We began in the Martingrove and Burnhamthorpe area, two brothers pushing a lawn mower door to door looking for landscaping customers, under the name “Mortimer Brothers Landscaping” back in 1998. Shortly after its conception my brother moved on to another business venture and the business became “Mortimer Landscaping”.
Today, under the name “Mortimer Lawn and Garden”, we service over one hundred lawns seasonally as well as taking on several large backyard construction jobs every year. Our clients call us for everything from putting up their Christmas lights and storm windows to tearing out their old decks which we replace with new patios. We are a professional and dependable company. This is reflected in our clients dedication to us. Most of our current business was received through word of mouth. Our clients are always happy to refer us to their friends and families. Several of our current clients are the same people that took a chance that first season and hired a pair of brothers who were pushing a lawn mower down the street. |

Mike An associate that has been around with us since the beginning and able to handle the toughest jobs that we see. Born and raised in the westend of Toronto he knows all of the in and outs of the lawns and gardens of Etobicoke. Mike is always happy to take the time to chat about your lawncare needs, music, politics or anything else that comes to mind, we just prefer if it's done after the work is completed.

A great guy to have on the crew as he is always upbeat and his jokes make time go by faster.
