Your property. One coordinated plan.
A landscape that belongs to your home.
For a Rougemount or Dunbarton property, begin by identifying retained garden elements and the actual construction route. A coordinated entrance and backyard plan can bring new stonework to the house without losing what already gives the site character. Review levels and drainage before deciding which existing surfaces can remain.
Landscape architecture
Coordinate the arrival, garden rooms and circulation through landscape design. Explore a complete vision for estate living.
Pools & outdoor living
Connect an in-ground pool with its terrace and a cabana or pavilion, with access and support spaces planned together.
Driveways & stonework
Bring estate driveways, steps, terraces and retaining walls into a coordinated material and grading plan.
Before construction
Separate surface wear from underlying problems.
Assess movement, drainage, edges and transitions before choosing a repair method. Sound units may be reusable, but lifting and relaying cannot be scoped properly without considering the underlying installation. Compare targeted repairs with reconstruction on the same basis, including preparation and restoration. Identify where retained materials meet new work so the final result is deliberate.
- The location and pattern of settlement or movement
- Water flow, edges and adjoining thresholds
- Reusable materials and matching limitations
- Repair limits and reinstatement written into the scope
Questions for your project
Resolve the important details early.
What should be assessed before extending a patio?
Check its construction, condition and finished elevations against the new design. Plan the interface between old and new materials and address drainage rather than simply adding more surface area.
What should we provide for a meaningful project discussion?
Share your address, photographs of the garden and construction access, a survey if available, the features you want to retain and your priorities. An intended budget range and timing help define the scope. Ask proposals to distinguish preparation, construction, finishes, allowances and restoration.
Feasibility and any required reviews depend on the address and proposed work. Confirm the applicable municipal and site requirements before treating a concept as an approved construction plan.
