Landscaping and Lawn Care in North Bay: Who Builds What

Two landscape construction companies for patios, driveways and retaining walls, and a lawn and snow company for the weekly work. What each one does and what to ask before you sign.

A flagstone patio built by Bouwers Design Landscaping in North Bay

North Bay yards deal with a long freeze and thaw, so the base under a patio matters as much as the stone on top. Here is who we have met and what each one builds.

Edwards Landscape and Construction: patios, walls, lawns and drainage

Kayden Edwards builds interlock driveways, paver patios, walkways and steps, retaining walls, natural flagstone, sod and new lawns, and grading and drainage. Every quote follows a visit: Kayden walks and measures the property with you, then the quote arrives in writing, broken down step by step. The crews work North Bay, Callander, Corbeil, Bonfield, Sturgeon Falls and Mattawa, and travel south to Huntsville and Muskoka. There is a three year workmanship warranty in writing.

Bouwers Design Landscaping: interlock and flagstone on a base built for winter

Dylan Bouwers builds interlock driveways, flagstone patios and retaining walls on a layered clear stone base made for freeze and thaw. Every install carries a five year workmanship warranty in writing on top of the paver manufacturer's warranty. A deposit holds your spot and orders materials, and the balance is paid against milestones, never in advance. Text is the fastest way to reach him.

Garland's Property Care: the weekly work, and the snow

Lucas Garland does weekly lawn cutting, spring and fall cleanups, aeration, overseeding, fertilizing and top dressing, and in winter snow plowing with a focus on commercial lots and laneways where a plow truck works best. Estimates are free. The family's handyman side, Garland's Property Maintenance run by Jeremy, takes on deck staining, painting, and tree and hedge removal. North Bay, Callander and Astorville.

What to ask before you sign

Three things, all answered on the profiles above: is the quote in writing and broken down, what is the workmanship warranty and is it in writing, and when is the money due. A written quote, a written warranty and milestone payments are what the owners here offer, so expect the same from anyone else.
