Patio Renovation

I just wanted to take a moment to thank you and your staff for the outstanding work you did renovating our patio.
Your ideas were helpful, the quote was accurate, the selection and design process was smooth, and your staff was good enough to adapt to our ideas when the installation date arrived.
The project was on time, on budget and, most importantly, it looks terrific.
This is the third occasion that I have hired your services, and I am pleased to recommend your firm.

Best Regards,
Neil Rachynski

With my payment for pruning I must send along my thanks to the couple who did the job. They were pleasant and considerate, clean up done to perfection and my yard looks great! I've always thought the staff at Lyons was the best - this only confirms 1t.

I would like you to know that I am very pleased with my "new back garden". Kim and the crew have done a great job, in fact Kim came up with several ideas that made it look even better than my original plan had been.

Thank you

Just wanted to thank you for the terrific job that Kim and the 2 guys did this week. All 3 of them were just great. You've got a great group there. The hillside looks perfect with nice little touches. We couldn't be happier. You'll hear from us again for some work on the other side of the lot.
Have a great summer.

We are so thrilled with the work that Chad and Mike did in our backyard. My first word when I cam home to view my patio was "WOW". I cannot thank Lyons and these young men enough for the work they did. Their love for what they do is very apparent as each day they showed up with smiles on their faces: ready to get 'r done. I will be spreading the word about the excellent service and superior quality of work we received from Lyons. I recommend them for any landscaping project.

Merry Christmas Colin and Lyons Staff

I wanted to say Thank you and to Colin, you work with some of the greatest people :)

My Objective this morning was to adopt the Christmas tree that no one wanted. What I got was a great story.

I woke up this wonderful am in the dark like most Canadians. To my cat biting me to be fed and the dog barking to go out side. For some reason today they conspired to wake me up at 5:30 am..."Ugg, I wonder if their is a kid in the neighborhood who wants a new pet for Christmas?". Feed cat, let dog out and off to make coffee to realize I am out. "It is going to be one of those days". Settle for hot chocolate...yumm. Run around the house tackling the usual morning stuff; load dishwasher, feed dog, harass kids, my hair etc etc. All to the sound track of Rock radio and bad Christmas songs.

Time to run out the door to an appointment. Now I drive a '91 Jeep Yj, nick name Bebe', that has really no heat. As I am trying to execute the endeavor of scrapping windows, I slip very unceremoniously and land flat on my Butt with an audience. "Nice, it is one of those days". With a wardrobe change and I am off to discover that my appointment was canceled. "Sigh, this is getting to be fun." I decide to head down to your establishment to see if you have any trees left.

I was greeted by a very nice man and helped by another very nice man. To discover you have no live cut trees ( btw Is it just me or is 'live cut tree' an oxymoron?) Hmmm, I could buy a live tree for the price of a fake one. I choose a live potted one. Bebe', has carted a many an unusual thing this year so far. Including a 1 year old bear. Boo boo, thought it would be a great place to nap after destroying our food supply while camping this summer.

So here we are trying to fit a potted tree, Fat Albert, into the jeep. I happy to say it was accomplished but my door wouldn't stay closed. The latch on the door was jammed, "oh for crying out loud not another one" Earlier this week my back door on the jeep did the same thing and was held closed by bungee cord. "Sweet it really is one of those days." We wrestle with it for a few moments and gentle man A decide he would see if gentleman B could do something.

My hero! not only did he fix the door he also fixed the back door too :)

So here I thought my day went sideways. To have not a Charlie brown tree but a beautiful tree that I will be able to plant in my back yard and watch it grow and Bebe' is not broken!

One live Christmas tree, fixed jeep doors, a hug, don't have to buy a pine air fresher, and a great story...
All in all my experience, was Priceless.

Thank you for turning my morning around and making it the best, Merry Christmas and all the best in the New Year

Hope you get a kick out of my story

Good morning Rick

As you know, Fay and I walk at 7:00 a.m. every weekday morning. We just wanted to let you know how much we appreciate the great job the crew does in keeping the sidewalks and paths clear of snow & ice. Please pass on our thanks to those responsible.

Cheers

Thanks Rex for your guys work on this. I'll pass it along to Darren from Lyons as well. We had to pick up the sidewalk cleaning last week after Karri pointed out some stuff with the application of Mag but I believe it has been good since then.

On last nights issue, the RCMP asked for us to open the second entrance into the subdivision by the maintenance building. I phoned Darren to assist with some clean up and laying of sand, and there was a Lyons truck on site in 15 minutes.

I have found that consistently when I ask Lyons to attend they are there in short order and I appreciate their abilities to provide the services as quickly as they do.

Hi Colin,

I want to thank Scott and Neil for doing such an amazing job fixing my irrigation problem. They were so friendly and professional. After they fixed the enormous mess, you would never had know they were even there. The level of professional service I will be recomending to everyone.

Thanks again.

Colin...

Just happily paid my bill for the lovely front yard I now have. Karla and her crew were a delight to work with. Scott and companion were by yesterday because I discovered a leak in the line going to the back yard (to be installed next year).

In other words, service has been terrific.

Thanks,

Hi Colin and staff, just a short note to recognize the fantastic service I received from one of your garden center employees a couple of weeks ago. I was in need of a number of bags of some rock and mulch to finish a project and while loading the bulk product was offered help by a young man named Jacob. Knowing these items are to be self loaded by the customer he insisted on lending a helping hand and made the task of bagging and loading my truck so much easier. It is refreshing to see a young man like Jacob willing to go the extra mile to help a customer. I trust you will thank him again for me and let him know his hard work and dedication doesn't go unnoticed.

Best regards,

Hi Darren,

Just a few lines to say a huge thank you. Lyon's crew started exactly on time and finished quicker than you estimated. They were helpful and very courteous. Once they had finished, our work started and again Lyon's scored 110% by delivering all different types of rock to fit with our schedule. This meant from start to beautiful finish in 4 days!

Absolutely Awesome!!!

Thank you so much

Last year my wife and I built our first home here in Kamloops. Nearing our completion we soon realized that a lower retaining wall was required on our property. To do the job, we hired Lyons Landscaping, who put in an Allen Block Wall. Once the wall was completed, that side of the house was used as a corridor for machinery to gain access to our backyard. Unfortunately, all the machinery, combined with other factors, began to shift the wall.

I called Colin Lyons approximately a year after the wall was installed and asked for his opinion. Colin came to our house that same day and basically told us the wall had to be rebuilt. Colin then had his crew come to our house on short notice that very same week and had the wall rebuilt. That in itself impressed my wife and I but when Colin stated there were no additional costs, we were really surprised. Not only did Lyons Landscaping rebuild a retaining wall on short notice, but they honoured their work and took great respect in maintaining their reputation in Kamloops as the #1 Landscaper.

We would recommend Lyons Landscaping for anyone who requires top notch service!
