Landscaping, sod and concrete in Lakeshore.
Lakeshore stretches along Lake St. Clair, from Tecumseh out past Belle River. Lots of newer homes there need a yard built from scratch, and we can build all of it: grading, sod, concrete, beds and fencing.
What we do in Lakeshore.
New build or older home, here's everything we do in Lakeshore.
What to know in Lakeshore.
Lakeshore has a lot of newer homes, a lot of waterfront, and a permit rule for every fence.
Sod installation in Lakeshore
Newer homes often need a lawn from scratch. Sod on bare ground runs about $1.25–$1.75 per sq ft before HST, and about $1.50–$2.00 per sq ft where an old lawn has to come out first.
Water on the lawn
Lakeshore is flat, so water can sit after it rains. Levelling the yard and sloping it away from the house is usually the first fix, and it comes before sod or concrete.
Fence permits in Lakeshore
Lakeshore requires a building permit for all fence installation, with a site plan and a sketch of the fence. The Town's by-law allows 1.8 m in side and back yards, 1.2 m in front yards and 0.9 m within 7.5 m of a corner.
Driveway permits in Lakeshore
Public Works permits moved online in 2026. Driveway work needs a pre-pour inspection before the concrete or asphalt goes down, and staff have up to five business days to attend, so that time has to go in the schedule.
Watering new sod in Lakeshore
Homes on the Union Water system have lawn watering limits from May 1 to September 30: alternate days, between 5 and 8 a.m. or 6 p.m. and midnight. New sod can get a temporary exemption permit from the Municipality.
Lots on Lake St. Clair
Waterfront lots have stricter fence rules in the back yard, and they may be regulated by the Essex Region Conservation Authority. Check before placing fill or changing the grade.

Common questions in Lakeshore
How much does landscaping cost in Lakeshore?
As a rough guide, before HST, new sod with the old lawn taken out runs $1.50–$2.00 per sq ft, a concrete patio $12–$16 per sq ft and a wood fence $35–$55 per linear ft. We measure at the free estimate and give you a written quote the same day.
Can you build a yard from scratch on a new Lakeshore home?
Yes, start to finish. Grading first, then soil, sod or turf, then the driveway, walkway, beds and fence. One quote and one schedule for all of it.
Do you come out to Comber and Stoney Point?
Yes. Anywhere in Lakeshore gets the same free on-site estimate and the same written quote that day.
Water sits on my lawn after it rains. Can grading fix that?
Often, yes. We level the yard and slope it so water runs away from the house, and bring in fresh soil where the old soil is poor.
How soon can you start?
Usually in about two weeks.
Is the work covered by a warranty?
Yes. We offer a one-year warranty, and we'll go over what it covers for your job at the free estimate. We're also fully insured and WSIB covered.
