Pete and his team at Blue Oak did an incredible job on our patio! From start to finish, he was professional, responsive, and detail-oriented. He helped us think through the design, gave clear communication throughout the project, and the finished product is absolutely beautiful. We’ve already gotten so many compliments from friends and neighbors. If you’re looking for quality work with excellent craftsmanship here in Hilliard, we can’t recommend Pete and Blue Oak enough! We even did a camp out this past holiday weekend and it could not have been more perfect!!

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.
Brian Waterhouse
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.
Pat Green
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!
