Basically, we do it all. But to be more specific, Handcrafted Gardens offers a full range of hard- and soft-scape installations, including:
Natural stone and concrete paving for patios and walkways
Our highly qualified ICPI Certified installers exceed ICPI Standards (and that's saying something). At the same time we also provide artistic solutions that work in harmony and unity with the surrounding landscape. We are also certified AquaPave (Permeable Interlocking Concrete Paver) installers and we would be happy to keep your feet clean and dry while keeping our creeks and streams clean and wet the way they should be.
Patio and walkway repair and refurbishing
Tired of the weedy, mossy, or dingy looking concrete pavers or natural stone patio or walkways? Are bits sinking a little, or broken? We refurbish and renew, which saves you time and money in replacing the whole thing.
Natural stone retaining
Our approach is to maintain a natural look with our signature dry-stack Basalt walls, or our informal boulder retaining that always suits the location and meets soil retention requirements. For larger projects, we provide structural engineers to ensure maximum safety and durability.
Horticultural consultation and installation services
Handcrafted Gardens’ trained horticultural technicians will look after all your garden renovation and installation needs from basic consultation to garden design, plant selection, and planting. We also offer regular garden maintenance. We work with specialist tree services to address the big tree health and maintenance requirements.
Custom concrete installation
Whether it’s a concrete renovation or new installation, we do it all: walls, steps, special design features, concrete finished or stone faced.
Garden design
Our preferred approach to landscape installation is to start with a professional design, the foundation for best value and client satisfaction. We always look forward to providing high quality design services that meet your specific needs. No two gardens are alike!
Garden carpentry, including fences, gates, arbours and pergolas
We take the quality of finishing carpentry outside to create unique living spaces, and private gateways with specialty fences, gates, arbour, and pergolas.
Pond and water feature construction and repair
If you like the sound of water cascading into a natural stone pond, or a wetland with the colour of marsh plants or maybe a pond-less waterfall or other water feature, we can help. From design to full installation, Handcrafted Gardens will create a water feature to suit your needs.
Green roof and living wall installations
Our landscape installations mirror our low footprint ecological improvement philosophy. Our trained staff keeps up with new developments in green roof and living wall installation designs and techniques. We look forward to being part of promoting the new direction in the urban residential environment.
Remote location services
We also provide remote-location services to the Gulf Islands, or wherever you're having access challenges.
Geo-thermal installations
Handcrafted is dedicated to promoting simple and accessible geo-thermal technologies as an important contribution to energy saving. Ask us for more information about this growing trend.
Installation and project management consulting
For those that just want to know their landscaping options, or want design work done, or their project managed by professionals, we have qualified staff available. And for all you do-it-yourselfers out there, we're happy to provide guidance, consultation, and a little moral support.
