Not all landscaping jobs are simple. Some projects require a multi-phase approach—blending thoughtful planting, structural grading, and aesthetic upgrades to deliver long-lasting, beautiful results. That’s exactly what we delivered for this recent client in the Greater Toronto Area.
Let’s walk through the full transformation step by step.
The backyard was due for a refresh. Our first priority? Replacing aging trees and restoring the side flower bed for better privacy and structure.
What we did:
Removed one failing Emerald Cedar and replaced it with a healthy 6ft Ontario-grown tree
Planted four new Black Cedars (6–7 ft tall) for privacy, including three along the neighbor-facing side of the property
Relocated decorative rocks and cleaned up the entire side flower bed
Edged and trimmed all flower beds and greenery
Installed 2 yards of premium black mulch for a bold, clean finish
This section of the project was all about restoration and subtle structure—preserving privacy while modernizing the space.

Next, we tackled the front of the property, which needed a full overhaul. This included tree and stump removal, plus a custom-designed planting plan.
Removed 1 dead tree near the front steps
Ground 4 old stumps flush to allow for proper grading and bed installation
Cleared all overgrown plant material and weeds
Supplied and planted:
24 Hill Yews (50 cm) for year-round greenery
12 vibrant Hydrangeas for seasonal color
20 mixed Hostas and Sedums for layered texture
Installed compost soil, landscape fabric, and finished with premium mulch
The result? A clean, high-end look with multi-seasonal appeal and long-term health built in. For more on our planting and design services, check out our recent projects.

Cedars grow fast, offer privacy, and stay green all year. We plant locally sourced cedars that thrive in Ontario’s climate.
Yes! We often combine stump grinding with new flower bed layouts, planting, and fresh mulch application for a full refresh.
Most projects like this are completed in 3–5 days, depending on weather and plant delivery schedules.
Proper grading ensures water drains away from your home, prevents pooling, and helps new sod establish faster.
We use premium black mulch for aesthetics and performance. It holds moisture, prevents weeds, and breaks down naturally to enrich the soil.
