Lots here are narrow and deep, often with mature trees and little room for machines. Designs lean on small patios, layered planting and walkways that make a narrow side yard usable.
Big trees often fall under the City's Tree Protection By-law. Work near them is planned around the critical root zone, with protection fencing up before digging starts.
Site measurement, a scaled plan and 3D views, so you see the yard before it is built.
New walkways, steps, front beds and lighting that fit the house and the City's front-yard rules.
Patios and outdoor rooms built for Ottawa frost, with fire, lighting and privacy planned in.
Plant lists chosen for zone 5a winters, clay soil and the light each bed actually gets.
