Under The Sun Ecological Landscaping

Sal and his team have been doing a fantastic job on our front yard, and have rebuilt our deck at the back of the house, and rebuilt the retaining wall behind our pool. Sal has been very approachable and has worked hard to give us the transformation our property needed. And he has also been very sensitive about taking my medical needs into consideration when doing his work.

We wanted a privacy fence that was tall but not imposing . Sals idea of using cedar boards, of different widths and perfect spacing, created just that . Both my neighbour and I are thrilled . Sal was terrific to work with, some of his many attributes being :
Highly skilled & knowledgeable, precise & detailed , tidy and easy to collaborate with. I have worked with Sal on two more projects since building the privacy and have recommended to others without hesitation. Definitely will work with Sal again.

We are so pleased with Sal and crews recent work. He and his crew were punctual,polite and did an awesome job! Highly recommend using any of his services offered. We are hiring him and his team to do further work for us.

This is a few months late. So sorry Sal!
We had Sal and his crew do a large project in our yard. We are a fairly new build in Buckhorn with about an acre. Our yard had been a mud pit and with a steep slope. Sal did an amazing job. He is so creative and talented! From the beginning to the end the experience was a great one. Sal suggested pavers that are good quality, look fantastic and did not break the bank. We loved the design he suggested and we went with it. He is so talented and explains all and was always available for questions.
He actually suggested 3 different options that worked with our budget and could save us money. He put a beautiful patio in the yard and made stairs coming down our hill from the upper deck. He also levelled the other side of the yard as best he could with the slope we had, top soiled and used a great seed that was ecologically friendly that grows in sun and shade.
They worked so hard and in the timeline he stated.
He even followed up with us.
We honestly cannot express how happy we are. Our yard is beautiful.
When we were looking for a landscaper( we had never done this before) I was randomly calling people and he was the only person that answered. . We feel so lucky he answered. Just on the phone we liked him and then he came out to see us.
Despite all the positive things I have said about the project I can also say he is a wonderful, kind and hardworking person.
We highly recommend him.
You will not be disappointed!!

Sal was very professional and very informative , explained every step
that was required. He said the work would take a day and 1/2 and it was just under. He cleaned up everything even the roots from a huge tree that had to be removed. I will highly recommend this company &Sal

Amazing service. We needed 14 cedar trees to be planted along the fence in the backyard. The guys showed up on time, very pleasant to talk to, and really know their stuff. We are very happy with the whole experience and will hire them for any future jobs.

Before contacting Sal, I saw his work at a friend's 2 previous homes. I got his contact info years ago for that coveted day when I could finally deal with my backyard!

That time came in the Fall of 2018, Sal provided incredible animated illustrations of what my yard would look like. It seemed dreamish, especially since my tiny Toronto backyard seemed very hillbilly-esque. It was unusable and an eyesore. After a main floor renovation, I decided to have the final project completed. Sal is a great listener and a geniuinely kind soul. He came up a plan that was feasible and found ways to reduce costs to better fit my budget.

Sal first leveled the backyard, installed decking, hardscaping, fences, air conditioning box, new gate to the laneway and built in seating(with storage for gardening tools and too many soccer balls). Sal gave us a an additional living space. Thank you!

In 2008I bought a cute but neglected bungalow in Toronto. Since the initial complete main floor reno I have been improving a myriad of outdoor problems. I initially hired Sal to rebuild my back yard fences. He noticed my upper patio was migrating down a slope to the yard and needed a retaining wall, as did one side against the fence. I would never have known that and it made a huge difference. 

I recently had him replace my front walkway (which was much more work than expected) and build a deck and shed in my back yard. The walkway is very professionally done and will last even in a wet property such as mine where things tend to sink. As before, he was able to spot and offer solutions to issues I would never have thought of and we discussed various options for all the projects. He provides detailed and complete quotes for each project and is very efficient. Even with inevitable weather-related delays he kept me up to date with intended project dates and his crew managed to complete all the work in one week. He is easy to work with and communication is top notch. He also came up with a perfect solution to my crazy weed problem on the patio (now deck).

I can't wait for next spring when we will continue improving my yard and hopefully get some good planting suggestions. (Hint) Can't thank you enough Sal and crew!

I was recommended to Sal and his business by several people in my neighbourhood. After his first detailed consultation I decided to hire him. His planning, communication, project oversight and quality of the work were excellent. Out of every professional and trade I hired and worked with while building my new home over the course of nearly 2 years, Sal was the most honest and reliable. I will always recommend him and I plan on hiring him again for a phase 2 of our landscaping plan.

We had some drainage issues with water from our driveway collecting against our house causing some cracking. We had several different contractors offer up solutions with varying prices. Sal gave us options and outlined the cost. Out of all the quotes I got his was one of the most reasonable. His workmanship was great and he left the site afterwards clean without any debris. I could not be happier.

Thanks Sal
