Landscaping builders usually offer a range of services including landscape design, hardscaping (patios, walkways, retaining walls), soft-scaping (planting trees, shrubs, flowers), irrigation system installation, outdoor lighting, and sometimes water features or outdoor kitchen construction.
Professional landscaping in Ontario typically costs between $2,000 to $10,000 CAD for basic services. Mid-range projects with some hardscaping can range from $10,000 to $30,000 CAD. Large-scale or luxury landscaping projects may exceed $50,000 CAD, potentially reaching $100,000+ CAD. Costs vary based on project size, design complexity, materials used, and specific features included.
The duration of a landscaping project depends on its scope. A small garden makeover might take 2-3 days, while a complete yard overhaul could take 2-4 weeks or more. Large, complex projects with hardscaping elements might extend to several months.
Landscape architects typically have a degree in landscape architecture and are licensed. They often work on larger, more complex projects. Landscape designers may have varied educational backgrounds and focus more on the aesthetic and horticultural aspects of residential projects.
To choose the right landscaping builder: 1) Check their credentials and portfolio, 2) Read customer reviews, 3) Ensure they’re licensed and insured, 4) Get detailed quotes from multiple builders, 5) Discuss your vision and budget clearly, and 6) Verify their experience with projects similar to yours.
Current landscape design trends include sustainable and low-maintenance gardens, outdoor living spaces (like patios and kitchens), native plant landscaping, smart irrigation systems, vertical gardens, and incorporating technology (like app-controlled lighting or watering systems) into landscape designs.
