Julian and his team are superb! Julian had great ideas, worked with our specific requests/needs, was always professional, responsive (even when he was on vacation) and courteous. He delivers a quality product on time, on budget (or below!), and we could not be happier. When I first started looking at an outdoor kitchen and fireplace, I thought a pre-fab unit might work. But I'm SO glad we went with Julian's custom designs and construction! The quality is, obviously, much better and I was able to hire sub-contractors to complete the projects to our specifications. We LOVE our fireplace and kitchen
