Backyard patio

We are very happy with the work Kurt and his team did for our new backyard patio. Kurt took his time to understand what we were looking for and made helpful suggestions for the final design. The team was polite, friendly, and very efficient. The patio turned out great and we wouldnt hesitate to recommend them.

Front Entrance Refresh

Kurt supplied a design to refresh the entrance walkway on our 37 year old Jeffrey-built home. He made helpful suggestions during the quoting process, including the stone colour and the contrasting border. He is a reliable communicator. He and his team were very professional, arriving when they said they would and keeping us informed of their timeline. The workmanship was excellent. We are very happy with the result and feel it added value to our home. We highly recommend Kurt and the team from Distinctive Designs.

Landscaping project front and back yard

My front and back yard were in bad shape I needed a new lawn, front steps, walkway and back patio. Kurt and his team completed this job within the timeline he promised and slightly under budget. The team worked efficiently and diligently, very professional and polite. Kurt and his team are a pleasure to work with and the quality of the work is suburb. Amazing team and I love the yard they created! I highly recommend Kurt and his team.

Interlock driveway, front walk, pathway, garden, re-sod and automated sprinkler install.

We were looking for someone to help us update the exterior look of our home. The previous owners had a large front garden that occupied about half the yard that was difficult for us to maintain. There were issues with the garden stonework; the front steps leading to our front door had started to erode; and our asphalt driveway had sunk a good 4-5 inches from the garage entrance. Of all the contractors we spoke to Kurt really impressed us with his ideas and his knowledge. He was able to immediately suggest to us a concept for our home and speak to the different types of solutions we could seek. We asked a lot of questions in regard interlock driveways and brought forward many concerns a relative had after their driveway was done several years ago and Kurt was able to speak to all the questions and concerns. After accepting the quote Kurt provided us with a picture of the proposed work to the home and we were excited at the vision. We engaged Kurt to redo our driveway; garden; install a walkway to the backyard; re-sod the entire front yard; and install an automated sprinkler system. The work from start to finish only took a week to complete and Kurt's team did a fantastic job. The home looks completely different. It's modern, it's clean, it has a nice sized garden that my wife and I can maintain, and I can drive into my garage without any kind of bump up or down. The interlock driveway with its accent stones, and the way the driveway, walkway, side path and garden all tie in together looks phenomenal. The colour choices in the stone match our new siding making this 40 year old home look brand new. The new sod really makes the yard pop. We couldn't be happier with the result! We will definitely reach out to Kurt and his team when we are ready to revitalize our back yard. Thank you Kurt! We love how you've transformed our home!

Landscaping, new stairs

After just a short 4 years my front steps are rusted and the sidewalk has shifted. They obviously used zinc coats concrete anchors rather than stainless to secure new railings to the steps unload to me. Looks ugly now. Sidewalk needs to be lifted and done again already. Tried to make contact several times. Left msg. No return calls. Guess there is no guarantees for the work done and your in your own.

Update to the above review, I'm going to chalk this up to a communication issue. Kurt came back and after allot of work replaced the steps and walkway stones that were stained as well as fixed the walkway. Once again Kurt and his crew have done a great job and I would unreservedly recommend them. Thank you.

Walkway & Driveway

Kurt and his team did such a great job with my back patio 5 years ago, there was only 1 company I wanted to complete my walkway and drivewayand they did not disappoint! The team for the walkway and the team for the driveway were polite and respectful. Cleanup was fantastic as well! It was a pleasure to talk with all of them and work with Kurt.

Looking forward to the next project!

Backyard Overhaul

We needed a complete overhaul of the backyard, it was covered in gravel and poor quality fill. Kurt and his team came in, removed old decking and transformed the space into a beautiful lawn in just under 2 days. Everything was quick and efficient and Kurt was a pleasure to deal with.

Backyard Patio and Garden

Kurt and team did a fabulous job creating a Patio and fenced Garden area, in addition to laying a foundation for our future Greenhouse. They were polite, efficient and very thorough in the installation and clean up of our project. Additionally, the estimate provided was very accurate, and allowed for tweaking during installation. We just had the pleasure of enjoying a fire on our new Patio for New Year's Eve. Thanks Kurt and team, we look forward to working with you on our next project!
