Inground Pool Installation
We design and install custom inground steel wall and vinyl liner pools tailored for Ottawas freeze-thaw climate. Using Ontario-manufactured steel panels encased in concrete, we ensure durability against ground movement. Every pool features high-strength virgin vinyl liners with advanced welding technology for long-lasting performance.
Poolscaping
Our poolscaping integrates the pool with its surroundings, creating a cohesive outdoor environment. We design and build pool surrounds, interlock decking, landscaping, lighting, and water features as one unified project. This approach eliminates coordination gaps and ensures a polished, finished look.
Landscaping & Hardscaping
We specialize in grading, drainage, retaining walls, garden beds, and planting to optimize functionality and aesthetics. Our designs treat each property as a complete outdoor room, leveraging three decades of Ottawa-specific expertise. Every element is built to withstand local soil and climate challenges.
Interlock Ottawa
As ICPI-certified contractors, we install interlock patios, driveways, and pool surrounds to Ottawas freeze-thaw standards. Proper excavation, aggregate use, and compaction ensure surfaces last through 20+ winters. We also offer repair services for existing interlock installations.
Outdoor Structures
We design and build wood and composite decks, pergolas, sheds, and saunas tailored to Ottawas snow loads and frost depth. Each structure is integrated with the surrounding backyard for cohesive proportions. Electrical and HVAC connections are coordinated through licensed trades.

Unbelievable results!! This has been an incredible experience from day one This wasn't my first time trading but honestly I didn’t know what to expect when I first joined. After much loss. God walked me through the entire process from start to finish, Which was a HUGE plus! Mrs Ariella made the entire process so easy and hassle-free! I’m very impressed! I will definitely be referring her to you all. Contact her on these; Email: ariellacrypto75@gmail.com WhatsApp: +1(413)423-2035

We are very happy with "Ottawa Home and Garden" !!!
Andrew is a great person and true professional. Super detail oriented.
Installed a patio around our newly installed swimming pool, better than We could have hoped for. If I could give him 7 stars I would!

We can't say enough about the quality of the work that Andrew provided for numerous projects on our property. From our pool area, to the patio, to the front step/entrance - everything looks better than we could have hoped. Once the gardens have been completed, we look forward to posting some pictures. Even during Covid, when landscapers were in high demand, Andrew was loyal to his customers and did not rush any jobs. He even went as far as planning ahead during the fall for a job that we were having done in the spring due to the unavailability of materials. Very professional, an absolute pleasure

Look no further for landscaping contractors and design. We did the leg work and met with 4-5 different local companies to discuss what we wanted to see in our backyard, and we knew within minutes that Andrew was the right way to go. He has years of experience in his field and is genuine in wanting to create high quality landscaping that meet your needs. We look forward to working with them in the years to come to progress to phase 2 of Jamie's design.

We had Andrew and his team come in Fall 2017 to prep our backyard for a large patio. Spring 2018 the team came in and did an amazing job completing the patio. After this winter, not one stone moved. Andrew did an excellent job preparing plans, setting the foundation for the patio, and helping to make our backyard beautiful!
