Digging Deeper for Results That Last

Unlike others companies, we dig 4 feet deep and use clear stone to fill the base before laying any flagstone or armour stone. This ensures:

  • Proper Drainage: Prevents water pooling and erosion.
  • No Soil Trapped Above the Freeze Line: Eliminates shifting and cracking caused by Ontario's freeze-thaw cycles.
  • Durability: Keeps your hardscape beautiful and structurally sound year after year.

"I needed a trail cut into the bush for my wife to walk and they took a landscape that was nearly impossible to walk and made it smooth enough to drive with a sport car! I highly recommend Blake and team for their professionalism and capability"

The team is absolutely incredible at whatever they do!

"Very pleased with the correction of our water management problems and trenching completed as we directed and phenomenal clean up in both areas. The Armour stone wall along the driveway is beautiful and just what we wanted. Jordan and his crew were thorough and friendly. We worked within our budget with ample consultation with Blake which made the whole process a good experience. We will definitely call them again for more projects. Thank you so much.

"From the first meeting with Blake, I instantly felt that no job was too small or too onerous. We originally had them out to help with a large dead pine tree removal, and some flagstone steps needing repair. However the price was right and we ended up hiring the team for several projects including fence line/lot clearing along with a wide range of spring clean-up projects. . . This crew works hard to make the most out of the day, and it is clear they did the best possible job to make sure the results last."
