Dump truck driving down kinburn side road after the Pakenham parade with all of its decorations flying off down the road… even with another company pick up following it and watching it happen. Way to go
We worked with Shade Group all the way from planning and design to installation of a culvert to help access our back fields more easily. They helped us; acquire all the appropriate permits, address questions and concerns from us and from the local Conservation Authority, source materials, schedule and perform the installation. All the way along it was apparent that the end result and our satisfaction with it was the most important thing. Everyone we dealt with was professional, kind and considerate and we are very happy with the outcomes. Thanks team Shade!
Good communication and work done as described. Very friendly! Thanks again for the work!
Exceeded expectations. The response to my questions was very quick and they took the time to understand my project and requirements. When it came time to do the work, the job was done on time and on budget with no surprises. I would recommend them in a heart beat.
Very professional, quality work. Each job they've done has been a great experience. They are transparent, professional, provide excellent advice and do quality work.
Alan and Jason did a fabulous job on our driveway resurfacing! A big thank you to Monica for organizing everything and getting things scheduled and done so quickly. I would highly recommend the Shade Group to anyone looking to re-gravel their driveway! Bina
Had the pleasure of working with Monica on a grading plan for my renovation. Monica was quick to reply, professional and available to answer questions. I would happily recommend them for your grading plan.
We hired Alan to rehabilitate our gravel driveway and we are very happy with the result. Alan did a very thorough job and the driveway looks better than it ever has. Service was performed on time, with great attention to detail and even helpful tips for future maintenance. Highly recommended.
In early Spring 2021, I kicked off a project to erect a large MegaDome building on the farm. I received quotes for pad preparation, selected a contractor and then was ghosted by said contractor. Building had already be purchased, delivery date was set, and here I was, stuck without a contractor. Through word of mouth, I heard about Alan and his company. Am I ever glad I called him. Within a day of reaching out, Alan was onsite to review the details of what was needed. In less then 24 hours quote was in hand as promised. We agreed to move forward, and Alan and his team were here when promised, finished work ahead of schedule and stayed on budget. Thank you Alan, Monica and team for the prompt responses, quality of your work and timeliness. You know what is required for great customer service. I will certainly use you again in the future.

It was such a delight working with Alan and Monica over the last month or so. We had major issues with our grading and drainage, and were also interested in putting down a large patio. Monica helped draft a professional drainage plan incorporating our backyard design ideas. Alan and his team executed on that plan and was able to deliver it on schedule with high quality workmanship. Though it wasn’t part of the scope, Alan was super accommodating and even moved our patio stones for us to make our lives easier. Monica and Alan were available to answer any questions we had during the process and even provided useful tips so we can finish other aspects of the project. We would love to work with them again in the future! Thanks again, Anh and Dave
Honest, professional service with a personal touch, excellent communication, quality job well-done, Alan and his team have been wonderful from start to finish! Always felt heard, never felt pressured, rushed or condescended to, which has been an irritating issue with similar companies in the past. Highly recommend and will be working with them again in the very near future!
We had a complex back yard project with a lot of moving parts. The team understood what we were aiming for and helped improve our original plans. Communication was fantastic. The team was very flexible and accommodating which we really appreciated. The work was top notch and they had the heavy equipment required for the job. Absolutely would work with them again.

High quality job done. Quick, professional and easy to work with. I would definitely work with them again in the future and recommend them highly to friends and family.
We had an excellent experience working with this firm. Their quote for rehabilitating our driveway was very reasonable. The work was performed in a timely manner and we are very happy with our new driveway. Thanks Alan and Monica!
Heather was very easy to reach and responsive when booking a fall yard clean up. She was lovely and used her extensive knowledge to tame our unkempt gardens. Our flower beds have never looked better!
Our land is low lying with poor drainage in spots. Alan and Heather came to assess it. Their expertise was immediately apparent. They came up with a sensible, comprehensive plan including aspects we hadn't even thought of. They are easy to talk to and patient with questions (I had lots). They arrived on time and did the work thoroughly. They had all the right equipment for the job which made things go smoothly. They came back promptly when a bit of follow up was needed after heavy rain. We couldn't have asked for a better experience.
After a sudden water line break and an urgent need to remove 3' thick slab of concrete at my front steps in order to fix it, I didn't have a large window to work with. I contacted Alan to see what could be done. He was extremely accommodating and was able to give me a quote on the spot after I sent him a few photos via text message. He was able to squeeze me in between his other jobs on that same day! Alan and Heather showed up with the equipment, did the demolition and removed all the concrete within two hours with enough time to spare for a friendly conversation. I highly recommend!!
After my contractor for excavation fell through, I called ALHG and they were able to mobilize and complete my job on the same day. Thanks to Alan for the great work and fast response.
This was our second experience with ALHG. Our latest project involved excavation and compaction for interlock. As with our first project, everything was outstanding from A to Z. We have already booked ALHG for our next project (grading).
We recently hired ALHG to redo the landscaping for our front yard which involved bringing in roughly 300 yards of dirt. Alan was transparent about cost throughout the whole project, ensuring it was completed on time and on budget while maintaining a high quality of work. We are very happy with our new and improved front yard and will definitely be hiring ALHG for any future landscaping needs.
Top notch service and amazing delivery of quality Landscaping products!
We had a pool and backyard landscape job done and the last thing to complete was to remove the temporary gravel driveway/gravel in the ditch and put everything 'back to normal'. Alan promptly returned our inquiry, came out and gave us a quote. He was quick to respond, his quote was reasonable, and his work was great. He was professional and did what he said he was going to do (which from our previous experience doesn't always happen!). Highly recommend, we would use Alan again :)
Had an outstanding experience working with Alan and his crew who built a beach volleyball court in my backyard. I have been planning this project for a while and Alan really helped bring my dream to reality. This was a rather large job that involved excavating a 50 x 75 area, laying 6" of clear stone along with drainage pipes - then brought in over 250 tonnes of sand, yes, that is a lot of sand, 18 dump truck loads to be exact. Sand which Alan helped source and also hauled. They were on time, on budget, and did everything promised and more. Really can't say enough positive things about my experience, a job well done.
Alan and Heather did an amazing job on my backyard last year. They were extremely accommodating and flexible to fit my job in, which ended up being a lot bigger than expected. They were extremely punctual, responsive and hardworking, and I couldn't be happier with the end result. I have recommended their services to many friends. Thanks so much Heather and Alan!

Heather worked like a soldier getting everything we had agreed to and quoted on, done and done well. Lucky for me she is able to work me into her schedule for the spring cleanup and to rejuvenate my garden. I was so pleased with her work I recommended her to my neighbor.
My experience was exactly what I was hoping for. Helpful, friendly, flexible, solid work and a result that I was able to thoroughly enjoy all last summer.
Alan recently "refreshed" our decades old winding rural driveway. Not only are the nasty pot holes history, but it was a pleasant and painless experience. It involved edging, levelling, fresh gravel and rolling, and Alan did a thorough and professional job. We certainly would recommend ALHG.
Alan and Heather are great to work with. We have a lovely deck that we had built previously, but the rest of our backyard had overrun gardens and no functional space to relax. We sat down with both of them and explained what we felt we wanted done. The design they came up with cut down the size of our unruly gardens. They replaced the plants with more maintenance-free options. They also designed and installed the perfect private interlock area to relax and read a book. They are a very professional team with crews that clean up after themselves. Hoping to hire them to spruce up our front yard next!
We have had ALHG do a variety of projects for us. Always professional and knowledgeable about landscaping and excavation.
We hired Alan and Heather to do a few jobs around our property. It started out as an extensive cleanup of our garden beds which had been neglected by us and the previous owners. We also had them re-do a settled interlock walkway, and install a few lights in our backyard. Very happy with how it all turned out. We definitely plan on having them back again to keep our gardens and landscaping a bit more under control!
We kept putting off dealing with our out of control front garden and finally asked Heather and Alan to help get it in order - what a difference!!! Heather really knows her plants, and the two of them make a fabulous team to deal with anything you need for landscaping or repairs and renos. No hesitation to recommend Alan's Landscaping Heather's Gardens for any project you need around your home. The area Heather worked in was beautiful (and spotless!) when she left, and they both gave us some great ideas for sprucing up the curb appeal of our house.
