What Our Clients Say

Trusted by Hundreds of Happy Home Owners

Novak Landscaping provided a new landscaped front for our company. The result was a complete updated appearance, with armour stone, shrubs and a fresh, manicured look. Heidy and her crew were thorough in preparing the gardens and completing the project as promised...

We are so happy that we chose Novak Landscaping. We were struggling with how best to address our challenging backyard which had grading issues and make the space more useable and low maintenance. The work involved building a retaining wall, installing weeping tile and installing pavers and steps.

The team at Novak Landscaping are incredibly professional, knowledgeable and they consider every detail in their work. We have had an outstanding experience working with this local, family company and recommend them to anyone looking for quality landscaping work.

Adam Novak brought his crew and did some major landscaping work at our home this week. We've seen many landscapers at work over the years but never anyone like him. He is exceptional.Works twice as fast as everyone else, keeps his prices reasonable, and is very flexible, as well as punctual.

Adam and crew have provided Landscaping services at the property where I live.(Lakeshore & St.Paul, Burl).From day one they all have been a dedicated, committed, friendly and professional. Their work is impeccable and efficient both Summer and winter.

Landscape Design
& Softscape

Softscape & Hardscape Design

Your site shouldn’t feel like a collection of planters dropped into random corners. We coordinate your softscape and hardscape from the start, ensuring that garden beds, stone features, and drainage work together. We focus on creating a seamless exterior that handles high foot traffic while maintaining a clean, professional profile.

Commercial-Grade, Local Horticulture

A great landscape design is useless if all the plants die off after the first winter. We draw on 50+ years of regional experience to select hardy specimen trees and perennials that are drought-resistant and salt-tolerant, ensuring your investment actually thrives in the Ontario climate.

Bring Your Outdoor Vision to Life

Hardscaping & Infrastructure

Built for Ontario

Ontario’s freeze-thaw cycles easily wreck amateur stonework. We prevent heaving and sunken pavers by carefully engineering the parts you don’t see, digging deep foundations and using heavy-duty aggregate bases. Whether it’s a walkway or a loading area, we build it to stay level and drain properly year after year.

Material Selection

A loose stone isn’t just an eyesore, it’s a liability. Commercial-grade materials help lock everything in place. Our focus for your site is precision leveling and proper drainage. Together, these help prevent ice patches and weed growth, keeping your site safe and accessible for employees, tenants and the public.

Precision Finishes

Longevity is in the details. We ensure every stone is perfectly leveled, install proper edge restraints to hold the structure in place, and use polymeric sand to lock joints and prevent weed growth.

Walkways & Paths

Elegant stone pathways that connect your front entrance to the rest of your site, improving flow and safety.

Custom Paving

Design and installation of flagstone or interlock paving to create defined zones around your buildings.

Interlock Driveways

Construction of high-load stone driveways engineered to handle vehicle weight while boosting curb appeal.

Safe, High-traffic Access

Replace salt-damaged concrete with heavy-duty stone built for constant use. We prioritize non-slip finishes and precise leveling to eliminate hazards and keep your site compliant.

Fencing & Woodwork

Building of wood or metal privacy fences, screens, and custom carpentry to frame your boundaries.

Water Features

Natural stone fountains, ponds, and waterfalls to add movement and tranquility.

Grading, Walls & Site Management

Maximise usable space

Don’t let steep slopes waste your square footage. Install engineered retaining walls to terrace your property, and turn unusable grades into functional space for parking, storage, or walkways.

Manage Water Runoff

Water pooling is a structural risk. We re-grade your site to ensure a positive slope, directing runoff away from your building and hardscape to prevent costly flooding and foundation damage.

Engineered stability

Retaining walls fail due to poor drainage and soil pressure. We build ours with proper granular backfill and structural reinforcement to ensure your walls stay upright and stable through every Ontario freeze-thaw cycle.

Natural Stone Walls

Armour stone and dry-stack limestone walls provide heavy-duty structural support. We build for the Ontario climate to manage steep grades and create flat site areas that last

Grading Solutions

Professional re-grading corrects negative slopes and uneven terrain. We ensure water flows away from your structures to prevent basement flooding, foundation damage, and winter ice buildup.

Drainage Systems

Stop site pooling and erosion. Industrial-grade catch basins, weeping tiles, and French drains keep your property dry, safe, and accessible in any weather.

Functional Steps

Installation of uniform stone steps (natural or pre-cast) for safe, easy navigation across grade changes.

Proven Quality in Landscaping

"Novak Landscaping has been our property maintenance crew for the past 35 years. They have been reliable, professional, reachable and responsive to our regular needs, and for any irregular issues that need attention, we can count on Novak. They have assisted us in looking after our commercial plaza and kept our tenants happy at all times. We have renewed our agreement with them year after year as they are good, honest and extremely reasonable for the services they provide. We would recommend Novak to any property owner."

"Novak Landscaping did the landscape construction for our parish in 1982 and still maintains our property today. Their vision back then was progressive and their excellence in maintenance today keeps us current. When crews come on site, everyone knows what needs to be done and they go that extra mile to make sure it is always done right. Novak's attention to details is noticed by our parishioners along with all the little things they do to keep our property looking good. However, not only are we pleased with their work, the friendly way in which they interact with us makes working with them a pleasure. We look forward to many more decades together!"

"Novak Landscaping has been a good fit for our 22 unit condominium corporation. Management has been very responsive to requests to periodically fine tune both our summer and winter maintenance programs and have assisted us with longer term site enhancement planning. On those few occasions when issues have arisen, they have quickly remedied the situation. We have been very satisfied with their service levels and have received excellent value for money."

"Had a fantastic experience with Clarke and Heidi from Novak landscaping! I purchased an older bungalow with a very overgrown and neglected garden. They helped with all aspects of design and were very respectful of my budget. They managed to complete everything on time during a pandemic when supplies were scarce ! They even offer yard maintenance which I am signing up for!"

"Great team at Novak landscaping. Professional, on time & on budget. They scoured everywhere to find enough block & cap product in our chosen type, size & colour combo to complete our retaining wall as promised, and it looks AMAZING! Highly recommend for your next project."

"We contacted several landscapers when planning our outdoor changes. Heidy was very thorough and knowledgeable in her assessment and advice. She helped us choose the products that would best accentuate the property and be the best value for money. The work was done in a timely fashion and was exactly what we wanted. We are so pleased with our choice of Novak Landscaping and the very professional and pleasing results, Thank you Heidy and your team. It was a pleasure working with you."

"We were so glad to have the complete Novak Team in the design and build of our patio. Their professional approach starting from their design right up to completion of the project was exemplary. Their fine work resulted in making our backyard entertainment environment an "oasis" not only for us but for our friends and family. Everyone's willingness to assist and coach in our decision making as to layout, design, selection of product was very helpful. We are appreciative of their hard work and dedication in the completion of our project. It gives us immense pride to acknowledge their workmanship and leadership and would strongly propose that anyone who is considering a project in the near future, should definitely approach Novak Landscaping for their involvement."

"My family was snowed in this weekend from the storm and Novak Landscaping did us a huge favour by clearing the driveway, which my mother and grandmother could not do. Their responsiveness to our call was extremely impressive and though they were very busy they fit us into their schedule. The gentleman who came by had been working a very long shift, yet was patient, accommodating and professional. We wanted to send a massive thank you to the whole team for not only helping us in such short notice but assisting the community during and after the storm as well. Sending the team lots of gratitude and appreciation from Lynda Ansty and her daughter! Thank you!"

"Clark and his landscape maintenance team have done exceptional work on our firm’s property. The team complete their work in an efficient and professional manner leaving our outdoor space in beautiful and pristine shape."

"Adam Novak brought his crew and did some major landscaping work at our home this week. We've seen many landscapers at work over the years but never anyone like him. He is exceptional. Works twice as fast as everyone else, keeps his prices reasonable, and is very flexible, as well as punctual. You cannot go wrong if you give him your business."

Their work is impeccable and efficient both Summer and winter. Covid practices by staff continue, and during breaks they can be seen distancing themselves. A quality job by a very professional bunch.
