Evergreen Landscapes

Craig and team squeaked us in as the last job of the year. We knew our project would start late in the season, but it was worth waiting for. We couldn't be happier with our yard! Roger (site supervisor) and his crew worked hard long days, and never left a mess. Roger helped guide us and provided the bridge between design and implementation, giving us the hand holding we needed. His whole team was top notch and each had their rolls that they excelled at. Hiring Evergreen you will feel confidence in the execution and you will end up getting more beautiful then you would have thought possible. Craig and team bring experience. Case and point. We had the wrong stones were ordered and delivered, about a dozen skids. We had the correct stones located and delivered within 2 hours. Unbelievable.When things go wrong or not as expected, because sometimes they do, that is what you will can expect from Craig and Roger.They weren't the least expensive, but we didn't want that. We wanted and paid for quality and that's what we got. We highly recommend them, and would hire them again without thinking twice about it!

The team at Evergreen Landscapes just completed our backyard as planned and we couldn't be happier with the results. Exactly what we wanted; a complete transformation! Roger and his crew were friendly, punctual and professional and did an amazing job on the grading, retaining wall, stone and paver installation, and planting of trees, garden and sod. From the initial meeting with Craig we appreciated his expertise on what our options were, and his level of detail when it came to the cost breakdown and designs. Overall we had an excellent experience with Evergreen Landscapes and can't wait to enjoy our new backyard this summer.

I can't say enough about this company!We hired Evergreen to rebuild our font patio, create a path beside the driveway and also level and repair the back patio stones and step. This was all in prep to eventually sell our house, little did we know we would want to sell so quickly! We found our dream home away from the city and bought it right after we had hired this work. Craig was immediately so helpful in finding ways to get the work done faster as well as suggesting we didn't have to do as much work as originally booked- we ended up excluding the path beside the driveway which saved us time and money. All in order to help us get the house on the market ASAP. He made it all work AND his crew did an amazing job!So grateful for your caring professionalism, the house looked amazing and we did very well with the sale, no doubt the curb appeal had something to do with it!Thank you!Mollie and Glenn

We were referred to Evergreen Landscaping by two of our neighbours, one of which had a complex deck built into a ravine. We have a large backyard that backs onto the same ravine and had been advised that our dream backyard may require conservation considerations. Since our neighbours expressed confidence in Evergreen’s ability to navigate such issues and loved their completed yard, we called Craig.Craig came to our home to discuss our vision and our budget. He patiently waited a year for us to reconcile the two and came back with Al to discuss our idea of a modern design. When the scope of our dream still exceeded our pocketbook, Craig and his team happily worked with us through a few incarnations, including revised 3-D colour drawings, until we were satisfied. Al’s renderings even included specific plantings throughout the yard that would complete the look. This level of detail helped us visualize and make more informed design and cost decisions.They indulged our desire for clean, straight lines and made suggestions of what products would best fulfill our concept. In addition to product catalogues, Craig recommended suppliers to visit and even brought a stone sample unique to our job! The stone was from a quarry in the Kawarthas and could be cut in large blocks to satisfy both our look and our retaining needs. Fortunately, the plan allowed us to do the work without having to work with the Conservation Authority and incur any additional time and costs. Our design was coming together and we were excited to get started!The crew arrived on the date promised with Roger at the lead. Beneath his laid back demeanor is a man who knows his business! He was very accommodating when the inevitable additions were asked for and nothing was ever a problem. Vanessa and Craig checked in regularly, ensuring our satisfaction with the progress, and kept us informed of the schedule. Even while we travelled for a few days, the crew worked diligently in our absence. They were respectful of us and our neighbours and always kept a tidy work site at the end of the day. Our project was completed in the time line promised and we couldn’t be happier!We had one minor issue a year following completion where a patio slab had sunk down a few inches. Craig assessed the problem and had it repaired at no cost to us. It is clear that he stands by the design and the work of his team.From start to finish, we felt comfortable with Craig and his team. They were enthusiastic about our project and cared about every detail as if it were their own. Craig’s integrity is what sold us not only on Evergreen but, other contractors recommended by Craig. If they were good enough for him, they had to be great! Our experience with those professionals and Evergreen has been stellar. Thanks Craig!We would highly recommend Craig and the Evergreen Landscaping team and look forward to working with them again on our next project!Terri & Mark DienstmannAldershot

We had the pleasure of working with Craig and his team for our backyard project. From our first phone call with Craig, he seemed very warm and extremely knowledgeable which really put us at ease. He was very fast and responsive to inquiries, even when he was extremely busy.After our design was completed, Craig really kept the important pieces of our project at the forefront of his mind and went above and beyond to secure us beautiful 11-12ft emerald cedars for our privacy hedge during a time of challenging supply and inventory.After the job started, the crew were very friendly and professional. They had a clear plan of execution every day and were very efficient in using their time. They communicated with us daily and kept us updated of any issues or necessary changes. When issues came up (and they always do in projects like these), Craig and the crew were very open to having discussions in order to find solutions that worked for us. Everyone always remained respectful and exceeded our expectations. They showed good attention to detail and ensured we were happy with every step of the project. When the job was done, they cleaned everything up extremely well and ensured we were happy with the way everything turned out prior to heading on to their next job.The photos say it all! The yard looks absolutely stunning and we have had many compliments on their work already. It will undoubtedly be a backyard we will enjoy for many years to come.I have no hesitation in recommending Craig and his team to anyone who is need of a professional landscaping company.

We were very happy with the work that Craig and the Evergreen team did in our backyard, from design to build. And clean up (an attribute of Evergreen that was more appreciated after other contractors were on site). The bulk of our job was done in the fall and I was very pleased with how responsive Craig was to complete two things (fence cut-in & stone coping caulking) into the spring.We look forward to enjoying our yard with new stone work, retaining wall and turf patch for our dog for many years. Thanks to all at Evergreen Landscapes!

Evergreen completed a landscape job for my next door neighbours ... not only did they proceed to go up and down my driveway with their bobcat and leave a muddy mess (started the job in November???). but they removed our shrubs without our consent. I contacted them and they are of course saying it was complimentary. They are not taking accountability and the VANESSA STOCKHAM was unprofessional and hung up on me. She proceeded to tell me they don’t deal with property lines? Well then how do they know where to plant to? Below is the final result of how they completed the project with leaving me with something I never asked for them to touch.It is impossible to get through to the president as it is answering service that answers their calls. (And their workers are just as rude).

Craig and his team did a wonderful job with our front entrance way. I initially called him in the summer 2021 and he informed me that he was booking into 2022 but would still come and have a look and provide me with a quote. Craig was very professional and he made me feel comfortable with the decision to go ahead.I was very shocked when he contacted me in October saying that he would be able to complete the project that day. The crew showed up when he said they would. They were very professional and polite. They knew exactly what they were doing and didn't need any direction from me.There ended up being a little extra work that needed to be done. Craig did not charge me for the extra step that needed to be put in. He also donated some plants that were left over from a previous job.Overall, I am very happy with the service they provided and would highly recommend them.

There is not enough adjectives to describe how happy we are with the recent back yard renovation done by Craig and his team. if you are reading reviews then look no further than this company....you wont regret it.This was the second time we used Evergreen which already speaks for itself but there are some really tangible things which added value for us personally1. In the planning stages, Craig genuinely understood that we as homeowners didn't have landscaping knowledge (only some basic ideas of what we wanted) but he took his time over several no obligation meetings to share ideas and pictures until he was sure we were all 100% aligned.2. His team and crew are unbelievable. They are so courteous and considerate of use of machinery and diggers around the home that we actually received some compliments from neighbours about them stopping and shutting off the machines to let people pass when needed. Not only that but every single one of the team is genuinely enthusiastic to build something that's beautiful for the customer. We really felt they got a buzz off watching how much we loved the development each day.At the end of every single day they cleaned up and left our garden as tidy and useable as possible.3. Every day was an adventure! As we progressed with the build we were constantly coming up with ideas that might look better or be more efficient. If we thought of something we would speak to Roger the foreman and he would try things out for us to look at and decide. They would also come to us and make suggestions as they saw the picture come to life each day. Fundamentally we still came to exactly what we wanted but the attention to each additional detail means we got the wow factor" that we were looking for.4. The timing and co-ordination with other companies to do the sprinklers

This summer I had the pleasure of working with Craig and his team to get our front pathway re-done. Craig helped us with the design initially, also coordinating in the background with masons, driveway companies and the like... I had so many headaches with the driveway company in terms of timing e.t.c. but throughout the process Craig kept me up to date with changes that were put upon him due to the driveway folks...He was very professional throughout the process, as were his staff. While he may not be the cheapest out there, you get what you pay for in this life, and Craig was very fair and transparent with changes to the pricing and shaved off money from one area to compensate, where he could.Like I said, you get what you pay for... if you want top quality work at a reasonable price... call Craig! We have probably added the same amount in value on the house with the curb appeal... we are very happy... Thanks again Evergreen!!!
