Sam and his crew were absolutely fantastic to work with! From start to finish, they were professional, responsive, and genuinely invested in doing the job right. As first-time homeowners, we didn’t know much about retaining walls or the permitting process, and Sam took the time to walk us through every step. He was a great advocate when working with the city and kept us informed and educated along the way.

Although the permitting process itself took several months (as these things often do), the actual build of the wall was impressively efficient — only a few weeks from start to finish. Our yard required significant excavation because of the clay soil, but the crew handled it with skill and care, working seamlessly with a local engineer to make sure everything was up to code.

We couldn’t be happier with the final result. The new Allan Block wall not only looks beautiful but gives us real peace of mind knowing it’s safe and built to last. We’re so grateful for the professionalism, expertise, and integrity Sam and his team brought to this project — we’d recommend Back40 Landscaping without hesitation

We had a great experience working with Sam and Natasha, both professional and pleasant to work with. Our project was complex and required a lot of planing, including engineering and permitting. Sam stayed on top of it all and, with his team, built a fantastic wall we have no doubt will stand the test of time. Highly recommended!

Geoff Hughes-Games on Back 40 Landscaping

Sam and his crew did a fantastic job installing our patio and garden wall. Communication before, during and after the project was excellent. From our initial phone consultation with Natasha, right through to the post- construction clean-up, the entire process was very professional.

Sam and Natasha provided helpful suggestions for materials to use for our project, and once on site Sam had good design recommendations. Everything was very well organized, the site was kept as tidy as possible, and Sam and his crew were very hard working and efficient.

The project was completed on time and on budget, with excellent workmanship.

We love our new outdoor space. Thank-you Sam & Natasha

Jordan Carriere on Back 40 Landscaping

We hired Sam to build a retaining wall. When we first met with Sam, he was very knowledgeable in all facets of the excavation process and Allan block installation. He gave us a quote for what we were looking for and was able to complete all the work in the budget that we gave him. He also went above and beyond with some extra reinforcement material for our wall. It was a smooth process and a pleasure to work with Sam and his wife Natasha. Sam also leveled our front yard, added new soil, removed some old plants from our garden and got us a great deal on new sod to lay down. I would absolutely recommend Back40 Landscaping for any of your retaining wall or landscaping needs.
