Your Home & Property Can Be the Envy of your Neighborhood…
And you won't even have to break a sweat…
With professional landscape & property maintenance services
From GreenScape.ca
Picture a lush, weed-free lawn, a perfectly nurtured garden, and everything on your property clean, bright and in good repair.
Truth be told, nothing about that picture is natural, yet we tend to embrace that orderliness – feeling discomfort when things aren’t ‘just so…’
Since the dawn of time, we’ve struggled
To create order in Nature’s seeming chaos
We crave walking barefoot in deep, dew-covered grass, and we admire the perfect, well-maintained garden, fence or pergola.
We’ve lived in, looked at, and been awe-struck by natural, untouched landscapes and native plant life since mankind took its first steps… so, while changing, controlling, creating balance or symmetry in it shouldn’t be in our genes – it sure seems to be.
Maintaining all that order takes effort…
Keeping everything looking ‘just so’ can take lots time, effort and commitment,
and means doing battle against entropy, as everything tries to return to its original state…
So, how can you deal with these natural processes?
A well-cared for landscape can be an uplifting and welcome sight to come home to… and it can increase your property value, too.
With consistent, on-going attention, your home, your property, and your lawn & gardens, and a landscape and property maintenance company can be your secret weapon to help you with these never-ending chores…
Having professionals take care of your home and landscape is a growing trend…
A trend with many benefits. Increasingly, homeowners – like you – are recognizing the expertise and advantages landscape and property maintenance company offers.
So, if having and maintaining a beautiful home and property is important to you, consider the benefits of having a property maintenance company help you achieve it…

A well-maintained landscape and property…
• Prevents erosion – And protects your topsoil, meaning less mud and dust in your home.
• Improves the salability and resale value of your home – Creating strong curb appeal – which
includes attractive lawn, gardens & landscaping and a well-maintained home – can add as
much as 15% or more to its resale value.
In fact the ‘investment recovery' rate can be as high as 100-200% for landscape improvements,
40-70% for a deck or patio, while a sprinkler system can add an additional 8-10% to the resale
value of your home.
• Increases your free time – Having a professional care for your home and property gives you
more time for leisure activities.
• Finally, there’s the convenience – Sometimes it’s nice just to relax in the comfort of knowing
your property is being professionally tended to. And if you need to be away for more than a few
days, you have investment properties or more than one residence, you simply won’t have to
worry about them while you’re away.
A well-maintained, healthy lawn…
• Purifies water from all sources – The grass root mass and soil microbes act as a water filter
to capture and break down many types of pollutants before they get into underground aquifers.
• Improves air quality – A healthy, well-maintained lawn of only 
2,500 square feet (approximately
232 square meters) creates enough
oxygen to meet the needs of a family of
four each day, and absorbs airborne
pollutants like dust, dirt, soot and
carbon dioxide, to name just a few.
• Cools your property – The healthy front
lawns of eight average homes have the
cooling effect of about 70 tons of air
conditioning – enough to cool 16
average homes.
On a hot day, your lawn can be 10 to
14° F (approximately 5.5 to 7.75” C)
cooler than exposed soil or patchy areas, and as much as 30” F (approximately 16.5” C) cooler than
the sidewalk or street.
• Reduces runoff – Lawns help return moisture to our water tables where it can be used again.
Studies show a healthy lawn absorbs rainfall 4 to 6 times more effectively than farm fields,
and only virgin forests absorb more.

Your landscape and property maintenance professional
does the ‘heavy lifting’ for you…
By keeping your lawn properly cut, healthy and green, your gardens colorful and lush, and your property and home in good repair it lets you enjoy the benefits of a beautiful property without having to do the work… a few less things to worry about!
Of course there’s a reasonable cost for having a professional do the work… but the joy of knowing you’ll come home to a beautiful, well-kept property every day… is priceless!
Here are just a few more of the benefits of having a property maintenance company help you with your lawn, gardens, fences, and more. A professional property maintenance company offers you…
• Service – It’s a convenient way for you to have an attractive, above average home, lawn and property,
with few of the responsibilities you’ve been shouldering.
• Expertise – Because a lawn care professional should understand how plants grow, how to deal with
pests and critters, how things work, and what it takes to achieve and maintain an attractive home and
property, you’ll be getting the benefit of their experience as well as the expertise they provide.
• Simplicity – You can leave the confusing task of choosing and using the right products, approaches,
tools and techniques to a professional.
You can also avoid having to own spreaders, sprayers, specialized tools and equipment, and the
hassle of storing and maintaining them.
• Risk reduction – Since even organic products, paints, fuel, etc. should be stored in a locked, water-
proof and ventilated area, letting a professional take responsibility eliminates the risk and liability
of improper storage.
• Safety – The possible environmental (and even health) risks of an inexperienced homeowner using
products or tools in ways and amounts they weren’t intended can be significant. A professional
knows what to use, as well as when and how to use it.
• Professional strength – Professionals can use approaches, tools and techniques not typically
available to homeowners, meaning they can resolve most lawn, garden, repair and maintenance
issues more quickly and more efficiently than you.
A true professional property maintenance company will go beyond just taking over those maintenance and home improvement jobs you don’t want to do.
They’ll want to encourage a long-term, working partnership with you – to create a property you’ll enjoy and be proud of – for as long as you own it. In fact, they should clearly be proud of their work and be excited at the opportunity of working with folks who appreciate the value of professional service… and a really great looking home and landscape.
On clearing snow (available only for Barrhaven & Country Place)…
Snow clearing should be more than just a guy (or gal), with a truck and a cell phone. Especially if you want your landscape features, your sprinkler system, curbs, etc. to survive the Winter intact.
Operators who are careless about where they drop their blades, where and how they push and pile snow expose your property to the risk of damaged curbing, and other, serious repair issues.
Only use a contractor who recognizes the value of belonging to the Snow & Ice Management Association (SIMA), demonstrating their commitment to environmentally responsibility.
The GreenScape.ca snow standard is to use snow blowers, rather than plows. That way we can put the snow where we want it, as we work, rather than having to come back in mid-winter to truck away the snow banks that plowing leaves behind.
It's much easier on your walks, lawn, gardens and walls, too.
