Recent reviews consistently mention prompt scheduling, on-time arrival, and clear communication from quote to payment. Homeowners note careful pruning, effective nematode treatments for grub issues, and thorough cleanups. Several comments point to capable problem-solving on drainage and concrete repair work at fair pricing. Overall tone highlights friendly, professional service and reliable follow-through.

Our yard was being destroyed by the crows who were going after the grubs in the ground. Clayton was able to get us in within the week to spray our yard with nematodes. He was super friendly when he arrived to our house, and kindly answered some other questions we had regarding our yard. He provides a detailed quote and final invoice which includes the information to pay via etransfer. He came recommended to us, and we will in turn recommend him to others.

Clayton did an amazing job bringing my very neglected trees and shrubs back to a reasonable size. Word of mouth through neighbors brought Fairytale my way and I didn't have to wait for weeks. Very happy with result and price. Great customer service as well.

“Fairytale Landscaping turned my Reno disaster into a dream front porch.”
I recently hired Fairytale Landscaping to repair and rebuild my front porch after a major Reno disaster, and I couldn’t be more grateful for their work.
About eight years ago, another company, based in Victoria, installed my cement patio and front entry stairs. Unfortunately, their work failed badly—within a few years the concrete cracked, the slab sank about six inches, and the stair literally dropped away from the entry. When I reached out to this company for help, they told me they no longer service Nanaimo, leaving me stranded with an unsafe, crumbling front porch.
That’s when Fairytale Landscaping came to the rescue. From the very beginning, the owner took the time to carefully assess the situation and explain what needed to be done to make the area structurally sound and safe again. Once demolition began, we discovered the original job hadn’t been built to code at all—styrofoam used under the stairs, missing rebar, soil instead of proper road base, and no compaction. To make matters worse, the sinking slab had caused dry rot to the house itself, which also needed repair.
Although this was devastating to discover (after spending thousands on the first job), Fairytale handled everything with professionalism, skill, and care. They rebuilt the porch correctly, repaired the underlying damage, and transformed the front of my home into a space that is not only safe and solid but also beautiful.
I truly felt taken care of throughout the process—the team was hardworking, efficient, and detail-oriented, and I always knew I was in good hands. I finally have the front porch I hoped for from the start, and I absolutely love it.
I will definitely be working with Fairytale Landscaping again on future projects, and I highly recommend them to anyone seeking quality craftsmanship and a company that truly stands behind its work.

Two absolute powerhouses came by, as punctually as could be, and transformed two overgrown back yards, and a massive front area in less than a day. I could not have, at my most peak fitness, have done what they managed if I had an entire week.

Professional. friendly, and understanding. I can't imagine two better landscapers for any job here on the island.

Clayton and Carlos came and help myself and my company with a special concrete issue and he was there on time and did a great job and I will and do recommend him to my customers.
Clayton is one of those people who thinks outside the box.
Terry's Renos and Repairs and FairyTale Landscape will look and fix and conquer any issue you have. Indoor or outdoor!
