Frequently Asked Questions - FAQs
General & Process - FAQs
You can request a quote through our Contact page or by calling our team. We’ll ask for a few details (address, photos, rough measurements) and schedule a site visit. After we confirm scope and materials, you’ll receive a written proposal with pricing, timeline, and warranty info.
Design & Permits - FAQs
Permits depend on your municipality and the work. Fences above certain heights, retaining walls beyond a set height, or projects near property lines may require permits or approvals. We’ll flag any requirements during the estimate and can guide you through the process.
Interlocking (Driveways, Patios & Walkways) - FAQs
Most projects land in a range of $18–$32 per sq ft, driven by base depth, excavation, access, paver choice, edging, and complexity (steps, curves, borders). We’ll confirm on site and provide a written quote.
Retaining Walls & Armour Stone - FAQs
Heights and conditions vary by municipality. As a rule of thumb, taller walls, walls supporting slopes/driveways, or tiered walls may require engineered design and permits. We’ll advise after the site visit.
Sod & Lawn Installation - FAQs
Late spring through early fall. We prep the base, install premium sod, and provide a two-week watering plan to encourage deep rooting.
Fences & Privacy Screens - FAQs
Height limits depend on municipal bylaws (front/side/rear yards differ). We’ll build to your city’s rules and your approved design.
Scheduling, Access & Warranty
Peak season books quickly. We recommend booking 2–4 weeks ahead. We’ll give you a target start window and keep you updated on weather impacts.
Pricing & Payment - FAQs
Excavation depth, base materials, disposal, access, layout complexity, steps/edging, and your material selections (pavers, stone, fence style). Storm-water or grading fixes can add scope.
