Concrete patio removal, new deck and interlock patio

Groundscape Construction Inc. did a big job for us this past spring. Last year they came and removed our old deck very quickly. It was totally rotted so we had to wait until the spring to rebuild. First they came in and removed a large concrete patio. It took three painful days of removing this mess we had by hand. Access to our yard was almost impossible but Sal made it happen. The previous concrete job was a joke and every time we looked at it we cringed. The guys were very tired at the end of this but alas now the beautiful job was to come. Sal had a deck company called www.mysticksandstones.ca come in and the 4 fellows that put up the deck did a simply wonderful job. They each seemed to be specialists in a certain area and they really paid attention to the smallest details. The outcome was a deck to die for. After that came Sal's turn. We had been talking about this job since last fall and we knew we would be one of the first jobs this year. So much planning went into this. Sal keep coming up with design ideas and types of interlock we should use. He brought us catalogues, and samples to pour over, and that I did, most of the winter.
Everything seemed to run like clockwork. Sal is an amazing organizer. I watched from beginning to the end the way he handled his team. A great company is only as good as its leader and that is definetly what Sal is. (I guess he leared what hard work was from his Dad Charlie)
This type of work is very heavy and Sal's team were here on time everyday, worked hard all day and cleaned up what they could before leaving each day. They did not stop until the work was done. The team seemed to be enjoying the work for the most part, laughing and joking around while they worked. When they all left on the last day, I was sad they would not be back again but that is OK, as now we have a most amazing staircase and patio and one kickass deck up above. Many of the neighbours have stopped by and said they were very impressed. It is truly beautiful. Now I have to get busy and replant some of the plants that were moved in order to do the work. I love to do that so I did not have Sal do this part. I am sure we will be busy with that for the rest of this summer.
The back will now be know as party central.
Thank you Sal for all the hard work, all the planning, and friendship we have made. Such a pleasure.

Thank you so much for the wonderful detailed review Shelagh.

We had such a great experience working with you & Chris on your beautiful backyard retreat. Your project was a challenge but the results are absolutely stunning.

You now have so many different seating areas with unique elements throughout your backyard for you and your family to enjoy. I hope you truly enjoy your new backyard oasis!

Interlock & Pool Surround

After having a pool installed in October 2015 we immediately began our search for a contractor to complete an interlock patio and pool surround. Upon checking reviews we were captivated with the outstanding reviews for Groundscape Construction Inc. and contacted them to quote on our project. We were immediately impressed with the professionalism and knowledge of Sal in our first meeting. From the start to the completion of the project the entire crew were hard working and respectful to us and our property. They treated our project as they would their own property with outstanding attention to detail and truly pouring their hearts into the project to deliver an amazing backyard retreat. The communication with Sal and his team at Groundscape was excellent. We are so pleased with the end results and so thankful that we contracted with Groundscape for this project. We have no hesitation in recommending Sal and his team at Groundscape and would definitely contact them for any of our future projects.

Thank you for the great review Neil. Although this project was a challenge, we truly enjoyed working at your home. The new interlock stone driveway, front walkway, backyard patio & backyard walkways looks incredible. The new fence gave your backyard that privacy needed. Once we install all of the plants this season you will be amazed at the finished product.

Stone driveway, walkways, steps and retaining wall

We did a lot of research before choosing this company. We watched them working on our street and were very impressed with what we saw and with the superlative recommendations of our neighbours. From designing our project, to helping us select the right stone, to meticulously doing the preparatory work, to the careful laying of each stone, Sal and his father, Charlie were there with us each step along the way. They are excellent craftsmen who truly take pride in their work. The quality of their work is outstanding and it was a real pleasure for us to work with such polite and respectful professionals. With total confidence we highly recommend Sal and his team.

Installed Interlock Stone Patio and Walkway

Fantastic! Sal took the time to explain all our options before beginning the project. Quoted only on the work needed and delivered on time/on budget. We are extremely happy with the work Sal and his crew did. They were very thorough - telling us about other issues that needed to be resolved before they could complete the job. Honest and trustworthy, and knowledgeable about our needs. Kept the site clean, and delivered exceptional quality work. They went out of their way to make sure we were extremely happy with the final results...and we definitely are. We had visitors comment on what a nice job they did. We completely trust them and would hire them again in a heart beat. Highly recommended!

Flagstone, walkway, landscaping

We can't be happier with the work Sal and his guys, Charles and Sean, did for us. We had quite the mess in the backyard that needed major clean up. Sal came by, took the time to understand what we wanted and made his suggestions based on that. Much of the overgrown plants and flowers were taken out, as we wanted, laid sod and did a nice stone edge along the current flagstone. We were so happy with the result, Sal and crew gave us the backyard we wanted.

A few weeks later they came back and did a flagstone walkway with stone steps along the side of the house. We are just as happy with the result, it is just beautiful!

Sal and his crew were always prompt, very professional, we felt comfortable asking questions along the way, which they seemed happy to answer. Sal communicated any issues that came up with solutions right away. Would highly recommend to anyone in need of any landscaping.

Thank you so much for the detailed review James. We had so much fun working with you on your landscape project. The results are amazing. Your backyard landscaping now looks very clean & elegant and you now have a great place to enjoy those beautiful summer days. The new interlock stone walkway & steps look fantastic and tie in perfectly with the interlock stone patio in the backyard.

Landscaping and deck renovation

Amazing. That has been the reaction of most of our neighbours and us too, after seeing the transformation of our backyard. We were in search of a good Landscaping company who would not only landscape our backyard but also address our lawn’s grading issue and add stairs to the existing deck. Sal Laverde of Groundscape Inc stood out from among all the contractors we met and who quoted for the project. When you love what you do for work, it shows in the results. Sal’s love and commitment to his work helped him deliver exactly what we wanted. We were kept updated at all times and the team members were polite, courteous and a pleasure to talk with. The passion and positive attitude of the Groundscape team helped them exceed our expectations. I would rate Sal and his team excellent in terms of knowledge, punctuality, attitude and work ethics. We would be recommending them to all our friends and family and hire them for all our future landscaping requirements.

Thank you so much for the wonderful review Manish & Pawan. It was such a pleasure working with you on this project. I am still amazed at how beautiful your backyard now looks. You have this amazing view of the lake and now you can enjoy it on your new interlock stone patio. The stone columns were a great touch to the deck and the landscaping/garden beds full of perennials & trees are stunning. We hope you truly enjoy it!
