Even though the project was substatial we feel the value of what we recieved was well worth every penny. Special shout out to Dane heading up every step of our project. His talents were observed every day executing a project of this size from the labour and landscaping skills to his leadership and communication with his team.

Our landscaping plan was precisely drawn out in draft software prior to start, so we knew exactly what we were getting. When work commenced, they worked full days, and got it done in a timely manner. They were extremely courteous with the neighbors, never blocking the roadways near our house, the worksite was kept very tidy. When we changed our mind about some details mid-build, they were able to accommodate without issue. We would certainly choose them again! **Comment from Twisted Rock Terrascape & Design, Inc.:** > Thank you so much for your kind words and thoughtful review! We're thrilled to hear you were happy with both the planning process and the execution of your project. At Twisted Rock, we pride ourselves on delivering clear communication, professionalism, and flexibility to meet our clients' needs—even when plans evolve mid-project! > > The Twisted Rock Team **★★★★★ — Jason, Sept. 2024** > We are SO happy we ended up choosing Tim and Jeff to complete our landscaping project for our new build home. There is a reason this company only has 5 star reviews. They are absolutely top notch in all aspects of the process! > > We gave Jeff creative control on the design of our yard, and he did not disappoint. Our community has many architectural controls, and he did a fantastic job coming up with a great design, all within the guidelines required. > > Once they were to begin work, they raised an issue with the lot grade, and went to battle with me to convince the builder it was not done correctly in the first place. This included an escalation to the developer, multiple emails and an onsite meeting with all the parties involved to get the issue settled so they could begin work. This was absolutely not within the scope of the project, but Tim was able to leverage his previous expertise to get the site prepared for his team to begin their work. > > The project was done on time, and on budget, and their crew was nothing but respectful and meticulous about their work. We had multiple neighbor's with similar sized projects that took over double the time to complete. > > Honestly, don't bother calling anyone else. Their pricing is competitive, and you will get what you pay for (and then some!) with the team at Twisted Rock. > > Thanks again Tim and Jeff - we'll be referring you to all of our family and friends! **Comment from Twisted Rock Terrascape & Design, Inc.:** > Thank you so much for the fantastic review! It was a pleasure working on your project. > > The team is always dedicated to ensuring things are done right, and we’re happy we could help with the lot grading issues. > > We truly appreciate your trust in us and your referrals. Thanks again for choosing Twisted Rock! > > The Twisted Rock Team **★★★★★ — Miliya Davidov, July 2024** > I recently had the pleasure of working with Twisted Rock landscaping company, and I cannot express enough how pleased I am with their work. Jeff, the project manager, was incredibly patient and accommodating, making sure that our vision for the design was realized. He listened attentively to our ideas and was open to making changes along the way. The entire team at Twisted Rock was not only kind and professional but also highly skilled in their craft. They transformed our outdoor space into a stunning landscape that exceeded our expectations. The attention to detail and quality of their workmanship was exceptional. I highly recommend Twisted Rock to anyone looking for a top-notch landscaping company. They will go above and beyond to ensure your satisfaction.

Your recommendation means a lot to us, and we are grateful for your support. > Thank you again for choosing Twisted Rock! **★★★★ — HU-189297144, July 2024** > We hired Twisted Rock last fall (2023) to landscape our front and back yard. This involved installing patio stones, rock beds, sod, pouring concrete barriers, and planting various shrubs and grasses. The work was done in a timely manner and we were most impressed with the crew as they were efficient and kept the site neat and tidy. Once it was completed, we were pleased with the results. > This spring, we were dismayed to see that a section of the patio stones had sunk and also, some of the plants did not survive. After a few emails and discussions with TW, they arranged to have everything fixed and now we are happy with the work. I would recommend this company if you are looking for a landscaper. **★★★★★ — Ehigie Imarhiagbe, June 2024** > The team at Twisted rock were absolutely amazing. Affable and personable staff, excellent service. From initial design consultation to project execution, Jeff and his team never dropped the bar and always delivered service with professionalism and excellence demonstrating respect for desires and our time. Hats off for their high sense of innovation and creativity. We absolutely love the outcome of our landscaping adventure. > Highly recommended **Comment from Twisted Rock Terrascape & Design, Inc.:** > Thank you so much for your glowing review! We are thrilled to hear about your positive experience with Twisted Rock. Our team takes great pride in delivering exceptional service, and your kind words affirm our efforts. It was a pleasure working with you from the initial design consultation to the completion of your landscaping project. Thank you again for choosing Twisted Rock! **★★★★★ — Lee Rathwell, Dec. 2023** > Wanted to let people know how great our experience with Twisted Rock was. Our project was not that big but involved removal of sod, re-landscaping our backyard slope and adding a retaining wall. Jeff and Tim provided a very reasonable quote and advised it would take 2-3 days to complete. I couldn't believe it but in 2 days they had completed all the work. The equipment they had at their disposal was above and beyond my expectation. They even brought in a tamper mounted on a mini backhoe just to ensure they had good soil compaction. Everyone on the team worked hard, knew what to do and took the time to answer any questions I had. Very impressed with the quality of their work. I definitely would recommend Twisted Rock to anyone considering a landscaping project. **★★★★★ — Maria & Tom, Dec. 2023** > Your work on our yard development project was exemplary. Our design discussions were very productive and produced the layout we were hoping for. > Your project management was top notch and produced the result within budget and on time, under sometimes difficult conditions. > Your construction skills were also top notch and all our visitors have commented on the excellence of workmanship. Subsequent lot property surveys have confirmed that you were always within the lot lines and our neighbours were pleased with how you respected their property rights during the construction phase. Your team members were always friendly and courteous as well as efficient. > The Rundle Rock and retaining walls are stable and performed as expected: no erosions occurred through the autumn rains and early winter snows. Runoff confirmed that the soil and gravel stayed in place and the landscaping membrane has also remained intact and stable. This is no small thing considering the 30% slope and near 6m elevation difference between the utility corridor fence and the patio. > The patio stones have also been as per plan, are stable and shed water quite well. It has endured two snow melt/refreeze cycles with no damage. Visitors always commented on the layout pattern of the stones and true-ness of the stones to the curved edge next to the retaining wall. > The spruce mini forest seems to be surviving, despite the recent drought conditions we have experienced, with no signs of damage. > In summary, the project development and site work were performed efficiently and effectively. The deliverables have performed well, and the yard looks great. We enjoyed working with you and are pleased with the experience and the final product. We will continue to recommend you to anyone who is looking for a top quality landscaping firm. **★★★★★ — HU-791530126, Dec. 2023** > Jeff and his crew at Twisted Rock did an amazing job on our yard. Their attention to detail is high. > It rare too see a company put 100% towards customer satisfaction and final product over making the extra dollar. > We have a yard that we will enjoy for years to come. ## Selected projects - [Mahogany Island](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/mahogany-island-pj-vj~6122410) - Location: Calgary, AB - Photos: 14 - Description: This was a very large water front project with a lot of moving parts.
