Ivo has been a maintenance man on the Sunshine Coast since moving here from Edmonton in 1994. In 2011, after working for the business for two and half years, Jim's Mowing pulled out of Powell River, and Ivo bought the business from Chris Hallsor. He has built a loyal customer base and a solid reputation for being reliable and trustworthy, and customers appreciate his attention to detail.

Ivo and his crew are very busy keeping up with lawn care in the spring and summer months, finding time to also work on hedges and urgent maintenance needs. In the winter months Ivo focuses on pruning trees, shrubbery and hedges, and also works on home maintenance inside and out for both homeowners and rental properties.
