Report
We have had two projects completed by Tim Meijs and Gardens of Prestige. First was interlocking Permacon concrete slabs sidewalks and front patio. The second was hard servicing of the driveway also with Permacon interlock. We are completely satisfied with the work on both projects and have received several compliments on the work. Devon and his crew did both projects and were always friendly, courteous and willing to answer questions and to respond to any concerns and to offer suggestions based on their experience. They were meticulous in the preparation, compacting, laying and cutting of the stones

Fairly ok work, maybe worth 3.5 stars but a bit of a shady feel to how they bill for materials and if you dare question the work, the owner just blames anything and everything else without even coming our to verify. Having worked in the industry, I likely caught more than some others who would rate them higher. I had just broken my leg before they started and was pretty loopy or I would have been on them a lot more. Wrong supports and no stone put in under deck they were to level. Didn't pack the earth at all and it all washed away around their work. No drainage put in behind the wall, in fact

Tim and his crew did a very large project for us including 2 stone patios with multiple steps, a firepit and landscaping over an acre of property on the lake. It his turned out to be spectacular - we have had many comments from neighbors passing by. Tim and his crew were a delight to work with - very professional, understanding and accomadating. I would recommend them to anyone who values a quality job.

This company did our back yard 5 years ago and it still looks amazing. The guy we dealt with was Tim super good guy. We never knew it was such a good job until we were noticing a few of our neighbours landscaping. We had two different contractors. Lets just say ours is still looking good. I wanted to give this company the credit they deserve. Thank you and I hope that they are very successful !!!! Thanks so much

We are so pleased with the work that was done by Gardens of Prestige at our home. We had heard so many things about this company which is why we chose them. The crew that did the work were extremely professional, pleasant and hard working. Jennifer and her crew were truly amazing and courteous, whether it be hooking up the sprinklers for us or moving materials out of the way so we had a clear path to get to our door. We cannot say enough good things about them.
Gardens of Prestige remained on schedule and stayed within our budget. We now understand why they have a terrific reputation.
