Landscape Architects & Landscape Designers in Canada

“Martine is very passionate and knowledgeable about gardens! She provided valuable advice on the selection and placement of plants that would thrive in our environment and meet our low-maintenance requirements.”

“I've worked with Keith and his crews to restore the grounds of a heritage property. They did a marvellous job and are conscientious and professional.”

“Very professional, full-service landscaping company. Installed a front-yard parking pad, retaining walls, and full garden landscaping for our Beaches house. Helped us through the permit process, quick and professional hardscaping, followed by a really terrific garden designer and great plantings that really work for our century home and are low-maintenance! Peter Solti and crew have also responded to our calls for help promptly on several occasions and most recently dropped off a free replacement capstone for one on a wall which had fallen and broken. We would highly recommend them.”

“They did an amazing job. What made then stand out for me was that A) the worked my my schedule and had it done exactly on time and B) were constantly cleaning during the construction and landscaping. It was always a clean and professional job site”

“We built a new home 10 years ago and contacted Welwyn to design the landscaping from scratch. She was always professional, pleasant and extremely knowledgable. The final design was based on Feng Shui principles and she made sure that during the construction, she was present to ensure that the huge rocks were placed in the right positions. We were delighted with the final product. We have had many people stop or ring the doorbell to ask who the designer was. A few years ago we contacted her to give the garden an update and again she was very creative and listened carefully to our needs. For the last 2 years we have been using her company to do the weekly maintenance, a new service, and again, have been very pleased.”

“We have a house and an acre of land in Metchosin, BC. It is a semi-rural part of Victoria so very lush, green and always growing! As we have not yet moved there full time, the garden was getting ahead of us and we were completely overwhelmed with the amount of work and at a loss for any ideas to get it under control and looking good. I went to a neighbourhood Garden Centre and basically said: "I need help" and they gave me Theresa Balak's card. I was ever so grateful! Theresa came over,to see us and we talked about what we envisioned, our lifestyle and our ideas and wishes for plants and the overall look we had in mind. She took measurements, created comprehensive drawings of the dream and gave us hope that we could find a solution that worked for us - easy care, drought and deer resistant and beautiful. She recommended three possible landscapers as well. Her flexibility and yet clear direction for neophyte gardeners was so appreciated. Her design and the landscaping of Natural Solutions has turned out out-of-control front yard into a beautiful display. (I am sure our neighbours are thankful and the deer travel through it with rarely a sniff or a nibble!) Thanks so much, Theresa!!”

“I hired Take Root Gardens in March of 2014 for a total overhaul of our modest Vancouver backyard. Not only was the execution flawless, they added a lot of value in the design and planning stage, with some great suggestions that worked out really well. During the actual work, they were always right on time, took very good care of our property during the work, and cleaned up spotlessly, even going so far as to powerwash our deck, which was not part of the project. What stood out the most, was how much care they took, and how detail oriented they were. The overall quote was very reasonable, and they came in right on budget and on time. I would hire Ty & Matt again in a second and highly recommend them.”

“Linda has great vision and was able to accurately build what I could only vaguely describe. She is professional in her conduct, and completed my project on time and on budget. Her personality worked well with other contractors on site, and there were no problems working with tradespeople on site.I was happy to recommend her to friends needing her services, and they too were very pleased with the quality, and beauty, of her work. The mind of an artist, and the actions of a businesswoman!”

“As an Interior Decorator I have worked with and been exposed to many trades and contractors, our experience with Earthscape was a dream. All staff is zealous about their work and you really sense that they want to be there for you to achieve the desired result. Earthscape constructed a drystack retaining wall in our backyard and a waterfall into our pool. Our initial consultation with Mark generated many great ideas and we easily came together to finalize the design decisions. The crew was on site everyday and amazingly the wall was finished on time and on budget despite terrible rain and mud. I was impressed with the excellent care they fostered on their tools and equipment, certainly indicative of the level of thoroughness executed by this company. At all times they were genuinely respectful not only to me and my family but to my elderly neighbours who were quite concerned about the whole project. We love the end result and have absolutely no hesitation recommending Earthscape.”

“I have worked with Paul and his team on a number of projects that they have designed. Paul's level of professionalism, integrity and commitment to his clients is exceptional. Makes the execution of what can sometimes be a complicated landscape design and installation worry free.”
