Stephen and his guys have done a lot of work here, firewood stacking, yard clean up and help moving furniture. I highly recommend him. Always polite and hard working too!

We just had our (quite challenging) gutters cleaned. Stephen and his team were fantastic to deal with, and i could tell that they were really hard working. The result was a job very well done. We will definitely be using them again, and i would recommend that you do, as well.

Steve and his Valley Temp crew have done several jobs for us and we are so happy with the results and happily recommend. Work for us included: fence posts pounded into stoney ground, holes dug in stoney ground for garden planting, grass field whipper snipped into shape with all trimmings cleaned up. All stuff I am so glad they did instead of me.

Working with Steve is a real pleasure! He has done a great job cleaning up the yard after winter, and he has moved onto maintenance work and getting the yard organized and presentable. He treats my yard as if it were his own, and I couldn't ask for a better attitude!

He's great about asking me what my long-term goals are and what specific project I want to work on each time he arrives. He is punctual and shows up when he says he will, he works harder than anyone I've ever seen and his rates are reasonable. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

Highly recommend Stephen and his crew. Used them for firewood stacking and some heavy duty yard cleanup and hedge trimming. Found them to be very courteous, considerate and extremely hard working. After stacking 4 cords of firewood, the cleanup was so thorough that you couldn't tell that there had been any logs on my driveway at all.

Garrett & Brandon did a great job stacking firewood for me - they even took the time to clean up all of the 'wood pile debris'.

Stephen was quick to respond to any messages, and really great to deal with.

A hidden gem in the valley for locals as well as those from afar. Nova Scotia is a beautiful place but lacks reliable professional honest and reliable service providers until Steve, a local who founded Valley Temp Services. Steve cares about his customers, listens and delivers beyond expectations. First class service that cares about his customers..
