What our clients say.
We had the pleasure of working with Dustyn Pilger from NuScape Landscaping, a very young and talented landscape designer who truly exceeded our expectations. He brought with him a team of equally impressive young men — each one well trained, professional, and committed to the highest standards of workmanship. The results speak for themselves — our outdoor space has been completely transformed, and we couldn't be happier.
We just had work done by NuScape landscaping to the front of our house. The staff were professional, kind, hard-working, wonderful people. They showed up on time and left the job site clean and tidy. They did an expert job cutting each piece of stone to perfectly fit into a jigsaw puzzle that looks like a masterpiece. I would highly recommend this company.
We were delighted with the work done by Dustyn and his crew. The Muskoka granite steps and walkway from our deck to the lake looks great. He was reliable, kept us updated and was very attentive to details. Could not have asked for a better landscaper.
