About

Hi, I'm Ryan and I started West Clay Outdoor Living 8 years ago after my own family had a bad experience with a national chain. We focus on doing fewer jobs really well rather than chasing volume. We use commercial-grade materials on every job, even the small ones. I'd be honored to earn a place on your speed dial. Demo listing

Wow — what a refreshing experience. Ryan and they rebuilt the retaining wall the previous owners had let collapse, and they explained everything in plain English without talking down to us. Ten out of ten — this is how it should be.

These folks are the real deal. Ryan and they rebuilt the retaining wall the previous owners had let collapse, and they picked up after themselves every single day. We've already recommended Ryan to two neighbors.

Top-notch in every way. Ryan and they designed and installed a paver patio with a fire pit area.

Great experience with one tiny nitpick. Ryan and they completely transformed our backyard the week before our daughter's grad party.

Couldn't be happier with how this turned out. Ryan and they set up an irrigation system with smart controller — water bill actually went down.

Would recommend to friends. Ryan rebuilt the retaining wall the previous owners had let collapse, and the whole crew had a clearly labeled truck and uniformed crew. They also picked up after themselves every single day, which we really appreciated. Would call them again without hesitation.

Dependable and easy to work with. Ryan redid all the foundation beds with proper drainage and fresh plantings, and the whole crew took the time to answer every question we had. They also stuck to the original quote with no surprise add-ons, which we really appreciated. Would call them again without hesitation.

Absolutely the best experience we've had with a contractor. Ryan and they ground out three big stumps and reseeded those spots beautifully, and they called the night before to confirm. Saved their number to favorites.

Genuinely good work and good people. Ryan and they set up an irrigation system with smart controller — water bill actually went down, and they made sure our dog was comfortable around the crew. Highly recommend with one minor caveat — but no big deal.

Some real issues we had to work through. Ryan and the crew designed and installed a paver patio with a fire pit area, and they took the time to answer every question we had. We'd think twice before calling them again.

Job is finished and works fine, just not blown away. Ryan and the team built us a beautiful flagstone walkway from the driveway to the patio.

Could not ask for better. Ryan and they installed sod across the entire backyard after we replaced the deck, and they picked up after themselves every single day. Saved their number to favorites.

Really pleased with the result. Ryan did a full spring cleanup and edged every bed crisply, and the whole crew left the worksite cleaner than they found it. They also offered three different options at three different price points, which we really appreciated. Highly recommend with one minor caveat — but no big deal.
