Blades of Glory was first conceived in 1994. We prepared for a year before we started the 1st annual Campbellford Scottish & Medieval Festival. That festival lasted 2 years 1995 & 1996 and was held on Labour Day weekend. Even though the festival did not survive past 2 years, it did take us other directions.
Once you get to Hastings, you will get to a 3 way stop sign (you have the right a way) where you will turn left and go down a hill (if you pass Hastings P.S., you have gone just a bit too far). Go straight through the only set of lights in Hastings, go over the bridge and to turn left at the first street past the bridge (Water St. - there is a plaza on the corner).

I priced out 4 different turf installers. Blades of glory was not the cheapest however I felt like I could trust them the most. As it turns out, I 100% made the right decision. During the whole process they explained exactly what was going to happen and helped me with potential issues. I had a reflection from my windows that could potentially hurt the turf. They spent hours on the phone with me trying to answer my questions and helped me get comfortable with a large investment. In the end, my wife was the one that wanted the turf and I was skeptical. Having it now installed, I am thrilled with

Their customer service and quality of work is excellent. John is very professional and he presented me with options. After getting on their schedule, they installed my lawn in two days including working on a Saturday. I highly recommend them.

We are beyond thrilled with our new backyard! John and the Blades of Glory team completely transformed our outdoor space and it feels like we have gained a whole new living space. We interviewed a number of companies but felt the best connection with John and team. They immediately understood our vision, their product was of highest quality, their pricing was reasonable and aligned with other quotes, and they were genuinely just good people that I appreciated working with. Highly recommend Blades of Glory, our only regret is not working with them sooner!

From tree abatement or stump removal to artificial grass, landscape design all the way to completion these guys have you coved. My wife and I are so happy we chose Blades of Glory for the synthetic lawn in our front and back yards. John, one of the owners, was wonderful, easy going, very knowledgeable and personable. We received 4-5 estimates for our project from other local companies. John and Tony are honest and gave us an excellent price for our synthetic grass and landscape project. They beat other companies by thousands of dollars. Additionally, I was impressed with the large variety and quality

These guys were great. From beginning to end, very professional with no drama or delays. The crew that installs the turf is exceptional. They arrived 10 minutes early along with Tony the boss. I was very impressed with the quality of the turf and the quality of the install process. Do not bother with other bids or companies. Book it with Tony or John and you can rest assured everything will go smoothly.

John, Tony, and the entire Blades of Glory team are fantastic. We recently had Blades of Glory install a putting green in our back yard. John came over to our home to introduce himself and Blades of Glory. He did his homework to fully understand what we wanted and developed a quote. We went with Blades of Glory. Their team showed up to perform the install and did a great job. They are professional and friendly. They worked with us throughout the process to make sure the putting green was exactly what we wanted. They did a great job installing a path on the side of our house. We absolutely recommend

This is my fourth synthetic lawn with Tony, John, and the Blades of Glory crew. 3 our my rentals and the fourth is my own front lawn. Their work is always high quality and the product they sell is excellent. I have had people drive by and ask, "who did your lawn? It looks so real!" If you are considering saving water and going synthetic please call these guys. It would be worth your while. Very good company to consider.
