From drab to fab! Nu Wave transformed my backyard. Their crew was meticulous and courteous. Very happy with their work. Thank you!

Arthur W.

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.

Two-hole Putting Green installed by NuWave

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!

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.

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.

Our front entry is now welcoming.  Seating to follow!
Chris T.

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.

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.

Front yard
M L.

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!

Robert W.

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!!

He was the only one who detailed every item involved in the bid, including update of irrigation. I've had issues in the past with bids for other projects that I assumed included the little details but didn't and then I had to pay extra. Michael's bid included every detail in writing that you would assume would be a part of a new lawn job and it was very reasonable. He also showed up on time for the initial appointment! His crew was great! Their work was very detailed and clean. The job was done within three days and all of the work area, including the driveway, was cleaned up. They even noted my falling-apart fence gate so Michael gave me a very reasonable quote and they did a great job fixing it for me. There were a lot of details for after-care and I've texted Michael multiple times to confirm. He texts back quickly and I never get the impression he's annoyed (I've sent a lot of texts!). I almost wish I had more yard renovations so that I could hire him again! I did discuss a whole-yard mulch job and will absolutely hire Michael when I'm ready for that. No more getting multiple bids for future yard renovations. I'll just call Michael.

We had our design done through Armstrong Garden Center and I liked their design but the bids we were getting with their landscapers were a lot higher than Michael's bid. Also, he was very knowledgeable. He came to do our estimate and we were impressed with his explanation about how he was going to run our water and electrical. No one else who came to give a bid gave a good solution or just didn't know how to do that. So the combination of a good bid and confidence in his knowledge of landscaping made this an easy choice. But best of all, he and his crew delivered on everything that was in the design plus things we decided to add. Now we actually enjoy being in our garden. Thank you!

Finding ourselves in this situation, we needed a team that could transform our "cozy" yard into a comfortable yet elevated outdoor living space. Enter Brookside. You know that feeling when you hire someone to do a big home project and hope that everything goes well, but you kind of hold your breath in the event that something goes awry? That won't happen with Brookside. From our initial call to the thanks-for-everything completion hand shake, they didn't skip a beat. Everything went SO smooth and communication was on point the entire time. Brookside is a well oiled machine. The conversations between us, Brooks and Jenny, and the crew were fluid the entire time and no one was ever in the dark about the plan. On top of that, everyone was so personable and professional. These guys are hard workers and leave your space clean and organized at the end of every day. We were so happy with how our space turned out. Brookside took our basic ideas for hardscape and softscape to the next level and created a beautiful designer yard. We would hire Brookside again in a heartbeat- and you should too!

Brooks and Jenny at Brookside have such a creative and and beautiful aesthetic that we never could have imagined on our own. Their attention to detail is amazing, and their design concept was truly everything we wanted. Even though we have a small yard, they were able to make it look so much larger by moving things around and creating a better flow. It seriously looks like we added square footage. All of the plants that they chose for our yard are so beautiful and unique. Everyone that comes by wants to know what each plant is called because they aren't the very common yard plants that everyone has...they are so interesting! They chose the foliage specifically for what they knew would grow well in our area and with the sunlight for each side of the house. Thoughtfulness went into every aspect of each item they added...from the plants, to the wood and stone for the built in bbq, the special market lights (that are really unique and fun), all the way to the treated concrete. Everything looks like a step above! The work process was easy, and the crews that showed up every day were gracious, kind, friendly and hard working. Over the weeks we got to know the workers, and it was a sad day when it finished and we knew they would not be showing up again every morning. Even our 5 year old knew their names and would announce to us each day who had shown up in the morning. Jenny and Brooks were also very friendly and kind, and were a joy to work with. Such a great team. I have already been showing off their hard work to our neighbors, who are very impressed with the amazing results! Hopefully they will be in our neighborhood working again soon!
