They go together like salt and pepper, and bacon and eggs. That’s how synonymous Maurice is at Ashburton Contracting Limited, which has been in operation since 1995.

Maurice is ACL’s landscaping supplies manager and has been working for the company for 18 years.

“I’ve been here for a long time,” Maurice said with a smile.

“I had a background in this business long before I joined ACL because shingle and landscaping products were always part of my life.”

The transformation of ACL’s landscaping services has been vast in Maurice’s near two-decade stint.

“When I started, we had a smaller selection,” he said.

“Now we’ve expanded our inventory to include a vast array of products. We’ve got everything from the popular bark nuggets to coloured stones, various shapes and sizes, and even crusher dust. Our soil and growing materials are something we really pride ourselves on.”

And Maurice is particularly proud of their free loan trailers, which allows customers to transport their purchases easily.

“We offer deliveries in our little truck too,” he adds.

“And for those who prefer to grab and go, we have smaller lots and bags available.

“It’s perfect for those with smaller spaces who don’t need a full trailer load.”

It’s all about customer service for Maurice and his team.

They all love what they do. They love what they offer. They love going the extra mile, and customers appreciate their dedication.

They frequently wander into the office with specific needs and ideas.

“People often come in with projects in mind, like a new outdoor barbecue area or a garden overhaul,” Maurice said.

“They ask for advice on how to tidy up their space or keep weeds at bay.

“We’ve got a display in the office showcasing most of our products, and we also share photos of various landscape jobs around town to give them inspiration
