Transforming Backyards Across Uxbridge & Durham Region

A beautifully designed backyard is more than just an outdoor space, it’s an extension of your home, a place for family connection, relaxation, and year-round enjoyment. At Main Street Pool & Spa, our landscaping division specializes in creating outdoor environments that blend aesthetics, functionality, and long-lasting craftsmanship. Whether you’re starting with a blank canvas or enhancing your existing yard, our team builds spaces that elevate everyday living.

We handle everything from concept and design to construction and finishing touches, ensuring your project is managed with precision and consistency from the moment you contact us until the final walk-through. Our goal is simple: deliver a space you love coming home to.

Custom Landscape Design: Built Around Your Lifestyle

Every outdoor project begins with thoughtful design. Our landscape designers take the time to understand how you want to use your yard, entertaining, relaxing, gardening, swimming, cooking, or simply enjoying time outdoors with your family.

What our design process includes:

• Full-yard layout planning
• Style direction (modern, natural, traditional, resort-inspired, family-friendly)
• Hardscape + softscape integration
• Privacy planning and screening
• Landscape lighting placement
• Pool and spa integration
• Drainage, grading, and long-term durability considerations
• Material and plant selection tailored to Uxbridge’s climate

This approach ensures that your space not only looks incredible on day one but remains functional and inviting for years to come.

Hardscaping That Enhances Your Space and Adds Value

Hardscaping is the structural foundation of most landscaping projects, patios, pathways, retaining walls, fire features, outdoor kitchens, and more. These elements shape your yard and define how the space flows.

Hardscaping Services Include:

• Interlock and stone patios
• Walkways and pathways
• Retaining walls and garden walls
• Outdoor kitchens and prep areas
• Fire pits and fire features
• Grilling stations
• Pool coping and stonework
• Front entry and driveway upgrades

We work with premium materials such as natural stone, pavers, armour stone, and engineered products designed to withstand Ontario’s temperature swings and freeze-thaw cycles.

Proper grading, compaction, and installation techniques ensure your hardscapes stay level, strong, and beautiful.

Softscaping & Planting for a Lush, Year-Round Landscape

Softscaping brings life, colour, and texture into your yard. Our team carefully selects plants that will thrive in Uxbridge and the surrounding region while matching your preferred aesthetic, from clean and modern to lush and natural.

Softscaping Includes:

• Tree and shrub planting
• Perennial gardens
• Seasonal colour
• Privacy hedges
• Ornamental grasses
• Ground cover and mulch installation
• Soil amendment and grading for plant health

We design with all four seasons in mind, ensuring your landscape remains vibrant from spring blooms to winter structure.

Poolside Landscaping & Backyard Integration

As experts in inground pool construction, we understand how to seamlessly blend landscaping with pool decks, spas, and outdoor living areas. Your poolscape should feel like a cohesive retreat, not an afterthought.

Poolside landscape features include:

• Stone or paver pool patios
• Water features (sheer descents, waterfalls, bubbling rocks)
• Natural stone accents
• Privacy trees and greenery
• Lighting for evening ambiance
• Seating areas and lounging zones
• Steps, landings, and transitional spaces
• Fire features for four-season enjoyment

This is one of our signature strengths, helping Durham Region homeowners achieve a true resort-style space right in their backyard.

Outdoor Structures That Complete the Space

Outdoor structures add functionality and architectural interest to any backyard design. They provide shade, create entertainment zones, and add comfort for year-round use.

Options Include:

• Pergolas and shade structures
• Pavilions and covered entertaining areas
• Cabins and pool houses
• Hot tub enclosures
• Equipment sheds
• Custom privacy screens

We design these structures to complement your home’s style and integrate seamlessly into your overall landscape plan.

Drainage, Grading & Site Preparation

A beautiful landscape must also be built on a solid foundation. Improper drainage can cause structural issues, plant loss, erosion, and long-term damage.

Main Street Pool & Spa provides professional-grade solutions for:

• French drains
• Regrading for proper water flow
• Swales and runoffs
• Pool deck drainage systems
• Foundation protection
• Retaining wall backfill systems

These behind-the-scenes elements keep your yard functional, safe, and low-maintenance.

Landscape Lighting: Beauty & Function After Sunset

Lighting adds safety, elegance, and ambiance to your outdoor space. With thoughtful placement, lighting can completely transform the way your backyard looks at night.

We install:

• Path and walkway lighting
• Uplighting for trees and architectural features
• Pool and patio lighting
• Deck and step lighting
• Ambient and decorative lighting

Our lighting designs enhance visibility, extend usable hours, and highlight the beauty of your new landscaping.
