Greenway Landscaping

In early 2008, we experienced basement flooding due to silt and ground water coming up through our basement floor drain during heavy rains and spring melts. In 2013 a basement sump pump was installed, connected to the outside weeping tiles to contain the silt and water so we could reach down into the pit to remove silt, necessitating continuous monitoring during heavy rain and spring melts. Two weeks ago, Jeff Myers, General Manager from Greenway Landscaping came to assess our property and grading issues to try to mitigate the amount of water and silt coming into the sump pit, handle runoff from the neighbour's property and reduce overflow from the roof eaves troughs. Jeff's suggestion was to put in a high quality PVC perforated pipe in a French drain leading to the front of the property, and tying in the eaves troughs with a solid pipe in the same trench. The downspout attachments have a leaf guard, venting and cleanout capability. If the system becomes overloaded, a pop-up emitter releases water within a stone bed at the front of the house. Jeff, Todd and Jesse's friendly and approachable communication skills, experience and knowledge alleviated my anxiety immediately and I felt I could trust them to do everything possible to try to reduce the amount of water and silt coming into our sump pit. They listened to my concerns and came up with solutions during the entire project and stayed within our budget. Jeff plans to visit during a heavy rainfall and/or spring melt to see how the system is working. Thank you everyone, including Clare Webb, Office Manager & Landscape Designer. A pleasure to work with you all!

After experiencing some drainage issues on our property, we reached out to Greenway for their expert advice and suggestions. We were immediately impressed by their professionalism, which led us to expand the scope of the project to include a full re-landscaping of both our front and back yards. Ryan and Claire were fantastic throughout the planning process, offering creative ideas and putting together a design we absolutely loved. Jeff and his team carried out the work over a couple of weeks, demonstrating exceptional dedication and attention to detail. They were responsive to our input as the project evolved, and the final result exceeded our expectations. We’re thrilled with how everything turned out and would highly recommend Greenway to anyone in need of landscaping or drainage solutions.
