Deciding on who to work with for a significant pool and landscaping project is never without its risks. Will the project be completed on time and on budget? Will it exceed expectations? Will the process be smooth, and most importantly, fun?

Tom and his team replaced our retaining wall, or what was left of it ( very old! ). From the start we felt comfortable with Tom and his vision of the final product. His team was hard working all day and clearly have a great working

Frequently asked

Good questions, straight answers.

How deep does the base need to be?+

Patios need roughly 6" of compacted granular base; driveways need 10–12". Anything less and you'll see settling within a few seasons. We don't cut this corner.

Will weeds grow between the pavers?+

We use polymeric jointing sand, which hardens after activation and dramatically reduces weed growth. Routine maintenance keeps it looking sharp.

Can interlock handle Canadian winters?+

Yes — when installed on a proper base with the right edge restraint and jointing, interlock handles freeze-thaw far better than poured concrete, which tends to crack.
