He moved quickly when given the go-ahead and didn't stop until the work was finished. We are thrilled with the work and David's professionalism. Moreover his client service is excellent and he was extremely responsive to any questions we had and changes we wanted. David is very highly recommended. **★★★★★ — HU-804020623, March 2022** > HIGHLY recommend. > David and his team transformed our front yard on Indian Rd. > > We worked together on the design and David brought creativity to planning the layout and plantings. We appreciated David's responsiveness to our input and ideas to trim the budget. > > When it came to building, the team was professional and tidy. We ran into challenges (tree roots+++) and David worked to solve the problem, stay on time and budget. > > Afterwards when we needed support for damages done by City of Toronto when replacing the adjacent sidewalk, David provided his advice and time to us to ensure the full rehabilitation. > > Neighbours and strangers comment on how well it turned out. > We are completely satisfied with our experience and recommend without reservation. > > Thanks ++ to David and your team. **★★★★★ — Judith Solakofski, Feb. 2022** > AMAZING!!! The best! In the summer 2021 I hired David to design and install a, new stone parking pad, stone front walkway, stone stairs and soft landscaping. I am and my neighbours are so delighted and happy with the work David and his team did. > David and his crew were amazing, they came on time, gave me updates, cleaned up and were very attentive to every little detail. I am so happy with David's work that this spring ( 2022) he is going to design and install a new front garden for me. **★★★★★ — Vaune Davis, Jan. 2021** > I am so glad I hired David McEldon to redesign and relandscape my backyard. He turned my rundown mudpit in Toronto into a perfect urban oasis with deck, pergola, flagstones and an artfully designed garden. Best of yet, it was finished in three weeks - on budget, and just when I needed it most: to safely entertain outdoors during this awful pandemic. **★★★★★ — Donna Hurst, Jan. 2019** > I hired David in October 2018 to redesign and relandscape my front yard which was a tired, dried out mess. But now, thanks to David’s artistic and creative vision, an eye for detail and function and a lot of hard work by he and his crew, it has been transformed into what I can only call a work of art. It’s a pure pleasure to now look out my room window! **★★★★★ — bonniemo, Jan. 2019** > We worked closely with David to make our vision for a low maintenance front yard landscaping project come to life. From lighting to custom planters and an extension of our existing walkway, David exceeded our expectations and was a pleasure to work with. > > David was knowledgeable, reliable and made it all happen on schedule and on budget. **★★★★★ — J Shulman, Jan. 2019** > We used David's Landscaping company last summer to put in a new fence and help clean up our yard. His quote for the time the project would take, the cost were bang on and he did an excellent job. My neighbours have all used him and his team and I would highly recommend if you are looking for professional work with fair pricing. **★★★★★ — Mark, Oct. 2018** > We have trusted David with numerous home projects for 5 years now, including extensive landscaping, fencing, and drainage. He and his team are incredibly professional, courteous, tidy (always clean up after themselves), and get the job done on budget and on time. We always get a high quality job at a reasonable price and David is sure to check in afterwards to make sure we are pleased. We love both his creativity when it comes to design and his attention to detail. My family has recommended David to numerous friends over the years. Thanks for the great work and for being so dependable, David! **★★★★★ — Marcus Strong, Sept. 2018** > David was a pleasure to work with from design concept through to project execution. We're extremely happy with the quality of his work which included landscape design, demolition, patio-stonework, planting and carpentry (porch decking and screen work). He was timely and on budget. Will work with him again. **★★★★★ — John Smith, Nov. 2017** > We purchased a laneway from the city of Toronto and needed a landscaper to work on a project between 6 neighbours. David was able to work with each one individually, which was no easy task, given different tastes, budgets and personalities. For our house, he removed an old wood fence, fixed the laneway so it sod can grow and put up a new fence. He was able to complete the work in under a couple of weeks. The best part of it, David is the only contractor that I have ever met that did not go over his estimate. He is professional, hardworking and very concerned that the final result adheres to his vision of the project. I highly recommend David for any landscaping project. **★★★★★ — Kathleen Skead, Aug. 2017** > This is the second landscaping project that David has done for me and I cannot recommend him highly enough. He has a very keen sense of design and is meticulous in his work. Both projects were completed on time, within budget and I now have a beautiful garden that requires very little maintenance and brings me much joy. **★★★★★ — rebach, Aug. 2017** > David and his team built a 700 square foot, two tier deck, completely new fencing around the yard, including the gate and the custom stone walkway. Beautiful work, excellent craftsmanship, we are in love with our backyard oasis. ## Selected projects - [Fielding Avenue](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/fielding-avenue-pj-vj~2491107) - Location: Toronto, ON - Photos: 3 - Description: Cedar linear fence with Corten backdrop, Coloured acrylic fence with notched displays, custom copper fence mounted planters with sedum, cedar planters for tropicals, square cut flagstone , modern cedar pergola, brick garage facade with stained glass,serviceberry, japanese maple, european beech hedging, landscape lighting, AC enclosure - [Ritchie rooftop furniture](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/ritchie-rooftop-furniture-pj-vj~2491094) - Location: Toronto, ON - Photos: 4 - [John B.
