We had an outstanding experience with Smucker’s Hardscape & Outdoor Living, and they truly exceeded our expectations in every way. After dealing with major issues left behind by our pool contractor, Smucker’s stepped in and completely turned the project around with professionalism, expertise, and exceptional craftsmanship.

Smucker’s corrected and completed critical work that the pool company either failed to perform or performed incorrectly. This included properly installing the all the required pool stormwater management system and removing and reinstalling the pool pavers that had been done improperly. Both items were essential to meeting township and township engineering requirements to finish the pool project even before the other work that Mel and Smucker’s Hardscape & Outdoor Living where originally planning to do.

While the original pool company refused to take responsibility for their mistakes, Smucker’s took ownership of the situation and delivered solutions that were done right the first time.

What truly sets Smucker’s apart is the quality of their work and materials. Every aspect of the project was completed with precision, durability, and long-term performance in mind. They clearly take pride in using high-quality materials and combining them with skilled craftsmanship and attention to detail. The result is not only beautiful, but built to last.

In addition to resolving the compliance and structural issues yjr pool company left behind, Smucker’s completed extensive and stunning outdoor improvements, including:

Three level boulder retaining walls with decorative stone

Rock steps and stone walking paths with decorative stone accents

Three raised garden beds

Two more stepping stone walkways with decorative stone

Outdoor lighting around the pool and one stepping stone walkway

Additional one level boulder wall to highlight one of the stepping stone way with decorative stone

Belgian block borders around all plant beds

Complete site cleanup and yard seeding

Each feature was thoughtfully designed and expertly installed, transforming our yard into a cohesive and polished outdoor living space. The finished product looks incredible and functions exactly as it should.

Beyond the physical work, Smucker’s demonstrated outstanding communication, reliability, and professionalism. They were detail-oriented, respectful of our property, and consistently focused on delivering top-tier results. It was clear from start to finish that they genuinely care about their clients and the quality of their work. They show up early each day and work hard throughout the day.

We confidently recommend Smucker’s Hardscape & Outdoor Living for any outdoor living project—big or small. They give every job the same level of attention, focus, and craftsmanship, and the end result is a beautiful, high-quality outdoor space you can be proud of for years to come.

I met with Mel in late spring to discuss a large backyard project that also required coordination with our pool builder. What started as a blank canvas—aside from some DIY work left by the previous owner that needed to be completely removed—quickly became something truly special. Because of the natural terrain of the yard, Mel designed an upper deck area with two patio-length steps that completely transformed the space and gave it an unmistakable resort-style feel. From the very beginning, he listened carefully to our vision and thoughtfully brought it to life, creating an outdoor living space that will become our favorite place to be.

Work began in mid-summer, and Jonathan, Ivan, Jay, and Ive were nothing short of amazing. Watching them work over several months was honestly inspiring. Everything was done by hand—nothing prefabricated—and the level of care, precision, and craftsmanship was astonishing. I found myself in constant awe of what they were able to accomplish day after day.

They removed old concrete slabs and poorly constructed pillars and replaced them with nearly 2,000 square feet of Techo-Bloc pavers, a pavilion with a countertop and two heaters, a firepit with a seating wall, and an outdoor kitchen complete with a griddle, grill, and refrigerator. Every detail was intentional, and every member of the team is a true craftsman.

We were so impressed that we added a small front-yard project to remove more of the previous owner’s DIY work and create a cohesive flow from front to back. We are beyond excited to fully enjoy this space when warmer weather arrives—it already feels like a personal retreat right in our own backyard.

Thank you so much to the entire Smucker's team. We can't wait to have you back out in the spring!

Smucker's Hardscape & Outdoor Living completely transformed our backyard into a beautiful oasis! They built a stunning pavilion with an outdoor kitchen, retractable sides, and heaters so we can enjoy it year-round. They also created a gorgeous fire pit area surrounded by expertly crafted stonework. The masonry is absolutely top-notch...true artistry and precision!

Mel collaborated with us on every design detail and made great suggestions along the way. His team was hardworking, professional and took real pride in their work. We couldn't be happier and highly recommend them to anyone looking for high-quality stone and outdoor living construction!

Mel and his team were nothing short of professionals! Extremely nice, always responsive, hard working, accommodating, and paid close attention to every single detail. They did an incredible job on our patio and completed a pretty large project within a 6 week timeframe. They are also very reasonably priced for the quality work they do and the materials used. 10/10 recommend.

My husband and I recently had the pleasure of working with Mel and his team for a complete backyard renovation, and we cannot speak highly enough about the incredible job they did. From start to finish, the entire experience was seamless, professional, and truly transformative for our outdoor space.

From our first consultation, Mel and team exhibited unmatched expertise and creativity. They took the time to understand our vision and offered valuable insights that enhanced our ideas. Their attention to detail was evident, and we appreciated how they collaborated with us throughout the design process to create a plan that perfectly suited our needs and aesthetic preferences.

The workmanship displayed was exceptional. They transformed our neglected backyard into a stunning oasis that we now love showing off. The quality of materials they used is top-notch, and it’s clear that they prioritize durability and visual appeal.

What truly set Smuckers apart was their professionalism and commitment to customer satisfaction. They adhered to the timeline we discussed, and the entire crew arrived on time each day, working diligently until the project was completed. The team was friendly, respectful, and maintained a clean work environment, which made the process all the more enjoyable.

We wholeheartedly recommend Smuckers for any hardscaping needs. Their professionalism, workmanship, and dedication to customer satisfaction have turned our backyard into a dream space. We can hardly wait to enjoy our new outdoor area, and look forward to working with them again for future projects. Thank you, Mel and team, for your outstanding work!

Smucker’s Hardscape and Outdoor Living was a great company to work with! Mel took the time to help us figure what would work best for us and his team did an awesome job on our patio. Highly recommend!
Response from the owner:Thanks for your great review. We all enjoyed working with you throughout the entire process.

Smucker's Hardscape & Outdoor Living just finished up our patio and we are so pleased with how it turned out. We had a few estimates for our patio and because we have a new build home, we had some concerns about future ground settlement but were eager to get a patio soon if possible! Mel and his team assured us they do extensive prep work to ensure if the ground shifts, our patio will not be ruined. Ultimately it is because of this prep work, that we chose to go with Mel's company. His workers are hardworking and meticulous to ensure the placement of everything is perfect. Overall, we are very happy with our project and have recommended his company to others in our neighborhood!
Response from the owner:Thanks for your kind review. We all really enjoyed working with you on your project.
