Landscape Construction in Richmond, ON

Professional landscaping for Richmond homeowners, quoted, scheduled and finished by the owners. 30 km southwest of downtown Ottawa from our base of operations, on our regular weekly route.

Richmond landscape construction works at country scale. Country and acreage properties support proper tree planting, formal axes and layered seasonal plantings that read across the whole property, not just the front-of-house. Village lots get a smaller footprint with the same level of design intent.

Many Richmond properties are on well water with septic. Irrigation sizing, planting density and bed locations all account for both well recovery rates and septic-field setbacks.

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.
