their communication is top notch.

Very happy with the result and everything looks great! Dylan, was very easy to work with and kept in clear communication as we built out the project and then scheduled the completion.
