What areas in Ontario does Lush Landscape Service cover?

We serve homeowners across the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area including Hamilton, Burlington, Oakville, Mississauga, Milton, Toronto, Vaughan, Richmond Hill, Georgetown, and Brampton. Our crews are based locally in these communities, so we understand the soil conditions, bylaws, and climate challenges specific to each city. If your property falls outside these areas but is within the Golden Horseshoe, contact us to confirm availability.

What types of landscaping services do you offer?

We specialize in four core categories: Interlock and Specialty Paving (driveways, patios, walkways, pool decks), Concrete Services (stamped, exposed aggregate, plain concrete), Structural Hardscape and Repair (retaining walls, steps, foundation waterproofing), and Softscaping and Lifestyle Enhancements (garden design, sod installation, outdoor kitchens, landscape lighting). Each service is tailored to your property and local conditions. Visit our Services page for detailed information about each offering.

Are you licensed and insured for landscaping work in Ontario?

Yes. Lush Landscape Service carries full commercial general liability insurance and WSIB (Workplace Safety and Insurance Board) coverage for all our crews. We are members of Landscape Ontario, the provincial trade association that sets industry standards for quality and professionalism. You can verify Landscape Ontario membership at landscapeontario.com. We provide proof of insurance to every client before work begins.

What warranty do you provide on your landscaping work?

We provide a 10-year workmanship warranty on all hardscaping installations including interlocking, concrete, and retaining walls. This covers structural integrity, base settlement, and joint stability under normal residential use. Paver and material manufacturers such as Unilock, Techo-Bloc, and Permacon provide additional product warranties, often lifetime, that supplement our workmanship coverage. Softscaping installations carry a 1-year plant health guarantee with proper watering compliance.

What makes Lush Landscape different from other landscaping companies?

Three things set us apart: First, we are local operators who live and work in the communities we serve, so we understand specific soil conditions, bylaws, and climate challenges. Second, our 10-year workmanship warranty is among the strongest in Ontario. Third, we use only CSA-certified materials and follow ICPI (Interlocking Concrete Pavement Institute) standards for every installation, ensuring your project is built to last through decades of Ontario weather.

What soil conditions affect landscaping in Richmond Hill?

Richmond Hill has heavy clay in the southern urban areas transitioning to sandy glacial deposits on the Oak Ridges Moraine in the north. Properties in South Richvale and Bayview Hill sit on dense clay requiring extensive base preparation. Northern areas near Oak Ridges benefit from better-draining sandy soils but face different drainage challenges. The Oak Ridges Moraine is a critical groundwater recharge area with strict development regulations.

What permits do I need for landscaping in Richmond Hill?

City of Richmond Hill Planning and Building Services requires permits for driveway modifications, retaining walls over 1 metre, and accessory structures. Properties on or near the Oak Ridges Moraine face additional environmental regulations under the Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Plan. The Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) regulates development near watercourses. We verify all requirements during our assessment. Visit richmondhill.ca/building for details. TRCA: trca.ca.

How does the Oak Ridges Moraine affect landscaping in Richmond Hill?

The Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Plan regulates development on and near the moraine to protect groundwater recharge and natural heritage features. Properties in northern Richmond Hill may face restrictions on impervious surface coverage, grading, and tree removal. Permeable paving systems are particularly beneficial in moraine areas as they allow water to infiltrate rather than running off. We design with these environmental requirements in mind.
