Moving into a new home I was starting from scratch. I had some ideas for my backyard landscaping but needed to find someone reliable to carry out my vision. I visited his website and was impressed with his work. During initial discussions Ian had some great suggestions. His attention to every detail was very impressive and a positive experience. I am very happy with the results Ian is a pleasure to work with. I wouldn’t hesitate to hire him again!

When we first started our landscaping project, we thought we could rent some machinery and build our rock gardens on our own! That did not work out well at all! We were given Ian's name and contact info. What a blessing that turned out to be! Over the course of 3 years, as we added new rock gardens or had other projects for the delivery of soil and gravel, Ian and his team at Green Earth came through time and again! In May of 2019 he completed our front yard in Collingwood and we constantly get positive comments from our neighbours and area residents about our amazing mossy rocks that could not have been "planted" without Ian's assistance. We highly recommend Green Earth Landscapes.

Ian's company recently completed a few additions/enhancements to our landscaping: natural stone walkways, installation of underground pipe, water feature, and reconfiguring garden area, We are very happy with the results. Ian came up with some great ideas and his work blends perfectly with existing design elements. Not only is he a good communicator, reliable, and fair in pricing, but also a pleasure to work with.

We want to provide this review based on our experience with Ian and his team. From the initial design discussions to actual build can only be described as a wonderful experience. Ian spent considerable time consulting with us on what we wanted our new homes exterior surrounding to look like based on life style, the location and size of the property.


Constantly checking and reviewing the progress ensured that we ended up with what we were looking for. Our yard incorporates the feel of our family from the hot tub with all the stone work and vegetation and irrigation needed.


Meticulous attention to customer satisfaction and quality workmanship describes Ian and Green Earth Landscapes.

Last fall Ian and his team did some garden beds for us in the front of our home as well as the back. He was able to incorporate our existing natural stone into the new beds and added a stunning elevated bed in the back of our home. This year we are starting the process to have him design and cost out some additional work. (Natural stone patio and extension of fencing) We love the fact that Ian will do smaller jobs and work with us over a few years to complete our landscaping projects in a cost effective plan. Thanks Ian.

From the design discussions to material sourcing to construction, Ian and his team did a wonderful job creating entrance steps and porch flooring, landings, rock walls and driveway edging using natural stone. We've gone from builder's concrete steps and a tiny patio paver landing to a gracious entrance to our home reflective of our tastes. Ian is a true craftsman, and his attention to detail impressive, carefully considering the patterns and natural flow of the rock in determining placement.

We have no hesitation in recommending Ian and his company for your landscaping needs. Should you wish to speak to us in person, please contact Ian and he can arrange this.

Reliable! I love my lawn, garden, natural stone patio and front steps. Could not have asked for anything nicer, and when I say, reliable, Ian was here every day until the job was completed. He has great idea suggestions - you can tell he loves his work. I highly recommend him.
