I was referred to Michael at Riverwalk by a close friend who is one of the very best, high-end landscape contractors in Toronto. The reason for the referral was that my friend couldn’t accommodate our tight timeline to get the job completed.
Michael showed up on-time and prepared for our very first face-to-face meeting. The scope of work was to replace all walkways around the entire house and to construct a new stone patio in our backyard. Together we worked through the selection process of choosing the best stone for the job and the best color to match the house. He then explained in detail what he would do, and why. I found his pricing to be very competitive.
The job was scheduled and work began on the date promised. Their workmanship was meticulous and the jobsite was left in order at the end of each day. This was important both to me and my tenants. Most importantly, Michael was on-site every day, not only to work but to ensure that work was going according to plan. Often, the owner of the company gets the contact signed and never passes by to see how the project is progressing.
I own other properties and have had many experiences with different trades. When you find a trade that does excellent work (and many don’t) you guard them with your life. What I also like about Michael and his crew is that they’re good, honest people and are a pleasure to deal with. If something might not be his core competency, he’ll tell you straight up.
Over the years, I’ve worked with three other landscape companies. Michael’s company Riverwalk is now my landscape contractor of choice. I trust them and when you have trust, you don’t want to risk going elsewhere. I am currently working with them on Phase 2 of this project, and he’ll eventually be doing my own home. Lastly, I already have, and will continue without hesitation, recommending his company to homeowners looking for an excellent landscape contractor.

Thanks so much for the kind words Ken. Great clients make for great work. It was our pleasure and I'm looking forward to the next project!
