Fence Installers in Calgary

“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.”

“I started working with Jacqui and Jude from Scottish Gardener in 2020. This was my third attempt to work with a landscape professional since 2017, and it was finally a great success. In spring 2021, they expanded the plant beds, and designed and built gorgeous natural-looking brick borders around them. After that, we continued with annual maintenance help through the year, for compost, mulch, weeding, and clean-ups. We are currently working on a plan to convert the front yard into a native garden. I like being a hands-on gardener, I believe I have somewhat decent knowledge of plants and I enjoy working with them - I am not a novice. Yet I am consistently impressed by their immense amount of knowledge about various plants. And while I can do much work myself, I learned that professionals are incredibly efficient. Before we started working together, I was a bit uncertain about hourly rates for gardening help - yet I learned that they do everything at least twice faster than I do. Weeding, soil improvement, or mulching that I was worrying about in the past, wondering if it would take me a whole week to get done in my spare time? Most of these are now completed in a 2-hour visit, and I know they are done well. Which frees me to truly feel the joy of gardening, without its stresses. What I also love about working with Jacqui and Jude, and what was missing from my previous attempts, is that it truly feels like a team. I wanted creative collaboration: Someone to share and discuss my ideas with, and help develop them together, with excitement and interest. That is a precious experience. I hope that over the next couple of years, together, we will make this garden a low-maintenance marvel of beautiful native plants: Where blooms or seeds are accessible through much of the season, supporting birds, butterflies and native bees, and our own sense of joy and awe.”

“I have hired Colebuilt Enterprises Ltd., (Cole Tarras) for three separate projects at three separate properties in the last four years. The first project was extensive relating to our yard at our home which included a new fence, new deck, pergola and privacy screening. We decided to allow Cole to have a free hand at design and use of materials based on our vision of what we wanted our yard to look like and fit for our personal needs and styles we like. The results were nothing but fantastic, with exceptional quality in fit and finish. Our yard has been featured in magazines. Other projects included renovations to our veranda at our acreage, again giving Cole creative licence with terrific results. Lastly a more functional renovation of a kitchen at our investment property which had to be done quickly to avoid as much disruption of tenants as possible. And, as before the work quality was excellent. We have recommended Colebuilt Enterprises Ltd., to friends who also had extensive work done to their yard in relation to their deck. The results were a functional and attractive space for outdoor living, completed quickly and with results that are outstanding. Cole always worked closely with us during the projects we were doing and explained why the inevitable changes along the way were necessary and options were provided to keeps costs in line with original estimates. Cole can be counted to arrive on time and complete his work in the time frame agreed to.”
