“Le Paysagiste built and installed a concrete pool with the whole landscape and pavers. Top notch work. Very nice workers!”

“Our inner city landscape project faced many constraints and challenges. We have a large space by inner city standards (but small relative to suburban spaces), yet the space is awkwardly situated between two structures, heavily shaded in most areas, with a few small sections in full sun just outside of the "cone of shade" from the neighbouring building. The heavy shade and extensive invasive roots from a large tree were also a challenge. Optimal circulation routes for people and conveniently located dedicated bicycle storage were additional requirements that we asked associate architect Tracey to address. We also asked for a space that would be subdivided into room-like areas for dining and sitting. Also, we asked for consideration of sight lines from interior spaces, and use of materials for hardscaping areas that would echo some of our interiors. This all had to be accomplished within a jurisdiction known for its strict enforcement of what some would consider overly picky bylaws. This project, although modest in area, required more than a computer aided sketch by a self-trained garden contractor! The process with Hodgins associes follows a professional architectural style, with an exchange of proposals, sketches and final drafts. The combination of challenges on our site were handled with imagination yet with close attention to our feedback and input at all stages. This included phases such as project planning, choice of materials, choice of planting material, handling of permits, tenders and hiring of contractors, and typical trouble shooting problems during the actual building phase. Because we had so many comments and requests along the way this project took well over one year from start to finish. In summary, our project was handled with a very high degree of professionalism. Planning was an authentic dialogue so we ended up with exactly want we expected, and administration and project management could not have been any better. We would especially recommend Hodgins associes for those projects that have specific difficulties or multiple challenges to overcome.”

“The project was for a new construction and everything needed to be done. Yarek Design made us a great plan for the entire property which included stone work for the front entrance, driveway, access to the backyard. The backyard included a beatifull raised patio with staircase on 2 sides down a a large patio surrounding the pool. The project was finalised with another great plan for all of the annuals, perenials, shrubs and trees to meet the city requirements but with some great selections of plants we did nit know existed. Yarek's knowldege of the different species was quite impressive and allowed us to create something unique in our neighborhood. We are very satisfied, and definitely recommend Yarek Design.”
