L. Martin Garden Centre

Really enjoyed the work they did at my place, both Driveway and backyard access were done with care and taste. Rates were within what the market is asking. Mr Martin was always available to answer my calls and even during such busy season he was able to complete the work on time. Keep up the good work!

Delivery was quick and inexpensive compared to the other garden centres around town, but the stone dust I ordered was pretty poor compared to other garden centres. It was more like stone chips with no fines" (at all) in it. The result is something that doesn't compact as well as the more typical stone dust that does have lots of "fines" in it."

Louis Martin will initially appear friendly and reputable - THIS IS A RUSE. He employs many unskilled workers, and continuously yells at them... Basically you can expect repeated excuses for why no work is ever getting done on your project, and when it does, expect poor results. I have 20+ images of horrible finishes, but the rock with a drilled hole really took the cake!

We looked around kingston for someone to help us with our backyard patio and L. Martin’s Price was definitely the most competitive - You will not find anything cheaper at this quality. He uses high quality stone and has a really good team working to install. They did a phenomenal job as you can see in the images. The only thing to keep in mind is he gets very busy and takes on too much work and might delay your expected timing. of completion Took a while to get him started but once he started, things went well. After his team completed the install, we realized that there were things we wanted to change. L. Matin took it upon himself to make the changes until we were 100% satisfied with the job and did not charge us any extra. His quality of work is great and we have been loving our backyard! We will be using his services again this year to do more work in our front yard. Highly Recommend if you are in the area!

Last year L. Martin installed a 1000 sq ft front walkway with pavers. They made excellent suggestions for the design and their variety of potential pavers was very good. We are very happy with the final design and installation.

Hired L Martin to do work in our front and back yard. Came promptly to give the estimate and told me he’d be about 2 weeks before he could start. After many calls and texts his crew of 2 finally showed up a month late. The 2 people that actually did the work did an amazing job, took the time to find out exactly what we wanted. Neither work for him any longer. We gave a deposit up front and then a little more after the front was done. Finally got the back done and asked to get a path on the other side of the driveway. Was told the stone would be order and the job would get done. We paid the rest of the $ other than the tax assuming they’d be back. A total of $29,000!!! I stopped texting him in Nov. STILL NOT DONE and it’s now the end of June. I argued with Louis to get the money back the we had paid towards the path a couple weeks ago and hired the former employee to do it. The excuse was “I’m just late”. Perhaps a call back or a text to tell me what happening might be nice.My advice is to go elsewhere.

I recently had Mr. Martin's crew extend my walkway/drive way. The extension was completed utilizing a interlocking Flat stone which is very attractive.The work was completed by the agreed date and the quality of work was outstanding!The crew left the area very clean, and even laid down a bit of grass seed.All my neighbors praised the work!Thank you very much Louis Martin,P.S Maybe we can talk deck in the future.Darrel Colley

Excellent customer service Emma did a great job. Following up with my inquiries and price was fair. Highly recommend.

Great selection of stone and competitive prices. We looked all around Kingston to find the stone we wanted and could only find it here. Emma and Louis are great to deal with and try their best to ensure you're happy.

Louis was prompt, did a great job, returned all calls immediately and was a great communicator. The shed I got is very sturdy, attractive and exactly what was wanted and even better than I expected.
