Excellence at Work for Your Commercial Property: Quality Meets Consistency
For commercial property owners and managers, quality work isn’t a “nice to have” it’s a must. When landscaping is overlooked or snow isn’t cleared on time, tenants notice. Complaints rise. Safety risks increase. And reputations suffer.
But finding a partner who delivers consistent, high-quality service across seasons and regions can be a challenge. Promises are easy. Follow-through is rare. That’s why clients choose Strathmore.
We’ve built a reputation on doing the job right, the first time — not just once, but season after season. For us, Excellent Work is more than execution. It’s a commitment to consistency, professionalism, and accountability across every property we serve. That’s because we set our standards well above the industry benchmarks.
“The grounds at Consilium are spectacular and vibrant with colours throughout all three seasons. The tenants love the transformation of the gardens since Strathmore has taken over the contract. They feel they are working at a resort with the look of the grounds. All potential new tenants that arrive are in awe and look forward to working here. Many tenant employees walk the grounds each day just to see the change in the scenery.” - Peter Lentinello, Colliers

We’re proud that many of our longest-standing clients came to us after trying other vendors and realizing that consistency, professionalism, and peace of mind are worth coming back for.
Because when Excellent Work is absent, it’s noticed. But when it’s present — quietly, dependably, day after day — it defines the standard of what clients expect of their landscaping partners.
