Just be sure to bring cash or check as they do not accept credit/debit cards. I cannot say enough about their quality plants and customer service. FYI, if you hesitate to shop there because of their location on Westnedge, don't worry; they have an entry/exit to a side road that has a traffic light to get back onto Westnedge!

If you're looking for two hard-working guys who do excellent work with lawn care, landscaping, and power washing, hire Cody and Josh with Pure Lawn Solutions.

The owner, Cameron, used to be a mechanic, and auto body worker, so in addition to his lawn services and snow plowing (both of which we have used, successfully), I would imagine you could also use him for mechanic's services. His integrity? Well, last winter, when he was plowing our driveway, he accidentally backed into the right rear corner of my car, which was parked outside, creating a significant dent. RIGHT AWAY, without hesitation, he told me about it AND offered to repair it at no cost (which he did, once the weather warmed up a bit). Looks as good as new. Now THAT is Integrity! I have a feeling he hasn't advertised a whole lot, so you may not have heard of this company; I urge you to give him a shot for lawn care, snowplowing, and maybe even car repair. He's a good man.

In addition, I had contracted with the for snow removal but the driver would cause damage to my lawn. Each time that I mentioned that to DeYoung, as required by my contract, the driver damaged even more of my lawn, ignoring markers and driving an entire truck length into my lawn. I decided to give notice to cancel the snow removal contract and look elsewhere for that portion of my service. Today I attempted to submit my summer contract for lawn mowing. I had signed a contract in the fall for landscaping this year. My e-mail was returned stating that DeYoung had chosen to not honor my contracts and to cease services. Why - because I let them know that their snow plow operator damaged my lawn, as required in my contract, and let them know that I was not happy? In my opinion, they were unprofessional and didn't honor their own contract requirements and were malicious in cancelling the contracts because of an issue caused by them. Maybe the nephew who took over the business needs more experience and lessons learned. To be clear, the landscaping and lawn mowing crews were amazing.
