Green Works Contracting Inc.

Currently on the 6th year of shovelling snow and salting here and I still love it. It is easy to love the people who work here to for they are warm and accepting!
It’s a great place to be if you want a friendly and hard working atmosphere. The standard of excellence is held high and a good majority of the bad I’ve seen is understandable and also normal circumstances that can easily be tolerated and the bosses/supervisors have certainly cut much slack for my bad behaviour. When they said they are calm and professional, they truly stick behind their word and it’s been fun.

After significant research, we decided to bring Green Works Contracting in to build a shed pad and to build an interlock patio for our outdoor dining area.

We were NOT disappointed! The team was hard working, courteous, and made a couple recommendations (that worked out AMAZINGLY) over the course of the three days they were on site.

They cleaned up at the end of every day and left the property in great shape daily.

I would recommend them without hesitation, and would be happy to have them back on site for future projects!

Excellent experience from start to finish, professional and transparent. Matt and the crew finished the work within a day, very detailed and clean. Would recommend Green Works without a hesitation.

Our experience with Green Works was nothing but outstanding. The entire team is hardworking, extremely dedicated, focused and completed the job on time. I would highly recommend them and will be using their services again in the future.

Very professional experience. Punctual, considerate and great communication. Very happy with our service and final result!

Crew arrived on time. They seemed very organised as they tilled and removed the existing lawn. Their installation of the new sod was meticulous to detail, especially around our existing interlock. Entire job was finished in 1 day and they cleaned up before leaving. Their after sales service was good. After 2 weeks, there was a small problem with some of the sod but Green Works was very prompt to make the repairs. The company gave us a comprehensive guide about the care and maintenance of the new lawn. We found that very helpful.

Green Works completed what seemed to be a difficult backyard renovation very quickly and with care. The were professional, courteous, and cleaned up the site after the job was done. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again!

We have struggled to get good service from many contractors over the past year, but Matt, Andre and his team were absolutely professional, efficient and kind. On time, communicative and good quality! I will be sure to recommend them again!
Thank you!

I had an amazing experience with Matt Pepin's team at GreenWorks! Fantastic communication and a good quote. Matt listened to our ideas for our backyard project and started on the date promised and finished up the work in a day! Highly recommend Greenworks!

We called Green Works and a few other companies to get estimates for a complete overhaul of our front and back yards. Matt came by a few days later and promptly gave us a competitive estimate. Shortly afterward the crew came by and performed a huge job in just over a day. Matt and the other employees were professional and the job was very much to our satisfaction. No hesitation in recommending Matt and Green Works.

The Greenworks sodding work was fantastic. They really did a great job on replacing our entire backyard's grass. And a nice crew. Very friendly and courteous.

My wife Cheryl Brooks hired Green Works to re-sod the central portion of our front lawn which had sparse grass and was sunken. The price was right and the crew was fast and efficient in doing the job. They even sodded some small extra areas at no extra charge. Special thanks to André for his helpful advice.

Greenworks has been a salvation.just need a heavy rainfall to really test the solution. If everything works - the review can be adjusted up.:)

I could not find a company in Ottawa to help with a drainage problem that involved a blockage in a buried pipe from a eavestrough downspout that caused water to overflow over my front patio. Landscapers didn't want to bother with me. Another company wanted to dig up the driveway (yikes!).

They immediately proposed a simple and straight-forward solution (a pop-up drain in the garden).

I haven't been able to see yet how the drain performs under heavy downpour conditions (that will really be the key test) so I may revisit my review later depending on performance.

Rep came on time and was professional in his review of my yard, I wanted sod and river stone. Gave me a quote next day which was reasonable, managed to fit my yard in ahead of anticipated service date. Huge difference, very pleased. Work looks great.

Their vehicle was parked illegally all morning, blocking the Richmond Road detour and posing a hazard as Richmond traffic had to go in the opposite lane to go around their truck and trailer, unable to see the cars coming opposite. Didn't seem to care, they were smoking. Their leaf blowers are needlessly noisy and without regard for pedestrians. They have noise protection, we don't. If you want to feel disdained and cause a hazard for your city, this is the business for you.

We had a beautiful interlock patio with steps installed. Green Works (manager, crews, office staff) were totally professional throughout the entire process. The design process with Mike went smoothly. We appreciated that Mike made 2 visits to our place before commitment (signing). The crew members neatly removed the old patio and steps. They did a great job installing the new patio and steps. After each day's work, the construction site, driveway, and street was cleaned up. The restoration crew completed the project with meticulous work on the sod & garden beds.

Team arrived with 16 workers. Work was done to a high standard and finished well ahead of schedule. Very professional and ensured we were happy before leaving.

These guys are top notch! Quick, clean, professional and really good quality sod. We would definitely recommend greenworks.

Retained Green Works for sod installation and landscaping my backyard. Quote was very competitive, they were easy to communicate with and provided a detailed maintenance guide for the sod. They came on time and it took less than two hours to finish everything. Super happy with the services provided.

Matthew was excellent in organizing his wonderful crew of specialists to do resoodding. The work was completed on time and with high quality. Even the driveway was swept afterwards. Would definitely recommend GreenWorks Contracting.

I wanted to take some time to write a review for Greenworks contracting. We had what I would consider a large job in that we wanted river rock along the side and back, stepping stones, a shed base built and new sod laid. We started this process in fall of 2021 (the planning) and the job was recently completed. Matt was our site supervisor. He came out at the beginning of the year to finalize the job.wanted the shed but were unsure where to put it and Matt actually helped us select a discreet area in the back (we didn't think we could use it because of drainage but Matt indicated we could which was great). To the job part. They had a cancellation and asked if they could come on a specific date to which we agreed. First thing they did was cover our interlock driveway with a blanket so it wouldn't get damaged or dirty. There must have been 7-8 people they assigned to this job. They arrived at 8am, Matt took me through a final walk through of the job and we made a last minute change. They left at 5pm. They had the whole job finished in one day, they were friendly, Matt was there to answer some of my questions and they were open to making changes on the spot. I had thought I was going to have to spray down my interlock but when they took the blanket off it was as clean as when they put it on. They cleaned up after themselves quite well and about an hour of so after Matt left I received a call from Kelloway to ask how my experience was. My neighbour was interested in what was done and will be calling Greenworks to have some work done. We have dealt with many companies and we were super impressed with Greenworks.

Mike and his team were very professional and detail oriented in the execution of our backyard design. We are very satisfied with the outcome and the level of service we received. We would definitely do more business with them and recommend them to friends and neighbours!

Great experience working with greenworks! They did awesome work, extremely professional and very responsive to all my requests. Would recommend them to anyone looking for any landscaping needs!

Greenworks plows my condominium complex and I have never been so impressed. They are always on time and have me plowed out before I have to leave for work. The workers are always polite and efficient. Thanks Greenworks!

Easy to work with through the estimate process. Crew arrived on time and did quality, efficient work. Very easy process and competitive pricing as well.

We decided to go with Green Works to re-sod our lawn after checking with numerous sources for estimates. Their quote was fair and very comprehensive.
We had several touchpoints before the actual day of installation to ensure we had the necessary information, and the day the work was to be done, the crew arrived at the designated time, very polite and helpful, and proceeded very quickly to their work, which was done excellently and efficiently.
After work completion, we had a follow-up to ensure we understood the steps necessary to help the lawn take properly, and their phone staff were very helpful to answer the questions we had regarding pets and other considerations.
We would highly recommend this service, and are looking forward to enjoying this beautiful new lawn!

From the start, I was very impressed with the quality of the service offered by the team at Green Works. It was a thoroughly enjoyable experience working with Green Works in sodding our half acre property. The crew did a fantastic job and our lawn looks amazing, the kids love playing soccer on it. Most impressive to me was how we ran into a bit of a grading issue with the city. Green Works came back and fixed the issue immediately. It was a 5 star service experience. Highly recommend.

Green Works was very helpful, offering useful landscaping suggestions based on my needs and the limitations of the property. Attention was paid to detail in the development of the design and during its implementation. Green Works staff listened and responded to my comments and concerns. The completed project was everything I hoped it would be.

I have to say, my experience dealing with Green Works was absolutely % amazing. From the 1st initial call to them, I spoke with Nicole. She was an absolute delight to speak to as she set up an appointment with me to send a consultant. Enter Sam, who spent an entire amount of time answering all our questions. His expertise sold us on the company. Tyson, the coordinator from the install, placed a couple of calls to me with great news for a date. Fast forward to August 4th. Install new sod. Absolutely great crew show up. Friendly, and very hard working. Kendall and his crew are simply amazing! Green Works keeps in contact with you sending an agenda to follow for watering, cutting, fertilizing etc. I simply can't say enough positive things about Green Works! Call them, you won't be disappointed!

Had our front lawn replaced August 10 in conjunction with our neighbours. Crew arrived on time and work was completed efficiently, professionally and to our satisfaction. Site was left very clean. We would highly recommend this company.

Solid job by the team who did work on my place. Supervisor Matt was also very helpful and easy to work/get along with. Thanks Green Works.

Had a great experience with Green Works. Sam was awesome! He took the time to visit our yard and 'imagine' with us to help with our planning. He was very knowledgable and provided us with really great advice and never pushed anything.
He provided quotes in less than 24 hours and phase one of our project was under way. Delivery experience was flawless - great service & I was impressed with the quality top soil and sod. Thank you, Sam! We hope to work with you again.

We hired Green Works to replace the sod in our front yard this past June and couldn't be happier with the result! The crew was fast and efficient and did an amazing job. They even took the time to cut some concrete around our driveway so that we would end up with a better installation. We get compliments on our new grass all the time! They called us a few weeks after the install to make sure everything was growing as it should - these guys really know their stuff. Great product and great service. Green Works exceeded our expectations!

An excellent well run and organized company. Hard working, quick and efficient crew. Very polite, answered all of our questions and a fantastic job. Cleanup was emmaculate and the job was done in a timely fashion. I would highly recommend them if you want a great lawn.

Excellent job and extremely professional. They showed up on time as promised, work extremely hard in brutally hot weather, left on time and the work site was spotless

Ordered triple mix got a sandwich loam with lots of pebbles. Talked to manager and they have fixed the problem.

Great company to work with. Staff are courteous and knowledgeable. They did a great job replacing the sod on our lawn. Would definitely recommend.

Had a small project done by Greenworks Contracting. Everything from estimate to execution was done professionally, on time and at reasonable price.

Greenworks resodded our entire property (approximately 5,000 square feet) this spring and did an amazing job! The company and its people are an absolute pleasure to work with. Sam was amazingly patient with us as our exterior design plans evolved over the last two years. He came back on multiple occasions to go over ideas and revise the estimate accordingly. And when the big day finally arrived, the crew that installed the new sod, under the direction of Matt, worked tirelessly for more than 12 hours to get the job done in one day. And the result was absolutely perfect. Our property has been transformed as a result. There is simply no better company to work with when it comes to landscaping than Greenworks!

We had Greenworks pave my mother in-law's laneway, they did a fantastic job and the quality is like none other. I would highly recommend them in a second for any contracting needs.

Spoke on the phone with Tyson from Green works, he was very informative, and even emailed me a informational sod care guide.

Excellent service, I highly recommend

A green works representative called me up to arrange an estimate. I told him I had already ordered sod from a turf farm and was going to self install it. Instead of thanking me and moving on, Sam spent the next 15 minutes going into GREAT detail with tips on how to properly prep, maintain, and water the fresh sod. WHAT GENEROSITY! I had previously worked in landscaping so I thought I knew a few things; it turns out I knew next to nothing. Sam explained things slowly with amazing clarity and I realized how that conversation may have saved my lawn. I am an avid gardener.but laying turf is just a little different. I really really appreciate his expertise and even more so his generosity of time. He didn't try to make it sound too complex. I can see why Green Works gets such great reviews. Thanks so much for your time.

Ordered a load of topsoil at a great price, which was delivered on time and very quickly. Both the driver Dave, and Nicole at the office were very friendly and easy to deal with. I will definitely use this company again for any of my landscaping needs.

Very much appreciated Green Works Contracting. Service was professional, responsive, and Mike Larabie did an excellent job managing the project. I have a new backyard that looks amazing. Thanks Green Works! You definitely have my business moving forward.

FIVE stars for Greenworks once again. This is the 2nd interlock job we had with them and they always impress and amaze. We would like to thank the interlock crew for the awesome job; we are very happy. Gilbert, Brandon and Clayton, you guys are amazing; always smiling and working hard (Boots misses you guys)! Mike, thank you for your design and making sure our front yard looks stunning. We've had many compliments from our neighbours saying how beautiful our front looks! We highly recommend Greenworks; they know what they're doing and how to make customers happy. Go with Greenworks and no regrets!

This is what buying soil should be like. The company deals mainly over the phone, but the person taking the calls was friendly and knowledgeable, they took our order straight away and were willing to deliver next-day (but were perfectly happy to wait for us to phone them). Delivery was prompt, with a friendly driver who called first to say he was coming and when, and he dropped drop the load off right where we needed it. It turned out we even got a bit more than we'd ordered too, so that was a nice little bonus. Seemed like a good price too: Not that I know a whole lot about soil, but after four hours spent digging in it, it certainly seemed to be what we'd asked them to send us. Would definitely recommend!

I was very happy with my delivery that was ordered, paid and delivered on the same day. Excellent service and quality (top soil). Thanks guys!

Start to finish, I was very impressed with the service offered by Green Works. Beginning with the pleasant and professional way that Nicole handled my telephone order to the prompt, efficient and thorough job that Dave did in delivering my soil, I good not have asked for a better response to my request! I highly recommend Green Works!

Really happy with the triple mix soil. The driver was so helpful and courteous. The service is perfect for us. Thank you.

Green Works did our whole landscape in 2019, including drainage, grading, interlock, paving, fencing and sodding. We had met with several contractors before Green Works, but none were really prepared to do the whole job. We first met Kellaway in late fall 2018 with the intention of doing the work in 2019. He met with us several times to go over the design until we were satisfied, and we were able to schedule a August - Sept 2019 for the work. Materials arrived promptly and on time, and their team did a stellar job. Everyone paid attention to detail and aesthetics, tweaking and adjusting every cut until it was perfect, and selecting just the right stones to tie the job together. Strongly recommended.

Finished the work a few days ago, the lawn is beautiful. Had a bad experience with an inexperienced lawn contractor 5 years ago that didn’t seem to know which side to lay the sod! Obviously I’m exaggerating but my lawn never took and deteriorated. Green works was very professional during the estimate process by giving it in a folder with proof of insurance and having additional documents to assist the decision process. Mind you, other estimates were sent very unprofessionally by text, had to contact another company 3 times to finally have the estimate, and had 3 non call backs. I received an estimate, from the last company, almost double the amount than everyone else. (Guess they didn’t want to do the job). Good landscaping contractors in Ottawa are rare and far in between. Be wary and do your due diligence.

I would, however, have no problem recommending Green Works. The best company for the price versus quality of work. The installers were professional, polite, tidy and they were courteous during the install. The follow-up phone call the next week was a nice touch too. They seem to really care and have pride about their work.

Thanks for the wonderful work. Everything was a pleasant experience and would definitely recommend.

We have never dealt with a more professional and satisfaction oriented company than Green Works. Our lawn and yard was the worst in the neighborhood and is now the best. Neighbors constantly comment on it and I do not hesitate to praise the lovely job done and how happy we are with the results. Very hard working staff, friendly and respectful. There was total cleanup done at the end of the job and all excess was removed. Special thanks to Kelloway and Sam and the boys for their hard work and dedication to a job well done. An excellent company. I would give 10 stars!

Green Works Contracting is a professionally managed company. They kept us informed as to when the project will be started and completed. They ensured we were well informed on how to care for our lawn to get the best longterm outcome. They have a courteous and informed staff of employees that do the front line work as well as always available via phone. We are very pleased with our new backyard lawn- looking great.

I would like to express my appreciation to the crew that install my new lawn last week. Sam and his crew were quite efficient, clean, extremely attentive to achieve a quality job. I also appreciated the follow up telephone call from Kellaway to ask how everything was and if I had any issues or questions. I’m very satisfied and would recommend Green works to anyone.

Green Works re-sodded our lawn and installed a garden bed. Great experience from start to finish. Crew did a great job installing the lawn/garden and ensured the site was left clean. Lots of complements from our neighbours on a great looking job. Good follow-up and support from Green Works after the installation.

Great job, finished on budget with only one rain delay. The team worked hard all day and finished on time.
