Reviews of RAINscapeTO (Gardener)

Sean Dempsey

Jose and team did a great job taming our back-yard/front-yard jungle. Rainscape did the work quickly and professionally. And I love that they use and maintain all natural and local materials and support indigenous youth with meaningful employment. We will definitely have Rainscape back in the future.

Rainscape did a wonderful job transforming my front yard into a lovely space for us and folks walking along our busy street to enjoy. The gardening crew Rahel, Janet, Robyn and Avalon were an absolute pleasure to be around - they worked incredibly hard and had a wonderful energy. José's design work pulled together a wide selection of native plants to suit the space, which have provided a succession of colour and foliage over the last two months and attracted many butterflies and bees. And on rainy days we get the treat of watching our beautiful new rain chain in action! Many people walking by have commented on how beautiful the garden is, and it's still early days - by next summer it will have filled in much more. I'm so happy to support Rainscape's social enterprise work, especially with their focus on young indigenous adults and sustainability, and would recommend them to anyone. Thank you Rainscape!

Jose and his team transformed my front lawn into a beautiful rain and pollinator garden with over 40 different native and butterfly friendly plants. Lots of people walking the neighborhood stop and admire it. I couldn't be more pleased with the result. They were prompt, responsive, fast, and professional. Highly recommended.

As a supplier I have had a positive experience working with Jose. Business dealings were professional. Definitely would work with Jose again and I believe his customers are in good hands.

Proactive on work, and 5/5 for communications every step of the way. We will be using them again next year.

I reached out to the Rainscape team to consult about removing the front lawn and adding native plants to create a garden. I didn't know where to start on my own, but reaching out to them was the best thing! They are very knowledgeable, professional and friendly. They understood the constraints of the space, my needs and budget, creating a feasible plan for my new garden. I also learned a lot about water conservation and native plants in the process! I would completely recommend Rainscape to anyone.

We have a small front yard and it looked like a total disaster until Jose and his team helped us create an urban oasis. Many in the neighborhood has stopped by to admire the transformation. We are so grateful for their help. They were responsive to our input and completed the project promptly and on-time as promised. Also, there's no hidden fees. High recommend their service!

We had a garden consultation with RAINscapeTO and they suggested novel ways in which we could slow rain water down in our front yard to keep it from rushing off with our soil every time it rained. They were knowledgeable and helpful and we would definitely use their services again.

The Rainscape team cleared out a jungle of overgrowth in our back yard - through the heatwaves - and left a wonderful blank canvas of clear, mulched space for them to come back and plant. Lovely group of gardners, very knowledgeable and dedicated. We are looking forward to their garden design to happen - !

RAINscape did such a great job! They are really knowledgable, friendly and responsive. Would hire again anytime, especially as it's a social enterprise.

RAINscapeTO has planted my entire front and back yard with Ontario native perennials, and I'm extremely happy about the results. The design phase was very effective a I prepared a Google Slides document with pictures of the site and they advised about species suitable for each spot. Installation was done on time, with a team of 4, finishing the project in just a few days. During installation, I discussed specifics with the on-site team lead, Mary Jenkins, who was extremely knowledgeable and had great initiatives about reusing existing elements and adjusting the planting plan to on-site realities. The entire team was efficient, professional and friendly. They were also very careful to avoid damaging the existing plants that I wanted to preserve.

Working with RAINscape was a great experience. They were on time and on budget. The team made sure to incorporate our vision of the yard and execute that vision. We really liked their focus on waste reduction, and attention to the local environment. It was lovely with them.

Wow, I couldn't more highly recommend RAINscapeTO! Jose was incredibly detailed, communicative and friendly in our exchanges before beginning the project and made us feel that we were in good hands right from the get-go. I can't describe just how amazing it is to find a team of people who are genuinely on the same page and who are willing to work with you to create not only a beautiful but an environmentally-conscious design. Rahel, Avalon, Janet, and Robyn are really a dream team - our front yard was a mess of sod and sad-looking shrubs, and they completely transformed it into a vibrant pollinator haven. We are still so amazed by how quickly it all came together and how incredible it looks - even while (temporarily) covered with a thick layer of mulch! It's a joy to see all the bees, butterflies are birds that are flying about pollinating and making use of this mini oasis. We can't wait to see our garden grow and mature. Thank you SO much RAINscapeTO team - your work, knowledge and genuine respect for the natural world are very much appreciated!
