Pool closure

We moved recently to our new house in Oakville,ON and we needed to close and winterize the pool before the cold season.We contacted Ms Daphne Wheeler from Backyard Getaway and she gave all the help and support needed. The team were in time and very professional and when they left, the place was nice and clean.

Thank you for contacting Backyard Getaways to close your pool, Mohamed. You didn’t get to use your pool for very long before you had to close up for winter, but you’ll certainly enjoy your backyard come spring. We look forward to providing your future pool service needs. Thank you, Daphne

Pool, Landscape, Hot Tub, Cabana

It was important for us to trust our pool and landscape company as this is a big project for us. After visiting another project built by backyard getaways and visiting there staff, it was an easy decision to make. The family owned business gives you quality material, good workmanship, and value. They have great ideas and the design catered to our needs while keeping our backyard into perspective. We are very pleased with the construction and cleanliness of their staff.

Thanks to the great work from the team at Backyard Getaways! We now have a truly amazing backyard getaway! The team was professional and knowledgeable from the sales and design, to the construction and pool chemical maintenance. The design phase was stress free, the construction work was well organized, with a lot of effort placed on the details that would make the final result exceptional. We were very pleased with our choice and would not hesitate to recommend this great company! Thanks again to the entire team at Backyard Getaways!

Pool, Stonework, Hot Tub, Landscape

As this is our 2nd project we already knew the high standard of quality & service you provide and yet you still exceeded our expectations with this much larger job - huge amount of stone work, huge customized pool with all the bells & whistles, and awesome hot tub!

The final project turned out even better than what we envisioned and we so appreciate all of the creative suggestions that make it the stunning property that we have today!

We love your crew - I have never seen such a talented group of people that work so hard and are a pleasure to deal with. I know on more than one occassion we heard "we`ll do it however you want" and "as long as you`re happy" coming from the members of the crew - we truly felt that they were taking the same pride of ownership as if it was their own home. We are very appreciative of how you coordinated everything so well for us - even when other people were causing delays you still managed to keep the project on schedule and on budget.

We also appreciate being involved in as much as we wanted to - going to the stoneyard to pick what we liked, and having consults on the site often to ensure we were happy and to see if we wanted changes made. Our property has been custom designed and has been totally tailored to how we live and how we will get the most use and enjoyment for many years to come - it is amazing!

You guys are the best in the business and worth every penny! Backyard Getaways will be always getting high praise and referrals from us. We look forward to having the whole gang over to enjoy the finished product next year!

What could this company do to improve their services?
I wouldn't change a thing about them or how they do business.
Any advice to offer fellow homeowners facing a similar project?
There is no way any other company could have pulled off the quality & service that Backyard Getaways provides, the price you get is what you pay - there are no upcharges later or surprises - which we know we would have had from the other companies we looked at before once again booking Backyard Getaways. From the moment we booked them they took care of everything - we just got to sit back and enjoy the process. Nobody does it better than them - period.

My husband Jimmy and I would like to thank Backyard Getaways and all the wonderful workers, and staff for letting us realize our dream of a backyard pool. They not only met our expectations but highly exceeded them. We couldn't ask for more courteous, respectful and efficient workers. Not only did the workers work diligently every day to finish the tasks in a amazingly short period of time, but the property was always left in an orderly manner after each shift.
We also want to thank the managers for their patience and understanding when we struggled with our choices. And for helping us gain confidence to ensure that the end result would be a masterpiece. In our view our pool is a work of art and we praise Backyard Getaways for their hard work. We undeniably refer Backyard Getaways to anyone looking for their 'dream' pool.
Sincerely,
Jimmy and Maria

Pool & Landscaping

We hired Backyard Getaways Inc to design and build our pool and backyard Landscaping and we couldn't have picked a better company to create our backyard Oasis.
From the initial sales meeting to the design meeting and to the final construction stage, they were all so professional to deal with. Hard working Team.
Anyone looking to have a quality and unique pool and backyard environment built really needs to call them! Exceptional work!

Raised Stone Patio

After interviewing numerous landscaping companies we decided on Backyard Getaways as they had done a beautiful pool for friends of ours. Regi was very patient with the selection of the materials and the exact way we envisioned the outcome. The day to day crew was the same crew (James, Mario, and Carlo) which was important to us as we got to know them over the three weeks and could easily communicate any issues or changes as the job progressed. Our project was in an area that couldn't accommodate heavy equipment so everything was done by hand so I was again very impressed with the hard working and punctual crew. The job was completed on time and we were more than satisfied with the final outcome. We spend most of our time outside and I wouldn't hesitate in the least to highly recommend Regi and Backyard Getaways for any outdoor landscaping or pool project.
