Driveway Removal & Yard Transformation – Armstrong Ave., Hamilton
For this Hamilton landscaping project, our clients wanted to remove their old concrete driveway and maximize their grassed area for a more open and natural look. We handled the entire transformation, from demolition and grading to fencing and sod installation, creating a clean, private, and functional outdoor space.
Project Highlights
Concrete Driveway Removal & Regrading - We started by removing the old concrete driveway and regrading the entire yard to create a smooth, even surface. This helped improve both drainage and lawn health, ensuring a long-lasting green space.
Full Privacy with Board-on-Board Fencing - The existing fence was removed and replaced with a 6’ tall board-on-board privacy fence using sturdy 4x4 posts. This fencing style provides full coverage, making the backyard a private retreat while adding a clean, modern aesthetic.
Concrete Pad for Storage Shed - To ensure a solid and level foundation for a future shed, we installed a 10x12 concrete pad, offering a durable, low-maintenance base that will stand the test of time.
Lush, Green Sod Installation - The final step was laying fresh new sod, transforming the space into a vibrant, green lawn. With proper grading and high-quality sod, the yard is now healthier, more spacious, and perfect for outdoor enjoyment.
The Final Result
This project turned a concrete-heavy space into a lush, private backyard, providing the homeowners with a functional and visually appealing outdoor area. The combination of expanded lawn space, a sturdy privacy fence, and a practical shed foundation ensures both beauty and usability.

Here's What They Say
We called Sean because our backyard was in need of a solution for drainage. He knew exactly what we needed and worked inside our budget. They worked hard and were very professional. We are happy with his work and will hire again. Thanks Sean!
I first reached out to Square Leaf Landscaping because of their wonderful reviews. My experience with Sean and his team was a pleasure from start to finish. My new replaced front lawn and the artificial turf in the backyard look great. I couldn’t be happier with the work they completed and the clean up afterwards. I would highly recommend this company in the future for any outside project needs you may have. Thanks again Sean. October 2025
I am so pleased with work done at my home by Sean and crew. They were on time and left my home clean and tidy. Sean was a delight from his quote right to the end! I could not give them a higher review. They are the best!!!
Sean was quick to quote the trimming of a large hedge for us. He advised it would be a month or two out, but sqeezed us in earlier. They cleaned up all the debris and completed the job in 1 day. Based on this experience, I would have no problem recommending Square Leaf for this type of work.
They did an amazing job making our front and backyard so beautiful. They were also very professional and worked in an organized manner. I would recommend them!
Sean was the right choice. He came in at budget, and finished two days earlier than quoted. He and the team were at our house every day until the project was done. The project consisted of a new fence, and two layered deck to an above ground pool. He and the team were a welcomed sight every day. We have two dogs, and once the fence was done, Sean supported them with providing extra materials so they could walk across the deck boards prior to the deck being built. I would recommend them again and again, and want the best for them.
We had sean and his team out last summer to do a small patio and some artificial turf in our backyard, and we are in love with our new outdoor space. Sean was easy to work with, made sure to take all our requests into consideration when planning out the job, and his team was friendly and tidy. Great experience with square leaf landscaping! If you’re thinking about it , go for it! You won’t regret it!
Our neighbours had Square Leaf Landscaping Company come today to completely redo their frontage. The workers arrived promptly at 7:30 a.m. this morning and began the proceedings. Heat and air quality warnings were issued for the city by Environment Canada, mainly due to summer climate change and the wildfires burning in Northern Ontario. The men from this company set to work immediately and have worked there all day in these extremely difficult conditions. As I type, they are still there, finishing today’s business. They never once took a sustained break that we noticed. They worked diligently and very hard all of this stifling summer day. They used machines, but the noise was subdued and not bothersome; they made, of course, some dust and debris, but cleaned up as they worked. They demonstrated extreme professionalism and obvious dedication to the job at hand. We asked if they would remove a garden rock from our place that we wished to dispose of, as they had other rocks to deal with in the course of their landscaping. Sean, the owner, kindly agreed to do this. We consider this company the epitome of professionalism, dedication, courtesy and kindness. Wewould most definitely recommend them based on what we saw transpire today.
