    I recently just completed a project with Nu Wave and I recommend them for anyone's landscaping needs. I had recently purchased a home that did not have preexisting landscaping and I sought multiple bids from contractors to get an idea of what it would take to build out my ideal space. Only Nu Wave (James and Justin) was able to give me a fair price transparently and allowed me to work within my budget. One note for prospective customers is to not be afraid of doing research and going out to purchase on your own. Getting yourself educated on what goes into landscaping (hardscaping, lighting, irrigation, plants etc.) will go a long way in getting your project done on time and to the quality you want! Overall James and Justin were an absolute pleasure to work with through-and-through. In the entire process from appointment setting, bid walkthrough, scheduling, break ground and final punch list walkthrough, the Nu Wave crew were courteous, on-time and precise in their craft.

    We recently hired NuWave to install turf and a putting green in our small outdoor space in our condo. They did an amazing job we are very pleased with the quality of work, execution and pricing. James and Justin were very professional and responsive, they got back to us almost immediately with a detailed quote. while it was a small job, they completed it all in just one day start to finish. Now we have an AMAZING oasis to relax and enjoy. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND NuWave for all your backyard and landscaping remodels!

    Demo right in time

    Wow! That's the best word to describe our experience with Nuwave. We had hemmed and hawed for awhile before deciding to replace our grass with turf as it felt like we were quitting something important. The truth is we saw so many of our friends and neighbors take the plunge with mixed results. We have a small footprint but with a new puppy, 2 kids and wanting to use the space for entertaining it was hard to maintain the grass and use it as much as we wanted. Hearing stories of bad contractors, scammers and Rolls Royce prices for the good stuff really slowed us down. Once we decided to get quotes we were still on the fence so we had a couple companies come out. So many options are out there and we went with referred teams. The lowest price quote was sketchy to say the least and most told us it would be over a month to get on the schedule if we signed up immediately. The last guys to come in were James and Justin from nuwave. Two young local guys that I saw doing really amazing work on Instagram. They booked a consult the day after i called them, showed up on time with samples and knowledge. We talked about the space and needs and they let me pick blind a surface from the samples they towed in with them. Pet and family friendly with lots of use expected while looking the most like natural grass. While we're chatting they're throwing in measurements and materials into the tablet and in less time than i spent on hold or with multiple calls to other guys we had a plan, selection and great price. We booked for 3 days later but the rain delayed us for 2 more. Install day came, the demo crew was here early prepping their equipment and they kicked off right at 8. By 4 the same day the site was getting cleaned, we had walked it with the guys and were off and running. We haven't appreciated our yard this much since moving in. Demo, paver edging, base and install crew were fast friendly and kicking butt all day. Highly recommend these guys for anything landscape related you might be considering! Message me for more info if needed. Kids, dog and wife fully endorsed.

    HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Professional, courteous, communicative and very easy to work with! We are absolutely thrilled with how our project turned out. James and Justin were patient (we changed our minds and added things and removed things multiple times) and very accommodating. Super nice guys! The quality of work is excellent and they were consistently part of the process. Checking in and even doing part of the work themselves to make sure we were happy. Stellar experience from start to finish!

    5 stars from top to bottom. Nu Wave Outdoor really did a Great job at my Mom's house. We were very impressed with them from first phone call to the finished product. James was very easy to work with, attentive and accommodating. Their professionalism was top notch and they were very proficient with their time and finished the entire project before the original estimated work end date. Overall we were extremely happy using Nu Wave Outdoor and would recommend them to anyone. Thank you James FYI: The work they did in the backyard included leveling a incline and they built a retaining wall with french drains and they put in pavers as well (new patio!) with a drain. And fill in gravel as well.

    I like to consider myself a pretty handy individual, but when it came to me potentially laying 2000 sq ft. of turf I went straight to the Pros. I had a few concerns in regards to how the turf would hold up with dogs, children and an army of gophers that has been in my yard for many years. I spoke with a few different companies in regards to cost and level of effort and none of them gave me the confidence to proceed with the project. I am so thankful that I met Justin and the team from Nu Wave Outdoor. Upon arrival, I could see that Justin was excited to not only assist me with the project, but I could tell that he takes a sense of pride in the work that he does. We walked around while I explained to him my concerns and ideas for the yard. Within a few minutes, he was able to start walking me through the process of how my yard would be transformed and he put to rest any of the concerns that I previously had. After this experience, I was ready to proceed. Work started immediately, and before I knew it the yard was completed. Not only did they understand my overall goal, but they were able to guide me through the process from start to finish. In no time at all my family and I were enjoying the yard. Would I used this company again? Absolutely.

    Justin was recommended to me by my neighbor, whose beautiful looking synthetic grass picked my attention. Justin was able to fit me in his tight schedule and his team got the job promptly. They are professional and artists at what they do. They use a synthetic grass that looks very natural and appealing. It is a great addition to my backyard, I am so glad I went with Nu Wave. Highly recommended.

    Our front entry is now welcoming.  Seating to follow!

    Effortless process. I had an appointment and estimate within a day of my inquiry on Home Advisor and my project started in less than 2 weeks. Samples were delivered upon request and their design ideas and suggestions really helped. On Day 1, demo day, the pavers were delivered before 7am and the crew arrived just after. Then the dumpster arrived. By 8am work was underway! These guys are great and really know what they are doing and are an absolute pleasure to work with. Justin and James are on site daily and their attention to detail rivals my own! They clean as they go and at the end of each work day, the site was neat and tidy. Clean up at the end is meticulous and you are left with a finished project and clean site. The actual job was done in 4 days and the pavers were sealed on the 5th day. Nu Wave completely transformed my front entry and walkway, turning them into a courtyard. I was able to reuse Mexican beach pebbles and transform a planter bed into a focal point, framed by the new entry. I also have proper drainage and irrigation now. I will eventually extend the work and complete my driveway with pavers and these guys will do it! I am also discussing my backyard pool and bbq area with Nu Wave. Give them a call. You won't be disappointed.

    We used Nu Wave Outdoor for our front yard makeover. We added some small landscaping walls, columns and pavers. Nu Wave demolished and removed all of the old walkways and a few dying trees. They then installed new retaining walls and a paver walkway, stairs and a patio. The job was also done very quickly. Throughout the whole process, start to finish, James and his crew have been completely professional and accessible. Whenever we had questions, he was always quick with a reply. If you are looking to enhance the look of your home with new landscaping, Nu Wave Outdoor would be a smart and safe choice. We love our new yard! Thanks, Nu Wave!

    Working with these guys has been amazing and a privilege. That is from estimate to finish. They say hindsight is 20/20, well, I would go back and use them again and again. They are our new go to referral when friends tell us they need any driveway or patio work. They were very responsive and just general nice guys. Their team is very professional and was a pleasure to work with. You do not get a lot of good customer service today. Well these guys deliver on that too. We got all that and a brand new beautiful driveway (will post the pictures later). I am so happy we used these guys and you will be too. Thank you Nu Wave Outdoor. We very much appreciate you. I wish all of our business in life could go as smooth and great as doing business with you has been.

    This is the second project we have worked on with NuWave. This time around we had pavers, a deck, a fence, and a cable wire rail installed. Happy to report Justin and team continue to exceed expectations. They do high quality work we love the way they helped transform our backyard and make it a functional and beautiful space. Thank you guys.

    These guys are truly top notch service. When getting quotes and debating on who to go with, my husband and I debated back and forth. While Nu Wave wasn't our cheapest quote, it was definitely comparable pricing AND they're level of detail, professionalism and knowledge was BEYOND all others. Choosing Nu Wave paid off! The quality in our backyard, the customer service, flexibility to our needs (helloooo built-in BBQ), level of support and detail made us feel like James and Justin were building the backyard of family or their own home. Always ready to answer our calls, always knew the latest and greatest detail. All while giving genuine advice, even if that meant not spending more money. We can't recommend them enough and will be calling them for any and all future projects and homes. THANK YOU GUYS!!

    Michael B.

    I interviewed at least a half a dozen landscapers and James and Justin were by far the friendliness and professional not to mention their competitive pricing for remodeling my ENTIRE backyard. Crew was always on time and extremely hard working. Nu Wave gave sound honest advise and walked me through my first major remodel. I highly recommend Nu Wave for your next remodel. I could go on but pictures are worth a thousand words...take a look at their work for yourself in the attached before and after pictures.

A couple days before the project was to start, he came back over to make sure everything was correct and we were on the same page (I changed multiple things I wanted done since he had come over for the initial estimate). The crew arrived on time and they were finished a few days earlier than expected. They did so many extra things for me (removed a tree stump and plants that were outside of where the turf was going, added weed barrier in my planter beds, made sure the irrigation was working, among other things) and I'm so thankful. When the job was finished, I somehow over paid Efren. He stopped by my house and dropped off a check for the amount I overpaid. I never would have known I did that, but he was so honest, makes me love his company even more! The turf looks fantastic and we are so happy with the job they did. I cannot recommend them enough! If I ever have more turf projects in the future, I will 100% be calling Efren.
