FRONT YARD RENOVATION

After 24 years, we were long overdue to have our front yard redone. Researching the many landscaping companies in our area we decided to offer Pro-Landscaping the job. Angelo's precise quote detailed the work to be done. Keeping in mind our chaotic schedule, dates were confirmed and the job started exactly on time. It was true joy seeing Angelo and his team of David and Marcus work so well together on that first day. They started their work on time and tirelessly until late in the day. On day two, we were able to witness David providing Marcus valuable mentoring on how to complete a job over and above the norm. It's this attention to detail that makes All-Pro stand out from their competitors. Our job was completed in three days. We are completely satisfied with the end result!!! We have had many of our neighbours compliment the work that was done. Angelo and his team are true professionals and are a joy to work with. We enjoyed their sense of humour and work ethic. We had the added benefit of meeting Anne, Angelo's beautiful wife and Office Manager. Anne coordinates the work from her office and ensures paperwork and payments flow properly. We would heartily recommend Angelo and his team for your next landscaping project. Thanks for a job well done!!!

Terraced hillside/new driveway/front door patio and walkway

Angelo and his team were a total pleasure to work with. We had never done any formal landscaping projects before and received quotes from 3 different companies. We needed a new driveway, walkway, and front patio. We also have a steep hill at the side of the house and wanted it to be terraced. Although all 3 companies came in with similar quotes of cost, Angelo's quote was definitely the most comprehensive. He not only gave detailed breakdown of aspects of the work to be done, but also included drawings of the plans to scale. Angelo even met us at the stone supply company to select our colours.
The team were very courteous, hardworking and informative. We were consulted throughout if any slight changes had to be made to the original plan. Angelo was on site everyday of the project to oversee the work. We are now the talk of the neighbourhood!
We can't say enough about how happy we are with the results.

Walkway and Yard Renovation

Working with Angelo and his team was a great experience. Right from the get go Angelo was very professional; quick to respond to our initial inquiry, great ideas on putting our requirements into a great design and then providing a detailed quote. We started the project to install a new interlocking side walkway and we kept changing the plans ending up with additional front interlocking and steps walkway and front/backyard flower beds retaining walls. Angelo was very accommodating every step of the way offering professional advice. The quote was reasonable for the work required. The work started and ended as scheduled, and stood the test of time successfully - the project was delivered in the fall of 2021.
I would not hesitate to recommend All-Pro Landscaping & Carpentry.
Thank you Angelo and team!

Hardscaping transformation

Angelo and co did an incredible job on my property. I got them to add interlocking stone and larger walled garden beds to the front, back, and side of my house, and to give me a stone-clad porch with stone steps. Everything was done with painstaking attention to detail and quality, from the VERY detailed original quote and sketches to the actual workmanship. I cannot say enough how happy we are with the work they did. It's also worth noting All Pro is a high-communication company, in that they will keep you in the loop every step of the way, which I really appreciated. The people they hire have incredible work ethic and a wealth of experience, and it was an absolute joy to watch my property be transformed before my very eyes. Some before and after pictures are attached to my review.

Replacing driveway and path/steps to front porch

Experienced and professional company with endless patience, especially when it took us so long to choose the stone pavers! Transformed the appearance at the front of the house, especially the curving steps to the front door. Workers were tidy and courteous. Also gave excellent advice as to what was possible/desirable

Dear Michael, We certainly understand the need for our clients to feel confident in their material choices. Homeowners face what can feel like an overwhelming wealth of options. It’s an important investment in their home and certainly makes a big visual impact. I have 40 years of experience which clients can lean on to make their decision. I was very glad to meet with you and your wife at the outdoor product display area of my supplier, Arnts The Landscape Supplier, which carries a vast selection of precast concrete and natural stone products from multiple manufacturers and wholesale distributors. Printed catalogues and online images, and even samples, do not necessarily provide the best sense of the product. We always recommend that our clients confirm their choices with an in-person look at the physical product on display. Thank you for taking the time to share your ALL-PRO Landscaping experience with the HomeStars community. All the best, Angelo

Dear C & V, Thank you for reaching out to us again last year - 12 years after our initial project for you back in 2011. This backyard project was more extensive, involving a brand new patio and about 1000 square feet of sod. But I think the crowning feature are the 160 linear feet of Antico Stacker borders/walls for V’s beautiful gardens! Wishing you many happy hours of gardening and relaxing in your lovely backyard. We are grateful for your review! All the best, Angelo

Grading beside our house

In the fall of 2023 we needed a small grading job done beside our house to correct some erosion. We were worried about potential flooding and needed it done quick. We contacted All Pro Landscaping through homestars. We were very impressed with Angelos knowledge and professionalism. We hired them on the spot. Angelo and his team did not disappoint. The job was done promptly and they showed up exactly when they said they would. Clean up was beautiful. You wouldnt even have known they were there. Great job! I would have them back in a second and they will be my first call if I ever need any more work done at my house!

Dear Kelly, Although proper grading may not be glamorous, it certainly is essential! We were very glad to have been able to integrate your project into our schedule so that the problem could be resolved as expeditiously as possible for you and your neighbour. Thank you for your kind review! Looking forward to working with you again in the future. All the best, Angelo

New Deck and Backyard Better than we Imagined

We were looking to redo our deck but were having a hard time finding someone we could trust. One day we asked our neighbour who had built their deck, since it looked amazing year after year. Their deck was completed over 10 years ago by All Pro Landscaping and still looks beautiful. We were happy to be connected with Angelo from All Pro Landscaping, who unlike others we contacted, took the time to meet in-person and understand our needs. Safety and accessibility was a key concern for us but instead of having to come up with the solution ourselves, Angelo created just the right design.
With every stage of the build explained in detail, and quick response time for any of our questions, Angelo and his team made it easy for us. We are happy with the quality of the materials and workmanship. No shortcuts were taken. The end result, our deck and backyard is 100 times better than we imagined. Very pleased with the end-to-end experience with All Pro Landscaping & Carpentry, and we look forward to our next project together.

Dear S & E, We really enjoyed collaborating with you on your backyard project! We completed your neighbours’ deck and interlock walkway in April 2008 – 16 years ago – so appreciate your testament here to the durability and quality of our work over time! And now your backyard is an equally safe and beautiful environment for your new family to enjoy! While we were transforming your backyard, you were home with your newborn. I think it’s fair to say that the entire team felt that we were essentially helping you to prepare for baby’s first steps in the great outdoors and their toddler years and beyond! Wishing you all the best, Angelo

Backyard patio with wall and steps

This is the third time we have hired All-Pro Landscaping & Carpentry Ltd. to do work for us. We have been extremely happy every time. We just purchased a new house which did not have a backyard patio. Angelo and the team are great to work with. They clean up the area every day and are very professional. The patio looks fantastic and we cannot wait for nice weather next year so we can enjoy it more. We would highly recommend All-Pro Landscaping.

Dear Mary Theresa, After completely landscaping your home in 2019 and 2022, we thought there would be nothing left for you to do. Imagine our surprise when you contacted us in 2023 regarding a backyard patio for a new home you had just purchased! Since it wasn’t a quick closing period, we were able to schedule construction to begin the day you took possession. We were happy to join you for your 1-hour property visit during the closing period. This enabled us to take measurements, formulate a plan, choose your materials, quote on and refine the plan, purchase your chosen interlock pavers and wall/coping units and store them in our company staging yard so that we’d be ready to start on your closing day. Thank you so much for this review and the previous two reviews of our projects at your former home. ENJOY! All the best, Angelo

OVER THE PAST 39 YEARS . . .
Over the past 39 years, ALL-PRO Landscaping & Carpentry Ltd. has been designing and constructing beautiful, functional custom landscapes for more than a thousand clients who have entrusted Angelo Tersigni and his landscape construction team with their outdoor living spaces and home curb appeal.
...........
...........
ABOUT US . . .
FOUNDED IN 1985 BY NICOLA TERSIGNI AND 21-YEAR-OLD SON ANGELO, ALL-PRO Landscaping & Carpentry Ltd. specializes in working with clients to enhance the beauty and functionality of the landscape elements that complement and add to the enjoyment of their homes.
>> As sole owner and operator for the past 37 years, Angelo continues to honour the family values of integrity, diligence and quality that are at the very heart of ALL-PRO Landscaping & Carpentry Ltd.; the company he founded with his father 39 years ago. Those values have stood the test of time and continue to translate into satisfied clients. And we are honoured that ALL-PRO is now being called upon by the next generation of our client families to help them with their projects. Angelo personally oversees each project from start to finish.

About 80 to 90 PER CENT of the projects we complete each year originate from:
1) previous clients who come back to us with ideas for new projects, and
2) homeowners referred directly to us by our clients (this doesn’t include HomeStars leads).

On average, ALL-PRO Landscaping has the capacity to commit to approximately 20 to 40 CLIENT PROJECTS EACH YEAR (depending on the scope of the projects).
...........
...........
A FEW NOTES ABOUT QUOTATIONS . . .
Angelo personally handles quoting and sales. Hours of work are invested in a typical quotation. Rather than providing homeowners with a bulk dollar amount for the entire project, Angelo goes the extra mile by presenting a detailed, typed "contract specification sheet" that breaks the entire project into individual components that specify the materials/dimensions and pricing per component. The quote also specifies applicable warranty, HST and payment terms. Ultimately, for homeowners who choose to entrust their project to ALL-PRO Landscaping & Carpentry, this quotation document evolves into the signed client contract, usually after a number of refinements to align more closely with the client's aesthetic and budget.
> At times during the season, Angelo may temporarily suspend quoting so that he can focus exclusively on current projects and on quotations already in hand.
In this scenario, our office manager invites homeowners to circle back to us at a later date if they are unable to find another contractor with whom they wish to proceed. She also compiles a waiting list of those homeowners who wish to meet with Angelo when he begins quoting again.
...........
...........
IS ALL-PRO LANDSCAPING A GOOD FIT FOR YOUR PROJECT?
During the peak spring/summer period, we receive approximately 20 to 30 quotation requests PER WEEK, sometimes more.
Many of these we need to decline for a variety of reasons. For example, the project site is outside our core service area, or our schedule is already booked during the homeowners’ desired completion timeframe, or the project is not the kind of work we do.
When non-client homeowners reach out to ALL-PRO Landscaping to request a quotation, we are very grateful. We also respect their time and want to ensure that we are a good fit for their projects. So our office manager will ask a few questions before including their information on Angelo’s quotation request call-back spreadsheet . . .
.
Q1. WHERE ARE YOU LOCATED?
Each year, we must decline many quotation requests from homeowners located outside our service area.
Please refer to the “CORE SERVICE AREA” note, above.
.
Q2. DO YOU HAVE A PROJECT COMPLETION DEADLINE THAT YOU NEED TO MEET?
Some homeowners are working towards a particular project completion deadline such as the date of a backyard wedding or the arrival of visitors from overseas.
> This is important for us to know up front, because the homeowner's desired time frame may no longer be available on our schedule.
.
Q3. HOW MANY QUOTATIONS ARE YOU OBTAINING?
Conventional wisdom usually concurs that obtaining two or three quotations is prudent for homeowners who do not yet have an established relationship with a trusted contractor.
We respectfully decline to meet with homeowners who are obtaining more than three quotations.
.
Q4. WHAT KIND OF WORK WOULD YOU LIKE TO HAVE DONE?
We focus on "HARDSCAPE" construction projects, such as:
=> patios, walkways, steps, porches, garden walls, retaining walls, driveway borders/driveways constructed with precast concrete products and natural stone products.
=> decks constructed with pressure-treated, cedar and composite decking products.
For hardscape projects, we can also incorporate the following:
=> sod, mulch, triplemix, riverstone, ornamental rockery.
=> synthetic grass (usually Rymar Durablade 95 S-Shaped Synthetic Grass).
=> fence and gate structures, constructed with with cedar, pressure-treated or composite materials, as well as custom-ordered ornamental iron fencing from Medallion Fence.
We do NOT install the following:
=> Asphalt. We refer our clients to two trusted companies.
=> Stamped/patterned concrete.
=> Extensive plantings. While we can certainly do some planting of trees and shrubs as part of our hardscape projects, we refer our clients to trusted horticultural technician-designers for extensive garden design.
.
Q5. WHAT IS THE SCOPE OF YOUR PROJECT?
The HomeStars company PROFILE format includes a field for “PROJECT MINIMUM”.
> For prospective clients, we have set $5,000 as the minimum.
> For our previous clients, of course we are glad to come back to help with any landscape construction job, no matter how small.
> We appreciate that some homeowners may be unable to gauge whether or not their project would be above the $5,000 minimum threshold. Our office manager might be able to help with this when you describe the kind of work you would like to have done.
...........
...........
MEETING WITH ANGELO . . .
Angelo's QUOTATION REQUEST CALL-BACK LIST is updated by the office manager. On that spreadsheet, each request she enters is tracked by initial date of inquiry.
> CALL-BACK TIMEFRAME: During the construction season, Angelo strives to touch base with homeowners within two weeks of the date of their initial inquiry logged on the Quotation Request List (unless he had already placed a temporary hold on quoting before the inquiry was received).
> MEETING TIMEFRAME: During the construction season, Angelo does his best to integrate quotation meetings into his existing project work schedule. Client work always takes priority for him — something which prospective clients are sure to appreciate. During the offseason from approx. December through March, Angelo does quite a bit of quoting for the upcoming season, weather permitting.

During the peak season, Angelo combines jobsite work with sales, scheduling, purchasing, transportation, HR, client relations and other aspects of the business. He is at the jobsites daily. Multiple projects are usually under way. Clients deal with Angelo directly on anything pertaining to their projects. He manages the project schedule, calculates and places the orders for project materials and determines crew member assignments each day in consultation with his onsite Team leader, Dan. His Class AR driver's licence also enables him to minimize production disruptions by serving as the supply lifeline for the jobsites: delivering materials from manufacturers, wholesalers and retailers (paving stones, flagstone, wall systems, steps, boulders, rockery, gravel, screenings, lumber, fencing, topsoil, triplemix, sod, etc.), transporting equipment and materials between jobsites and ALL-PRO’s staging yard in north Ajax, and hauling project debris to transfer stations, for example. He integrates quotations into this schedule.

SERVICES
We specialize in gently curving walkway, patio and retaining wall footprints and terraced patios and semi-circular steps, all of which require intricate masonry cutting. ............................................. >>> We help our clients "make a dramatic entrance" with their homes’ curb appeal. We can, for example, transform a builders’ plain concrete front porch and threshold with beautiful square-cut flagstone or interlocking pavers. We can also soften the lines of an asphalt driveway by framing it with an arc-shaped "cape" of pavers that extends across the front of the garage and down the edges of the asphalt area; or, we can install pavers throughout the driveway area! Strategically placed garden bed walls can wonderfully complement the overall look. .................. >>> And we can wrap that aesthetic around the sides of the house to the backyard to create a beautiful, private outdoor living oasis for our clients to relax, entertain, and enjoy precious family moments. ................................................................................................................................................................................... CONCRETE PRODUCTS & NATURAL STONE PRODUCTS: We construct our clients’ hardscape elements with quality materials, both manufactured and natural. .................................................... >>> CONCRETE PRODUCTS such as pavers, slabs, wall systems, coping, steps, etc. are manufactured by (in alphabetical order): Best Way Stone (BWS), BROOKLIN, OAKS, PERMACON, TECHO-BLOC and UNILOCK. ............................................................................................................................. >>> NATURAL STONE PRODUCTS such as square-cut flagstone, coping, and steps are from a variety of sources. We also install Natural Limestone Armour Stone excavated by Kawartha Rock Quarry in Buckhorn/Trent Lakes, Ontario. ................................................................................................ >>> As part of larger projects, we install Washed River Rock and assorted rockery accents, as well as sod, mulch and triplemix from various sources. ..................................................................................................................................................................................... DECKS: Our clients can choose from cedar, pressure-treated lumber or TrexTM composite decking for their deck installations. For decks that are attached to the house, deck plans must be approved via Building Permit from the appropriate municipal jurisdiction building office. We can recommend a BCIN certified designer to our clients who have not already worked with one. As an alternative to a deck, clients can opt for a raised stone patio-terrace. ..................................................................................................................................................................................... For larger hardscape projects, we can also incorporate perimeter fencing and privacy screening into the project scope. We install cedar, pressure-treated lumber and composite fence materials, as well as custom-ordered ornamental iron fencing from Medallion Fence. We respectfully decline invitations to quote on fence-only projects. ..................................................................................................................................................................................... While not glamorous, grading and drainage are vital considerations in any landscape construction project. ..................................................................................................................................................................................... Exterior lighting can add drama and elegance, while aiding in easier navigation of your property after twilight. Any electrical connections, however, need to be installed by a licenced electrician hired by our clients. We can refer an electrician to those clients who do not already have one. ..................................................................................................................................................................................... SWIMMING POOLS: Different clients have different approaches to their pool areas. On the one hand, we design surrounding landscapes that enhance our clients’ enjoyment of their pool oases. On the other hand, we fill in pools no longer wanted by clients for a variety of reasons. .....................................................................................................................................................................................
