Why Choose Bennett Lawn & Landscape for Garden Beds in Ottawa

Well-built garden beds do more than hold plants. They define your yard’s shape and reduce the upkeep that comes with bare or overgrown ground. Bennett Lawn & Landscape designs and installs garden beds across Ottawa.

Custom Design & Layout

We design garden beds around your yard’s existing shape, sun exposure, and drainage – the same site-first approach behind our Ottawa landscape design and planning services.

Raised Garden Bed Specialists

From a single raised garden bed for vegetables to a full run of them along a fence line, we build for Ottawa’s soil and climate from the ground up.

Full Installation & Maintenance

We don’t just install and call the job done. Ongoing garden bed maintenance is available for clients who want beds that stay looking sharp all season.

Garden Bed Maintenance

We handle seasonal cleanup, weeding, mulch installation and delivery that Ottawa properties need, and pruning to keep your established beds looking cared for, not overgrown.

Edging & Border Installation

We install clean, defined borders using the same hardscape company Ottawa homeowners trust for other stonework, keeping mulch and soil in place and grass out of your beds.

How We Build Your Garden Beds – Our Process

It starts with a site visit. We look at sun exposure, soil condition, and drainage before putting together a layout recommendation. Once that’s set, we clear the space, amend the soil as needed, install edging, and plant according to the design we’ve worked out with you. A finishing layer of mulch protects the new plantings and gives the bed a clean, finished look from day one.

For raised garden bed builds specifically, we bring in fresh soil rather than relying on the native ground underneath, since Ottawa’s clay-heavy soil rarely drains well enough on its own for vegetable growing.

Garden bed maintenance doesn’t need to be a big ongoing commitment once a bed is built properly. Good edging keeps grass out, a solid mulch layer keeps weeds down, and the right plant choices for Ottawa’s climate mean less dead material to replace every spring. Most of the upkeep we see requested is a light seasonal tidy, not a rescue job.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We recently hired Bennett Landsaping to update areas of our backyard.  We were extremely impressed with Issac and his crew! The job was completed on time and on budget. The level of communication was excellent, and Isaac and his  crew had some great suggestions that we were excited to incorporate into our original plan. Our property was left clean and free of any left over material and debis. Issac and his crew installed a beautiful firepit with a semi circular bench,  a water feature and walkway, which turned out beautiful.  We would not hesitate to recommend Bennett Landscaping, and would definitely use them in the future. Thanks Issac, Gibby and Remi for a job well done!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A big thank you to Isaac and his team for finishing our patio to a very high standard, on time and on budget. This is a very skilled, organized and efficient operation.  Isaac and his team are straightforward, flexible and pleasant to work with.  He gave us the 5 star treatment so I give Bennet Landscaping a 5 star rating in return. Our neighbours had already reached out to him for work on their properties even before he had finished with ours. We look forward to the next project. Totally recommend.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We are so happy with our new front steps!  Isaac was terrific throughout the project.  His creativity, solid knowledge of construction, attention to detail and professionalism transformed our front steps into a beautiful feature, beyond what we could have imagined.  His recommendation to add lighting brought the project to yet another level. His approach to his work extends to his crew who were on time, professional and more than happy to discuss the stages of the project and answer our questions along the way.  They worked hard, were pleasant to deal with and tidied up the site each day. It was a pleasure to work with Isaac and his crew, the results exceeded our expectations and we would highly recommend them.

Throughout the project Isaac was professional and provided knowledgeable guidance. He helped us choose the right stone, created a virtual design so we could see the plan ahead of time, and checked in regularly to make sure everything matched our vision.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the benefits of installing garden beds for landscapes?

Well defined garden beds help with weed control, and improve drainage around plantings. They give the yard a sense of structure. They also make maintenance easier, because mulched, edged beds require a lot less maintenance than scattered plantings in open lawn.

What types of materials are best for building garden beds in Ontario?

Pressure-treated or cedar lumber, natural stone, and steel edging are all solid options locally. Which one makes sense for you really comes down to budget and the aesthetic you have in mind. We’ll go over that together during your consultation.

How much does garden bed installation cost in Ottawa?

There are a few different things that can affect the price. These include the size of the bed, the type of material you want, and whether you want it raised or installed in the ground. Our price guide and cost estimates discuss the usual things that are included, and we will give you an accurate quote after we have seen your property.

What plants work best in garden beds for Ottawa's climate?

We lean toward plants rated for zone 4 or 5 hardiness, since anything rated only for warmer zones tends to struggle or die back hard over an Ottawa winter. We’ll recommend specific varieties based on sun exposure and soil.

Do you provide garden bed design and installation services in Ottawa?

We provide, yes, from initial design through installation, planting, and then ongoing garden bed maintenance if you want us to keep them looking sharp season to season.

How do you prepare soil for new garden beds?

We remove any existing sod or debris first, and then we work organic matter into compacted or clay-heavy soil and grade the area so that there is proper drainage before we plant anything. With raised beds we usually bring in all new soil.
