RMF Landscape Construction Ltd.

We had been talking about completely overhauling our backyard for years. When we bought the house, the pool deck was old stamped concrete that had heaved & cracked. The lawn was uneven and half dead. We knew we wanted to do something, but weren't sure of what.

We had several landscapers come in to give us their thoughts and estimates. What we found with RMF Landscape Construction Ltd. was the most comprehensive conversation & estimate. While others "ball-parked" the job, RMF Landscape Construction Ltd. was very thorough with all line items including potential items that could exceed the original estimate based on decisions we would make during the project. So, they were not the lowest bid, but we felt they gave the most complete solution and we trusted them.

Both Dave & Pat were very helpful throughout the planning & design process, right through the actual completion of the project. They gave us great ideas we hadn't thought about, were very knowledgeable about what type of planting would suit us and the yard best and were able to navigate a scenario where not all of the products we wanted were available due to supply issues.

The project itself took longer than we wanted but that was mostly due to a shortage of laborers, meaning the crew was understaffed. However, the lead on the project, as well as Pat & Dave, we very responsive and provided us with constant communication. No renovation/landscape job ever goes perfectly or on the original timeline, we just appreciated being communicated with so we didn't feel in the dark as to what was happening. One of Pat & Dave made sure to stop by every day to check on progress and answer any of our questions, and they even got their hands dirty if they needed to, jumping in on parts of the project. They were also very supportive in managing the sub-trades in order to keep the project moving along as best they could. They also went above & beyond, heling us move in a hot tub, which was not part of the project scope. The support continues a year after the fact, with Pat checking in this spring to see how everything wintered and helping out with a few small things here & there.

Overall, we couldn't be happier. We ended up with exactly what we had envisioned for the project, with great tweaks that Pat & Dave suggested along the way. Now we are able to enjoy our backyard to it's fullest, as we had hoped when we started the project. Thanks very much Pat & Dave and the team at RMF Landscape Construction Ltd.!!

We're so happy we chose to work with RMF for our backyard project! Dave and Pat understood our vision and came up with a great plan for the space. They were communicative throughout the entire project and stayed on budget.

We were very happy with design for back deck and landscape work. Finished almost all of it by spring of 2018. It is now spring of 2020 and they still have not completed the work. We foolishly paid them in full before everything was done. Deck is composite but spacing of boards must not have been done correctly because within one year many of the boards were lifting. Nail pops all over the place. Glass in railings wasn’t installed correctly - pane fell out and broke. Still not replaced. Several stones around firepit have split and fallen apart. Still not repaired. What started out positive became very disappointing. Dave repeatedly would not follow through or return calls.

We are very happy with the landscaping in our front and backyard by RMF. Pat and Dave were great to work with and made suggestions for a design that we liked. They were professional and completed the project in a timely manner. We highly recommend their services.
