Landscaping and Garden Installations in North Vancouver, BC

Paver Installation and Repair

Garden installations are generally centered around eye-catching plants, but without good pavers, it can be difficult to enjoy your garden!  Regardless of the size of your garden, pavers can help define the space while providing safe, easy access through and around the garden.  We also pave porches, gazebos, and any other type of outdoor living space you might have!

If you are starting from scratch, we offer professional paver installation either as a stand-alone service or as part of a larger garden installation.  We offer a wide variety of pavers to match any color scheme or theme.  Once a design is selected, our technicians are experts at excavating without causing harm to surrounding buildings or natural elements, laying a solid base, and setting your new pavers so that they will not shift or settle regardless of what the weather brings.

Some homes already have great pavers, but time and weather events have taken a toll on them.  We also offer paver repair and restoration to make your existing pavers look like new.  Was your patio floor once vibrant colors, but has faded in the sun?  Or have your garden pavers sunk into the soil so far that you can barely see them?  Whatever condition your pavers are in, we can restore them to their original beauty.

Retaining Wall Installation

Retaining walls are an integral design element in many landscaping installations, but they often serve a practical purpose as well.  A well-placed retaining wall will level the land and prevent soil erosion, giving grass and other foliage an ideal environment in which to grow and thrive.  During North Vancouver, BC’s rainy seasons, a solid retaining wall can be the difference between flourishing plants and a mudslide.

The first step in building a retaining wall that will weather any storm is a firm foundation.  This means digging down deep and building a wide base for even the smallest retaining wall.  Our technicians have both the training and the equipment to accomplish this with the least amount of collateral damage possible. 

With a solid foundation in place, we offer a variety of materials for the above-ground portion of the wall.  Sturdy does not have to mean ugly - holding soil in place may be a retaining wall’s primary purpose, but it should also contribute to the landscape in a positive way.  Our landscape designers ensure that every retaining wall installation is both aesthetically pleasing and strong enough to weather any storm.

Landscape Irrigation and Drainage

Have you ever stepped outside after a hard rain and discovered that your beautiful lawn has turned into a pond?  Or do you spend hours with a garden hose in your hand trying to keep your plants alive during dry spells?  Even if neither of these extremes applies to you, a good irrigation and drainage system can maintain your lawn and garden’s health while reducing the maintenance it requires.

Irrigation systems ensure that every plant in your garden receives exactly the right amount of water at exactly the right time.  We install state-of-the-art sprinkler systems that can be programmed once and forgotten, as well as more budget-friendly options that require manual activation.  Regardless of the type you choose, you can relax knowing that your plants are well taken care of - without you ever picking up a garden hose or watering can!

Drainage systems often work in conjunction with irrigation systems, ensuring that water neither washes away excess soil nor pools and stagnates as it moves through a landscape.  Such systems can be as simple as a few well-placed cement troughs (that we will be sure to coordinate with your other design elements).  Most homes do not need complex drainage systems, but we also have experience in designing and installing such systems if the need arises.  Whatever your irrigation and drainage needs, call us today for a free quote!

Landscape and Garden Design

While many of our hardscaping services are primarily practical in nature, we are much more than a construction company.  Our landscape designers produce beautiful works of art from natural building blocks every day.  Whether you want a vibrant mosaic of colorful plants to welcome you home every day or a peaceful retreat where you can escape from the stress of the day, our landscape and garden installations are crafted to your space and your desires.
