## About
Breakaway Landscaping and Snow Removal was opened in 2006 to provide high quality landscape maintenance service to industrial, residential and commercial customers. After nearly 20 years in the corporate world and being raised on a golf course, founder Steve Suter wanted to enter an industry were he could service an ongoing customer base and continue to build relationships through repeat business. The landscape maintenance business has provided that platform. Over the past few years the business has grown and services an ever expanding customer list. We provide service in every area of landscape maintenance. Founded in Mississauga, we currently service customers in Brampton, Etobicoke, Oakville, Burlington and Mississauga. We are completely insured and WSIB compliant. Breakaway Landscaping is a proud member of Landscape Ontario

## Before you hire a landscaper
_What to check when choosing this kind of trade (general guidance, not a claim about this business):_
- Get an itemized quote that separates plants and materials, any machinery or skip hire, and labour. A vague 'garden makeover' lump sum hides where the money goes and makes extra charges easy to add later.
- Be wary of paying a large sum up front 'for materials'. Agree staged payments against work you can see completed, especially for hard landscaping like patios, decking, paving or driveways.
- Tree work and anything near a boundary can be regulated. Protected trees and conservation areas often need permission, and removing a protected tree can be an offence. Confirm what is allowed, and that they carry public-liability insurance, before work starts.
- Trade licensing in Canada is set by each province or territory. Electrical, gas and plumbing are licensed trades almost everywhere (for example ESA for electrical and TSSA for gas in Ontario), so check your provincial regulator that the contractor is certified for the work before you hire.
- A construction lien is a real risk: in every province an unpaid subcontractor or supplier can register a lien against your home even if you already paid the main contractor. Hold back the statutory amount (commonly around 10%) and get signed lien waivers as you pay.
