After a rocky start where emails were not getting thru (tech issues beyond our control) Greg and Team have lived up to their promises. Greg has been a wonderful person to work with on both the Maintenance and Landscaping sides. I highly recommend On The Island Landscaping to anyone looking for this kind of service.

We hired Greg at On The Island Landscaping to do weekly lawn maintenance for us this spring for 6 weeks while we were away. He did an excellent job and managed our lawn beautifully during the new growing season. The lawn was newly seeded in the fall and therefore a bit more sensitive this spring but Greg managed it with care and precision so that we are now off to a great start for the year. Thanks Greg.

I recently had a stroke and unable to make intended landscaping changes to our approximately 2- acre property. Greg undertook this task and did so in a professional and pleasant manner. He and his helpers spent a few days in our place pruning shrubs, redesigning raised vegetable beds, removing unsightly accumulations of branches, offering constructive suggestions and generally improving overall appearances. His work will make it much easier for us to make the changes we wish this gardening season. Thanks Greg and helpers. Bill and Chuntee

It has been a pleasure working with Greg over the past couple of years as he has been establishing and growing his operations. I have appreciated his follow up and his general reliability. He was also a godsend during the snowfall season, ensure you book him in advance for snow plow! Thanks, Greg!

When originally looking for landscapers on Van Island, most would not even answer messages. Summer or winter, Greg has been responsive and he always lets me know when he can work a job into the schedule -- gardening, irrigation, snowplowing, etc. When my mom was snowed in, he let me know when he could get the roadway accessible again, and he stuck to his schedule no matter how long his days were. Thanks to you and your team, Greg.

I recently hired On the Island Landscaping and I was blown away by their work. From the initial consultation to the final touches, Greg and his team were professional, and really listened to what I wanted. I was impressed by their attention to detail, and they transformed my yard into a beautiful oasis in a timely manner. They exceeded my expectations and I couldnt be happier with the end result!

January 22, 2024

Greg was pleasant when we first met but his quote on trimming my hedge was very high. I ve been paying about $500 - $650 for several years and Greg s quote was $2100. We ve since found a very experienced trimmer, very well-known in Cowichan, and his price is $600. Oddly too, my neighbour who met with us and wanted to pay for his side of the hedge and who also has a second hedge that he wanted trimmed by Greg never received a quote.

Dealing with On The Island Landscaping was great. Greg and his crew transformed our front yard to give it more curb appeal.

We had On the Island Landscaping overhaul 3 flower beds for us. They removed old plantings, edged a new shape for the beds, and brought in the many yards of top soil required to make them ready to plant. They were prompt, did exactly what they quoted on and when the work was all done cleaned up the area where the top soil had been dumped to leave everything clean. We were pleased with the service and work done and will definitely have them back to do further work for us.

I highly recommend this company. Greg did an awesome job at preparing our new garden area. He is a hard worker. Starting from scratch, he removed the sod, installed the fence posts (30 of them!) and dug/moved the soil as per our needs. All of this despite a ground that was challenging to work with (there was lots of rocks). He achieved exactly what we wanted! He always showed up on time and worked very long days. His quote was quite accurate and his pricing extremely fair. The quality of his work is excellent. We are very satisfied and would hire him back anytime. Thank you very much Greg!

Greg and his team were contracted to remove existing grass and replace with new sod. We found their willingness to work hard to finish the job in a professional manner to be A-1. The product supplied comes from the Island and appears to be in great shape. We are definitely looking forward to a new rear garden, and would happily and highly recommend Greg and his team!

Greg removed our old gravel and weeds up a pathway and replaced the old gravel with cart gravel and sprayed it to keep the weeds out. It looks just great now...neat and tidy! I am very pleased.

★★★★★

Had Greg do a general garden/lawn maintenance/tidy-up/de-weed, refresh a gravel area and do some trimming/pruning of hedges and a tree and are happy with everything. Greg works hard, is easy to communicate with and delivered what we were looking for. What else can you ask for?

Greg planted 24 Laurel hedges for us recently. He took the time and care to make sure they were perfectly lined up, spaced just right and each hole was had dug to perfection! I highly recommend using his company for any job no matter how big or small... thanks Greg!

I highly recommend this company. We requested pricing online for supply and planting of a Laurel hedge. Greg, the owner responded quickly, visited our property and made sure he understood our needs. He offered a number of options with clear pricing, which was all very reasonable, especially on the delivery and planting. He arrived at the time promised, did beautiful job, and left the site clean. The care and attention he demonstrated is exemplary and I hope you give him a try.

GREG is a very hard worker. He transplanted trees , cut hedges and reassembled my garden area (which was not a fun job) His pricing is extremely fair. He was fast and efficient. It was a breath of fresh air to finally hire someone who is honest and knows what they are doing. Would recommend him for any job you have, he seems to be a man of many trades..We will use him again 100 percent . THANKS GREG

After a few years of neglect, Greg came to our rescue, and transformed the overgrown weed/grass filled beds to lovely mulch covered areas of beauty. He was always there when he said he was going to be, and kept in communication, while coming in on budget. Would highly recommend him. Thanks Greg!

Had a large plum tree fall onto my neighbours lawn. Contacted Greg to see if and when he could come and remove it. He was here within a couple of hours and did a super job of cutting it up and removing the debris. His price was excellent as was his work. Would recommend him highly.
