Cameron Leith

Typically I’m a DIY gardener but I knew I was creating a project larger than I could complete on my own when I started a graded garden stream-side in our backyard. And the pressure was on given we were hosting our son’s wedding in the fall. Worked with Linda Wideman to put together a beautiful garden and retaining wall. Spectacular results!

Eva Jaronski

From start to finish, we were very impressed with Linda, Josh, and their team at St. Jacob's Landscaping. We are very pleased at the amazing transformation of our pond to a gorgeous waterfall feature. Linda was very patient and knowledgeable in helping us choose a waterfall design that would best suit our backyard with berm. Josh and his team were professional and welcomed any questions we had during the process. Their creativity and attention to detail was impeccable.We were amazed with the transformation only taking 2 1/2 days! We highly recommend St. Jacob's Landscaping! Thank you so much Linda, Josh and your team. We love our new backyard oasis.

Jaclyn McMahon

We recently had our front walkway and gardens done by St. Jacobs Landscaping, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. From start to finish, the team was incredibly professional, efficient, and easy to communicate with. They were responsive to any questions or small changes we had along the way and always made us feel like our input was valued. Josh, Will, and Adam worked quickly without ever compromising on quality. The site was kept tidy and well-organized throughout the project, which we really appreciated. The quality of workmanship and materials exceeded our expectations, and the final result looks fantastic! What really stood out was their attention to detail and commitment to doing the job right. It’s clear they take pride in their work, and it shows. We’ve already received several compliments from neighbours on how quick, professional, and skilled the team was! We highly recommend St. Jacobs Landscaping to anyone looking for high-quality landscaping with beautiful results. Thank you for transforming our curb appeal — we absolutely love it!
