“Gary van Eijk is a great talent when it comes to landscape design. He is professional, detail oriented and extremely creative. We have worked together on a multitude of projects and each shared client has enjoyed the seamless interaction between the disciplines of home and landscape design. We highly recommend Gary van Eijk and his team at Uncommon Ground Design Group.”

“We had our entire backyard taken from nothing to a dream oasis. Richard and his positive, respectful crew, worked with us until every detail we envisioned was a reality. They began by setting the grades for the entire project including the work to be done by our pool contractor. After that, they created natural retaining for our very sloped yard, constructed a concrete sports pad, laid flag stone, built a natural stone BBQ, fireplace, water fall, and pool house. Their attention to every detail is exactly what my wife and I were looking for. The crew finished by creating beautiful beds and plantings to suit our vision. Some of the things outside of their landscape skill set that we truly appreciated was their daily clean up, their respectful nature to our children and their constant willingness to listen to our thoughts. We would highly recommend Richard and the LandArt crew.”

“I hired Planit Green twice because they did such a great job the first time (2012) I called them for another project (2014). They re-did my entire back yard...took up all old patio stones & replaced it with beautiful interlocking, installed a stone waterfall on the pool, put in gardens...did all of the planting, built in gas bar-b-que, privacy screen, built a pergola. Last Fall I had Planit Green come back & replace the steps on the side of the house. I can not say enough about this company, they are extremely professional, always had the job done when promised, all of the workers were very friendly & answered any questions I had related to the job. Planit Green went above & beyond all work that was done! I would highly recommend them!”

“Best thing we did is give Dusil Design free reign to design and implement our property and gardens. She's an artist true and through. The metalic artwork is a discussion point for everyone that comes over. We want more!”

“Dave designed a landscape for me. His design was exactly what I was looking for, We implemented his design and turned out beautifully.”

“I have known Adele for many years, and when it came time to redesign our front garden, I knew who to call. As an interior designer, I had ideas of colours and the way I wanted the garden to 'feel', but had no idea of plant characteristics. Adele listened to our needs and came up with a beautiful design that has been relatively low maintenance, which was one of our requirements. Our garden is into it's 4th summer now and just keeps looking more stunning each year. Well done, Adele!”

“Janine was amazing to work with. Not only is she a nice person but very talented at what she does. She was able to create my backyard to utilize all the different levels and keep it simple the way I wanted.”

“GELDERMAN LANDSCAPE SERVICES: Outstanding Company! C - CREATION AND CONSULTATION: Throughout this phase of the project, Harry Gelderman visited our home a few times to see and discuss the areas in our front, side and back yards that I was interested in having improved. He was an active listener as I shared my wishes and ideas, and offered good suggestions to be considered. With his team, he was diligent in creating a design that was both plausible as well as aesthetically pleasing. The final design reflected a shared understanding of what I had chosen and desired. A - ACCOUNTABILITY: Harry was diligent in meeting or exceeding his promised timelines, and was very quick to respond to the many emails I sent throughout the process. Quotes and the “Scope of Work” were promptly provided. Workers certainly arrived early (7:00 AM) and put in full days of hard work. Harry also managed sub-contractors for some portions of the work (eg. paving, stone selection, sod) and all sub-contracted companies also performed at a stellar calibre. R - RESPECT: All transactions were professional and respectful. A positive sense of humour was evident and their receptiveness to my ongoing commentary, input and praise was always received with the utmost respect. I enjoyed the levity which enhanced the confidence and trust developed between me and all who worked here, especially Jay. Respect for my neighbour’s property was also evident as our massive project unfolded, and clean up each night was well done. This was greatly appreciated. E- EVIDENCE: The true test of a company’s efficacy is in both the process and the product. The process to achieve the desired goals exemplified their “service-oriented” mindset and delivery. As the project evolved and when I got new ideas or when queries surfaced, all workers were attentive, accommodating, and diligent in ensuring I would be happy with the product. Through the demonstration of their strong knowledge of best practices, refined craftsmanship skills and a positive attitude topped with a great sense of humour, I watched, learned, and admired them for the expertise that they brought to this project. Jay, Darren, Big Jon, Andre and John were absolutely superb! This was a large project and I certainly had many high expectations throughout, however they were patient, wise, informative and humorous. I appreciated them educating me and sharing their honesty of what they thought would look good and what might not, so I could make informed final decisions. They gave me great options to consider and I had no regrets on decisions made. Gelderman landscaping has amazing employees working there! They know their stuff! With C. (Creation and Consultation), A. (Accountability), R. (Respect) and E. (Evidence) – C.A.R.E, those working for Gelderman Landscape Services demonstrated how much they truly C.A.R.E. about their work and the customer’s happiness. I am thrilled with the results, and I highly recommend this company! Ina Fournier”

“We hired Meaghan at Living Rooms Landscape Design to create a design for our deck and garden last summer, and she did a fantastic job! Meaghan took the time to take careful measurements, photos, and really listened to our wishes to create a beautiful design. We asked for several modifications, and Meaghan provided timely adjusted drafts for our review, and gave us additional drafts with some of her ideas we hadn't even thought of (which ended up being a design we chose!). She knew exactly what types of trees and plants would work in various parts of our yard, and used that knowledge to create a fantastic space we are thrilled with. She was easy to work with, but also very professional - we were very pleased with the process start to finish! I would highly recommend Meaghan to anyone wanting to create an amazing outdoor space for your home.”

“Environmental Design has done many, many projects for us over the years and we don't hesitate to go back to them again with anything new. Always very professional and nothing but the highest quality of work!”
