Residential Landscaping Projects in Edmonton
Grading, sod, patios and fire features for Edmonton homes, built on the same base standard so they hold through freeze-thaw.
New Build Landscaping in Edmonton
Final grading and sod
Final grading comes first, with a certificate from an Alberta Land Surveyor and the City minimum slope away from your foundation (5% over 2 m). Most Edmonton lots run $1,500 – $3,500. Sod follows right after, at $1.00 – $2.50 per square foot.
Artificial grass and putting greens
Artificial turf goes in after grading in place of sod, for lawns you would rather not mow. A backyard putting green is built the same way, sized to your lot on a proper turf base. Priced after a free site visit.
Trees and shrubs
Trees and shrubs are planted after grading and sod, as part of the same new build job. Trees go in at 50 mm caliper or larger, so the yard has some size from the first season, and you deal with one crew.
Fences
Cedar, composite, vinyl and pressure-treated fences, built once the grade is final so the lot is set before the posts go in. Every fence is priced after a free site visit, with materials and layout agreed before work starts.
Residential Hardscaping: Patios, Walkways and Retaining Walls
Patios and walkways
Paving stone patios and walkways are built on geotextile fabric, 6 inches of road crush and 1 inch of crushed limestone, finished with polymeric sand joints, so they stay level through freeze-thaw and weeds stay out. Patios run $35 – $45 per sq ft installed, including excavation and base.
Retaining walls
Retaining walls hold a slope or build a tiered yard, turning a sloped lot into usable space. We build them on their own or as part of a patio job. Walls added to a patio run $45 – $85 per sq ft of wall face.
Seating walls
A seating wall gives a patio an edge and extra places to sit, so the space works for a group without more furniture. We build it as part of the patio job. Seat walls run $50 – $100 per linear foot.
Lighting
Path, step and wall lights make the yard safe and usable after dark. We place them to show off the stone and plantings without throwing glare at your windows. Landscape lighting runs $500 – $3,000, depending on the number of fixtures.
Outdoor Living: Kitchens, Fire and Water Features, Decks and Pergolas
Outdoor kitchens
A built-in grill and counter turn the patio into a place you cook, not just sit. We plan the cooking area, counter and seating together so they work as one space. An outdoor kitchen runs $8,000 – $25,000+.
Fire features
A fire pit or fire table gives the yard a spot to gather once the evening cools off. We build it into the patio so the surround, seating and walkways all line up. Built-in fire pits run $1,500 – $4,000.
Water features
A water feature adds sound and movement to a quiet corner of the yard. We size it to the space and set it where you can see and hear it from the patio. Priced after a free site visit, since size and pumps vary.
Decks and pergolas
Cedar, composite or pressure-treated decks, with a pergola over the top where you want shade and a defined space. Footings are set for Edmonton frost. Priced after a free site visit, since size and materials vary.
What Our Clients Are Saying
Dakota Joslin
Couldn't be happier with the work Steve and his crew did on my little yard! Price was very reasonable and they were able to get the work done quite quickly. Steve explained exactly what would be done for resodding my lawn and gave clear instructions on how to care for it afterward. Highly recommend working with Serene Landscaping!

Common Questions
Quick answers about cost, process, final grade, and what to expect when you book.
Get a QuoteEvery project is shaped by the size of the space, the condition of the site and the materials you choose, so pricing varies from one property to the next. Most residential projects range from $5,000 to $50,000+. We confirm exact numbers in a written estimate after a site visit.
Larger builds like paving stone patios, full yard landscaping and final grading are typically scheduled 3–6 weeks out, depending on the season. Smaller jobs like fencing can sometimes start within a few weeks. We confirm your timeline in the quote. We recommend booking in March to get a spot in mid May or early June.
Most projects take between 1 day and 3 weeks. Simple sod installation or cleanup may take 1–2 days, a patio installation typically takes 3–5 days, and complete landscape renovations can take 1–3 weeks. We provide specific timelines in your project quote.
We call you within 24 hours to book a free site visit. We review your property, talk through your project, and send you a clear, itemized written quote. There is no obligation.
Scope, size and materials drive most of the price. A larger area, a premium stone, or a lot that needs grading or excavation first will cost more than a simple sod job, and access to the yard matters too. That is why we measure on site before we quote, and the written quote itemizes each part.
Grading comes first, then sod, then patios, walkways and retaining walls. Grading sets the slope that carries water away from your home, so everything built after it sits at the right levels. If you phase the work across seasons, we document each phase so later work does not undo the earlier work.
Hardscape installs carry a 3-year workmanship warranty, and landscape installs carry a 1-year workmanship warranty. Both are included with the job at no extra cost. The warranty covers how the work was built, which is why we put so much into base prep and grading before anything goes on top.
