From perennial border builds in Manotick to full front-yard transformations in Barrhaven, CleanYards installs gardens that fit south Ottawa's diverse communities and growing conditions.
South Ottawa homeowners in Nepean, Barrhaven, and surrounding communities trust CleanYards to turn garden plans into finished landscapes, whether working from a designer's blueprint or a homeowner's own vision.
Ottawa's range of property types, from heritage lots with mature trees to brand-new suburban builds, means every garden installation starts with different soil, light, and drainage conditions. We assess what's actually on-site before breaking ground: Rideau Valley alluvial soils behave differently than sandy suburban subsoil, and a shaded Nepean backyard needs a fundamentally different plant palette than a south-facing Barrhaven front bed. We handle the physical work of soil prep, precise planting, mulching, and edging so your new garden establishes strong from day one.

Ottawa's Rideau Valley creates pockets of rich alluvial soil alongside sandy uplands. A proper garden installation starts with understanding what's in the ground at your specific property, not making assumptions.
We install gardens across Nepean, Barrhaven, Riverside South, and beyond on project-based scheduling. Our familiarity with south Ottawa's communities means efficient site assessment and accurate quoting.
Ottawa's Zone 5a planting window runs roughly mid-May through mid-October. We schedule installations to give new plants maximum establishment time before freeze-up, and adjust plant selections for late-season projects.

This has been my first year with CleanYards and Sebastian. I have been more than pleased with the work he has done for me. The yard maintenance and the fall clean up have been done very well, much better than I could do myself. I look forward to next Spring when I can have Sebastian do more jobs for me.

Recently had new sod installed. Sebastien and Andre were friendly and helpful in helping me understand the work they would be doing, did a fantastic job, provided a helpful guide and an open channel of communication on advice for future care, and all at a good price. Would recommend Sebastien's business to anyone!
