Back 40 Landscaping

From the moment Back40 started my perimeter drainage and retaining wall project, I could see Sam and Victor's dedication. They arrived early and stayed late; one day I came home and Victor was still filling Allen Blocks at 19:00 on a Friday because he wanted to finish the first row (now, that is commitment!).Despite the endless water and excavation, Sam continued to strive to find the solution when many would have given up. I found comfort knowing that he would continue to explore his options until he found a solution he had confidence in.Back40 has transformed my backyard into an oasis for years to come. They will definitely be back to attack the front retaining walls once I have restocked the renovation fund ;-)

Sam is professional, friendly and reliable. We had a main waterline break and he responded quickly. His work is precise and he is respectful to the property leaving no trace of being there. We highly recommend Back 40 Landscaping if you are looking for a hard working professional who cares.

We have nothing but praise for the good people at Back40 Landscaping! From the start, they were prompt, professional, and polite.From the initial walk around meeting to the final handshakes, we felt respected, and our desires were clearly understood.Despite a few unpredictable hiccups, their price and timeline remained as agreed.We can say, without hesitation, that they will get our business in any future landscaping needs.

I needed help with some yard clean up, the job turned out to be bigger than we thought, but Sam still managed to get it done and looking about 100x better than it did before.Definitely recommend

Sam & his team did a REMARKABLE job on our sloped tiered backyard that was needing 2 new retaining walls and trying to make the slope not as steep. He treated our yard like it was his own, making sure the little details were included and not missed. He’s very knowledgeable and handled things professionally when we came across a mishap with some pipes. We are thrilled with the outcome of our new backyard and would recommend him and his crew to everybody. You are in great hands if you choose Back40!

Responsible, reliable, highly professional, friendly, 5-star customer service and quality product! From start to finish, Back40 was a such a great company to work with. Their communication was amazing and made sure to keep us in the loop every step of the way. A huge weight was lifted off my shoulders after hiring Back40 because I truly felt I could trust them- and man, did they deliver. They really went above and beyond, we’re so friendly and lovely, and would hire them again in a heartbeat. Highly recommend to everyone and anyone looking for high quality service and product. Trust me, you will not be disappointed!

Exceptional service. On-time, reliable, and stress free.Sam and his team did a wonderful job which involved grading and soil removal as required by the City. Sam coordinated with the engineers and other professionals to ensure the best outcomes.

I am very happy with the experience and the final product of our project with Back40 Landscaping. My project included a two-tier Allen Block retaining wall, large interlocking brick patio, walkways, and driveway. All looks amazing! Sam and Andrew were efficient, skillful, and made sure to 'do it right'. They built to, or exceeded, Code with everything they built and they were very thoughtful of the workplace. They were careful of where they staged their equipment and materials to minimize impact for myself and my neighbours. After every shift, they cleaned up behind themselves going so far as to sweep the street if needed. Very impressed and can't recommend them enough!

Syd and I hired Sam and his crew to replace a failed railway retaining wall. My husband Syd is a retired landscaper and has built hundreds of Allan Block walls. Sam and his crew were precise and efficient. They exceeded our expectations!

I could not imagine a better experience. Consistently prompt, amazing communication, impeccable work…. But most importantly their customer service was absolutely incredible. Everyone on site was approachable, friendly and knowledgeable. They happily took a few minutes to talk about their machines with a very interested 3 year old who came to visit and waved to him from the window as they drove past. They sourced the most beautiful trees for the yard and built a retaining wall for us. Sam openly communicated with the guys that were putting in our chain link and got everything set up for them. And he gave our neighbours daily reports on what was done/what to expect. Everything was taken care of down to the last detail - things like sweeping our driveway and street at the end of every work day. (We don’t have any photos of the retaining wall as our neighbours are the one who get to enjoy the absolutely perfect wall.) And Sam delivered our massive pile of dirt for our soon to be garden - which has been the greatest gift to the youngest in the house. This yard was horrible when we moved in - massive ankle breaking holes dug all over, sand patches, fences that were falling down, horrible patchy lawn that stunk. Sam and Natasha and the team have turned it into something that Nonna Guja and all her grandkids (and myself and her oldest granddaughter who live with her) will enjoy for years to come. We can not thank them enough or recommend them enough. They have built a place where so many lasting memories will be made.
