Built by Our Crew. Photographed on Site.
Every project below was designed, built, and photographed by our in-house team across Warren, Sterling Heights, Troy, Rochester Hills, Birmingham, Bloomfield Hills, and 35+ more Metro Detroit communities. No stock photos. No subcontractor work. This is us.
From Bare Lots to Beautiful Properties
Overgrown yards, bare dirt, failed DIY attempts — we take properties that aren't working and engineer complete outdoor environments that last.
Patios, Walls & Walkways That Survive Michigan
Michigan's freeze-thaw cycles destroy cheap work in 2-3 winters. Our paver patios, retaining walls, and stone walkways are engineered to look brand-new a decade from now.
Custom Water Features That Actually Work
Leaking ponds, algae problems, broken pumps — we've rebuilt dozens. Our custom water features are designed with proper filtration, winterization, and Michigan-rated materials from day one.
Backyards You'll Actually Use Year-Round
Pergolas, outdoor kitchens, fire pits, and complete living spaces that turn "we never go outside" into "we're out here every night." Designed for Michigan's short summers and long falls.
Structural Walls That Hold Up — Literally
Crumbling walls, soil erosion, and grade problems — we engineer retaining walls with proper drainage and Michigan-rated materials that last decades.
Zero-Tolerance Snow & Ice Removal
Commercial properties, HOAs, and large residential complexes — our fleet handles it all. GPS-tracked, insured, and ready 24/7 from November through April.
Healthy Lawns That Stay Green All Season
Mowing, fertilization, aeration, overseeding, and seasonal cleanups — we keep your lawn healthy from spring thaw to fall leaf drop.
Standing Water? We Fix That.
French drains, catch basins, grading, and downspout routing — we solve drainage problems that destroy foundations, drown lawns, and create mosquito breeding grounds.
What Our Clients Say
"From my first inquiry with Sam in office to end result, I'm very satisfied with The Guy Outdoor Services. Billy the estimator was professional and answered all my questions. Adam our installer arrived on time, excavated day one in just a few hours. Day two he laid the sod and it looks great!"
Sod Installation — November 2025
"They installed my first pond 26 years ago and it continued to be a wonderful pond those 26 years. I thought it was time to freshen it up a bit, and one can always trust The Guy Outdoor Services. The new pond they created for me is outstanding. They are easy to work with and their pricing is very reasonable."
Pond Installation — August 2025
"We hired The Guy Outdoor Services to reconstruct our existing koi pond which needed an entire overhaul. Rob & Matt did an amazing job, taking our leaky, unattractive pond and rebuilding it into a crystal clear vision of absolute beauty. The fish were transferred back and I can see them again!"
Koi Pond Reconstruction — September 2024
