Hofstter redid out driveway and front walk as well as built two stone retaining walls in the driveway

Hofstetter Landscaping did an amazing job. They were professional, helpful, knowledgeable and they did a great job. This was a big job that had a lot of moving parts and the crew at Hofstetters never let us down.

Hi Maryska:
Thanks for the kind words and the vote of confidence. It was a pleasure to work at your home. The retaining walls, steps and driveway really does look great, and we have had a few other customers call us after seeing your work. I'll be talking to the lady next door to you, she has called and wants to go ahead. Thanks again. Rick Hofstetter

Lanscaped walkway and front yard

These days when the name Mike Holmes is brought up in conversation home owners think of trust, knowledge and the expectations of a job perfectly done. This was the feeling I get everytime I have the pleasure of dealing with Rick and Ashleigh Hofstetter. I know the use of the saying "worry free" is tossed around far too often but that's the feeling I get when Rick and his crew show up to work for me.

Wow, to be mentioned in the same sentence as Mike Holmes is quite the compliment and an honor, and to be compared at the same level is wonderful. I have always felt that, "if you are not going to do it right, don't do it at all". I see so many guys out there attempting to do this type of work, and not having a clue what they are doing, and not caring for that matter, "get the money and run" seems to be the attitude. We've been here for 25 years and in all that time our customer has been and remains our Number 1 priority and I'm glad we have made you feel "Worry Free" because that is the way you are supposed to feel....Thank you so much. Rick Hofstetter

walkway + small repairs

Had I known about this website earlier, I would have written this last fall. I have a large interlock driveway, stairs and a garden wall in the front. I wanted a walkway to the back replaced and a portion of the driveway lifted and re-laid. I was very pleased with the work and it turns out Rick did all the original interlock in 1989! The garden wall, in particular, looks like it was installed last year not 22 years ago.

I'm so glad that you found this site and were able to put down your thoughts, I thank you so much for the compliments and I'm glad to see you remembered us from 22 years earlier and that our work really does stand the test of time. I would expect nothing less, when it's done right, it's done right! I know you will get many more happy years out of it. Thanks again Rick Hofstetter

Interlocking stone, wood deck install

Rick and his team came to our home to do the interlocking deck in our backyard which included a retaining wall and a fire pit. We were so satisfied we had them to come back and put in a raised wood deck for our gazebo. His team was extremely professional, they kept everything clean and most importantly kept the neighbours happy. He met our very tight deadlines even with bad weather. He also helped us out with building a small wall to level out our playstructure. I would definitely recommend him and would use him again.

Thank you Marianne, I appreciate the kind words. Your job was one of the more interesting projects that we run into, it had a bit of everything, retaining walls, fire pit, electrical, seat walls, BBQ, patio, natural stone steps and so on, and all built on a slope. Really a lot of fun and a joy to build. I wish they were all like this. Thanks to you and Roy.....Rick Hofstetter

Patio

I hired Rick Hofstetter to do a side patio at my home. My house is and old red brick colour (not so attractive) and I couldn't find stone that I thought would suit. Rick came up with the brilliant idea of mixing a variety of colours and textures of stone with a main colour trim all around. It's perfect. Rick has a talent for design and his crew's work is outstanding. I recommend Rick highly.

Thank you for the recommendation and the kind words. I remember your home very well, you were down by the Scarborough Bluffs. As you mentioned, I mixed colours and textures for your patio. It's not too often that a customer will says " I don't know, just do what you think is best", and then you gave me complete control. At your house we used brand new brick that was left over from other jobs,over a several year period, several manufacturers, and several colours, and a lot of different textures and it came out great. All the boys got to play and have fun, we got rid of left over product, you got a unique patio and everybody won on this one. Thanks a lot for reminding me. Best wishes Rick Hofstetter

OWNERSHIP AND CREDENTIALS
Hofstetter Landscaping is owned and operated by Rick and Ashleigh Hofstetter. Our “baby” was born in 1989 and is now 23 years old. (In case you’re wondering how old we are...suffices to say we are evergreens. :-) Did we tell you we are a landscaping company?)
From the beginning, we have always endeavoured to do the best quality work possible for our clients. We specialize in landscaping and that’s one of the reasons our “baby” has no siblings—no sister companies, no associates, no partners, no branches. Landscaping is what we do and we do it really well.

A TORONTO LANDSCAPING COMPANY WITH A DIFFERENCE
Ever since we started, and even more so now, we find the market exploding with Toronto landscaping companies that make a big noise about “cheap, cheap”. Now, if they were selling birds, it would be okay, but they are not, right? And yet, we often lose a job to a cheap company that “specializes” in being a “Jack-of-all-trades”. Do we want to compete with them? No. But does that mean we are frightfully expensive? Not at all! In fact, our goal is always to ensure that our customers get the best value for money and a landscape that makes them the envy of the neighbourhood without breaking the bank.

As we come across customers who do their due diligence by comparing quotes, we are very mindful and respectful of the fact that one needs to be price conscious. It’s when we are told about a competitive quote that implies “the other guy” can get the job done for less than it costs us to buy quality materials, the alarm bells go off. He needs a hefty deposit from you to pay his guys for the last job done, and of course, there is always that famous curbside taillight guarantee!

We would like to go on and tell you what we have learned and found out in these past 23 years but you wouldn't be able to read it all...

WHY YOU SHOULD CHOOSE TO ENGAGE OUR LANDSCAPING SERVICES IN TORONTO

All we want to say is this—we do top quality work with a guarantee you can count on, every single time. If it’s not to your liking we'll do what it takes to make it right. We'll be there in years to come, particularly if the weather has given the work a beating.
