Kyle was kind, patient and answered all my questions! 10/10 recommend for any backyard renovations!
Fantastic work!! Will recommend to friends.
Erdmann did a wonderful job of building our deck and pergola. Would recommend them for any outdoor project. Top notch from the beginning to the end!
Erdmann removed a deck, patio, and path and installed a smaller, more modern deck with lightning, a larger patio with fence and planters, and an amazing half-circle brick walkway with lighting.
I was very impressed from the initial meeting to the final approval. They did a great job of providing periodic updates and keeping me in the loop as the project moved forward. On-hand crew was outstanding with Justin and team. I would recommend them to family and friends.
We were very pleased with the installation team (led by Josh, that included Ramon and Hayden - all were excellent). The quality and functionality of the StruXture unit is very impressive. We are very satisfied with the entire Erdmann team.
From my very first call to the completion of my shade structure installation, Kyle and his team were responsive and attentive to this unique project's needs. We worked together with the village of Winnetka to coordinate the installation of shade structure at a commercial site that is truly one of a kind. Erdmann Outdoor Living was able to help me transform and revitalize an abandoned service station and installed a beautiful structure, giving a modern look to this historic and unique building located in Winnetka, Illinois. I would highly recommend Erdmann Outdoor Living when you are ready to transform your outdoor space.
As a realtor, and someone who is asked for advice on who to use to make their outdoor space true "outdoor living", I will always tell them to call Erdmann Outdoor Living. They are hands down the most thorough, detail oriented and quality outdoor living company that I have worked with. They take their time to understand what your goals are, are quick to answer questions, and have a great reputation of delivering exactly what they promised. I can confidently say that their work will increase the value of your home, and the amount of time you will want to spend there!
We hired Erdmann Outdoor Living to transform our old backyard patio into a beautiful new deck and patio. We were very happy with the design and product selection process and felt like all of our preferences and concerns were taken into consideration. We are so pleased with the quality and functionality of both the deck and patio. It has transformed our backyard into a space we actually use and enjoy. The project managers and workers were all very responsive to any questions or concerns we had, and completed the project in a timely manner. Overall we were very happy with the process and outcome.
We chose to work with Erdmann Outdoor Living to help us create our backyard outdoor space. They were easy to work with and came up with a design option that really maximized what we felt was important to us. The finished product was not only aesthetically pleasing, but also functional for our family. The features that stand out including our built-in grill, counter space with a drop-in ice chest, dual garbage/recycle bins, outdoor lighting, a "Big Fan" under the covered roof, and a space for our fire pit with enough wall seating for others to join the fun! They even installed our outdoor TV! They created a walkway from the front of the house to the back as a path to access the patio. Appreciate working with Becca and Kyle - they thought of everything we would need to make this special for us! We really love our space.
We are beyond thrilled with our pergola and new outdoor living space! The process from start to finish was very straightforward and all team members were great to work with! We cannot thank Josh, Hayden and the rest of the construction crew enough for their hard work, excellent craftsmanship, and superior kindness! We have 3 kids who LOVED to watch them work, and they were so patient and understanding. We trusted them completely and look forward to working with them on future projects!
Just got my pergola done by these guys! Everything looks amazing. The design was exactly what we were looking for and everything was completed on time. John, the project manager always kept me updated and his crew Hayden, Samuel, and David did a great job as well. Highly recommend!
I received competitive bids from 3 decking contractors and even though they were not the least expensive I selected Erdmann Outdoor Living. It was one of the better decisions that I could have made. From the time we first spoke with Jimmy in preparation of the proposal to the final walkthrough with Kevin the experience was exceptional. Our final product is one we will enjoy for many years to come. Emily in the office provided immediate support anytime I had a question. The installation team of Tim, Ricky, Kevin, Hayden and Ryan were professional, pleasant and respectful. The project took four weeks for completion and included a deck and pergola. Their work was completed with great detail with an excellent finished product. Thank you Kevin for an outdoor living space for which we can be proud for many year to come.

We recently completed are deck project with Erdmann Exteriors. From start to finish the entire team was fantastic. It was very helpful to see our deck design come to life in pictures to ensure we were making the right choices to fit our needs. I can’t say enough positive things about our install crew. Josh and Hayden did an awesome job and the attention to the little details especially on the feature wall really paid off. It’s clear Erdmann does high quality work and has the staff to pull it altogether. Very pleased with the entire project that has received a ton of positive comments from the neighbors.

Erdmann built us a beautiful composite deck and outdoor living area. Everything about the process and construction was professional and well done. Our guests say it’s a backyard paradise! Kyle and Becca were creative with the design and made the best use of our space. Kevin did a super job guiding us through the process. We couldn’t be happier! I also want to give a shout out to Tim for the hundreds of hours he put in constructing our deck. He was always friendly and great to work with!

Edrmann did a really amazing job on our backyard! Kyle was always very responsive to all my questions. The team removed our old deck and put a new, bigger, and better quality deck in! Tim & Nick were a great team to have on our project. They were very nice & clean workers. I was also very happy to have check-in meetings with Kevin. Becca did a great job with the renderings. We also added an outdoor kitchen, outdoor shower, a couple privacy walls, and the Struxure. She was very patient with me when it came to the layout of everything. I was able to see how everything would be laid out in 3D and in the colors I chose. Which made me feel very comfortable. I absolutely love the cabinet color and counters Becca helped me choose. I would highly recommend Erdmann Outdoor Living!
Erdmann Outdoor Living built a screened-in porch on the back of my house and a small deck on the side of my house. This was my third project with Erdmann - previous projects included siding, windows, soffit, fascia, and a new front porch. Kyle and Becca did a great job understanding what I was looking for. The CAD drawings that were completed by Becca were very helpful in visualizing the final product. The detailed contract completed by Kyle ensured that my expectations were being met. All of the materials used in the project were high quality. The extra attention to taping and flashing the deck and roof structures to ensure that water infiltration would never be a problem were exceptional. Josh, Hayden, and Ramone were the onsite crew. Josh was great at explaining each step of the process and what would be happening each day. He was patient and always took the time to answer my questions thoroughly; it was very clear that he wanted to ensure that I would be happy with the end result. The guys were very respectful of my property and fun to have on-site. A few weeks after the job was completed, Kyle came out to my house to turn over the warranty documents and to check to see if there were any issues that they needed to take care of. This is a major reason as to why I've used Erdmann on so many of my house projects. I know they will be around for many years to come, and they will stand behind their workmanship and the products that they use.
