Our Journey
Our story begins in 1997, the year we got married — a partnership built on faith, grit, and a shared dream of building something meaningful together.
In 2001, that dream took root when we entered the green industry with little more than a Craftsman mower, a Ryobi weedeater with attachments, and a relentless work ethic. What started as a one-man lawn maintenance operation quickly grew. By 2005, we had crews in place, and over the next few years, we steadily added services, licenses, and clients — always looking for ways to offer more value to our customers.
In 2009, everything changed.
We took on a large landscape project in North Dallas that required an outdoor kitchen, deck, and arbor — things we had never built before. To make it happen, we brought in a subcontractor: Texas Outdoor Oasis. The talent was there, but the company was struggling in the aftermath of the 2007–2008 housing market crash. After seeing the potential — and recognizing the heart behind the brand — we made an offer to purchase the business. On January 1, 2010, Texas Outdoor Oasis became ours.
With focused effort, strategic marketing, and a passion for excellence, we hit $1M in revenue in our first year.
But in 2012, we faced another major turning point.
The original owner — who had stayed on to help lead the operation — abruptly left, taking crews and customers with him. It left the business in disarray. After a lot of reflection, we made the tough decision to shut down Texas Outdoor Oasis, refunding customer deposits and resetting everything back to zero, while continuing to operate our still-thriving landscape company.
Then, something remarkable happened.
A carpenter named Tommy Redfearn walked into our office looking for work. He was down on his luck, a bit too old to still be swinging a hammer, but full of heart and integrity. I told him about our recent challenges. Without hesitation, he said, “I don’t need much to get by on, and if you’re willing, let’s take a stab at getting it back up and going.”
And that’s exactly what we did.
Over the next few years, Tommy poured himself into the business — training crews, setting quality standards, and establishing the craftsmanship we’ve become known for today. His influence transformed our trajectory and laid the foundation for the Texas Outdoor Oasis you see now.
Tommy passed away in late 2024, but his legacy lives on in every pool, patio, and outdoor kitchen we build. His commitment to excellence is something we carry forward every single day.
Today, Texas Outdoor Oasis is proud to be one of the most respected names in the pool and outdoor living industry. We’ve grown from a one-man crew to a full-service team of designers, project managers, and skilled tradespeople. And while the industry can still feel like the “wild west,” we’ve made it our mission to bring transparency, structure, and professionalism to every project we touch.
We’re grateful for the journey, and even more excited for what’s ahead.
