    Our Approach

    A full yard project works best when one team owns it from the first sketch to the final walkthrough. For new builds, we plan around the builder's lot grading and utility locations so your yard drains properly and nothing gets torn out later. For renovations, we work around what you want to keep, sequencing the work to protect mature trees, existing structures, and your lawn. One design covers everything: patios, decks, planting, lighting, and irrigation, with licensed trades coordinated through us. Larger properties can be built in phases, so the full plan comes together over time without losing the overall design.

    1. Design

      Discovery call

      We start with a call to talk through how you want to use the whole yard, whether this is a new build or a renovation, your timeline, and a working budget.

    2. Site visit

      We walk the property with you and note builder grading, existing trees, access, and where water collects after the spring melt.

    3. Master plan and 3D design

      We draw a plan that covers patios, decks, planting, lighting, and irrigation, then build it in 3D so you can see the full yard before construction starts.

    4. Build

      Site prep and grading

      We set grades and drainage first, and on renovations we remove what is not staying, so the new work sits on a yard that sheds water away from the house.

    5. Hardscape and structures

      Patios, walkways, decks, and outdoor living features go in to the master plan, sequenced so later planting and lawn are not torn up.

    6. Planting, lighting, and finishing

      Beds, sod or turf, lighting, and irrigation finish the property so the full yard renovation reads as one landscape.

    Built for Winnipeg Yards

    Clay

    A complete landscape on Red River clay has to start with grading. New builds and renovations both need water to move away from the house, or patios, beds, and lawn will sit wet after every melt.

    Frost

    Freeze and thaw affect every piece of a full yard renovation, from patio bases to planting. Materials and plants are chosen for Winnipeg, and the sequence of work protects what is already in the ground.

    Timing

    The build season is short. A master plan drawn in the fall or winter lets a new build landscaping project or a renovation start as soon as the ground is ready, and larger yards can be split across seasons without losing the overall design.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    A full yard renovation is the sum of the features you choose, so there is no single package price. Size, access, how much existing landscape has to come out, and the mix of patios, planting, decks, and lighting are what drive the total. Typical ranges for each item are listed in our Winnipeg landscaping cost calculator.

    A complete landscape project typically takes 1 to 8 weeks of active construction, depending on complexity. Simple projects may wrap in 1 to 2 weeks, while large-scale builds with multiple trades (concrete, gas, electrical, plumbing, masonry) can take 6 to 8 weeks or longer. We provide a detailed project timeline before breaking ground and keep you updated throughout the build with regular progress check-ins.

    The ideal construction window in Winnipeg runs from early May through late October. Early spring (May-June) is the busiest booking period, so planning and design should ideally begin in winter or early spring to secure your preferred start date. Fall installations (September-October) are excellent for planting, and hardscape work can continue until the ground freezes. We recommend starting the design process 2 to 3 months before your desired construction date.

    Yes, we manage every aspect of the build including excavation, grading, drainage, hardscaping, carpentry, planting, irrigation, lighting, and all required utilities (gas, electrical, plumbing). We coordinate licensed subtrades where required and handle all permitting, inspections, and project management. You deal with one team from design through completion, which keeps communication clear and the project on schedule.

    You can begin landscaping a new build as soon as the lot grading is complete and the builder has signed off. Most new homes require landscape completion within one year per municipal requirements. We recommend starting the design process even before your home is finished so we can coordinate with the builder on grading, drainage, and utility locations. Early planning prevents costly rework and ensures your landscape integrates perfectly with the home.

    New build landscaping is quoted by the features the lot needs, not as one flat fee. Typical starting pieces include site prep where existing material has to come out, a patio in the $5,000 - $10,000 to $18,000 - $30,000 ranges, planting beds, and sod in the $2,000 - $5,000 to $7,500 - $12,000 ranges. Add the items you are considering in the cost calculator for a combined range, then we confirm pricing on site.

    A full yard renovation usually covers design, grading, hardscaping, planting, and the finishing work that makes the property usable, such as lighting or irrigation. The master plan can include patios, decks, beds, lawn, and outdoor living features, built in one season or split across seasons so each phase still fits the overall design.

    Look for a company that handles residential landscaping as design and build, so the plan and the construction stay with one team. Ask how they deal with Red River clay and freeze-thaw, whether you will see the yard in 3D before construction, and whether they can run a full yard renovation or new build landscaping as one project rather than a set of disconnected extras.
