Report
We have had two projects completed by Tim Meijs and Gardens of Prestige. First was interlocking Permacon concrete slabs sidewalks and front patio. The second was hard servicing of the driveway also with Permacon interlock. We are completely satisfied with the work on both projects and have received several compliments on the work. Devon and his crew did both projects and were always friendly, courteous and willing to answer questions and to respond to any concerns and to offer suggestions based on their experience. They were meticulous in the preparation, compacting, laying and cutting of the stones

Fairly ok work, maybe worth 3.5 stars but a bit of a shady feel to how they bill for materials and if you dare question the work, the owner just blames anything and everything else without even coming our to verify. Having worked in the industry, I likely caught more than some others who would rate them higher. I had just broken my leg before they started and was pretty loopy or I would have been on them a lot more. Wrong supports and no stone put in under deck they were to level. Didn't pack the earth at all and it all washed away around their work. No drainage put in behind the wall, in fact

From pencil, to paper, to perfection...this was how the talented team of Gardens of Prestige executed the backyard of our dreams. Tim Meijs, the president of this company, really listened to our ideas and shaped them into a plan that would make the backyard an extension of our living space. From start to finish, there was constant communication and feedback and we discussed ideas that would work with our family dynamics. We also cant say enough of his work crew, whom we got to know very well over the course of the project. Jen and Emma are very skilled at their craft, and these ladies rock!

Tim and his crew did a very large project for us including 2 stone patios with multiple steps, a firepit and landscaping over an acre of property on the lake. It his turned out to be spectacular - we have had many comments from neighbors passing by. Tim and his crew were a delight to work with - very professional, understanding and accomadating. I would recommend them to anyone who values a quality job.
