Modern Backyard Hosting Area – Meadowvale Ave., Stoney Creek
For this Stoney Creek backyard transformation, our client wanted a clean, modern space for hosting and entertaining. We delivered a modern, low-maintenance design that blends concrete, wood, and metal, creating a private yet open gathering area.
Project Highlights
Durable & Functional Concrete Patio - We installed a brushed finish concrete patio, offering a smooth, clean aesthetic with excellent durability. To address the client’s previous drainage issues, the concrete was sloped away from the home to prevent water pooling and improve runoff.
Slip Fence for Strength & Privacy - A custom Slip Fence was installed using 3x3 square metal posts and horizontal deck boards. This design provides:
- A modern, sleek look
- Extra strength and durability
- Resistance to sagging over time
Compact & Functional Entryway - To ensure easy access between the home and backyard, we built a small landing with double-sided stairs. This space-saving design maintains an open feel while maximizing functionality.
Custom Barn-Style Double Doors - For convenience and accessibility, we installed double barn doors at the entrance. This allows for easy movement of large objects in and out of the backyard, ensuring long-term practicality.
The Final Result
This project successfully combines concrete, wood, and metal to achieve a modern yet modest aesthetic. The new backyard offers full privacy, a durable patio, and a spacious seating area, making it the perfect space for entertaining and relaxation.

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.
