Rebuilding verandah with composite

Had our two-tiered deck replaced with composite last year; so pleased, we had our side verandah done this year. Professional from start to finish. Jay is a pleasure to deal with, and Victor's carpentry skills are outstanding. Price was fair, the workmanship is superb and we couldn't be more pleased.

New Deck

I hired Green Side Up Contracting because of their great reviews on HomeStars. When I called the company, I spoke with Jay and he handled all of my questions and came to see my deck right away. Jay and I along with one of his associates Zach worked on what would be best for this house and I decided to go with Trex decking and glass railings. They put little lights on the deck which makes it look so pretty at night. The whole process was very positive and the final outcome was amazing.

Back yard fence

I couldn't be happier with the finished product. Jay is a great guy and super easy to talk to, he kept in contact while I was waiting and came when he said he was. They ripped out my old fence and installed the new one quicker than I expected and his crew did excellent work. Well done.

Backyard Makeover

We can’t thank Jay and his entire team at Green side Up Contracting for their hard work this past summer.

We reached out to Jay in May with a plan of doing a large project that included a new fence (Dan & Co.), deck (Chase & Co.), stone patio and new garden retaining wall (Rob & Co.). I’ll let the pictures below speak for themselves and the hard work everyone put into our backyard space.

Jay was with us every step of the way and was always available to help with our questions and guide us where needed, as well as to assist in keeping the projects moving along. Honest, hardworking, organized, and reliable is how I would describe these people. I’d also throw in “tidy”, as our neighbours came to us after to say how impressed they were with the daily cleanup work.

It was a joy to work with you all, and we actually kinda miss everyone! Haha:)

Thank you all again!!

Mark & Co.

Hi Mark

From the immediate connection we made on day one, we both knew we were a match!

Your positive energy, your interest and participation throughout the project, the trust you put into us, and the way you welcomed each and every crew member that participated in this build was truly amazing! We're very grateful to have awesome clients, and as I heard from several of the guys, multiple times, "Mark is the best!" THANK YOU for this Sir.

This was an awesome project to build and we couldn't be happier with the end results. The video can be found here: https://youtu.be/RW4QkYYC5i8

Thank you for your kind words and support, for your business, and again thank you very much for putting your trust into Green Side Up Contracting!!

Looking forward to phase two in 2021

Wishing you and your entire family all the very best my friend (15).

Jay

Replacement of a shared border fence

Our Condominium Corporation hired Green Side Up Contracting (Jay) to demolish and replace our 355 linear foot border fence shared with another Condo complex. Green Side was in constant contact before and during the project, including progress photos. There were challenges not initially seen in order to have the project done correctly that were immediately communicated and resolved. Extra costs needed to be added to the initial quote but the added expense by a third party for the rental of an h-vac truck was presented with a copy of the third party's invoice enclosed; no hidden fees. Our Corporation is very pleased with Green Side Up's services, this is our second time in 5 years that we have hired them to complete a project and we will definitely be calling them again for another project next summer. Thank you Green Side for a professional looking job, very well done.

Fencing

After several years without fences, I decided this is the year to get my backyard fenced. I did my online research and talked to several vendors. They are either unorganized or have a large minimum (only willing to do several houses in one project). Then, I found Green Side Up with a lot of great feedback from many happy customers so I went ahead for an online quote on their website (which is very easy to use and has lots of information by the way). After the online quote, I requested a visit and met with Jay from Green Side Up. Jay took his time to explain to me every aspect of the fencing project from the wood they use, the post installation, the style of fencing etc. He listened to my future plan of my backyard and suggested the style of fence (I went with "Friendly Neighbor"). After the meeting, I decide to go ahead with Green Side Up. I also got a chance to meet with Green Side Up's fence team manager Dan before starting my project. This gave me additional confidence with this company.

When the team is ready to work on my backyard and the materials are ready, Dan and his team arrived and finished my project on time (2 days). Throughout this time, Dan and his team have been very professional and were willing to answer any questions I have. They kept the area clean and I didn't have to worry about anything. Dan even helped fix one of my neighbors minor fence problem for free while he was on site!!

At the end, I am very happy with the finished product and the services. I highly recommend Green Side Up for any of your fence needs.

Fence

I was introduced to Jay at Green Side Up Contracting though a friend of mine who had them build him a deck several years ago. My friend found Green Side Up on HomeStars.

The fence calculator on their website was very helpful and accurate too. I was also impressed with all the details publicly shared on their website about how exactly the fence was going to built.

When shopping around, I asked other contractors if they could provide this level of detail and I just received comments about the build? which by the way drastically varied between contractors! Nobe of the other contractors were able to provide me with the level of detail that Green Side did.

I was also impressed with the 5 year warranty, the fact they didn’t ask for any deposit, or down payment where some of the other contractors I spoke to wanted 20 - 30% at singing and most only offered a 2 year warranty.

Paying for 100% of the project upon completion of the project really gave a sense of security!

There were some project delays due to the lumber shortage, however Jay always kept me in the loop and was very transparent.

Jay’s crew, lead by Daniel were polite, very informative and answered any questions I had. They’re clearly very talented tradesmen and kept the site very clean.

Definitely recommend this company. In fact we’re going to have them next year to do a new deck!

Fence replacement

A year ago, our neighbour behind replaced his fence, a portion of which was shared with us. At that time, we met the owner of Green Side Up, and had a sample of his work.
This year we needed to replace both side fences, and with our neighbours, arranged for him to come out and quote. He met with us, measured and reviewed the project, and returned a straightforward quote within 24 hours. After we approved, he scheduled our project.
Prior to starting work, he brought the project lead out to review the job, and gave us a planned timeframe. Due to COVID-19, there were material shortages, and inclement weather added to the challenges. Though the project took longer because of the above, we were kept informed, and the work was completed in reasonable time.
We’re happy with our new fence, and pleased with the quality of work. I recommend Green Side Up to anyone looking for fencing, either new or replacement.
