Darrell and his team did a phenomenal job landscaping our backyard patio area. We worked with Darrell on a few designs to make our backyard space functional. He was always available to run through any questions or concerns that we had and guided us through the design, stone selection and final details, which made the whole process very enjoyable. His team was wonderful, friendly and knowledgeable and they always made sure the site was cleaned up before leaving for the day. We are extremely happy with the work and will be using Red Bear for future projects.

We worked with Darrell to come up with a design to upgrade our front entryway, new step and porch with paverstone. Darrell was awesome to deal with and was very knowledgeable. His crew was hardworking and very professional and did an impeccable job. We will absolutely use Red Bear Landscaping again and highly recommend them.

Couldnt be happier with our backyard overhaul, stone patio and putting green installation. Darrell and the team at Red Bear are incredibly responsive and do an incredible job of walking you through the decisions every step of the way. Cant recommend them highly enough. Looking forward to some amazing family time and shaving a few strokes of our golf games with our new oasis.

My family used Red Bear for landscaping services for our front and backyard in Fall 2020. The team was very professional, provided detailed drawings and their quote was reasonable. The guys that came out were very friendly and took the time to answer our questions. Great experience all round and would highly recommend them!

Our experience with Red Bear was extremely positive. Darrell listened to our basic ideas and added his creativity resulting in such impressive stonework and landscaping that not only friends and neighbours but also strangers driving by stop to tell us how beautiful our yard looks. All projects were completed on budget with no surprises. We would highly recommend Darrell and the Red Bear team.

The Red Bear team members were efficient, polite, and professional. They cleaned-up the yard when finished and the end result was perfectly completed. When we book our next project, we will only use Red Bear.
