See Your Landscape Design in a Lifelike 3D

Our skilled designers use advanced 3D project planning software to help you visualize your garden design, interlocking patio, asphalt driveway, or other landscaping before construction begins. We’ll work closely with you to create a detailed layout, compare materials, and handle other aspects of your project. We aim to provide a photo-realistic 3D walkthrough of your finished outdoor space.

AHS is by far the most preferred contractor for landscaping services in Mississauga, and for good reason. We aim to help residential and commercial property owners bring their landscape visions to life.

Functional Equipment for the Job

We own over 30 pieces of heavy-duty landscaping equipment, such as skid steers, excavators, mechanical wheelbarrows, and more. Whether you need hardscaping installations, lawn care, or garden maintenance, our team is fully equipped to complete the job on time.

In-House Technicians

At Action Home Services, we have an in-house team of over 100 full-time landscapers and other experts in various aspects of residential and commercial landscaping. These individuals are trained, certified, and maintain professionalism when handling our clients’ projects.

10-Year Wormanship & Product Warranties

Given that, we recommend and help source premium materials from top suppliers in Canada to ensure durability. We also provide a 10-year written workmanship warranty and pass along all product-specific manufacturer warranties to you.

100% Client Satisfaction Guaranteed

AHS has maintained a 5-star client satisfaction rating for more than a decade. Therefore, you can trust our team to deliver functional and stunning outdoor spaces that complement your property’s curb appeal. Remember, client satisfaction is among the core values that guide everything we do.

As one of the best landscapers in the region, we have noticed that backyards in Mississauga and the surrounding areas are increasingly being designed as functional extensions of homes. Here are the landscaping solutions we provide in Mississauga, Oakville, and across the Greater Toronto Area.

Custom Outdoor Lighting

When installed correctly, customized LED lighting systems can enhance the appearance and usability of your property after sunset. For instance, we install outdoor lighting that combines climate-adaptive finishes, such as solid brass, with matte-black minimalism for homes in Port Credit, Lakeview, and other nearby neighborhoods along the Lakeshore Road.

Properties in the newer suburban developments, such as Churchill Meadows and Erin Mills, have small backyards. For such homes, we recommend and install smart zoning lighting tailored to your tight space. Trust our team for a fully customized outdoor lighting system.

Efficient Yard Drainage

We have been in business for over a decade and have seen firsthand various drainage issues across Mississauga neighborhoods. For instance, residential properties in Dixie-Dundas are exposed to water overflow from the Little Etobicoke Creek channels. To fix such drainage issues, we install armor-stone retaining walls and ensure protective grading.

On the other hand, Lisgar is a notorious hotspot for subsurface drainage, where homes and commercial properties suffer from intense groundwater seepage. For such issues, our team recommends and installs subsurface French drains, ensures precision grading, and exterior foundation sealing. Regardless of the drainage issue you’re experiencing, we’re ready to help. Contact us and schedule a free consultation.

Heated Driveway Installation

The City of Mississauga offers a windrow-clearing program to clear about a 3-meter-wide space along your single- or double-residential driveway. Unfortunately, the city-owned plows take 4-6 hours to arrive after the storm. Alternatively, you could use salt (which will damage your driveway) or pay for professional snow removal services, which is a costly option in the long run.

If you no longer wish to return home to shovel more than six inches of snow from your driveway, then let our team help install a heated driveway.

Commercial Landscapes Tailored to Your Brand

At Action Home Services, we provide commercial landscaping solutions designed for Mississauga’s climate and busy commercial properties. Whether you own a retail plaza near Square One, manage an office building in Meadowvale, operate a restaurant in Port Credit, or oversee a commercial property along Hurontario Street, we’re here to help.

Our team creates landscapes that make your business’s outdoor area more inviting, easier to maintain, and built to withstand freeze-thaw cycles and other harsh weather elements.

We designed and refined our custom process to help homeowners and commercial property owners solve the right landscaping problem. Here are the steps we follow.

Step 1: Initial Consultation and a Free Estimate

You have a reason for reaching out, and we’re ready to listen to your landscaping frustrations. Perhaps you’re tired of a soggy yard every rainfall, a lawn that never seems to grow properly, or an outdoor space that doesn’t support your family’s relaxation and entertaining needs.

We’ll listen to your concerns, inspect your property, identify the cause of the problem, and recommend practical solutions. Also, we’ll provide a free, no-obligation estimate.

Step 2: Design around Your Lifestyle

Next, we’ll transform your ideas into a detailed landscape plan. Using 3D renderings and material recommendations, you’ll see how your finished outdoor space will look before construction begins. This gives you the opportunity to refine the layout, finishes, and features until every detail feels right.

Step 3: Bringing Your Vision to Life

The AHS team, comprising experienced, certified architects, builders, and other professionals, will begin implementing the finalized project design or plan. From site preparation and grading to patios, pools, planting, lighting, and complete backyard renovations, we pride ourselves on handling each phase in-house. Therefore, you can expect quality workmanship, clear communication, and lasting results.

Step 4: Final Walkthrough & Warranty

Before we consider your landscaping project complete, we’ll walk through every aspect with you to ensure it meets your expectations. We’ll explain how your new landscape was built and answer any questions you have. You’ll also receive your workmanship warranty and any manufacturer warranties, so you know your investment is protected long after we leave your property.

Homeowners and commercial property owners in Mississauga don’t need a permit for basic top dressing or lawn care. However, they must obtain a permit for landscaping work that involves structural adjustments, such as removing mature trees, building a retaining wall that’s 3.2 feet or higher, and more. Our team will assess your project, determine the necessary permits, and obtain them.

Depending on the complexity of your project, you may need the following forms of permits.

Building Permit

A building permit is necessary if your elevated outdoor structure is at least 2 feet off the ground or if you plan to build a detached feature that is larger than 10 square meters. To obtain this permit, you can submit your application and all supporting documents through the City of Mississauga ePlans portal. 

Swimming Pool Enclosure Permit

A pool enclosure permit is necessary if your landscaping project involves pool installation, a hot tub, or a pond that is deeper than 2 feet. You can submit your permit application to the Compliance & Licensing Enforcement (on the ground floor of City Hall, 300 City Center Drive). Remember, our customer care services cover guidance and the support you need to obtain these permits.

Tree Injury or Removal Permit

Suppose there are trees (15 cm diameter or larger) and 1.4 meters taller than needed to be cut. In that case, Mississauga by-laws state that you need a permit. You can apply for it via the city’s Tree Removal Services website. Note that our team will assess your yard, determine if you need the tree removal permit, and help you obtain it.

Boulevard Garden Permit

Perhaps you wish to transform the area between your property line and the public sidewalk or road (boulevard). You need a permit. You can mail your applications to Permit Administration Services at 3185 Mavis Road.

When you choose our team for Mississauga landscaping services, we’ll handle the hard work of determining the necessary permits and help you obtain them.

It’s crucial to note that the location of your home can influence landscaping options and costs. Think about a home at the bottom curve of the sloping cul-de-sac near the Credit River valley, especially streets off Barbertown Road or Mullet Creek.

During heavy spring thaws, stormwater from five uphill neighbors cascades directly into this backyard. That means a simple $10,000 patio project could easily cost more because the contractor must install a commercial-grade French drain system connected to a dry well or a sump pump to divert water away from the basement wall. Here are the estimated costs for various landscaping services in Mississauga.

At Action Home Services, we work closely with you to assess your specific property conditions, accessibility, and long-term goals to create a landscaping plan. Request a free estimate and get reliable information about your project.
