Integrated Design Associates

George Tan is a rare individual with a unique mix of skills and a passion for delivering beyond your expectations. Our backyard was nothing short of a disaster and we had all but given up hope on the possibility of spending any quality time outdoors. George met with us more than once to ensure we were all aligned on what we were looking for when we asked for a space that would allow us to relax and admire the beauty of a garden and as well as entertain. George brought to life our backyard with inspired, but practical design solutions for our family. He created a space that is equal parts “backyard bistro” and “lush landscape”. George’s commitment to delivering goes well beyond the design phase, he saw the project through from start to finish. He coordinated with the hardscape contractor Tomar construction, hand-picked all the plants, adjusted and augmented planting to suit the yard and worked tirelessly to plant every piece in our yard. The job site was kept in immaculate condition, his demeanour was always pleasant and his end work product is spectacular. George is a man of his word and exceeded expectations in transforming our backyard into a place we look forward to spending time with friends and family.

Our family needed a company that could see the "bigger picture" to master plan, design and over see/ manage the construction of a second unit home addition and future phases of landscape improvements. The home addition construction started in June 2018 and completed on time and on agreed budget by October 2018. We are very satisfied with the design and construction team. We look forward to the second phase of Landscape and entry drive courtyard improvements with Integrated Design Associates Landscape + Urban Design Inc.
