Cedar Creek Design

About 1 1/2 years ago, we hired Cedar Creek Design to design and add patios and a gas firepit to our backyard. We weren't 100% sure that we wanted a gas firepit, but after much reading we decided to move forward. Now, a year later, we can say that it was a good decision and a fantastic addition to our home. We enjoy many evenings outside, sitting alone or with friends sipping a glass of wine and enjoying the company. We couldn't be more pleased with the design and quality workmanship of Cedar Creek Design. Adam, one of the owners, was our lead and contact. He was great to work with and we highly recommend him and his company. They provide design options, are on time, show up every day, work hard and long and produce an excellent build and landscape. Thank you Cedar Creek for adding so much value to our home and property. D and J Burns North Strabane, PA

The Cedar Creek team did an amazing, multi-phase job, including new deck, pool cabana with bathroom and full bar, and hardscaped fire pit. They really pulled together our “outdoor dream” space for entertaining family and guests for years to come. Adam worked with some tight spacing and dimensions in his design to maximize the functionality of our space and accomplish our usage goals. Whole crew was very polite, hardworking and clean. Really impressive team and we highly recommend!

We installed a pool and pool house in our backyard and worked with Andrew to develop a plan for installing hardscaping and landscaping. Andrew always listened to our ideas (but came up with much better ones!) and worked with us to not overrun our budget. He is a joy to interact with, and the work Cedar Creek did is stunning. Our landscaping was designed to assure we have flowers blooming all through the spring, summer and early fall and the pavers and brick work is perfectly suited to our house and country setting. I highly recommend this business. They are true professionals.

Cedar Creek Design installed a custom patio with a raised covered BBQ area and landscaping at our house. This was a fairly large project and the results were amazing! From first contact to design, contract and project completion the entire process was smooth and timely. The communication was great to keep us informed of start time, completion times and everything in between. The workers were punctual, courteous and reliable. They stayed focused on our project solely for the entirety of the project. I am very pleased with Cedar Creek Design and would bring them back for any landscaping and hardscaping needs that I have in the future. I highly recommend them.

Excellent design and beautiful finished product!!! They are the design team for every job. I cannot wait to get them back for the front yard. I was able to give ideas of what I wanted and they made it even more spectacular.

We had significant hardscaping needs to address both aesthetic and structural issues. Our house is situated on a hillside with multiple retaining walls which were failing. And access to our property is challenging, as our house can only be accessed by an alley. Adam worked with us to craft a comprehensive plan to meet our needs and our budget. Cedar Creek replaced rotted railroad tie walls with Unilock walls; replaced concrete steps with sandstone; removed an old brick patio, regraded the lawn, installed new french drains and a new walkway. Cedar Creek provides the architectural expertise and craftmanship needed for a complex project like ours. That's why we plan to have them back next year to complete the upper portion of our property.

Adam was very easy to work with and responsive to our requests. He and his crew did a fantastic job on our patio & sidewalk! Also the carpenter who built the covered roof did an awesome job! We love our new covered patio!

"Wow"...."Spectacular"...."Love it"....these are some of the comments from friends and neighbors who have seen the finished fire pit, patio, hardscaping and landscaping that Cedar Creek Design completed in our backyard in early November of 2021. My husband and I totally agree! Andrew and his team exceeded our expectations in guiding us through and executing our broad vision for a design that we never would have been able to conceive on our own. Andrew created a beautiful design tailored to our needs and preferences, worked with us to adapt the plans as they unfolded, and met every time target. He and Steve, the crew leader, along with the rest of the crew were professional, highly competent, and paid close attention to detail. We had full confidence in their knowledge and skills from the start and are thrilled with the finished project. Wendy Graham West Mifflin, PA

We worked with Adam and from start to finish he and the team exceeded expectations. He really listened to what we were looking for in the initial design consult and his design had all the elements we mentioned with additional details from his expertise that we wouldn’t have thought of. For the actual construction piece, the team was amazing to watch. A very well oiled machine! They were professional and left the area clean each evening. They worked quickly and with much attention to detail. Adam was on-site several days and jumped in helping the team with any and all tasks. His communication with us was superb through each step of the process. We had quotes from other landscaping companies that were in line price point wise, but Cedar Creek was recommended to us from neighbors and we loved the quality and attention to detail in their stone work and design. We love our new patio space and would highly recommend Cedar Creek for your next project.

Adam and Andrew did excellent work on our patio expansion project. Their proposal showed a higher attention to detail and was a more interesting design than competing proposals. They were knowledgeable in both hardscape and plantings.

Cedar Creek Design transformed our home with an extensive landscaping project, which added outdoor living space, much needed curb appeal and essentially the finishing touch to our completely remodeled family home. We contacted the company in July 2018, nearly a year before remodeling was finished and received a prompt response and meeting with Andrew, Co-owner of Cedar Creek. After a few meetings at our home, in the midst of ongoing construction, Andrew presented a detailed drawing of his vision for a total redesign of our front and back yards, including walkways, stairways, walls, patio space, lighting, and plantings. It was fresh and creative, addressing our concerns and emphasizing the many positive aspects of the property. We were excited about it from the beginning! When the job began in late fall of 2019, the Cedar Creek crew was at our home every day until project completion. Crew leaders, Bill and Steve, were knowledgeable and personable, never minding an interruption to discuss questions or concerns. The rest of the crew was hardworking and respectful of our home and property. We met Adam, Co-owner, as our project was finishing up in June 2020 and he came out to see it and take pictures. Adam and Andrew are both talented, experienced landscape architects with impressive education credentials. They run a service-oriented, conscientious, professional company. We are very satisfied with the results and highly recommend Cedar Creek Design.

Adam and team were great to work with. We put together a nice design that hit our budget target. The patio looks great. We're looking forward to working with them again this spring.

I cannot say enough good things about Cedar Creek Design. They came out within a few days of when we called to look at the job and come up with a sketch and got back to us fairly quickly. We had a beautiful patio/roof put on the back of our house and are absolutely pleased with the outcome. I have to say that it turned out better than what we imagined it would look like! We just LOVE it! The whole crew did an amazing job and were so easy to work with. I would definitely recommend Cedar Creek Design and can assure you that you will be pleased with their work and professionalism!

We reached out to Cedar Creek to help us with not only the landscaping but the overall curb appeal of our house. They did a phenomenal job. Andrew met with us in late 2018 and got our input into what we were looking for. Given the lateness in the year, Andrew felt it was best to wait until 2019 to execute the design plan. He maintained contact with us and reached out to ensure we still wanted the original design. The team was very professional and although landscaping is "dirty" work, they cleaned the area up every day. Needless to say, I am ecstatic with the overall result and the neighbors have complimented us on how great the landscaping looks. My only regret is that I wish I would have found them sooner. There is additional work we are looking for them to do in the near future. If you need any landscaping work done, I recommend the team at Cedar Creek and guarantee you won't be disappointed.

Cedar Creek Design was wonderful to work with. We are extremely pleased with their landscaping plan and work for our home. We highly recommend their company and also plan to use them in the future for our backyard landscaping planning.

We saw Cedar Creek Design at the Pgh Home show and were immediately impressed. We then interviewed three companies and once again Adam from Cedar Creek Design could see our vision and was able to come up with a nice preliminary design. Plus the customer follow up was on point. After a couple design modifications we got on their schedule for August but they were able to start ahead of schedule. Adam said they would be there at 8am on Thursday. That Thursday at 8am Adam was walking up our driveway. Cedar Creek Design was considerate, punctual, well-mannered, and they provided exceptional service. We are 100% thrilled with their entire process. Adam is extremely knowledgeable and provided excellent choices for our patio, water feature and landscaping. He explained options to us and gave the pros and cons of each. Adam also clearly communicated with us during each step of the process, including during the install. The crew was excellent and Steve (their guy in training) was extremely meticulous but also very efficient. Cedar Creek Design will be our only choice for any landscaping needs for years to come.

Andrew and Adam along with their team members were professional in every way I can think. Throughout the project, they promptly responded to our questions and suggestions. They kept us informed before, during and after the project. Their knowledge was superb as was the quality of work. They "cared" about doing the project the right way. This was the first time that we used their services and would not hesitate to call them again or recommend. Our project included a total landscaping of our new home, including patio, natural gas fire pit, retaining boulder wall, and plants.

From the very first communication to the completion of this project, we were completely sold on the professionalism and expertise of the Cedar Creek Design team. The hillside plantings around our existing waterfall are beautiful! We are very pleased with the result and would recommend this company to anyone looking for a landscaping company.

We had a great experience with Cedar Creek from the initial design through each phase of our major hardscaping and landscaping project. They displayed professionalism consistently throughout the project and were conscientious not only about the quality of work but also with the impact the project was having on our neighbors. We live in a tight neighborhood so this was important when selecting a Pro for our project. The end result is awesome and we smile every day as the project has completely transformed the exterior of our home. The design included an overall re-shaping of our property to include a sport court; construction of 40ft + new retaining walls faced with stone; a new patio laid with pavers; re-build of our front porch, new steps and sidewalk constructed with pavers; install of landscaping throughout the property; lighting install to highlight the entry walk, driveway and stone retaining walls; and a new concrete driveway with paver borders. This was a major undertaking and it was well-managed by Adam and Andrew throughout the process. We were thrilled with the end result of our project and the overall experience in working with Cedar Creek Design. We would highly recommend them to any one seeking an honest, hard-working and professional group of professionals to work on their home or property.

This company is very professional. They built a boulder wall around my back yard that led into our new built in swimming pool. The wall is gorgeous, better than I envisioned. I highly recommend this company.

We recently had our landscaping done by Cedar Creek Design and could not be more satisfied. We renovated our home about 6 years ago and have been waiting to do our final step (our landscaping) to make it look and feel like our forever home. These guys knocked it out of the park. We loved their design, and loved it even more once it was complete. They made our vision a reality. Adam and Andrew are talented, knowledgeable and professional. They delivered exactly what we were looking for. We will definitely use Cedar Creek for our phase 2 work in the future. Thanks again for a great experience. We love our now beautiful landscaped yard. We will be recommending Cedar Creek to our friends.

We are very pleased with Cedar Creek. We had problems with deer eating our new plants and Cedar Creek has replaced them all with something different that the deer might not find so tasty. Great workmanship and service.

Cedar Creek just finished some Spring landscaping work for us and, as always, we were very happy. They do great work at fair prices and we would never use anyone else!

We hired Andrew and Adam to put in a patio in our backyard and a walkway to our front door as well as expanding the garden in the front yard. This team showed up on time, and were exceedingly respectful throughout the project, keeping us in the loop and updated as the project progressed. Perhaps most importantly, they were able to offer expert opinion so that the end result for our projects was even better than we hoped for. We really enjoyed working with this team and would highly recommend them to others without equivocation. Andrew and Adam are top notch and we couldn't be happier with how our property looks now.

If you want a company that is good at what they do, work very hard, are timely and attentive to detail, these are your guys! Andrew and Adam are educated in their field, professional and responsive to the customers' needs. I had the area around the house resculpted, a new sidewalk and steps poured and a variety of shrubs and plants installed. The plants they brought were all healthy and beautiful. The job was fully explained before they began the work and included professionally done landscape drawings and photos. There was never a question that was too "dumb," and they both took time to make sure I understood. There was one small issue (which ended up not really being an issue), and they came out to take a look within a day or two of my request. At the end of each day they tidied up, and at the end of the job the lawn around the work was reseeded and returned to its original condition. I am having them return this spring to do some tree trimming and, when needed, will hire them to refresh the new mulching. I can't praise Cedar Creek Design enough. It was a pleasant and refreshing experience and you'll be happy to have them do your job.

I hired Cedar Creek for landscaping of my corner lot. It required a ton of landscaping in order to achieve the privacy that we were looking for. We couldn't have been happier with how Cedar Creek worked with us very closely to design the perfect backyard. We have received a multitude of compliments from our neighbors for how good of a job Cedar Creek did. Not only did the job turn out great, the professionalism of both Andrew and Adam is what stands out the most. If you were to hire Cedar Creek, I guarantee your satisfaction.

I saw their work at a friend's house and it was beautiful. I had a few other companies promise to bid but appeared indifferent. I met both Adam and Andrew but Adam worked on the plan for me. He was so enthusiastic about design and placement, and was able to keep this excitement even when we had presented our own plan ideas. He gave such helpful suggestions and clearly is knowledgeable. We chuckle that his proposal included plant names in the latin, so we had to work a bit to figure out but he was quick to send the information. Installation was done in stages. they showed up when they said they would. We had some stone work which turned out beautifully. He let me add a tree at the last minute and was very reasonable. They are hard working but you also get the sense that they enjoy what they do. They were not the lowest bid by any means, but the work was excellent and even now, months later, we are constantly stopped by people walking by to compliment the yard and ask questions. They will be coming back to replace plants that didn't make it, and to install some fencing for us.

It was a pleasure working with Adam and Andrew. We have nothing but praise with their work, talent, professionalism and accountability. It has been several weeks since they finished our landscaping and just two days ago, Adam stopped by to "check on things"....he walked around the entire property and carefully examined all of our new plants/trees. We are 100% happy with our everything that Adam and Andrew did. We w highly recommend Cedar Creek Design for your next project!

Cedar Creek has done major projects and regular maintenance for us. The major project, complete redesign and installation of our front yard was competed professionally and on time with outstanding results. As the work moved along we made several significant changes, irrigation, additional electrical service, ornamental iron work, none of which rattled these guys. They made recommendations for planting, listened to our concerns, made changes to suit our taste and preferences. They kept on schedule, worked with subcontractors and gave us a beautiful setting for our home. We had Adam and Andrew add landscape lighting to the project and what a difference it made. We then had them install lighting in out rear yard and pool enclosure, WOW! It looks like a high end resort! They returned that fall and next spring to replace a few plants that did not please them. They also have done fall and spring clean-ups and mulching. Adam and Andrew are GREAT! They are the ones to call for good design, installation and maintenance. Most important to me, they return calls, show up when they say they will or call and explain why they are not coming that day.

Cedar Creek Design did an exceptional job with the landscaping around my pool, as well as the lighting on the front of my house. The guys showed up and worked diligently each day, providing excellent consultation and attention to each detail. I am incredibly happy with the way everything turned out...beautiful job Adam and Andrew. Thank you again

Adam and his team did a great job at providing a concept for an entry to a new community we were developing. The installation was without a hitch. They showed up when they said they would and finished the job on time and on budget. I was very pleased with the outcome and will work with them in the future.

Adam and Andrew were very professional and courteous from the time they arrived to provide our quote and throughout the entire process. We had our landscaping removed from the front and along the side of our house. That was 35 years worth of growth. They provided us with a design and plant suggestions. They were very flexible and open to recommendations of plants/trees/shrubs that I had. They were punctual with their start and finish dates. I had 2 shrubs along the side of my house that did not take. Andrew was quick to respond to my call and came out to the house, evaluated the situation and ordered and installed 2 new shrubs, which have taken wonderfully. I also had some lavender that did not do well in one of my islands. Again, Andrew came out to my house and together we decided what to replace them with. These two professionals go out of their way to satisfy their customers. Upon completion of the job, they cleaned everything up and planted grass seed where needed. Any questions that I have had regarding plant care, from pruning to winter preparation, have always been answered in a prompt manner. I would without hesitation recommendation this company!

What started with a need to install French drains to solve a water problem in our basement ended with a complete transformation to our backyard. The problem is solved and we couldn't be happier our new backyard. We originally had a 45 degree pitch extending from woods to a concrete slab patio. Andrew sat down with us several times to listen to our needs and ideas and came up with his design. He was very open to our suggestions, giving the pros and cons of each. We especially loved his curved stone retaining wall and lighting design. We had many samples of stone and pavers to choose from, but he directed us to his source to check out many other samples. Neat, meticulous, and thorough are just a few of the adjectives to describe them. Andrew and his partner Adam work so well together. Adam's knowledge of the plants, shrubs, and trees was so helpful. (We have a deer problem). They returned after completion to make sure we were happy with their work and to check on the health of their plantings. Our patio turned into 2 tiers with a fire pit on the lower one. They placed 3 landscaping boulders next to it. It was exactly what we had in mind. We have already given out several of their cards and would not hesitate in recommending them in the future. Just words don't do justice to their work they did for us.

We put a pool in this summer and hired Cedar Creek to design our landscape, thus replacing our entire backyard. They also put up a natural stone retaining wall and installed all of the lighting around the pool and garden area. Their plans were well thought out. Adam & Andrew did a wonderful job & transformed our yard into a beautiful and relaxing area. They were very receptive and flexible to making any small changes that we requested. They are both very knowledgeable and gave excellent expert advice, which we appreciated so much! We love our new yard! Thank you for all of your hard work!

Cedar Creek Design was wonderful to work with. We completely demolished and replaced our front porch, two sets of steps, and a walkway around our house and a connecting walkway to our daughter's house next door. We also relandscaped the front of our house. Adam gave us several drawings to choose from. He was very professional in all his dealings with us. He was open to suggestion if we wanted to change something. The work was done in a timely manner. If Adam said he was going to do something, he did it. He and his coworker Andrew were very hardworking. We were astonished at the amount of work the two of them got done. We were also impressed that at the end of every day, they cleaned everything up and didn't leave construction debris littering the property. We have had many positive comments since the project was finished.

Cedar Creek did a fantastic landscape and pool/patio design for us. Complete with planting plan for every tree/shrub on the lot. We met with Adam and reviewed the rough ideas we had for our lot which was unfinished on a brand new house. We outlined the pool specs and Adam did 2 high-level concept drawings to get a sense of our design preferences for the pool/patio space as that would dictate the rest of the landscape. We chose one and continued to refine it from there. Mid-way through we even changed the pool overall shape and moved from a already designed tiered deck to a raised patio and Adam was very accommodating. He designed the entire raised patio and firepit seat wall as well as all the concrete decking around the pool. He was patient as we tweaked the design. When we were close on the pool design he put it in CAD and created exact specs for our pool installer to use. He then completed a comprehensive planting plan for our front, back and side yards. Overall I think they did a wonderful job for a fair price.

I hired the group from Cedar Creek Design to revamp my landscaping at my home. It was exciting to see the great design that Adam gave me on paper come to life in my landscaping. I have an issue with deer where I live. Adam took that into consideration while choosing plants and trees. I can not say enough about the design and implementation of the entire project. It was refreshing to have a contractor show up on time and exceed all of my expectations. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to change out or or create new landscaping.

The fellas from Cedar Creek Design did an excellent job in designing and installing new landscaping and a retaining wall for our house. The design options they offered were professionally drawn and very helpful to us in choosing the final layout. We are extremely satisfied with their services and would definitely use them again.

Cedar Creek Design is a top notch Landscaping design firm with an excellent eye for what needs done and how to achieve the end results. I have used them professionally on my residential design projects as well as my personal projects. I highly recommend this professional organization. Vista Design Group, LLC
