Ted was professional and pleasant to work with, and the project turned out amazing! He was helpful in leading us to stonework choices that would stay in our budget, and handled the tree permits. We get so many compliments! I would definitely work with Ted again. I will add pictures in the spring when all this snow is gone! **Comment from Ted Hobson Designer At Allweather Landscape:** > Thanks Stephanie for the kind words > I too am very excited for the spring to come! **★★★★★ — Todd Guglielmin, Dec. 2017** > When embarking on our landscape project we decided to spend a little more time upfront finding the right landscaper that best fit for our needs. Our goal was to find a company that was local to Toronto East/Beaches and well-balanced between design and completing the work. We found some companies were design only and others were more focused on executing a plan. After putting the word out, a friend recommended Ted and Hobson Landscapes. We never looked back and are very pleased with Ted and his team’s creative ideas, many that we would have never come up with on our own. We appreciated their consultative approach and flexibility that allowed up to stay within our budget. We have recommended Ted to a number of our friends and neighbours and would not hesitate to do so in the future! **Comment from Ted Hobson Designer At Allweather Landscape:** > Thanks Todd! > It was a please working with you. I'm looking forward to the spring when the plants come up and we can get some nice pictures. > All the best. **★★★★ — Sal Polito, Sept. 2017** > Great team! Really enjoyed working with Ted and his team. They were very focused & disciplined in their approach to the work. Appreciated the fact that they listened & responded quickly to my questions and feedback. Very pleased with the final outcome **Comment from Ted Hobson Designer At Allweather Landscape:** > Thanks Sal for taking the time to write a review, I really appreciate it. > Let me know how the drainage is working and if we managed to keep the water from running in off the driveway. > Also, any feed back as to how I could improve things would be very much appreciated as well. > Ted ## Selected projects - [Forest Hill North Deck Patio](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/forest-hill-north-deck-patio-pj-vj~7226598) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 46 - [Parkwood Ravine Deck & Patio](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/parkwood-ravine-deck-and-patio-pj-vj~7381933) - Location: Toronto, ON - Photos: 10 - [Downtown Toronto Backyard](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/downtown-toronto-backyard-pj-vj~7127350) - Location: Toronto, ON - Photos: 10 - [Castle Frank](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/castle-frank-pj-vj~6489518) - Location: Toronto, ON - Photos: 11 - Description: Allweather Landscape was approached by a client based on a recommendation from their builder in 2019 to produce a landscape, design and construction proposal.

Both for the deck and for the fence?** *(in Photo Questions)* A: This is cedar for the main part of the fence and Ipe for the shelf cut-in Also, the decking is Ipe, post and rail is cedar. Ipe is a Brazilian hardwood. Very durable and looks amazing... also a little expensive. **Q: dimensions** *(in Photo Questions)* I have an equally minuscule area to put a garden shed - would you please share the dimensions? I have about 25" deep, 4-5' wide and 5-6' tall. Thank you in advance. A: Hi, I'm sorry for the late reply. That shed is 3.5' x 8' Pretty small but enough to store garden tools and some cushions etc. Hope that helps! **Q: What are the dimensions of this shed? Looks great!** *(in Photo Questions)* A: Hi, Thank! It is roughly 4' x 8' **Q: What is the size of the shower?** *(in Photo Questions)* What is the size of the shower? Dimensions? A: It is 32" x 39" x 78" Made by Ove Decors **Q: Sconces** *(in Photo Questions)* Do you know who makes the wall sconces? Thanks! A: yes it is wood framed with cement board and then a 1" limestone veneer. --- *Source: Houzz professional profile. Reflects the profile as of 2026-08-14.*
