Shrub removal, sod and planting bed preparation

Thank you Jay and crew. I am so very pleased with the work that was done to our front yard. I know this wasn't a huge job for your company but I appreciate that the work was done when it was promised to be done. The end result is perfect and the price was very fair. When I first met Jay, he was also collecting for the local food bank which impressed me - a company that gives back to the community. If I could rate Green Side Up higher than a 10 I would!

Spring Clean Up

Both professional and friendly Green Side Up did an amazing job.
There was great communication with Jay and the two guys on the job worked a long hard day. The work was complete and well done. That same evening Jay appeared to have a look at their work. Great follow up. I recommend Green Side Up and am using them for fertilizing this summer and for our fall clean up.

Landscaping Improvement

It can be challenging to find a company that will complete a smaller job. We had a fir tree that had pavers surrounding it which needed to be removed. We simply wanted to have some mulch around the tree with a couple of decorative large armour stone and river rock. Too much heavy lifting for us and so many companies will only do the bigger jobs. Green Side Up web site states no job is too small, so we called them and so glad we did. Jay is very easy to work with, I sent along a few pictures and description of what needed to be done and Jay was able to quickly provide a quote and date to do the job. Jay is also very collaborative ensuring we were engaged in key decisions for this project. He and and his team arrived on time and did a great job at a very fair price. We would definitely use Jay again.

Property Maintenance

I have been doing my own garden work over the past 25 years and finally decided to look for a landscaping company to do the work for me. I read the reviews for Green Side Up Property Maintenance, Landscape Design & Build and was impressed with all the positive reviews. I met Jay, who I found to be very positive, personable and accommodating. He bent over backwards to make sure that all the work I requested was done completely to my satisfaction and was very open to my feedback - good and bad. Since he takes a proactive approach to his business, I feel very comfortable using his services again in the future because I know that he will address all my concerns promptly and to my satisfaction.

Lawn Service

I have nothing but good things to say about Jay and his crew for taking care of my lawn last year. Jay dropped by the next day after I sent him a e-mail for a quote. My lawn was in bad condition, but they helped me revived it and I even got complements from people passing by my house. You can't go wrong with Jay and company if you want to find a professional property maintenance and landscaping.

Lawn mowing & fertilizer treatments

Jay and his company did such a wonderful job last summer with my mom's lawn that I couldn't wait to sign up for another season. In addition to being super friendly and reliable, he also provided helpful suggestions that were mindful of our budget. I would have signed up for snow plowing services with Jay as well, but unfortunately they weren't available for residential properties in Newmarket.

Snow Plow

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.

Last year as a new resident to Aurora, I hired Green Side Up in the winter to do my snow Plowing, which I was very happy with. Jay always kept me informed via email when we were going to receive snow, and also articulated their plan to me via email. They consistently stuck to their plan and provided quality work!

In February Jay send out an email in regards to Green Side Up's 2nd Annual Easter Food Drive with The Aurora Food Pantry as the charity. Their food drive was also part of a raffle. When you donate food or a cash donation Green Side Up would give raffle tickets. The raffle was for one full year of property maintenance at no charge up to a value of $2,500, and the goal was to raise 4,400lbs of food.

Well I was the lucky winner and I have had Jay's team looking after my property since. I have been very happy with their performance. I would highly recommend Green Side Up. They do what they say they are going to do and they also give back to the community.

We couldn't do our Easter Food Drive without all of our generous customers!

We are very happy with Green Side Up- they were very patient and accommodating even as we continually expanded the scope of work (however, this was the case because we were very pleased with the work being complete). We would hire them again, and would recommend to our family and friends.
