Landscaping on the south coast of BC is often possible 12 months of the year, however, choosing the best time really depends on the,
For example, early September is ideal to begin major structural work such as grading, drainage, retaining walls, new concrete driveways / walkways, irrigation systems, soil improvement / replacement, flower bed creation, lawn installation and so on.
The reason why early fall is ideal is because most structural work can take time to be completed properly. Leaving this work until the spring means you will miss the opportunity to take full advantage of the best plant selection which is always at its peak in March, April and May.
Regardless of when you choose to proceed, we will do our best to accommodate you.

Sometimes weeding, edging, raking, pruning, removing dead / diseased plant material or trees is all that is required to regain that crisp look without incurring significant expense.
This is a difficult question to answer without seeing the quality of the plants, shrubs and trees and where they are located. The answer also partly depends on your budget and it depends on how badly you want the ideal look that is completely free of trouble spots.
For example, it would be difficult to achieve an exceptional result if your yard slopes back toward the house. You could spend a lot of time and money installing beautiful grass, an irrigation system and flower bed design only to find out later that you need to start again and re-grade the yard away from the house because you have a leaking basement as a result of poor drainage. There are many examples like this where I will lobby the cause for doing things right the first time.

We are experts at producing street appeal, otherwise known as curb appeal. Sometimes small changes can produce significant results. This service is particularly popular when a client is trying to sell their home. We consider home staging for the yard to be very important because many prospective purchasers will not get out of their car to view the inside of a house if they don�t like what they see on the outside. Home staging can include such items as window boxes, planters, fountains etc.
