Landscape Installation in Innisfil
We turn bare dirt and tired lawns into outdoor spaces that work for how you live.
What landscape installation actually means
You're not buying plants in pots. You're getting a complete outdoor build. We prep the soil, grade for drainage, install beds and pathways, plant everything, and make sure it all survives the first season. If your yard needs Irrigation System Installation, we handle that too so nothing dies in July.
Most projects in Innisfil start with clearing out old growth or leveling a slope. Then we bring in quality topsoil, set borders, and install the hardscape bones before anything green goes in. It's construction work first, gardening second.
We're not a garden centre. We source plants that survive Ontario winters and don't need babysitting. If you want a design drawn up before we dig, our Landscape Design service maps it all out. Otherwise we work from your photos and a site walk.
How we install landscapes in Innisfil
First visit is a walkthrough. We look at sun exposure, drainage, soil quality, and what you actually want to use the space for. If you've got clay soil or a yard that floods every spring, we fix that before planting anything. Grading and drainage aren't glamorous but they're the difference between a yard that lasts and one that turns into a swamp.
Installation day starts with marking everything out with spray paint. We excavate beds, bring in amended soil, set any Hardscape Installation like pavers or retaining walls, then plant. Mulch goes down last. Depending on size, a full yard takes anywhere from two days to two weeks.
We work across Innisfil and into Barrie and Bradford. If you're in Alcona or Stroud, we've done dozens of lakefront properties where wind and sandy soil need specific plant choices.
What a landscape install costs
Small front yard refresh with new beds and plantings runs $3,000 to $6,000. Full backyard transformation with grading, sod, multiple bed areas, and a patio border sits around $10,000 to $18,000. Larger properties or anything with significant slope work can push $25,000+.
Price depends on access (can we get equipment back there?), how much existing material we're ripping out, soil quality, and plant choices. Mature trees and specimen shrubs cost more than perennials and groundcover. We give you a fixed quote after the site visit so there's no surprise invoices.
Most people pair installation with our Landscape Maintenance plan for the first year. New plantings need consistent water and a bit of attention while roots establish. We can set that up or just hand you a care sheet if you'd rather do it yourself.
Why hire us for landscape installation
We've installed landscapes in Innisfil for years. We know the soil here. We know what survives winter and what the deer will destroy. We don't sell you a Pinterest board and disappear - we're the ones running the skid steer and setting every plant.
You get a written quote, a clear timeline, and no upselling. If something changes on site (like we hit bedrock or find old construction debris), we call you before adding costs. Most crews ghost you after install. We check back in a month to make sure everything's thriving, and we're around if it isn't.

Frequently asked questions
How long does a landscape installation take?
Small front yard projects usually take 2-3 days. Full backyard installs with grading, sod, beds, and hardscape run 1-2 weeks depending on size and weather. We'll give you an exact timeline in the quote. If rain delays us, we let you know the same day.
Can you install landscaping in spring or do I have to wait until fall?
We install spring through fall. Spring's ideal for most plantings because they get a full season to root in. Fall works great for trees and shrubs. Summer installs are fine but need more watering in the first few weeks. We avoid planting in July and August unless you've got irrigation set up.
Do you guarantee the plants will survive?
We guarantee proper installation - right depth, right soil, right location. If something dies in the first 30 days because we planted it wrong, we replace it. If it dies because it didn't get watered or a dog dug it up, that's on you. We give you a care guide and we're a phone call away if you're not sure what something needs.
