Landscape Design Process
The landscape design process can be stressful. Let us relieve some of your stress by breaking down the process, so you know exactly what you can expect from us:
1. Consultation
Consultations enable us to understand what you expect from us and the steps needed to exceed them. Prospective clients are offered a free on-site consultation. Following is an outline of the consultation: a full project scope, budget, client must-haves, desired aesthetic, goals, and the state of the current outdoor living space.
This is a great opportunity for us to discuss your overall vision for your space, as well as any specifics you have in mind. You may want to include measurements, notes, and pictures.
2. 3D Design
For your tentative landscape design, we use our in-house 3D modeling technology to create extensive draft mock-ups. Our landscape designers create designs during this stage based on variables discussed during the consultation phase, as well as other important considerations (e.g. pre-existing structures). The 3D designs allow our designers to communicate their vision more effectively, and make adjustments, as needed.
3. Final Revisions
A more in-depth discussion of color options and materials may be held, to ensure the next stage can commence with no further tweaks or adjustments. An official estimate will be sent to you once these details have been settled.
4. Obtaining Permits
The following steps must be completed after the official estimate and design have been approved:
-
Obtain the correct permits
-
Comply with the codes of the local municipality
To remain on schedule and within budget, these steps must be completed correctly in order to prevent significant delays in the construction process.
5. Construction
Our landscape designer and project manager will work closely with you during the construction stage to ensure the design, budget, and timeline remain on track. We are backed by a wealth of experience that ensures a clean and effective process, allowing us to get the job done right the first time, every time.
Our Services
Landscape Design Softscaping
Softscaping involves horticultural elements that are “soft” in nature. The following are some examples of softscaping elements: flowers, grass, mulch, shrubs, and trees.
Hardscaping and softscaping often complement each other very well, as they create a beautiful contrast and increase the property’s appeal and value. Whether you envision a more natural or formal softscape for your home, our landscape designers will be able to design it according to your taste.
Landscape Design Hardscaping
The term “hardscape” refers to the use of “hard” materials that can be moved. Stones, gravel, and paving are some examples of hardscaping materials.
Structures within the landscape could be both practical and decorative. A practical hardscape structure would include a driveway, an interlocking patio, and a rock garden. A decorative hardscape structure would include a fence, a gazebo, and a rock garden. Due to our landscape designers’ years of combined experience, there are endless possibilities when it comes to landscape design! If you would like to collaborate with our designers, give us a call!
Yard Lighting
Lighting can be incorporated throughout your landscape to transform its appearance. The right lighting can instantly transform your landscape by creating an elegant and luxurious atmosphere.
Adding outdoor lighting to your home can also boost its curb appeal. Illuminate your home to create a welcoming atmosphere for bypassers. It is also worth mentioning that outdoor lighting looks absolutely stunning at night when done correctly. Please give us a call if you’re interested in installing outdoor lighting for your home.
Pool Design
Our design team can create a gorgeous outdoor pool design that will enhance your backyard experience. Create a new party hub in your backyard with an outdoor swimming pool that fits your backyard’s design, shape, and size.
Having trouble getting started? If you would like to learn more about all things related to pool lighting, materials, shapes, colors, and patterns, our designers would be glad to take the time to sit down with you. Do you want to take it a step further? What about a cabana for your guests to change in or a brand-new interlocking around your pool that matches your home’s aesthetic?
Sports Courts
Are you a big sports fan? Entertain your guests with an outdoor sporting court and make sure there is never a dull moment. We specialize in our highly-requested basketball and tennis courts, which are always a big hit – especially for families with children/teens.
Should you like to inquire about other sporting courts, we encourage you to reach out to our design team to inquire.
Paving & Interlocking Designs
Adding interlocking to the surrounding area will make your pool truly stand out. You can integrate your pool and other entertainment areas with pool interlocking if you want to create an oasis in your backyard.
If you’re looking for the perfect colour, shape, and size for your pool interlocking, our designers are here to help!
Outdoor Kitchen Designs
It’s true that food brings people together. We can help you set up an outdoor kitchen so you can cook and barbecue outside with your family and friends, so you don’t have to miss out on the outdoor fun.
We highly recommend checking out our other landscape design services for a complete outdoor kitchen look.
Woodwork Designs
Having difficulty getting woodwork done? There is almost nothing we can’t accomplish with our wide range of woodworking services. If you are in need of a “staycation”, let us help you create your outdoor paradise.
Integrate our woodwork into your backyard to create a flowing design. A wooden fence or deck is a great complement to our outdoor pool installations, providing you with the best of both worlds: entertaining guests while maintaining privacy. To provide everything your guests could need, without having to go inside, consider adding a cabana or gazebo to your pool area for your guests to easily transition in and out.

Frequently Asked Questions
How Does The Landscape Design Process Work in Toronto?
Our landcape designer will be able to walk you through the process by discussing the details of your project (vision, timeline, budget). We will present you with 3D mockups. A second meeting will be held to settle the remaining in-depth details. After that, you will receive an estimate for the project. Permits and codes will be obtained in advance, prior to the implementation phase. At this point, construction can begin.
Do I Need To Obtain Permits?
A permit is not typically required for landscaping or backyard improvements. Every municipality, however, has its own bylaws. Over the years, we have carried out a number of landscape design projects with our team of highly experienced landscape designers. We would be more than happy to help you obtain the necessary permits if you are unsure about the specific actions you need to take for your project (if any).
Are Your Landscape Design Toronto Contractors Insured?
Yes, our team is fully licensed and insured.
Is landscaping important for the overall look and feel of a property?
A well designed landscape can not only improve the aesthetic appeal of a home or business, but can also add value to the property by enhancing its visual appeal. Landscape features such as trees and plants can provide shade, privacy, and create an inviting atmosphere. In addition, certain types of landscaping can reduce water runoff, minimize erosion, and provide habitat for wildlife. Furthermore, landscaping can be used to add texture, color, and interest to a property. When properly planned and maintained, landscaping is essential for creating beautiful outdoor spaces that are both practical and visually appealing.
What are some tips for incorporating different features into a landscape design?
Here are some tips for incorporating different features into a landscape design:
- Think about functionality as well as aesthetics when planning the design; consider how the features you select can be used and provide utility.
- Choose plants and trees based on climate, soil conditions, and size requirements for your property.
- Incorporate elements that encourage wildlife to the area – such as birdbaths, feeders, and habitats for beneficial insects.
- Use hardscaping such as pathways, retaining walls or fences to create visual interest and structure in an outdoor space.
- Consider including accent lighting or water features that can bring life and excitement to a landscape design at night.
- Make sure materials blend within the environment by selecting colors that blend with surrounding foliage; texture is also important in creating visual appeal.
How can natural stone be used in a landscape design?
Natural stone can be used in a variety of ways to enhance the look, feel, and functionality of a landscape design. Stones can be used to create walkways and patios, add visual interest with raised flower beds or planters, retain walls for soil stabilization, fountains and water features, fire pits or outdoor seating areas. Natural stone can also be integrated into retaining walls for increased strength and durability. With so many beautiful types of natural stone available for use in landscaping, you’ll have plenty of options to choose from when designing your outdoor space.
Are there any considerations for incorporating water elements into a landscape design in Toronto?
You’ll need to decide what type of water feature you’d like to include – whether it be a pond, stream, waterfall, or fountain. Next, you will need to determine what size and shape would best suit the space available. Consider how the feature will work with surrounding plants and other hardscape features. In addition to being aesthetically pleasing, water elements can create a calming atmosphere and provide valuable habitat for wildlife.
How can I incorporate lighting in my landscape design?
Lighting can be an effective way to add visual interest, dimension, and function to your landscape design. Whether it’s highlighting architectural features or providing visibility during dark hours, strategically placed lighting can enhance the appearance of your outdoor space. Creative uses of lighting include uplighting trees and shrubs, downlighting pathways or garden beds, installing string lighting in trees or around a seating area, or utilizing fire pits or torches to create a cozy atmosphere. With careful consideration of placement and fixture types, you can make your landscape come alive with light.
Are there any alternatives to traditional grass lawns that could provide unique and appealing solutions to outdoor living spaces?
Instead of a traditional grass lawn, there are several alternatives that may provide unique and appealing solutions to outdoor living spaces. For instance, groundcover plants like creeping juniper or thyme can add texture to your landscaping while still providing the look of a lush green area. Artificial turf is another great option for those looking for an eco-friendly solution since it does not require mowing or chemical spraying. Other options such as gravel pathways and decks also offer great ways to create outdoor entertaining spaces without relying on a traditional grass lawn.
What type of landscape woodworking services do you offer?
We offer a variety of landscape woodworking services, including custom-built decks and outdoor structures such as gazebos, pergolas and trellises, fences and lattices, as well as landscaping elements such as planters and garden boxes.
Do you provide on-site consultations for landscape projects in Toronto prior to starting work?
Yes, we offer complimentary on-site consultations for all landscape projects to ensure that the design meets your needs and specifications. We also provide a 3D rendering of your project so that you can envision how it will look in its completed form.
What type of stonework services do you offer?
We offer a variety of stone work services, including design and installation of stone walls, patios, walkways, steps and retaining walls. We also specialize in custom stonework designs and pre-fabricated pieces.
What services do you offer for outdoor kitchen contracting?
We provide a full range of services for outdoor kitchen contracting, including designing the layout, selecting and sourcing materials, constructing the space and installing appliances. We also offer custom stonework solutions, such as decorative stone walls and walkways to enhance your space.
What type of sports courts can you build for my Toronto home?
