We are looking for someone to demo a brick outdoor counter with BBQ, replace it with some thing a bit simpler and more modern. The counter is about 8 to 10 feet by two feet with the BBQ sunk in it. There is a privacy screen incorporated into it which would go as well and be replaced by something similar. The BBQ is natural gas, not propane. In addition, we have a small grass area which is about 25' by 6' that we want taken out and replaced with a simple garden. The grass area has a bit of a slope and there are currently a few stone steps that we would want taken away and there would be some levelling required. Lastly we want some steps to a hot tub built and put in place. This job could be combined with a spring clean up of the garden generally.
Online Estimates only at the present time.
Remove and dispose of wooden deck; remove all river rock (backyard is full of river rock - there is no greenery whatsoever); install tumbled stone patio (approx. 250-270 sq. ft.); install 3 tumbled stone steps out back door to new patio; sod, and regrade if necessary, entire backyard and down side of house (approx. 1060 sq. ft.); plant 2-4 mature trees (I like ones with spring and fall colour).
The backyard has a swale for drainage so I need to ensure that remains intact. Depending on estimates received, this may lead to front landscaping as well.
* Backyard approx. 50x50 (irregular)
* Level entire yard up to house
* Remove existing shed (approx. 8x10) and dispose
* Remove wooden flower bed
* Pickup new shed (approx. 8x10) from Home Depot or somewhere similar and install
* Install sod
* Possible clean up of other flowerbeds around the perimeter
Start time is flexible depending on costs. Could start in spring 2019 or up to late fall 2019 depending. Even winter if this type of work is doable then.
Two pictures attached show shed and beside it is wooden flower bed to be removed.
Depending on costs, might need to do in stages.
I have a 3 tier retaining wall (rr tie) That I would like leveled off to 2 levels . I need ties removed and patio stones removed, level off and maybe remove some soil. My backyard can be accessed by a machine no wider than 36"s. Can anyone tell me who or how I can accomplish this at a resonable price?
I had new sod layed 3 weeks ago and asked the contractor to leave about 10 inches border between the fence and the new sod. I'd like this border to be a barrier between the fence and the grass. I'd like weed mesh to be placed and covered with river stone and have a rubber/plastic barrier between the stones and grass. This goes all around the backyard, fence, house and deck.
What would it cost to get the mesh, barrier and stone work done. The backyard is approx. 800 sq ft.
A series of multi-level elevated decks needs to be removed, keeping upper most level. You can quote on individual pieces if you would like. Things that need to be done:
-close off top level deck railing - 15linear ft. (prehaps reusing railing from deck levels to be removed)
-demolition of lower level desk and removal, about 900 sqft.
-removal of hot tub and perhaps underlying concrete slab.
-removal of 2x2 patio slabs (about 50-60 of them)
-removal of pea gravel path and under deck
-removal of stump.
-clean up grade and resod the lawn
-possible installation of small interlock patio and/or path - still deciding on this.
Would like to start asap.

I want to maintain the parking / driveway space in front of my house, it has three parts;
1. Interlocking tiles
2. Asphalt
3. Green part
I want to extend the driveway by aroubd 5’ with matching interlock and shrink the green part of it (remove the remaining grass and add fabric and river rock or something else.). It is a town house, I want to maintain the current inerlocking floor as the tiles are loose and shaky; lift, level and relay the existing tiles. The other part of the parking space is from asphalt and it is cracking. Level the edge of the street tiles to allow easy access to the garage. There is also a water valve in the green part.
Attached are some images that would better describe the situation. Please feel free to arrange for an inspection visit.
We have several projects we want to do as follows:
- Masterbedroom/ Washroom renovation: combine the current Master bedroom with the adjacent bedroom, change floor from carpet to hardwood, expand current window to either larger bay window or small deck with frenchdoor, expand current mainfloor washroom with larger shower room and make connection to the master bedroom
- Driveway, Hardscaping, Exterior: change current asphalt driveway to driveway with interlock, update steps to the main door, replace aluminium sidings
Hello,
We are looking to undertake a landscaping renovation on our front and backyard - due to the extent of work, it may need to be phased; however, the work is to remain cohesive throughout.
The scope of work can be broken up into a few different areas:
1. Backyard
- remove existing landscaping (trees and bushes) and hardscape (asphalt and paver stones)
- increase the overall footprint of the hardscape to maximize seating area utilizing interlock throughout
2. Front yard
- remove existing landscaping (bushes and hedges) and hardscape (paver stones @ walkway and front porch surface repair)
- update layout and reface steps to front porch
- regrade front lawn and provide landscaping to suit
3. Front Porch
- demolish existing front porch and reinstate new to larger footprint with updated materials
A detailed plan is available for review identifying concepts to be implemented.
we are in a home about 5-6 years old in fairly new subdivision; people behind who have sinced move put in pool and raised their grading a bit but their street was already higher than ours; we also put in a pool same time...too much water comes in around the pool which our sump pump can't always keep up with so it's getting under the pool liner...we have fixed some of the problem by digging up the back ourselves and putting in weeping tile and then a bit of gravel and soil; we believe we need to re-do this with a professional and put in new weeping tile and gravel etc and then just river rock and not soil...and take weeping tile towards front of house on both sides; any other solution we would also like to hear...is anyone good at grading issues?

Area . The driveway grading will require proper drainage, and maybe a retaining wall.
The current area has been removed of grass, however soil removal is required. Some Screening will be provided by the homeowner.
House is 3 years old, new construction.
Will need advise for type of pavers to use, colour.

This is a serious request.

I would like to replace grass in my back yard with stone or pavers placed few inches apart so that I could add something green in between (moss, thyme, clover?). I have not decided what kind of stone or paver but thinking of something large, flat, not necessarily flagstone as I know they are expensive but would like to compare the cost of it. I would welcome suggestions for the look I am after. My yard is currently grass (no weeds) 250 sq feet. Access through the garage only.
We are landscaping our backyard and have already engaged a landscaper but to circumstances beyond his control a few of his crew members were dropped from his rolls. We are looking for someone who has experience as a landscaper in helping him complete the project. We are looking for some one for a week and will pay 25$ an hour. Please contact me.
Small Backyard, back of free-hold town home, Upper Oakville, also goes by name of Morrison Village @ 6Th line across from River Oaks Rec. Centre.
Required landscaping design and planting.
Wild guess 20' x 20'
Backyard entrance only available through existing backyard /laneway/ personal 2 car garage. Possibly through neighbours property, upon consultation, ( no garage )
This backyard is mostly a " courtyard"
Property is appr. 15 years old. Have personally removed most of previous perennials and trees. Current existing backyard mostly covered with " credit valley stone " slabs.
I have one project that needs special attention before I even start.
My yard backs onto greenspace that is owned by the city, they have put a burm up a while ago and ever since we have had drainage issues with the spring thaw. All the water comes into our yard and causes the bedding to wash away, over the course of a few years, I now have a fence issue that needs repair due to the water I am sure. I have no problem paying to fix the fence, but in time it will just become the same issue.
I have talked to the city and they say it is my problem, but it is not my property? How do I fix my problem that is not on my property without getting fines or permits to do so?
Can you suggest a course of action for me, perhaps someone (contractor) can come out to look at the problem and advise a solution or the right course to have it fixed?
Thanks for your help.
Specific work required:
1. building a bench wall with integrated gas fire pit
2. replacing all existing interlock with new large style stone (uncertain of material to be used)
3. removal of some existing bushes/shrubs

5. treatment of fence - possibly fixed to show horizontal planks, otherwise stained
Extra:
6. continuing patio stone along side of house to front of house (pathway) - costed separately
Looking for some ideas on layout and design and a rough estimate on cost.

Would like to keep the budget under $12,000 if possible.
Thanks.
