Landscaping & Lawn Care
Richmond landscaping contractor based off Horseshoe Way, looking after residential, commercial and strata grounds. Services run from lawn care, hedge trimming and tree pruning to seasonal flower displays, irrigation checks, power washing and winter salting.
Soft delta soil sets the terms for every yard in this city. Richmond sits at or near sea level, drainage is a constant negotiation, and a wet winter can turn a lawn into something closer to a bog. Get Growing Landscaping works out of Horseshoe Way, looking after residential, commercial and strata grounds, covering lawn care, hedge trimming and tree pruning along with seasonal planting, irrigation checks, power washing and winter salting.
Strata work is the part that matters most here. An enormous share of Richmond housing is townhouse and apartment strata, which means grounds maintenance is usually a contract decision made by a council rather than a homeowner deciding to tidy a hedge. Those contracts run year round and cover the unglamorous items: gutters cleared before the November rain, salt down when a cold snap arrives, irrigation checked before summer watering restrictions bite. A contractor offering the shoulder-season work is more useful than one that only turns up to mow.
The Horseshoe Way base puts the company in Ironwood, in the industrial pocket near the south arm of the Fraser where the yards, trade counters and equipment shops in this city tend to sit. That is a base of operations rather than somewhere you visit. For anything ongoing, get the scope in writing and be specific about what is included and how often, since the arguments in this trade are rarely about quality of work and almost always about what somebody assumed was covered.
In the Ironwood neighbourhood of Richmond.

The Night Market's final season is the loud story. The quieter one: free admission at the Cannery ends Monday, Britannia keeps summer hours through Sunday, and Steveston does sunsets better than anyone.

Nothing on Alexandra Road is a secret. It is just in a strip mall with bad signage and no patio, which is why visitors never find it. Here is how I actually use Richmond's plazas and food courts, which specialists are worth the drive, and when not to bother.

The West Dyke Trail is about five and a half kilometres of flat gravel between Terra Nova Rural Park and Garry Point, and I ride it most mornings. Here is what is actually at the north end, which way to walk so the wind is on your side, and why winter is the better season for it.
