Our Credentials

Credentials That Back Every Project

Our certifications, memberships, and professional standards are not just badges on a website. They represent the training, accountability, and commitment to quality that go into every project we complete.

Choosing a landscaping company is an important decision, and credentials matter. At Lush Landscape Service, we invest in the certifications, memberships, and training that ensure our work meets the highest industry standards. When you hire us, you are working with a team that is licensed, insured, trained, and accountable to the professional organizations that set the bar for landscaping excellence in Ontario.

Professional Certifications and Memberships

Landscape Ontario Member

As active members of Landscape Ontario, the leading horticultural trades association in the province, we adhere to a strict code of ethics and uphold industry standards for design, installation, and environmental stewardship. Membership requires demonstrated competency and a commitment to ongoing professional development.

WSIB Certified

We maintain active Workplace Safety and Insurance Board (WSIB) clearance on every project. This means our workers are covered by workplace insurance, and you, as the property owner, are protected from liability for any workplace injuries that occur on your property.

Fully Licensed and Insured

We carry comprehensive commercial general liability insurance with coverage limits that protect your property and your investment. Proof of insurance is available upon request and is provided with every project contract.

Our Professional Standards

Ongoing Training and Development

Our team participates in industry training programs, manufacturer certification courses, and Landscape Ontario educational events to stay current with best practices, new materials, and evolving installation techniques.

ICPI and NCMA Standards

Our hardscape installations follow the guidelines established by the Interlocking Concrete Pavement Institute (ICPI) and the National Concrete Masonry Association (NCMA) for base preparation, installation, and joint stabilization.

Environmental Best Practices

We incorporate sustainable practices into our work, including permeable paving options, responsible water management, native and adaptive plant selections, and waste reduction through proper material estimation and recycling.

Workplace Safety Program

We maintain a formal workplace safety program that includes regular safety meetings, job site inspections, and compliance with the Ontario Occupational Health and Safety Act. Every crew member is trained in safe equipment operation and emergency procedures.

Why Credentials Matter for Your Project

Your Property is Protected

Our insurance and WSIB coverage mean you are never personally liable for accidents or damage during your project.

Verified Quality Standards

Landscape Ontario membership means our work is held to measurable industry standards, not just our own internal benchmarks.

Accountability and Recourse

Working with a credentialed, registered company gives you recourse through industry associations and consumer protection if any issues arise.

"We interviewed three landscaping companies before choosing Lush Landscape. They were the only ones who proactively showed us their insurance certificates, WSIB clearance, and Landscape Ontario membership. That level of professionalism carried through to every detail of our project."
