Why Most Outdoor Projects Fall Apart Before They're Finished
Here’s the typical backyard renovation: you hire a pool installer, a separate landscaping company in Ottawa, maybe a deck builder, and a lighting contractor. Each one works on their own schedule, with their own scope, and without coordination with the others. The pool gets installed, but the grading doesn’t drain properly. The patio pavers don’t align with the pool coping. The electrical for your outdoor kitchen wasn’t planned until after the hardscape was laid. By the time you’re done, you’ve managed four contractors, resolved conflicting timelines, and paid for rework that shouldn’t have been necessary. As a design-build firm, Develeko handles your entire outdoor project, including pool, landscaping, hardscape, lighting, and structures under one team, one timeline, and one accountable point of contact.
Our Landscaping & Pool Services
From softscape planting beds to full inground pool installations, our outdoor projects are designed around your property, your budget, and Ottawa’s demanding four-season climate.
Custom-designed interlock patios in Ottawa are built on properly excavated aggregate bases engineered for our freeze-thaw cycles. Full range of colours, patterns, and formats with proper drainage slope and edge restraint.
Natural stone, armour stone, and interlocking block systems with proper footing depth, drainage backfill, and geogrid reinforcement where required. Engineered for Ottawa's clay soil and frost depth.
Custom pool installation in Ottawa for fibreglass, vinyl liner, and concrete pools. We manage everything from excavation through to coping and surrounding hardships as one integrated project, not patched together after the fact.
Sod, garden beds, shrub and tree planting, mulching, and grading. We prepare Ottawa's clay soil properly before anything goes in the ground, so your lawn establishes itself in the first season.
Complete outdoor living spaces from built-in BBQ islands and countertops (using stone from our own Ottawa Granite Shop) to fire pits, pergolas, and covered dining areas, all integrated into your landscape plan.
Landscape and architectural lighting for patios, walkways, pool surrounds, and garden features. Extends usability into the evening and adds security and curb appeal year-round.
Pool-code-compliant fencing in wood, wrought iron, steel, and PVC, plus privacy screens and decorative panels. Coordinated with your pool and landscape plan so fencing is part of the design, not an afterthought.
Grading, catch basins, French drains, and downspout routing are addressed before hardscape or landscaping begins because drainage problems buried under a new patio are expensive to fix later.
Pool Options
We install three primary pool types, each suited to different budgets, site conditions, and long-term maintenance preferences. We’ll help you understand the trade-offs so you can choose the right one for your property.
Fiberglass Pools
Pre-manufactured shells that install quickly with minimal ongoing maintenance. Resists algae, won't need liner replacement, and handles Ottawa's freeze-thaw cycles without cracking. Available in a wide range of shapes with built-in benches, tanning ledges, and spa options.
Vinyl Liner Pools
The most affordable custom inground option. Fully customizable in shape, size, and depth, with liner patterns refreshed every 8–12 years. Steel wall construction with concrete-encased bracing provides structural stability through Ottawa's seasonal ground movement.
Concrete Pools
The ultimate in customization, any shape, depth, or configuration, finished in plaster, pebble, or tile. Longest lifespan, but the highest upfront investment and the longest build timeline. Best for homeowners with specific design visions that pre-formed options can't accommodate.
