Frequent questions from

Oakhill Outdoor specializes in high-value, full-service landscape construction for clients who value quality workmanship. We focus on complex projects that bring together multiple scopes and materials, including technical hardscaping, extensive planting, and custom outdoor spaces.

From the moment you contact Oakhill Outdoor, you can expect clear, consistent communication from a knowledgeable team that takes pride in its work. Quality is the driving force behind our company, and we’re committed to upholding that standard in every detail of your project.

We recommend including photos of your property with your initial inquiry, as they help us understand your project and determine the most appropriate next step. Depending on the scope of work, we’ll guide you toward one of three options:
‍
‍Virtual Project Consultation:
A free, 15–30 minute Zoom call with our Sales Manager to discuss your project, explore preliminary budgets, and determine whether we’re the right fit.
‍
‍On-Site Consultation:
Our Sales Manager visits your property to discuss your project, review product options, and take measurements in preparation for a formal quote.
‍
‍Direct Estimate:
For smaller projects and maintenance services where we can provide accurate pricing without an extensive on-site assessment or detailed measurements.

We recommend a landscape design for nearly every project, especially those involving multiple scopes, significant grade changes, or construction completed in phases over several years. A detailed design provides a clear plan for both you and our construction team, allowing for accurate pricing, seamless execution, and fewer unforeseen costs.

We primarily serve the Halifax Regional Municipality and South Shore of Nova Scotia, but our services extend province wide. For projects that are well-suited to our team and capabilities, we’re happy to extend our services anywhere in Nova Scotia.

Absolutely. This is another reason why we emphasize the importance of a landscape design. By capturing your complete vision in one plan, we can prioritize the work that fits your current budget and complete the remaining phases when it makes financial sense, without compromising the overall vision.

Material and product selection is the biggest factor influencing the cost of a landscape project. A single material choice can significantly increase or decrease the overall investment, which is why we work with clients to explore options that balance quality, appearance, and budget.

Our commitment to quality extends beyond construction to how we conduct ourselves on your property every day. You can expect a professional crew, clear communication, weekly work forecasts, and a clean, organized job site, while treating your home and surrounding neighbours with respect.
