Property Maintenance

I have been using Green Side Up for property maintenance and highly recommend this company for your lawncare and snow removal needs. Jay, the owner, is very passionate about delivering exceptional customer service - he is always prompt to respond to calls and is a pleasure to deal with. He makes sure to communicate with his customers regularly, especially in the winter months with weather/storm updates. Grant and his crew have done an awesome job this summer with the grass maintenance and they always leave with the property looking clean and well manicured. In the fall, I needed the top of my spruce tree pruned but Grant exceeded my expectations by giving the tree a really good shaping overall! Last but not least, Jay gives back to the community by supporting the local food bank each year and has also responded to charitable and community causes, which is highly commendable. I have seen some of Green Side Up's great landscape construction work and will definitely consider them for a future patio project.

Hi Beejay,

Thank you for your positive feedback. Your loyalty over the past few years to GSU is greatly appreciated. Grants 'leading by example" style has clearly worn off on the crew he leads. The end results are clear.

Storage Shed - Design And Build

I contacted Green Side in June after being quite happy with work they did at our home in 2013. Jay was very responsive on initial contact. He came back to me within his committed time line of two weeks with a design, along with an estimate. Together we made some changes to what was proposed. I provided the go-ahead. I wasn't in a rush to have this done. The project was booked for the fall.

Fall came and I received a call to inform me of the proposed start date. They were slightly delayed do to the weather.

Green Side executed just as I knew they would. A deep foundation was dug. I was actually at work when this happened and Jay had sent me several pictures to show how deep they dug. Jay brought in his electrician who was brilliant, the carpentry work done by Jordan and team, was great and Grant did a fantastic job painting and finessing the final touches.

Slightly over budget, however I did make some last minutes changes which Jay was really quite accommodating (and patient!

Jackie!!!!

You are always a pleasure to work for. Thank you for always thinking about us and for the many referrals you've provide us with. If you have a chance it would be great if you could attach a few pictures of your new shed.

It turned out amazing!

Great Company, with Growth.

Just a quick note to say what a super job Greenside up did with our property management this year ! Green Fall clean up as well.Dependability and workmanship are never an issue. I love how the winter plowing plan is communicated effectively and in advance. This overall value is why we sign on every year.

Congrats again to the team for the Food drive within the Aurora community.

Landscaping and snow removal

I have been using Jay and his crews to do my landscaping maintenance and snow removal service. Jay is a honest and fun guy to work with. He and his crews have been very reliable. I got email updates on coming snow storms and their plans for cleaning up after. I appreciate his efforts. He also organized the Food Bank and customer Drive for the community which is great. I would recommend him to others for work to be done.

Good morning Philip. Too bad I that didn't end up meeting you. Thank you for your business and your review. If you decide that you would like a deck build, please let me know. Jordan's carpentry skills are superior.

Flagstone

The crew was fantastic! The stone that needed to be taken up was done very quickly! When problems arose, a solution was presented. When consultation was required the crew and Jay were very sure to engage my husband and I in any decisions. The stone design was well executed and it made our entry extremely attractive! We are very pleased with Greenside UP!!

Hi Sarah,

Thank you for you review. As I mentioned, we have shown the flagstone we laid at your home to several potential clients. Each client really liked the stone selection, the grouting and the overall end result.

Thank you again for your business and for your review

Back Yard Makeover

Jay and his group were asked to redo our backyard in a very small window due to seasonal weather concerns. Not only did Jay come through as promised but also within budget. Green Side Up is very professional and constantly kept my son and I up to date. Jay was very accommodating in making last minute changes happen. A pleasure to work with and will repeat doing business

Thank-you to both you and Keith. The apple doesn't fall from the tree and you were both an absolute pleasure to work for! This message was also echoed by the other contractors on site.

Mother Nature certainly worked in our favour! Jordan, myself and the team were very happy with transformation!

Please keep in touch!

450 Square Foot Parking Pad

Jay was courteous, professional and always kept me informed. His crew Jordan, Jamie and Cole did an outstanding job installing the new parking pad in my front yard. The craftsmanship is superb, they are smart, responsive and sensitive to the client’s wishes, a true pleasure to work with. The project was completed on time and the job came in right on budget. I would not hesitate to recommend Jay and his team to my family and friends.

Thank you very much Charlie. I'm sure this pad will make life a little easier for you and the other drivers in your home.

You could drive a Mac truck on that pad...it will never move!

Thank you very much for your business, along with your kind words.
