A successful landscaping project accounts for natural traffic flow across the property, drainage, sun exposure, and the home's architectural style — not just what looks good in a photo. We design each project around how you'll actually use it: a spot for entertaining, a space for kids, an entry-to-garden transition that makes sense day to day.
Excavation and grading are the foundation of any good landscaping project, even though they're rarely what people notice first. Poor grading tilts water toward the foundation instead of away from it, and poorly compacted soil causes whatever's built on top of it to settle — which is why site analysis, grading, and mini-excavation are built directly into our landscaping projects instead of being treated as a separate step.
Our landscaping work includes retaining walls to manage grade changes, structured garden beds with borders, sod installation, and planting shrubs and perennials suited to the Quebec climate, along with grading, mini-excavation, and drainage management for properties that need it.
Pavers, retaining walls, and excavation often go hand in hand — when a project touches more than one of these, the same crew handles it end to end so the transition areas between trades aren't an afterthought. Grading and mini-excavation are also offered standalone for drainage problems or site prep ahead of construction.
Assessment of existing slopes, drainage, sun exposure, and site constraints.
Target slopes to direct water away from structures, combined with a proposed plan for materials, plantings, and timeline.
Grading, mini-excavation where needed, removal of existing vegetation, and soil compaction.
Construction of structures (walls, edging), sod laying, planting.
Care recommendations for the first growing season.
Spring and fall offer the best soil and temperature conditions for planting and sod, but walls, grading, and edging can be built all summer.
Depending on height and municipality, a permit may be required. We check local requirements before starting work.
Expect 2 to 3 weeks of regular watering before the roots are anchored and the lawn tolerates normal use.
Yes, every project starts with a detailed proposal — materials, plantings, and timeline — before any commitment.
Yes, drainage and grading are assessed at the initial site visit, since that's the most common cause of problems that show up later.
Yes, these are also offered standalone, especially to correct existing drainage problems or prep a site before construction.
Yes, that's exactly the advantage of mini-excavation — it lets us work in spaces a standard excavator couldn't reach.
