Free Estimate All landscaping info

Barrhaven landscape construction is almost always a full first-time install. The builder leaves the lot graded for drainage and seeded; everything beyond that, beds, trees, lighting, irrigation, gets installed by the homeowner's chosen landscape crew. That's where we come in.

New Barrhaven lots are graded to the city's stormwater specs, which favours speed over performance. We re-grade pinch points and add area drains where the builder grade routes water badly.

FAQ

Landscaping questions, answered.

When is the best time to install sod in Ottawa?

Late April through early June and again from late August through October. Sod laid in mid-summer can survive but needs aggressive irrigation, so we usually steer clients to the cooler shoulder seasons.

Do you handle yard drainage problems?

Yes. We diagnose surface and sub-surface drainage issues, install French drains, channel drains and dry wells, and re-grade lots where the slope is the root cause.

Can you work around existing trees?

Absolutely. We use root-protection zones during excavation and adjust grading and hardscape layouts to preserve mature canopy whenever possible.

Do you offer landscape maintenance after install?

Our scope is design and construction. We hand off a written aftercare plan and can recommend trusted Ottawa maintenance crews for ongoing service.
