Land-Con is a pool and landscaping company in Toronto and southern Ontario with over 25 years in the industry. Our team includes landscape designers and architects, who transform residential and commercial properties into functional outdoor spaces.
We start every project with a site visit and a design plan before construction begins. The same in-house team that designs the project builds it, and our workmanship carries a 5-year warranty.
Backyards, front yards, pools, interlocking, decks, pergolas, outdoor kitchens and lighting are planned together, so the finished property follows one design instead of separate jobs.
Our service regions include Toronto, Aurora, Etobicoke, Mississauga, Oakville, Burlington, Woodbridge, East York, Maple, Thornhill, Newmarket, Kleinburg, North York, Pickering, Concord, Vaughan, King, Richmond Hill, Markham, and Whitby. Residential and commercial clients in these areas can call 416.504.5263 to arrange a site visit.
For more than 25 years, Land-Con has been helping homeowners and businesses create award-winning outdoor spaces throughout Toronto and Southern Ontario. Our team of landscape designers, architects, project managers, and construction specialists work together to deliver complete landscape design and build solutions.
From luxury backyard renovations and custom swimming pools to front yard transformations, interlocking, outdoor living spaces, pergolas, and landscape construction, we bring decades of hands-on experience to every project.
Toronto lots are often tight, sloped or close to ravines, and winters are hard on hardscape. We set grading and drainage before paving, and prepare interlocking and stamped concrete bases for freeze-thaw cycles. Properties near ravines or watercourses may fall under the City of Toronto’s ravine and natural feature protection rules or Toronto and Region Conservation Authority regulated areas, and we check what applies at the site visit.
Land-Con has successfully completed hundreds of residential and commercial landscaping projects across Toronto, Vaughan, Markham, Richmond Hill, Oakville, Mississauga, Burlington, Aurora, Newmarket, and surrounding GTA communities.
Our team combines landscape architecture, design expertise, construction knowledge, and project management experience, so each project is designed, built and managed by one team.
Our design-build process covers custom outdoor living environments, luxury pools, outdoor kitchens, interlocking driveways, retaining walls, and complete backyard transformations, with an emphasis on quality craftsmanship and long-term durability.

As a landscape design and building company in Toronto, we specialize in turning underutilized spaces into functional areas for relaxing and hosting friends and family. Our designers start from how you use the property and what the site allows.
From hardscapes to softscapes, including gardens and flowerbeds, we manage every aspect of landscaping design and construction. Our Toronto-based landscapers recommend materials, layouts and plantings that suit your requirements and the site. The same approach applies to a front yard, backyard, porch, patio, or any other part of your property, and our landscaping ideas are laid out in a design plan before work starts.
Good landscape design makes your home more comfortable and attractive and adds to your property’s value. Contact us, and our landscaping design experts in Toronto will visit your property to suggest a suitable plan. Our landscape design services cover your front yard, backyard, and even indoor landscaping. Learn more about our landscape designers and architects.
We create and execute landscape design plans from start to finish, working to a schedule agreed at the start. With over 25 years of experience in the industry, we have the resources, machinery, and specialists to complete all our landscape construction projects. As landscape contractors in Toronto, we manage the whole build, from site preparation and hardscape to decks, pergolas, planting and lighting, under one project manager.
Make your time with friends and family more enjoyable and comfortable with a deck or pergola that suits your needs. We provide recommendations for decks and pergolas that complement the style and architecture of your property.
Properly installed interlocking gives driveways, walkways and patios a durable, low-maintenance surface. The base preparation and drainage underneath decide how well it holds up through Ontario’s freeze-thaw cycles. Our skilled team of experts for landscaping in Toronto offers a variety of layout options and guidance on materials and installation, including stamped concrete.
Hardscaping covers the structural, non-plant parts of a landscape: interlocking, stamped concrete, retaining walls, steps, patios and walkways. We plan the base, drainage and edging for each one, and handle grade changes and retaining walls at the design stage, so the finished surfaces stay level and drain properly.
We design and build landscapes for commercial properties and condominiums as well as private homes. Entrances, walkways, planting and lighting are planned around how residents, tenants and visitors use the site. See our commercial and condo landscaping services.
Our residential work includes luxury backyards with pools, outdoor kitchens, cabanas and lighting, designed as one property. Browse completed work in our featured projects or see our awards.
Real reviews from real backyards we've built across the GTA.
Land-Con transformed our sloping, unused backyard into a space we'll enjoy for years — new deck, privacy trees, a custom shed, and an 18' swim spa with a covered grilling station. "Coffee on my deck just tastes better."
A complete backyard transformation — full demolition, new inground pool, hardscaping, electrical, plumbing, and carpentry, all handled in-house including permits. Professional, responsive, and the results speak for themselves.

A landscaping company designs, builds, and improves outdoor spaces such as front yards, backyards, patios, pools, gardens, walkways, driveways, and outdoor living areas. A design-build company like Land-Con handles the design and the construction together.
A landscape designer plans the layout, materials and planting. A landscape contractor builds it: site preparation, hardscape, carpentry, planting and lighting. Land-Con does both in-house, so the design is drawn with construction in mind and one team is accountable from plan to finished build.
Professional landscape design helps maximize property value, improve functionality, enhance curb appeal, and create outdoor spaces that are customized to your lifestyle and property requirements. A plan made before construction also avoids drainage, grading and layout problems that are costly to fix later.
Landscaping costs vary with project size, materials, site access, grading and drainage needs, and features such as pools, outdoor kitchens or retaining walls. Land-Con’s design-build projects typically start from about $80,000, and our project budgets range from $80,000–$150,000 up to $400,000 and above. We price each project after a site visit and design plan, so the quote reflects your actual property.
