Hardscaping & property restoration
Interlock walkways, retaining walls and paved surfaces built for busy commercial sites and accessibility standards, plus the curb, step, fence and drainage repairs that keep getting pushed to next year.

Built to survive commercial traffic and Ottawa winters
A walkway built to residential standards doesn't last on a commercial site. Heavier traffic, salt, plow blades and freeze-thaw cycles break it down fast. We build on a deeper base with details that hold up, and because we're the ones plowing it in winter, we know exactly what it's going to take.
Interlock walkways
Entrances, paths and courtyards laid on a commercial-grade base so they stay level under traffic and plows.
Retaining walls
Engineered wall systems for grade changes, planters and parking edges, built with proper drainage behind the face.
Paved & concrete surfaces
Repairs and replacement of walkway slabs, pads and paved sections, graded so water leaves the surface instead of freezing on it.
Accessibility standards
Slopes, transitions, landings and curb cuts corrected so accessible routes work for the people who need them, in winter too.
Steps & landings
Rebuilt steps, landings and handrail bases at entrances where settlement and salt have done their damage.
Drainage features
Swales, catch-basin surrounds and regrading for the low spots that turn to ice every winter.
Repairs
The repairs that shouldn't wait another year
Most of these have been on somebody's list for a while without a price attached. We price them, put them in order and do them in one trip instead of five.
- Curb damage from plows, delivery trucks and settlement
- Heaved or sunken interlock at main entrances
- Cracked or spalled concrete walkways and landings
- Failing retaining walls and parking edge restraints
- Damaged fences, gates and bollards
- Knocked or leaning lamp posts and sign bases
- Low spots and drainage that ice over every winter
- Lawn and bed restoration after winter or utility work
