- Weeds and ants in the paver joints
- Leaning retaining wall
- Water pooling in the yard
- Water draining toward the house

FAQs
Landscaping Services FAQs
We reply fast, usually within the hour, and quotes are always free. A lot of the time we can quote over the phone, by text or by email from a few photos and measurements; when the job needs a look at the grade or the access, we set a visit at a time that suits you. Quick to quote, quick to start, we answer every call, and start dates are booked in the order quotes are accepted.
The quote is written and spells out the scope: the dig, the base, the materials and the finish, with materials billed at what they cost us. The price holds for the work described. It changes only if you add something, or if we find something buried that nobody could see, and in either case we talk to you and agree it before we carry on.
A first payment when the agreement is signed, then payments as each stage of the work is finished, with the last payment on completion. The schedule is written into the agreement before we start, so there are no surprises, and we accept e-transfer, cheque and cash.
Yes to both. Fully insured, 1-year craftsmanship warranty, Hamilton owned and operated. The 1-year craftsmanship warranty applies unless the agreement says otherwise: a patio that settles or a wall that leans inside the year is ours to put right.

Homeowners mention fast replies, clear quotes, tidy job sites and work finished on time, which is what makes us one of the top backyard landscaping companies in the area.
Yes. We work through the layout and materials with you, then we build it. One company handles your outdoor space from the first conversation to the final clean-up, so nothing falls through the cracks, and a local contractor builds for local conditions: Hamilton's clay soil and freeze and thaw winters decide the base, the drainage and the materials.
A full range: interlock patios, driveways and walkways, retaining walls, hardscaping and stone steps, patio restoration, concrete, grading and drainage, sod, gardening and lawn care plans, tree and shrub trimming, and custom carpentry such as decks, fences, pergolas, gazebos and sheds, for homes and commercial properties.
We install new sod for front and back yards, including grading and soil preparation so it roots well, and we repair damaged lawns. Every new lawn comes with a written care plan for watering and the first mow. We do not offer weekly lawn cutting, and we are happy to recommend a local lawn care company for that.
Yes. Often you do not need to start over. We provide patio restoration and upgrades: we pressure wash, lift and re-level sunken pavers and refill the joints with new polymeric sand so tired interlock looks new again. We also add garden beds and edging, rebuild a tired retaining wall, and resurface worn concrete steps.
Yes, designs are available on request. For bigger projects we can show you a layout before anything is built, and you can make changes before we start. Just ask when we quote. The layout shows where the patio, the walls, the steps and the beds land, so the written quote matches what gets built.
Sometimes. A deck attached to the house, a retaining wall over a metre high beside public property, a fence above the by-law height, a new or wider driveway where it crosses the City boulevard, and bigger grade changes can each need a permit or approval from the City of Hamilton; a patio, a walkway, a lawn or a garden on your own lot does not. We tell you before we quote whether yours does, and a free Ontario One Call locate comes before every dig.
