Outdoor Creations

My team and I at The Electric Crew have worked with Outdoor Creations as their electricians for four years on a wide range of landscape design projects. David and his designers are professional and great communicators which allows us to get in and get the job done efficiently. We have a really fantastic working relationship and feel that our ideas and expertise are respected. David's projects result in stunning gardens and outdoor spaces so we love being part of their work. We'd highly recommend them.

David has the most wonderful vision of what can be done with a space, even a small space. After giving him our wishlist for our outdoor pool in a very modest backyard, we were delighted to find everything we wanted was actually possible. The final result is a pool and a space that is everything we wanted and looks more amazing than we could have imaging. Thanks to David and his staff, we have the pool we thought might never work and have added so much value to our property. We have engaged David for two projects over the years and I would highly recommend him.

We engaged David to design and oversee build of our walled front garden with spa and deck. Right from the start we found David very easy to work with and his creative input resulted in a result that was beyond our (high) expectations. One of the great things we found working with David is he really listened to what we wanted our of the space, and was accommodating of our own ideas, integrating them into the design in ways we wouldn't have thought of. The result was a job that looks fantastic from every angle (ground level, looking above from balcony and from within the spa itself) - we can see the thought that went into all of this and made us really appreciate going with Outdoor Creations. Also importantly, three year on and the result still looks fantastic and is very easy to keep looking great - couldn't be happier.

Many thanks to Outdoor Creations for providing a garden that we will be able to enjoy for many years to come. David has been involved from capturing our ideas through initial concept design, layout planning, construction, tendering of landscaping works, selection of plants, trees and their planting. The scope included the front, side and rear gardens. A lighting specialist was engaged to light the path ways and trees around the garden and raised garden beds. David also managed the design, selection and construction of the pool decking and the frameless glass pool fence. We had to deal with a difficult pool inspector but David helped us manage that aspect also. Our pool size was initially constrained by the bay window at the rear of the house but David took advantage of the situation and altered the pool shape by creating a curved section which improved the overall aesthetic as well as optimising the pool size. The whole team have been easy to deal with and were very professional through the process, getting answers to all our questions, being flexible to make changes to the original plans. The end result is a great garden that we are proud of and one that is complementary to the house design. I would highly recommend Outdoor Creations for any landscaping and garden project.

David provided an excellent service. He was not afraid to tell us what he thought and where he thought we could improve on our design for our back garden. We asked Outdoor Creations to then project manage the changes. David ensured that all parties, and there were a lot of them, were coordinated to ensure the work was done in a timely manner. David made sure that no item, no master how small was attended to

We decided to put a pool in our backyard and started getting quotes from several pool builders. They had given us some ideas of how the pool could be but I was not satisfied it could work for us. We had limited space and issues with easements. The lightbulb moment for us was when I looked at the yard and thought "This could turn into a real mess. Let's not put a pool in, let's create an outdoor area with a pool". So off we to the Pool Show and spoke to some landscape companies before we came across David from Outdoor Creations. We instantly got a good feeling and felt that David understood us. We booked him to come and see us. When David came to our house, he humoured me for a few moments as I told him my ideas before he discussed what we should do. "Move the fern to one corner and create a fish pond underneath. Render the walls in the pergola to make it look like an outdoor room. Create the same flooring (travertine) in the pergola and around the pool so the area flows as one. Place the pool close to the fence with some room for a narrow garden bed and create a nice water feature at the far corner of the pool". And that is basically what we did. We employed Outdoor Creations to design and manage the project. They sourced the pool builder and landscape company, which both were excellent. Outdoor Creations handled all the issues that we came across with regulations and easements etc., even while we were overseas. If we were handling this ourselves, I would have given up very quickly. David helped us in all areas of selecting materials and colours while also encouraging us to have our input. The result is a perfectly balanced and functional outdoor area and pool that impresses everyone that visits. The basketball court, spa and back fence was part 2 of the project and fits in perfectly. We feel like we are living in a resort. Most importantly, we do not have anything that we would change. I would recommend to anyone using Outdoor Creations because for us it was a very smart decision. They from overcame hurdles that would have stopped me from continuing and made sure there were no costly mistakes made (like putting the pool in the wrong place). The value they have added to our property is far more than the cost of using them.

i had a landscaping design plan completed by David and his team. David came out to assess the site and offered a huge amount of experience and advice. The end result was a great plan and end result for our garden. The water drainage and plant selections offered we would not have thought about, and as a result we are very happy . We have no problems in recommending any of David's services.

From the moment we met David, we trusted he was the right man for the job. He intuitively knew what were wanted from the minute he stepped into our home. Great vision and ideas. And then having encountered some easement issues David quickly came up with an equally impressive design. Our pool is the feature of our home and thanks to the quality design, workmanship and build, the garden and surrounding landscape looks amazing. So much so our friends call our place "onkara resort". During the build David made every effort to project manage and deal with all the niggly issue that inevitably arise quickly and painlessly. We would highly recommend David and his team to anyone looking for quality work at a reasonable price.

David and his team at Outdoor Creations completed a stunning garden design and implementation for our property at Warrandye. We are happy to recommend David and his entire team at Outdoor Creations for any garden design and implementation. We plan on using David again for our swimming pool area make over too. Highly recommend.
