Testimonials
We had pavers installed in the front and a paver patio was created in our backyard with lighting and a waterfall. We had beautiful trees and bushes put in to compliment our modern design. We have paver walls with lights and a gate to close off the patio. Creative designs did such an amazing job that neighbors have stopped by to admire our landscaping and lighting. Our home looks like it should be showcased in a design magazine. We are so happy that we hired Creative Designs.
Our experience with Creative Design was well beyond outstanding, from beginning through completion. The first meeting with Justin was to brainstorm and come up with refreshing ideas of what we might like in our back patio and front walkway. Based on this information, Creative generated a 3D presentation that gave us a true perspective of what the finished product would look like. We were also handed a full presentation booklet, which gave us the time and opportunity to review at our leisure and decide if we wanted to make any changes. It was very helpful to meet Justin at the paver company and see the actual variety of pavers that we could select, as opposed to just seeing them in a sample book. Similarly, at the nursery, we were able to select the exact trees and shrubs we wanted and Justin labeled them on the spot so that they were automatically reserved for us. All of the permits, paperwork, electrical work, etc, were handled by Creative which, basically, made it a one-stop shop. The four-man team that was assigned to our project were incredibly hard workers, who worked continuously from early morning until quitting time, except for their lunch break. They were polite, professional and exceptionally accommodating. I might add that at no time did we ever see them looking into the window, even though we had the blinds open. The office staff was also excellent and made communication very simple. Based on our experience with Creative Design, we award them the highest recommendation possible.
Justin and his crew just finished redoing our driveway. This is the third large job he did for us, he is always 100% on top of everything. Never any work for us, he takes care of everything including permits.
Justin and his crew just finished a complete overhaul of our outside spaces including new pavers, driveway, steps, bar, walkway, patio, firepit and landscaping. Justin took care of permits, variances, and all designs and made this all come to life in a stunning and functional way. They took care of every detail and when they left, everything was perfect, clean and usable. We didn't have to follow up with anything. The team of workers was considerate and professional and the communication of what was happening each day was great. We would definitely recommend and use again in the future!
After scheduling Creative Design for an estimate on a new patio in our backyard, I checked Houzz to see reviews on their prior projects in the area. While their work is beautiful, I had my doubts we'd use them as their estimated costs were definitely more than we were looking to spend. The day of our meeting, Justin, the owner showed up on time and gave us a rundown of what separates his process from the rest. He then gave us an idea of what he could do with our yard space. We were impressed with his professionalism and blown away when he had an estimate and HGTV worthy rendering of our new patio in our inbox a couple days later. To say his design was more than we could have imagined was an understatement. While it was still more expensive than what we planned to spend initially, it wasn't the six-figure sum I feared. Knowing he uses his architectural background to go above and beyond industry standards to create a structurally sound and impressive hardscape, we decided to give him our business as we trusted his process. We are very happy we did! Justin, stuck to the timeline he first gave us and their were no unexpected costs. Creative Design took care of the permits we needed and were on site for all inspections. Justin took us to the nursery to select the Techo-Bloc pavers we'd use. Once the project started, any added touches he felt would enhance our patio were taken care of by him. His crew was very friendly and professional. Justin and/or his brother Danny were on site every single day. Justin would email my wife and I often to give us a rundown of what was happening in our backyard and what the next steps would entail. He is great at communicating and typically answered any emails we sent within minutes. His sub-contractors (sprinklers, electrician, plumber for gas line) were all professional and easy to work with. His Dad even stopped by one day to assemble our built-in grill and couldn't have been nicer! After three weeks, our patio was complete and more impressive than we could have imagined! Justin and his crew left our lawn looking better than when he started. They re-sodded, seeded and mulched our landscape. In this day and age when it's next to impossible to get a contractor out to your house, Justin and Creative Design are a breath of fresh air. He truly believes in delivering above and beyond for his customers and truly seems to appreciate our business. You get what you pay for with Creative Design and I would fully recommend Justin and his team to anyone looking to create their dream backyard!
The owner, Justin and his team are extremely professional and organized. I connected them to a commercial installation at Hunterdon Medical Center and they were easy to work with, responsive and knowledgeable. The work was done quickly and no detail was overlooked from safety and site conditions to cleanup and administrative details. I would highly recommend them to anyone!
I worked with Justin and Creative Design and Maintenance, LLC on the paver and landscape installation at The Church of Saint Uriel the Archangel in Sea Girt, New Jersey. From start to finish Justin and his team were extremely professional. They designed the entire landscape and handled the permit process with the town as well. We removed a few large trees and they coordinated with the irrigation and the tree service so that things ran smoothly. We did not need to do anything once we contracted with Creative Design. The pavers at the front entrance were installed the correct way and the plantings are beautiful. We look forward to enjoying the church's new exterior for many years to come.
Justin and his team are the epitome of professionalism. From inception to completion, my patio project was executed flawlessly! I have recently moved to South Jersey and, since I was so impressed with the jobs that Justin did in my first home, I contracted him again for my new home. I wouldn't even consider using anyone else. His crew is respectful and neat, taking into account the rules of the HOA and township. This is a turnkey operation as I didn't have to deal with permits, etc. Justin and his team handled everything while keeping me informed daily of progress/next steps. If only all businesses were run this efficiently! Needless to say, his work is impeccable. Don't hesitate - sign the contract today!

Justin and the Creative Design team provided outstanding service from start to finish in the installation of our new driveway and walkways. The design was well thought out, including drainage, paver selection, and landscaping. His team provided excellent computer aided images which greatly assisted us in choosing the design patterns. The installation crew’s workmanship was exceptional. They were courteous, professional, hard-working and always cleaned up each day, as our neighbors frequently commented. The crew was also flexible in making minor adjustments to the installation that we requested. The office was diligent and very responsive. Justin was involved at all stages and frequently came by to check on the work progress. He made sure any final adjustments were made in a timely manner. The project was completed as scheduled. We highly recommend Justin and his team.
This review is for Justin Tal and his Creative Design team. I accidentally bumped into a yard sign for Creative Design in my neighborhood last year. We were putting off a backyard renovation for years because I wanted a contractor who was passionate about his job and had the knowledge & experience to make that one-of-a-kind outdoor space for us. When I saw Justin's work in our neighborhood, and the reviews from my neighbor, we called for estimates. Justin & his team are true professionals and they did a fantastic job creating that outdoor space for us. Their professionalism and commitment to their work is commendable. We liked their work so much, we had them come again this year to build a veggie garden for us. If you are looking for a contractor who is accountable and responsible to their work, I will highly recommend Creative Design.
