Leishman Landscaping Ltd

Worst ever. No after sales service. Disrespectful to women. Con artist. Beware

The guy's a crook. I have now met others who have been ripped off by Graham Leishman. Don't believe a word he tells you, don't be impressed by the shiny red trucks and just go somewhere else. Consider yourself WARNED !!

Leishman Landscaping is TERRIBLE! Fancy designs and a great sales job yes....however, execution was awful with no care or passion for creating what you are paying for. The crew didn't follow designs, were rude to us and worst of all rushed through the whole job to get onto the next one. Biggest issues: Design flaws - 1. encouraged us to relocate a patio table/set and stonework to underneath a HUGE blue spruce (which drops needles as well as sap). To counter we were forced to build a structure above the table to protect us from getting sapped on. 2. Planting of new trees under umbrella of existing blue spruce which is stunting their growth Execution Flaws: 1. Top soil wasn't added or turned before installing sod and all died within 2 months. They planted sod on top of tree branches, stones, whatever was on the ground! Planted is a loose word as they rolled it out and ran. 2. Electrical - Lighting was installed under 7 trees, 50% of the cabling wasn't buried, loose connections are everywhere and when you touch one of the lights you got shocked! We have little children so imagine this surprise. In addition he had "amazing lights better than anyone else" that fall apart, tarnish and don't work half the time. 3. Sprinkler system - they amended our existing system, ripping out rain sensor and again, 50% of the system was exposed above ground with pipes everywhere. They said "that is how it looks with this type of system". 4. Planting of new trees was done with no new soil added, trees were thrown into place as they rushed along. Straight lines were not straight, trees were crooked and worst they were planted without any room for future growth. 5. Deck - they didn't screw in boards, no wrapping was completed on the side, the crew built it 2 feet bigger than ripped us a new one when we said to build to plan! Results: We ended up having to hire another landscape firm to fix their mistakes at a cost of $5000! Leishman is brutal. Go against the sales pitch and hire someone else, PLEASE!

Have used the service of Leishman Landscaping on two big projects. The design was always top notch and the execution was flawless.

Leishman Landscaping presents as a professional company with the knowledge to design and install hardscape / landscape. Unfortunately when it comes to execution they fail miserable. Do not be fooled by the flashy designs and architecture. While the designs were beautiful they chose to use substandard materials and took short cuts on installation. As a result the project started to fail within the first year. They refused to return during the warranty period and it has cost me thousands of dollars to have another reputable company come and repair the damage, this is on top of the hundreds of thousands we spent to have Leishman perform the work in the first place. The plant selection was not appropriate for my yard and ALL of the plants / trees have died, the deck was poorly constructed, the watering system was poorly installed resulting in damage to my home...I could go on but it's really not worth it just like it won't be worth it for you to even consider using this company. STAY AWAY!!
