Winnipeg Landscaping, Start To Finish
Most of a yard is soil, water and light. Sort those out and the planting looks after itself. Plants put into ground that doesn’t drain get replaced every spring.
Heavyscape is a local Winnipeg landscaping contractor, and we build yards from the ground up. Grading and soil first, then sod, planting beds, decorative rock, and the trees and boulders that give a yard its shape. One crew handles all of it, so nothing gets handed between trades halfway through.

Our Landscaping Services
Some yards need one bed rebuilt. Some need everything from the fence in. Tell us which one you’ve got and we’ll price it either way.
-
Landscape design
We work out the whole yard before anything gets dug: where the lawn ends, where the beds run, and what goes in them. Those decisions get made standing in the yard with you.
-
Sod installation
A new lawn on ground that has been prepared to take one. The grade and the soil underneath get sorted out first, then the sod goes down.
-
Garden and planting beds
Beds shaped, edged and planted, with the soil in them worked over first. Perennials, shrubs and cedars picked to handle a zone 3 winter.
-
Decorative rock and mulch
Rock and mulch beds, edged so they hold their line instead of creeping into the lawn. The stone gets picked against the house and the planting around it.
Grading, soil work, boulders and trees. Regrading a yard that holds water, bringing in soil, setting boulders and planting trees. Most of it happens before the sod and the beds go in.

What Winnipeg Ground Does To A Yard
Any yard looks good the week it’s finished. The ones that still look good in year three had the soil and the drainage dealt with.
-
The soil is clay
Winnipeg sits on heavy clay. It holds water instead of letting it through, and it swells and shrinks with the seasons. Roots in it stay shallow unless something better goes in first.
-
The season is short
This is zone 3. Anything planted here has to come through a winter that reaches minus thirty and a spring that can still frost in late May.
-
Water has to go somewhere
A flat yard on clay holds water after a rain. Sod sitting in it thins out and beds sitting in it rot at the root, so the grade gets set before anything is planted.
If you want to know what we’d do about the grade, the soil or the drainage on your yard, ask. Jordan will walk you through it before you commit to anything.
How We’ll Handle Your Landscaping Project
Every yard is different, and so is what somebody wants out of one. Tell us what you’re after and we’ll work out what it takes.
-
Landscaping estimate
Tell us what you're picturing and we send back a realistic cost range. No site visit, no obligation, and nobody calls until you're ready.
-
Layout and planting, on site
If the range works, we walk the property with you. Where the lawn ends, where the beds run, what goes in them, and how the water gets off the yard. Then a firm price in writing.
-
Build, start to finish
Grading, soil, sod, beds and planting by one crew. Nothing is handed to a subtrade. Jordan (the owner) works on every job.
What Winnipeg Homeowners Say

Great experience working with Jordan and Heavyscape. They landscaped both my front and back yards, installed pavers, built a fence, and constructed new stairs and a landing. Throughout the project they were flexible and thorough, approachable and easy to work with. Communication was excellent, the price was fair, and great quality of the work. Highly recommended.
