Very professional and did a great job Thx Tanner
Can’t say enough great things about Tanner and his team! Hard working guys who know how to get the job done, and get it done right. I’ve had Tanner and his crew over multiple different times throughout the years and each time I walk away more impressed then I was the last time. Great attention to detail, no corners cut, and always a quality job well done!
Tanner and his crew did an amazing job clearing my shoreline of weeds, adding rock, putting in a granite stairs case , and paver patio that I am in love with. Great communication, hard diligent work, and absolutely wonderful outcome. Highly recommend Canvasback and a lot was accomplished in a short time frame!
Never seen anybody toss a rock like this guy does. Hire him and you’ll get an Olympic shot put performance, along with a beautiful shoreline. Very efficient with their work and extremely happy with the final product.
We have worked with this company many times. They have great communication and go above and beyond what other companies have done. Timely, clean, and professional. Will use them again! - All Around Remodeling, Inc.
