Green Thumb Landscaping

We are a condominium property that needed a fair bit of work. Although the original date was postponed due to our very rainy summer as the time approached we were kept apprised of our start date. The staff started on our retaining wall first and as time allowed worked on a cobble stone divider between grass and/or gravel around the property. The staff worked hard and were friendly with any owners who happened by. Tamara ( and her lead hand, Daniel) explained how the new retaining wall would be built and gave reasons for everything they did.

The second part of the job was the cobble stone divider and following this we had a large gravel area covering our parkade which was sliding away. The guys decided to build a dry "river bed" to hold the gravel bed in place and then levelled and topped up a gravel walk way along our fence line. All the work was done in a timely manner and a walk about the property finished the job. The guys cleaned up after themselves and left everything neat and tidy.

I would strongly recommend Green Thumb Landscaping to anyone who should ask.

The staff at Green Thumb Landscaping were already doing some work on our neighbors yard, so we asked if they could fit us in at the same time. They were very helpful in making the work happen in a timely manner. We weren't 100% sure what we wanted, but Tamara gave us some amazing suggestions, and our yard now gets compliments from everyone that visits.

Tamara and team did an excellent job with our home. She listened to our needs and completed the job on budget and in a timely manner. If we wanted anything changed, it was taken care of. We have gotten a lot of complements from our neighbors now that our yard is done. I would very much recommend them to anyone who asks.

Green thumb did a large retaining wall and patio for us in the backyard. We were very satisfied with the end product. They were easy to work with and quick to address any concerns we had throughout the process.
Tamara went over and above with helping us on ideas and materials for the rest of the landscaping in our yard that we did ourselves when she didn't have to.
I would definitely reccommend Green Thumb to anyone looking for a landscaper in the future.

Our front lawn and garden required more maintenance than what we had time to care for. We wanted something aesthetically pleasing, but needed something low maintenance. Tamara understood this dilemma.

She provided the necessary information to aid in our decisions, made some great, affordable suggestions, and asked questions to make sure she knew exactly what we wanted.

We didn't have to wait any time at all for the Green Thumb Landscaping team to resod our lawn, and entirely redo flower bed. We were impressed with their professionalism and turn around time when they did the work in the fall. Now that spring is here, and the plants we requested are coming in, our decision to hire Tamara is once again confirmed.

We highly recommend Green Thumb Landscaping for any residential landscaping job.

Tamara at green thumb is one of our favorite clients. She has a great passion for what she does and always takes the clients wants into consideration when designer their projects. We love working with her as each project is different and gives us an opportunity to see what she can accomplish. She is also very involved in the community and volunteers with multiple different organisations. It’s always a pleasure to see any one from Green Thumb walking through our gates.

We needed our front lawn graded, re-sodded and landscaped for low maintenance. Tamara and her crew were able to fit our job in before the end of the season and they really did a great job. They removed all of the old landscaping and installed the new in two long days. We're very happy with the results and looking forward to seeing it in the Spring.

I recently moved into a new home and became the owner of a large pile of dirt. I went away on vacation for a few weeks, and courtesy of Green Thumb Landscaping, I came back to an oasis. Tamara had completely transformed my lot and landscaped it beautifully with flagstone and flora. The speed, efficacy and quality of her work was truly remarkable, and I enjoyed her laid back approach to quoting. Many of her ideas were used in our ultimate landscape design, which she provided drawings and a detailed breakdown of beforehand. Overall my wife and I were ecstatic with the results.

As a realtor I can easily say that Tamara will be my go to referral partner for anyone who needs landscaping done. What she was able to accomplish in the little time it took was nothing short of amazing.

Our school had a garden area that had been envisioned and created by a wonderful teacher. Over time a greenhouse was added but the teacher retired and the space was not maintained to the same passionate level. The beloved teacher passed away quite unexpectedly which spurred a committee to renew the garden and dedicate it in her honour. We made a call to Green Thumb Landscaping. Tamara met with us, heard our story and helped create the most beautiful prayer garden space for us. Our students now have a garden space to spend in nature, right in an urban school setting. Tamara and her crew were so passionate about our project. They were diligent, caring, and went above and beyond our expectations. Tamara was amazing and garnered donations which allowed the project to become affordable. All of our staff highly recommend Green Thumb Landscaping!

Our project involved correcting the backyard drainage on a 16 year old property. This included building natural stone retaining walls and stairs, regrading the yard and installing weeping tile, gravel and sod. We were very happy with the work done by the Green Thumb Landscaping crew for the following reasons: 1. The quote Tamara provided was the most complete of the several we received and gave us comfort from the start that she had a good plan that would not run over budget. She did the work for the quoted price. 2. The quality of the finished product was excellent and looked even better than we had hoped for. 3. They met all their promised deadlines. 4. They maintained ongoing communication and asked for our preference whenever there were options. The crew even told me when they found that one of the large stone steps was slightly thinner than the rest and replaced it without being asked. This attention to detail and quality was appreciated. 5. Final cleanup was excellent, including sweeping and power washing the sidewalks and street.
