What different landscape budgets actually buy in the GTA

Nobody publishes prices, which makes it impossible to plan. Here is the shape of it without pretending to quote your property.

What moves the number

Area, access, how much has to come out first, depth of base required, whether grade and drainage need work, and how much saw time the design demands. Material choice matters least of all.

Small scope

A front walkway, a bed rebuild with edging and mulch, a repair and relay of a settled area. Usually days rather than weeks on site.

Mid scope

A rear patio with a seat wall and steps, or a driveway replacement. A week or two, one machine, real excavation and disposal.

Full build

Whole rear yard: grade, drainage, patio, walls, steps, lighting, planting and sod. Two to four weeks, and the stage where phasing across two seasons starts to make sense.

Ask for the quote itemised. It is the only way to see which tier you are actually in and what can be cut.
