A Welcoming Team.
A Well-Run Company.
A Relentless Commitment to Quality.
Work That Builds You Up — with Room to Grow.
Hello from Steve and Estha!
We’re the founders and hands-on owners of this lovely little landscape maintenance company based near central Maple Ridge.
If you’ve found your way here, you may be asking yourself what it would really be like to work with us — and whether we’d be a good fit for each other.
That’s exactly how we see it too.
We’re not just looking for people to ‘do the job’. We’re inviting the right people to grow with us — and making sure this feels like somewhere you’d genuinely want to be.
We’re a small, close crew with a lot of heart and solid work ethics. We spend our days working hard together, solving problems together, and supporting each other. Over time, that kind of shared effort starts to feel a lot like an extended family.
We are dedicated to making GGandG a solid, welcoming, work place you’re proud to call your work home.
______________________________
Why We Started GGandG
We’ve both worked for and dealt with too many companies that were disorganized, careless, or treated people like they were easily replaceable.
After more than 10 years in home services, we heard far too many stories about unreliable contractors and disappointing service.
So we decided to build and offer something better.
We believe in supporting and encouraging each other, building people up and creating both a workplace and a service that makes people happy and feel genuinely valued.
We also believe in staying active — in building strength, working outdoors, and living in a way that keeps us moving and engaged.
This kind of work fits who we are.
We’ve been friends for over 25 years, married, and working together for more than a decade. Between us, we have decades of gardening, property maintenance, business, marketing, and operational experience.
• We care about doing things properly.
• We care about treating people with respect.
• We care about creating an environment where people aren’t just another number.
• We care about building something we’d be proud to hand over one day.
Right now, we still work full-time in the field while running the company behind the scenes.
We’re building this organically, systematically, intentionally, and with high standards.
______________________________
Where We’re Headed
In just three short years, we’ve grown from the two of us to:
• Us and 2 full-time crew members
• 2 additional part-time / casual team members
• And up to 7 or 8 people on larger projects
• Over 45 5-Star reviews between Google and Facebook
Along the way, some wonderful people have stepped in to help us manage the steady growth as more work came in.
Now we’re at the stage where we’re looking for longer-term crew members — people who genuinely love what GGandG represents in our communities and want to be a meaningful part of where we’re headed.
As the demand for our services continues to grow…
Over the next 3–5 years our plan is to expand to 3 to 4 full-time crews, along with additional part-time and casual team members.
While we always enjoy working in the field, eventually the two of us will step more fully into leadership, growth, and marketing roles so the crew can have more consistent full-time work in the field.
Our long-term vision is simple:
• Build a respected local company.
• Provide our communities with a reliable, helpful and trustworthy service.
• Create meaningful, worthwhile, local employment opportunities.
• And one day… because we decided to start GGandG in our 50s… hand the company and highly recognizable local brand over to the most capable, passionate, hard-working team members who help us build it.
— That’s the bigger picture — and something we’re happy to talk more about in person.

What We’re Offering Right Now:
At this stage, we’re hiring for:
• Part-time and casual positions, mostly Monday to Friday, some Saturdays.
• Occasional shifts (as needed)
• Flexible availability
Ideally:
• You can schedule around variable workdays
• You can be available on short notice
• You’re open to gradually taking on more responsibility over time
Starting pay is $25–$28/hour, depending on experience.
Bonuses and yearly increases are based on hours and performance.
This isn’t guaranteed full-time work — yet.
It’s an opportunity to connect early, see what working together would be like, and grow with us as we expand.

The Work Itself
This is physical, outdoor work from March through November.
Just like lighter and heavier work out days, some days feel like steady movement, some days push you and build you up.
Landscape upkeep and beautification takes someone who:
• Enjoys working outdoors in typical West Coast weather
• Is comfortable using tools and power equipment
• Is able to drive or learn to drive a highly branded pickup truck responsibly — even better if you’re comfortable with a trailer!
• Can occasionally work up to 10 feet on an orchard ladder
• Has strong stamina and functional strength
• Can lift heavy garden bags and move loaded tarps
• Shows up reliably
• Takes responsibility
• Has a no-excuses mindset
• Works well independently and contributes positively to a team
• Takes pride in serving the community
Experience in lawn care or gardening is valuable.
But character matters more.
We can teach techniques.
We can’t teach heart.

Why People Enjoy Working Here
People like the work environment we’ve built because:
-
The work, shop, setups, tools and systems are organized and well planned
-
Expectations are clear and fair
-
The team is supportive and respectful of each other
-
We genuinely care about doing things right
We’re proud of being a “small but solid” company — one where everyone matters and everyone contributes to the bigger picture.

You Might Feel Aligned If…
• You’re a professionally trained landscaper looking for a company with more heart.
• You have experience in lawn or garden work and care about doing quality work.
• You’re outdoorsy and physically capable – geared towards this type of work.
• You’re a tradesperson or hands-on worker who likes working outside.
• You’re anyone — including parents with flexible schedules — who enjoys physical outdoor work.
• You’re an athlete, hiker, or fitness-minded individual who likes work that keeps you active.
• You prefer building strength outside instead of sitting behind a screen.
In a world where many roles are being replaced by automation, this remains hands-on, human work, right where we live.
It requires judgment, adaptability, and pride. And it directly contributes to stronger, more beautiful neighborhoods.

Before You Reach Out by Email…
We encourage you to take some time to look over our Google reviews and social pages.
You can find our Google, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube and Nextdoor links at the bottom of the page.
If you read our reviews, they speak clearly about who we actually are and how we really work — the consistency, the care, the professionalism, and the standards we hold ourselves to and look for in our coworkers.
You’ll see how we treat clients.
You’ll see we show up and do what we say we’ll do.
You’ll see the level of detail and pride we bring to every job.
You’ll see some smiling, cheerful team members.
If that resonates with you, that’s important.
