Assisted Review

An assisted review is collected by a contractor on behalf of the homeowner after their work is completed. The homeowner must confirm the text of the review and may make any changes she or he deems appropriate. The homeowner then assigns the contractor a review score out of 10. Assisted reviews receive the same scrutiny as other reviews and must follow our review guidelines.

Our Parkdale backyard was an unruly mess of concrete, overgrown weed-trees, broken glass from a previous tool shed, and uneven grassy patches so we called Sal and crew in to clear some space for our kids (2 & 5 years old) to safely play in. Under the Sun Ecological Landscaping built a gorgeous cedar fence to separate our yard from the neighbour's. Then they broke down the concrete and carried it out. Sal's knowledge of fauna & flora helped us determine which trees to keep and which were just garbage. We also designated an area for patio stones to entertain on. Within days the kids had a gorgeous sodded lawn to play soccer and tumble on. Running through the sprinkler and having friends over for BBQs became our summertime ritual. Sal's crew is professional, courteous and tidy. Sal is reliable, communicative and knowledgeable. Most importantly, he worked within our budget and understood our needs. Highly recommend.

Company Response

Thanks for this review Kim and Sean. Working for you guys is always fun... (It's not every day you get to work for a comedian! Sean is truly hilarious!)
The patio turned out to be straight forward, despite some minor adjustments like the drain we had to put in on the fly in order to get water flowing away from the house.
The lawn turned out to be more of a challenge thanks to the persistent raccoons rolling up the sod to dig for grubs. I'm glad it worked out in the long run, I know it took a lot of persistence and patience on your part, even after we put down the complete mesh barrier over top.
Thanks again for your repeated business over the years.
p.s. I'll never forget the sight of Sean in the backyard wearing a kilt and chopping down weed trees with an axe. Hilarious!
