Hi there. My name’s Doug and I’m the Best Local Help Agent for Gold Canyon.<br /> <br /> I have both lived and worked here in Gold Canyon for the last 20 years having moved here from the UK in 2004 to oversee the opening and development of the US arm of my computer software business. After selling that business in 2012, and having met and married my wife Andrea in the interim, I decided to open a landscape maintenance business here in Gold Canyon both to provide employment for my two stepsons and to deliver a consistent, reliable and cost effective service that focused exclusively on Gold Canyon and the neighboring 85118 communities rather than be forced to use one of the “here today, gone tomorrow” types of service provider that appeared to be pretty common in the landscape maintenance field in Gold Canyon at the time.<br /> <br /> <br /> From that date to this, the landscape maintenance company that I started - and that is now owned and operated by one of my stepsons - has helped well over 800 households here in Gold Canyon and the surrounding 85118 communities and continues to provide an actively ongoing service for well over 50% of them.<br /> <br /> I realized very quickly that running a business that provided me with the opportunity to interact with multiple fellow Gold Canyon residents and homeowners on a daily basis, actually provided me with the perfect means of finding the best local help outside of landscaping for my own personal home and automotive maintenance needs … and that’s how the Best Local Help Preferred Vendor List started.<br /> <br /> Over the years I have actively continued to seek out the very best local service providers who are not only great at what they do but who have clearly demonstrated both a connection and a commitment to Gold Canyon, initially for personal benefit and more latterly for sharing with my landscape customers upon request.
