I've worked with Erik on various landscaping or woodwork related projects since 2004. I was…read moreimpressed by his skills, experience and knowledge way back in 2004 and nearly 20 years later he's continued to just keep getting better. His skill set is extensive, with a solid background in plants, ecology, drafting, various aspects of landscape installations. He's one of the best carpenters I've worked with, having both a creative artistic eye as well as solid construction skills. Erik sees the 'big picture' of an overall landscape project but also pays close attention to the details that make it great. He's professional and personable, great to communicate with, and I would trust him on any of my projects.

We had some problems with the fence that Peter Hardie had built for us. We had to call many times…read morebefore he had someone come and fix it. The work was not finished and he has never returned. That is not the way I would expect someone like him to run a business. I would not recommend any of his businesses: Island Garden Pro Landscaping and The Fence Fixers. If you do, inspect it carefully and do not pay until you are satisfied with the work.

We hired Peter in July 20 2017 to cut blackberry bushes and spray them with Round up in Central…read moreNanaimo area, BC. The cutting part of the job was done in a week, with a moderate accomplishment. We spend a few more hours cutting what was left with a machete. Also, the cut bushes were left on the property. Peter sent us an invoice for the whole scope of work and 2 days later demanded the payment, and we paid it in full. The spraying part of the job was supposed to follow the cutting in 2 weeks, but after our repetitive reminders and either ignoring our emails or giving endless promises (7 of them), Peter spayed the area on November 22, almost 4 months later, under a pouring rain, which makes the job useless. When we confronted him he promised to repeat the job in the spring, and after 14(!) additional emails back and forth (over a 5 months period starting in April 2018) and at least 5 promises to come "next week" and finalize the job, he just disappeared. The property is tenanted, and every time Peter promised to come we needed to contact tenants to notify them. He is claiming his business's "Reliability, attention to detail & good customer service ". These 3 things are the ones that are missing in his service. There was no reliability, no honesty on Peter's side, just poor, disrespectful and very sarcastic customer service. Stay away!
