We had a last minute request in the fall to have Restivo Landscape & Construction install an interlocking brick patio. We weren’t sure if the weather would hold up long enough to give the guys the time they needed to get the project complete, but Dawson’s and his crew knocked it out of the park. They worked late hours and waited for the right weather to get the project finished when other contractors would have just carried on in sub par conditions so they could move on to the next project. There were no corners cut and Dawson took the time to explain what they were doing and why each step of the way. The end product looks fantastic, our only regret was not getting in touch with Restivo Landscape & Construction sooner. Next time myself or anyone on my family or friends has a landscaper project in mind, there no doubt who we will contact…Restivo Landscape & Construction.

Hired Dawson and the team to install some large armor stone retaining walls around the property. Firstly, Dawson was one of the first responses and quotes we got back. Their proposed start date was the date they started. In terms of execution, they are truly experts at their craft, navigating around a tight parameter and sloped terrain. Would use them again.

Dawson and Team came to complete some steps for our backyard. Dawson was quick to respond and was not shy to check the job out before even sending a quote. My parents were quite happy with the communications they received as they had contacted many other companies within the area and were simply asked for the measurements and then a quote was sent. Mind you the quotes the others were sending were quite unreasonable and they didn't even show what they were going to do. Dawson came to the house himself, took the measurements and introduced himself to my parents. They discussed a plan of action and showed examples of the type of stone to be used.
My parents were happy with him providing simply this service and knew that this is the company they wanted. Dawson provided a quote the follow day and it was quite reasonably priced!
Due to the current busy season, work wasn't able to start for a couple weeks. However, work was able to be completed within a day and the result is fantastic! Dawson even provided tips on ensuring its future longevity and the team ensured that the work area was cleaned afterwards, even the street!
Overall fantastic work and will be recommending him to others for future jobs!

Dawson and team just completed a 2 week project - Rear Patio, Shed Pad, Side Walkway and Front Steps for us in Burlington.

Initial quote was detailed and pricing was competitive. Decided to go with Restivo based on past projects and reviews (Take the time to review them on Instagram)

With Restivo, Dawson (Owner) is present and working on the job everyday. His attention to detail is remarkable. Dealing with a smaller company may be a risk for some but we could not be more happier with the choice that we made.

Dawson, Kayden and Bryce were an absolute pleasure to work with. Always respectful, polite and cheerful when answering any question that we had. They always consulted with us throughout the project to ensure we were happy with the progress.

The end product exceeded our expectations. Would absolutely recommend !
