What's included

Build for March, not for the photo

A backyard looks the same in July no matter how it was built. The difference shows up in March, when a deck on shallow footings has shifted and a retaining wall with no drainage has started to lean.

    • Patios, walkways and driveway borders
    • Compacted base and screeded bedding
    • Edge restraint and polymeric sand
  • Retaining walls

    • Segmental block walls

How we build it

How a backyard build runs

  1. Walk the yard

    We look at grade, drainage, sun and access, and ask how you actually use the space.

  2. Plan and permit

    A scaled plan with materials.

  3. Locates and dig

    Utility locates booked through Ontario One Call, then excavation for footings, bases and walls.

  4. Structure

    Footings, deck framing and retaining walls, with drainage in place before backfill.

  5. Surfaces

    Decking, interlock and railings installed.

  6. Finish and clean up

    Sod, beds and final grading, and the site raked clean.

Cost

What a backyard build costs

Most yards are a mix of pieces.

Every quote is a fixed price for your house, with HST shown as its own line.

FAQ

Backyard and landscaping builds questions

Don't see yours? Call (647) 513-7955. Someone picks up any time, 24/7.

In most of our cities you need one for a deck attached to the house, or any deck more than 60 cm above grade. We check your city's rules, draw the plans and book the inspections.

Pressure-treated costs less and can be stained, but it needs maintenance every couple of years. Composite costs more up front, needs no staining and won't splinter.

Almost always a base problem: not enough gravel, not compacted in lifts, or water getting underneath. We lift the pavers, fix the base and relay them, reusing the pavers if they're in good shape.

Plan your backyard with a fixed price

We walk the yard with you, sort out the drainage and price each piece separately.
