Tazscapes Inc. Calgary Landscaping - Calgary, Alberta

We had the pleasure of working with Tazscapes on our backyard project. We wanted our entire backyard redone. This involves demolition of everything (wooden deck, grass, shrubs) and we started with a brand new slate. Taz was awesome at designing a fantastic new backyard. He worked with us to make sure his design encompassed everything we wanted. His crew was a pleasure to work with! They left the worksite immaculate every day (no garbage or debris left, no tools haphazardly left around). Even the neighbours commented on how neat and tidy the project was. They were very efficient and did a top notch job. They were very particular with details (one day the wood that had been delivered for the deck framing wasn’t to their liking so they took the time to replace it with pieces that were of better quality). They were able to customise our privacy fence to our exact liking right on the spot. I was amazed at the level of detail that went into the stone pad - right from the number of base layers that it took down to the solid fill between the slabs to ensure they don’t move and are level.

We waited several years after we bought the house to create the backyard of our dreams. With Taz’s help we now have the backyard we have always wanted!

From our initial online inquiry to completion of the project Taz and his team were outstanding. Project design went well as Taz did a great job working our ideas into his final design. Construction started early and finished ahead of schedule and on budget! We are thrilled with our backyard and are looking forward to enjoying it for years to come.

We do not hesitate in recommending Tazscapes!

We are very happy with our landscaping. Taz/ Tazscapes worked with us professionally right from the start, to design a space to meet our wants and optimize the area. The design and construction process were smooth & well planned. Taz, Lewis & their construction crew did incredible work, and executed the project with no stress to us. We are very comfortable recommending them.

We had the opportunity to work with Tazscapes and couldn't say enough good things about our experience.
We actually met Taz a couple of years back and he came over to take a look at our yard and give us sound advice and just give us overall perspective about how we should go about tackling the project. At the time we weren't ready to move forward but last year we contacted him again and decided it was time to take the plunge!
Taz was extremely patient with us throughout the process; He started by presenting a professional landscape design for us detailing everything, then promptly following that up with a quote that broke everything down. Throughout the whole process, any questions we had or issues we thought might be presented, he was easy to contact and put our minds at ease.
His knowledge, professionalism and impeccable customer service was everything we needed to start such a big project.
During the landscaping construction, he put me in contact with his construction manager and site foreman who were extremely knowledgeable and seeing them work every day gave us the utmost confidence that the project would go smoothly. Easy to communicate with and backed by detailed workmanship, Tazscapes and his team took this landscaping project to another level and gave us the yard we have been wanting for years!
I can't say enough good things about Taz and his team. They are the best landscaping company in Calgary - from design to construction workmanship, backed by amazing customer service, Taz went above and beyond for us and we couldn't have been happier with our experience!
Don't waste your time wondering with other landscaping contractors; Give Taz a call and let him handle the whole project, you're in good hands!
A big thanks to Tazscapes and his team! Keep up the great work

Tazscapes provided a comprehensive service, from design to full completion of the project. Taz was very easy to contact at all times and the work was finished very quickly. Nick and his team were clearly skilled and experienced. I am very happy with the final result, which has transformed a small inner city backyard.

My wife and I built our home in the community of Symon’s Gate, in Calgary’s Northwest in 2015, and moved into it in early 2016. Like most new builds, we did not have a lot of yard space to work with and it sat mostly undisturbed for six years while we bided our time, saved our money, and designed meticulously. We wanted something practical that optimized the space we have for entertaining, relaxation, and occasional outdoor exercise. All this with a unique aesthetic that represented our life together.

The pandemic and the need for more comfortable outdoor gathering space convinced us that 2021 was our year, but we were still not sold on the landscaping companies we’d received quotes from thus far. That’s when my smart and beautiful wife came across Tazscapes online. Reviews were consistently outstanding, and it was clear through promotional material that Tazscapes offered the level of artistry we were waiting for, so we gave Tazscapes a call.

Taz came to our home to get a sense of our property and our vision for it. He presented as competent, professional, and forthright, which gave us confidence in him. He listened to us thoroughly and I could tell he understood what we were after. He asked our budget and while it was within the realm of what he thought it might cost, he was straightforward with us about what we’d pay for what we’re asking. We handed him the Real Property Report and transferred the money necessary to begin the design.

About a week later the design was in. While fantastic right out of the gate, we worked with Taz to further personalize it to our wishes, going back and forth on details for a week. Once the design was complete and we were comfortable with the price, we gave him the green light to book us. To our surprise, Taz’s team started a week earlier than scheduled, though due to the pandemic and supply issues, our stone fireplace was backordered for late August.

Taz’s Site Foreman, Nick stopped by the day before breaking ground to meet us and check out the yard. While relatively young, Nick has the experience, temperament, and skills to lead his team well. Nick was responsive to all our requests, even when we asked him if we could purchase and plant two additional aspen trees in our front yard, creating another trip for him and probably disrupting his schedule. He seemed as committed to making our outdoor space amazing as Taz was, and he held our confidence throughout.

No project of this scope proceeds without some adjustments and additions, and we requested a few additional features, such as a wood border to retain the rundle rock on one side of our home, one additional step paver, one more outdoor light, the additional trees, and others. Neither Taz nor Nick balked at any of our requests. Taz is remarkably responsive to his clients and tends to reply within minutes, despite the number of clients he manages. The whole project went smoothly and by the time the early July heatwave was upon us, we were chillin’ on the patio.

We are IN LOVE with the final product. It turned out BETTER than we had hoped, and the process was painless. I’m still working from home with a good view of the yard from my home office. We have a walking path behind our yard, and I’ve had numerous passersby comment on its beauty, ask for Taz’s contact information, and exclaim, “awww, I want one!” Even when I’m inside my house I see heads turn and eyes lock on our yard as people walk by. There’s nothing like it in our neighbourhood.

Now, I’ll be both clear and honest. Taz’s services are not cheap. He’s the real deal, he’s in demand, and he has the luxury of being selective with his clients and projects. Therein exists an implied agreement. The client is reasonable, decisive, and pays what and when they’re supposed to. In exchange, Taz will design, coordinate, and deliver an outstanding final product with accountability, professionalism, and an artist’s touch. If you can abide by the implied agreement, then he’s likely the Landscape Pro for you. In sum, we highly recommend Tazscapes for your landscaping needs!

We had been waiting a long time to get our dream backyard, and Taz with Tazscapes Inc. delivered!

We interviewed a few different landscape companies and when we met Taz we knew he was our guy. He listened to what we wanted, communicated well, was very honest in terms of expectations and costs and most of all, he is very experienced and knowledgeable. Throughout the entire process Taz was always very responsive, on time, and involved in all aspects of the project. He made us feel very comfortable in trusting our backyard to him.

In the design process, Taz sat down with us to understand what we wanted, how we were going to use the space and offered up wonderful ideas to incorporate into the design. When Taz returned with the design, we were thrilled. It was exactly want we wanted and what we had envisioned. We were so excited to get the project underway.

The construction started on time with Taz’s team. Lewis, Nick and the rest of the crew worked diligently to get the project completed based on the design plan. They were in constant communication with us to ensure there were no surprises and any issues were discussed and dealt with immediately, ensuring everything was completed to our satisfaction. They were a pleasure to work with, very professional, worked hard and cleaned up the worksite every day! Taz remained closely involved in the project oversight to ensure everything was moving along as expected. Taz brought in experienced subcontractors as needed to complete specific aspects of the project - like the beautiful water features installed by Kevin from Water By Design. Every detail in the entire project was executed with care, quality and expertise by all involved.

Our yard was completed on time in June, despite some unusual weather conditions, and we were lucky to spend the summer and fall enjoying it. We were very happy with everything - top quality: products, workmanship, tress/shrubs/plants and customer service. Taz you are amazing! Thank you for giving us a beautiful backyard that we can enjoy for many years to come, both day and night thanks to the added light package! We couldn’t be more pleased.

We would highly recommend working with Taz at Tazscapes Inc.

Our experience with Tazscapes was wonderful. We searched online for a landscape designer who matched our aesthetic and found that on Taz's website. After reaching out to him (which was always easy to do), we met for an initial meeting where we discussed ideas we had and he had a chance to see our backyard. This was his opportunity to understand our desires as clients, the space he had to work with, and a general idea of our budget. He showed us photographs of other projects and even took us to a former project that was similar in size and scope. Initially, we asked him to come up with a design and paid him for that. We were very happy with that and so decided to go ahead and hire him to bring that design to life. The entire project went very well and Taz was always available to us to help make decisions and solve problems. The entire crew were excellent to deal with and in their craftsmanship. From start to finish, we were well taken care of and very happy with the final results. I will definitely work with Taz again for future projects and highly recommend Tazscapes to anyone looking for top-notch work.
