Shades of Summer Landscaping

Brad and Eric did an amazing job on my front entrance way and driveway renovation. Shades of Summer showed superb attention detail and completed the work in the expected amount of time. I received numerous compliments from neighbours, one of which then contracted Eric and his crew to renovate their landscape.

Absolutely delighted with Shades of Summer. This patio project was done with such precision, craftsmanship and care that it exceeded my wildest dream. If you want a perfect job done, they are the one you can trust! We are doing phase 2 this June will post pictures when all done.

Hi. My name is Catherine and my husband and i live in Dundas On. Two years ago, we noticed several new homes having landscaping done in the front of their homes. When the work was completed, we were very impressed with the variety of plants, bushes, shrubs and tress that were used as well as the decorative stone placement. We contacted Brad from Shades of Summer Landscaping and made an appointment to meet him regarding the front of our home. After discussing what we would like to have done he returned in a timely manner and discussed his plans. We received our quote and plans were made to do the gardens the following spring. The following spring, the plans began. The team of workers arrived as scheduled and the work began. The plans were reviewed , all questioned answered again and the work began. The teamwork was very professional. The variety of the products used were designed to best suit our gardens, as we do have a lot of deer that will come right onto our property. Several long days after , our gardens were complete.My husband and i were Very pleased with the final outcome. We would Highly recommend Brad and his company "Shades of Summer" due to their work ethics, quality of products used, their professionalism and care to detail. You will definitely be pleased that you chose this company. L & C Dundas

After patient research and interviews, we selected Shades of Summer in the summer of 2014, for a large project for the following season. From the beginning we were impressed with Brad and Tracy's creativity and imagination. In collaboration with us, a plan and a vision for our yard came to life. A budget was set and adhered to and only exceeded when we choose to expand the project. All workmanship by members of the crew was first-rate with great attention to detail. The work site was consistently tidy and organized. One of the features that we really enjoyed about working with Brad was his openness for allowing the project to evolve and change as needs, desires and circumstances changed. Brad and his crew worked in a very collaborative way with allied trades who were involved in the project. All this made for a happy, positive work site. Brad has a wonderful after-care program that is designed for the successfully care, nurturing and maturing of all plantings. The project was completed with a reasonable timeline. It was a pleasure to work with Shades of Summer and we would not hesitate to endorse their design, collaboration, craftsmanship and care for detail. Ken and Karen

Great company to work with. Brad and his team are very professional in all ways. They did a five-star job on some front landscape work at my house; very creative and very flexible with suggestions. Good communication all around. On a second small job when I had some expressed concerns, Brad committed to deal with the issues without question. In a time when many landscapers sacrifice customer care for more dollars, Shades of Summer was a refreshing experience.

Brad and his team have looked after our professionally landscaped garden and grounds for several years, with the results that we have had 3 Trillium awards, and the admiration of neighbors and friends. The work is always done with great care and attention to detail, and additional work discussed when needed. He has excellent people working with him who know their plants and garden techniques. We fully recommend him to others wanting expert landscaping and garden care.

I have had what seems like a life-long relationship with Brad Paton and the Shades of Summer crew. They all feel like family. I have always felt that they treat my property as their own, taking great personal pride in the awards that it has won. They are professionally trained to notice problems in the garden before it becomes a major problem, their equipment is always in first class working order along with clean trucks. Brad is not an absentee owner, he too works with the crews and has first hand knowledge of all of the properties. He believes that you cannot expect what you don't inspect. I know without a doubt that I am probably one of their "most hard to please" customers but I find that nothing is too much to ask of them - their work is outstanding..
