Mountview Services can provide grounds maintenance and landscaping services to properties of any size. This also includes winter services such as snow-plowing and ice removal. We currently handle multiple properties in excess of 20 acres of pavement and 10 acres of grounds.
Depending on the condition of your existing retaining wall, it may be possible to rebuild and repair it. Mountview Services will assess the retaining walls’ condition and diagnose the issues that have been causing it to fail. We will then recommend a repair method or possibly complete replacement.
Permitting for landscape construction is dependent on the scope of the project. Small landscaping projects like tree planting, garden expansion, or laying sod do not require permits. Large projects that involve structural elements such as retaining walls, patios, pergolas, and driveways may need permits.

Artificial grass is specifically designed and engineered to withstand high use in any weather conditions, making it a great choice in Ontario’s varied climate. Artificial turf outperforms natural grass in high-traffic environments, and it is a great choice for sports facilities and playgrounds, maintaining its appearance and long-lasting properties throughout years of repeated use.
The duration of your landscape project depends on the scope of work and the amount of preparation required. With a large landscape construction team and reliable equipment at our disposal, Mountview Services prides itself in completing landscape projects within our specified timelines with minimal disruptions to your daily life.

There are many environmentally friendly benefits to installing artificial grass at your commercial property when compared to the ongoing maintenance of natural grass. Synthetic turf offers the benefit of maintaining a perfectly manicured appearance, regardless of the season or environmental conditions. This allows for a reduction in water usage and eliminates dependence on synthetic fertilizers and pesticides that may be harmful to plants and animals.
Although installation of artificial turf for business and commercial properties requires an initial, up-front investment, the overall cost savings can be found in the long-term reduction of recurring maintenance inherent to maintaining a natural lawn. Scheduled mowing, fertilizing, watering, and clean-up services can be reduced or completely eliminated with artificial grass, allowing business owners to focus more on their operations, employees, customers, or tenants.

Ontario often throws curve balls when it comes to spring and fall weather, making planning for landscape construction projects a little more difficult. As a general rule, landscape construction projects usually begin when the ground has sufficiently thawed in the spring and before the frost begins to set in the fall. Some planning, preparation, and design work, however, can happen in the off-season, allowing us to get started once the weather permits.
Commercial snow removal can have many similarities to residential snow removal but on a larger scale. Commercial snow removal often requires larger snow removal equipment, more frequent snow removal visits, and consistent deicing and monitoring.
Mountview Services always considers the Southwestern Ontario climate when it comes to landscape design and material recommendation. Durable materials like natural stone, concrete pavers, and pressure-treated wood are recommended to withstand the freeze-thaw cycles experienced in Ontario. Native plants and drought-resistant landscaping also help reduce maintenance and promote longevity.
Most standard all-season contracts include spring and fall garden maintenance, summer lawn and garden care, and winter snow and ice management. However, all contracts are fully customizable to suit your specific needs, preferences, or property requirements.
