Green Side Up Contracting

I was referred to Green Side Up from my daughter who has been using them year round for close to ten years. I was having issues with the company who was looking after our property and my husband and I thought it was time for a change! I met with Jay who is one of the owners in March of 2011 to discuss the upcoming coming spring and summer seasons.

Jay's demeanor was unlike anyone else's who I had met in this business. He was very courteous, seemed to be honest, asked lots of questions to understand my husband and I's expectations and concerns. He provided us with pricing that was fair. He did not provide me with the cheapest quote, nor the most expensive. Jay walked me through the quote in detail and explained that I would find companies that would charge much less, but they would likely not provide the quality of service that we deserved. He was right about this as we chose our last contractor on price and they did a terrible job.

Jay and his team started with a spring clean-up in April 2011, and started cutting the grass shortly after that. His business is a family business and his sister ended up cutting our grass on a weekly basis. She (Theresa) kept our property very well manicured, trimming all edges, and removing or blowing off all the excess grass clippings. Part of what we paid for included weekly garden clean-up and our front gardens have never looked so good!!

We continued to use Green Side Up through-out the summer. They also cleaned up all our the leafs off our property. We have 11 large maple trees on our property and when the crew was done cleaning up the leafs I'm not sure my husband could find a handful on our entire property. In fact both of our neighbours complimented us on this and I believe they have since retained Green Side Up.

We used Green Side Up for snow removal and never had any issues. We have also had them interlock our driveway which we, although delayed due to the weather, are extremely happy with.

Both my husband and I are very happy to provide Green Side Up with a very positive review.

And one last thing...Jay uses email to communicate with all of his clients to keep them informed on a variety of different subjects from Market Alerts to reminders to get your snow tires on to "Storm Alert" information.

I just had to write again regarding the :big: snow storm. We revieved about 40 cm of snow here and Jay (according to the truck, I think it was his sister) came to plow my place twice. The first time they cleared enough sidewalk for anyone to walk on and enough of our driveway that we could get in and out of. The second time they returned they did my entire property. When I signed my contract, Jay did explain this to me as he wanted to make sure that all of his clients could get a plow to get in and out for work. I am so thankful for this kind of service and that Jay thinks of all of his clients needs! Jobe Well done and very appreciated!!!
