Landscaping & hardscaping in Innisfil.
Patios, concrete, retaining walls and landscaping from Alcona to Cookstown — and snow and ice service through the winter.
Local knowledge
Lakeside lots, built right.
Innisfil stretches along the west shore of Lake Simcoe, from Alcona and Big Bay Point down to Gilford, with Stroud, Lefroy and Cookstown inland. That mix means very different properties: lakefront and near-lake lots where drainage and water tables matter, newer subdivisions with fresh grading, and larger rural properties with long driveways.
We plan each project around the site — where water goes after a storm or spring melt, what the soil is like, and how the space will be used. Then we build the base to match, so patios, walkways and walls stay put.

What goes underneath.
Near the lake, drainage and a well-built base matter even more. This is what goes under every patio we build.
- 01Polymeric sand
Swept into the joints and set with water. Locks the pavers together and keeps weeds and ants out.
- 02Pavers
The surface you see. Material, colour and pattern are chosen with you at the design stage.
- 03Bedding layer
Screeded flat by hand so every paver sits at the right height — no dips, no wobbly stones.
- 04Compacted granular base
Crushed stone placed and compacted in lifts. This carries the load and is what keeps a patio flat through freeze–thaw.
- 05Geotextile fabric
Separates the base from the soil so the two don’t mix — the hidden reason older patios sink.
- 06Compacted subgrade
Native ground dug to depth, compacted, and graded so water runs away from the house.
