Last year we bought a new home in Sidney and while the home was lovely, the yard was not what we wanted. We contacted a local, boutique landscaping firm called Pacific Ridge Landscapes Ltd. We were so pleased with the magic they created in our back yard. Out with the old, preserving a couple of heritage fruit trees, and in with the new soil, tiles, plants, irrigation, lighting and so much more. They truly worked in partnership with us from concept to design to implementation. They ‘got us’ so well.As a matter of fact, we loved the backyard so much, we asked them to turn our front yard into another masterpiece. And WOW, it is even more than we dreamed possible. The design was customized to build on and continue the backyard, with additional elements that tied into the house itself, including gorgeous lighted arbors.And as if this wasn’t enough, being travellers, we asked if they would be willing to design a program to do vacation checks for us (as the team is already there supporting the maintenance of our outdoors) and they said yes! So inside and outside are covered.We can’t speak more highly of the dream team of Katie, Merle and all the team members we’ve dealt with both in the office and the team doing our yard. The crew were so amazing, helpful, polite, answered all our questions and were very respectful of our wishes and our property, we trusted them 100%. They were all very professional, prompt, creative, easy to work with and the owners even have a Havinese, like we do.. it just doesn’t get any better than that, right!?They truly live their brand “We work. You relax”.Laurie and Ken
Pacific Ridge Landscapes recently completed for us a redesign and installation of our small seaside garden and patio. We liked the design Merle and Katie prepared, and it was amazing to watch their young crew bring it to life. Jen, Karys, Ryan and Cait worked as an efficient and amiable team.Everyone stayed in touch with us throughout the project, frequently soliciting our input and patiently responding to our questions. We were thrilled with the results -- a porcelain tile patio, a garden with balanced and contrasting colors, textures and heights, an invisible irrigation system, a pathway winding through the plantings, and accent lighting.We highly recommend Pacific Ridge Landscapes and would certainly work with them again.
We were extremely pleased with Pacific Ridge Landscapes and the work they did to transform our little yard into a garden paradise. They were super responsive, extremely attentive and worked within our budget without issue. Their team worked with us to turn our vision into reality with expertise and professionalism, and their field crew was extremely tidy and friendly. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking to update their space whether it's a small project or something on a larger scale. I would definitely work with them again, and look forward to seeing the crew around our little town. Not only are we extremely pleased with the outcome, but our neighbors cannot stop complimenting how wonderful things look- the transformation has added even more charm to our small corner of Sidney!
We recommend Pacific Ridge Landscaping very strongly.We have worked with both thteir exterior construction and garden maintenance sides and have been very pleased with the results and with our working relationship with them. Our new patio is now two years old and is a great success. It makes a real difference to us to know that they are looking after our garden as well. Our maintenance contract is thorough and clear while providing flexibility to respond to changing conditions through the year. Merle and Katie have been very professional while also being pleasant and personable to work with. They have been very sensitive to our particular needs and desires as well.
We hired Katie and Mearle to re-design and install a new front entry-way and driveway for our house, and we are very pleased with the results. Katie had a great vision for the project from the beginning, and Mearle, Jen and Sheena were awesome people to have working here. Their hard work was obvious, they were quiet and courteous, and they were always happy to say hello and have a chat about how the project was going. We won't hesitate to contact the team at Pacific Ridge for any work in the future, and look forward one day working with them again.
