Leadership

Jesse Dodd

co-founder & president

Jesse Dodd, founder and president of Ace Turf, is the leader and visionary for the company. Involved in every step of the process Jesse oversees quoting, sales, installations, quality control as well as overall business strategy and growth. Jesse Graduated from the University of Calgary with a Bachelor of Commerce degree specializing in entrepreneurship and innovation. Throughout his time in university he worked for a high-end landscaping company to put himself through university (debt free!) and stayed on with the company as the lead project manager and to help the small business grow. With a collective 15 years landscaping experience and his bachelor’s degree Jesse was primed and ready to start Ace Turf.

The opportunity came about in early 2018 when The Home Depot Canada reached out to enlist Ace Turf/Jesse Dodd to handle its rising demand for artificial turf installations in the BC market. Without hesitation Jesse packed up his things, moved provinces and started Ace Turf. This was difficult as for a time Jesse had to move away from his family (lovely wife Marina and two amazing children) in order to start the business. Ace Turf is everything to Jesse and his family and that shows through the long list of satisfied customers we have been honored to serve over the past years. Jesse brings a down-to-earth, relatable and honest approach to business. Customer satisfaction and integrity are the foundation on which Ace Turf is built. Ace Turf adopts policies like quoted price is the final price, customer comes first, we show up when we say we will show up and open lines of communication. These have proven to result in extremely happy customers that know exactly what to expect, a clear plan on how we get there and honest/timely answers to their questions.

Jesse and his team are committed to providing the most professional service possible in an industry which is known for its lack of professionalism.

In the very little free time Jesse has he enjoys reading, travelling whenever possible, nights out with friends, playing with his little ones, backyard BBQ’s, swimming, golfing and snowboarding.

Cam and his team at Ace Turf were hardworking, professional and friendly. They answered all of our questions and did a great job on the installation. It was completed it no time at all and looked amazing. Quotes were accurate and there were no hidden fees, what you see is what you get. Very happy with the product and the outcome. It was the perfect final piece to turning our backyard into the perfect relaxing and entertaining space!

UPDATE: Great after-service! Cameron came back the following summer and touched-up a seam. You can count on satisfaction on their work.ORIGINAL: We had a small job to replace the grass in our backyard with artificial turf since nothing was growing under two large spruce trees. Cameron from Ace Turf visited our home and provided an estimate once we chose the artificial grass we wanted. Cameron was very professional, polite, and easy to talk to. We found their quote quite competititve among 5 companies. Two workers along with Cameron started the project on their promised date and completed it in 2 1/2 days. The workers were hard working (manual digging and removal of the existing grass and dirt), well mannered, friendly, and kept a tidy worksite. The finished job looks excellent (the grass actually looks too perfect now!) and it met all our expectations.We are very pleased with the project from start to finish and would highly recommend Ace Turf for this type of work.

I had a wonderful experience working with Cameron and David from Ace Turf. Cameron was very responsive and helpful throughout the whole process in answering and addressing any questions or concerns that I had. The installation was seamless and quick. I am so happy with the final result, the turf is soft to the touch, it makes my daycare space look bigger, brighter and most importantly the kids love running and rolling around on it. I would highly recommend them to anyone that is looking to install artificial turf.
