Landscape Design

What you have in mind for your property and how you see it, isn’t always easy to share with someone else. It’s all that more important to enlist landscape contractors that really listen to what you’re saying, and asking questions along the way to clearly see and understand what it is you want to achieve.

Our design team takes what they learn, apply their knowledge, imagination, and skills to turn your mental images into a reality through backyard landscaping ideas, luminous landscape addition, the introduction of hardscape features, and much more. They are committed to providing you with the most ideal finished product and will work closely every step of the way with you in order to deliver exactly that promise.

Gardening Services

We love gardens and your garden will be in great hands with our professional, experienced, and creative gardeners. If you're looking for a revamp of an older, established garden that has seen better days, or are wanting a new planting of shrubs, bushes and everything in between, we will install a beautiful garden bed and then maintain it for you as long as you need us. 

We can also deliver and install bark mulch if required. It's great at suppressing weeds and eventually breaks down, providing much needed nutrients and body to the soil it decays into.

Sod and Grass Seeding

Our most in-demand services are sod installation and grass seeding. Though not used together very often, there are cases where the application of both pre-grown grass and grass seed can solve many hard to grow a healthy lawn issues so many home-owners struggle with. We love working with both solutions based on our individual client's needs.

Landscape Drainage

While water is necessary for our gardens, too much is not a good thing. So, this is why we design a drainage system that is reliable and will not allow water to pool and become a destructive element for your lawn or garden. Our goal here is to ensure that there is no standing water, that could end up causing short- or long-term problems.

We design and, through installation processes, manage surface water run-off using the best approach for the unique situation we face, such as setting up raised beds, setting up a working slope, and slitting, along with other available strategies we can employ.

Our intent is to ensure that after hardscaping and landscaping, your yard, lawn or garden is able to handle rain or irrigation channels and systems, without becoming waterlogged or eroding away.

Ponds and Waterfalls

There was a time when water features were frequently used in residential and commercial landscaping. Now, with global warming, the location of your property may dictate what type of water feature is ideal for your desires and locations.

Certainly, with a large enough property and the water supply, a pond can become a lot of things, such as a swimming hole or even one could stock it with fish and go fishing in your own pond at any time. Both ponds and waterfalls add a unique feel to any landscaped area that also serves a place to rest and ponder.

Hardscaping

Hardscaping plays an important role in both providing utility to your property and at the same time supporting the soft-scaping of your garden and yard.  Hardscapes and softscapes are opposite elements in landscape design, but if well-executed in tandem, brings your outdoor space to a new level.

So, maybe you need a patio laid, a sitting wall or beautiful retaining wall constructed, or anything else to enhance the outdoor space that is not alive, you can be sure that Halifax Landscape Design can provide you with a wealth of choices when it comes to your hardscape needs. Landscape rocks to cement installations, we have the best solutions to meet your specific and unique needs.

Tree Care Services

We also have a division that is in place to provide you with quality arborist services, to maintain the overall appearance of your landscape all year round. These services include hedge and shrub trimming, tree care including removal and installation, and other varied services.

Retaining Wall Installation

Landscape Design and Hardscaping in Halifax and essentially throughout the HRM region requires the ability and skillset to design and build retaining walls for a variety of purposes. The primary purpose of a proper retaining wall installation to hold back soil that otherwise would slide and erode from its original location.

So, if you’re trying to deal with soil that is sloping downwards, shoring up an eroding waterfront edge, creating tiered garden beds, or whatever you can imagine, we design and install the retaining wall perfectly to be your solution.

Taking your preferences into consideration, and based on the unique demands and limitations of your property, our masonry team will construct the best retaining wall for your specific needs. Our successful experience installing retaining walls with a variety of building materials, comes along with being able to skillfully determine which style and material is the ideal choice for your wall, including using stone, concrete, and masonry.

Of course, the size and purpose of the wall, means choices can be limited by the wall’s location, the duration over which the retaining wall is expected to withstand the forces of earth moving against it, and of course we consider your preferred aesthetics of what your vision is. Our professionals maintain openness to your suggestions every step of the way so that what is installed is done right the first time, and to last a lifetime.
