Tim and Trevor at Turf Net have been instrumental in many of the changes we've made at our business over the past couple of years. They've done big projects for us like installing the turf on our new mini golf course, installing new safety netting on our driving range tee, repairing our range nets after winter ice damage, and bringing in a brand new automated range ball dispenser - plus installing the turf and hitting bays for the John White Golf Learning Centre on our lower clubhouse level - not to mention all the "little" things we always need from them, like running over extra mini golf putters and balls when we ran short, and all the assorted golf and range supplies they have on hand or at a moment's notice. They don't stop at "good enough" - they keep pushing to the end to make sure the final product they deliver is nothing short of perfect. They hold their standards extremely high and they've earned my business and my trust in knowing they won't let anything slide. Thank you Tim and Trevor!
