What Calgary Homeowners Say
“Taha Landscaping was recommended to us by a neighbour, and we're glad to have used Taha. Kal (owner) was quick in responding and always made himself available to discuss our landscaping. The work he did was extremely high quality, quick and priced fairly. We'll be using Taha again next summer as we add more features to our yard.”

“We have had a fence built and it was perfect, on time and great value! And we have had a 750 square foot stone patio that has increased our outdoor living space and we love it! Looks lovely, sloped and drains and we were advised on design and product choice! We love it!”
— Melissa Hartwell
Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions

At least 4-6 feet to prevent water from pooling near the foundation.
How much does downspout extension cost?
Costs depend on number of downspouts and extension length. We provide a detailed quote after site assessment.
Should downspouts be buried?
Underground extensions are ideal for appearance and protection. We can route to daylight or drainage systems.
What if I already have foundation water issues?
Proper downspout management often prevents further problems. We may recommend additional drainage solutions.
Do downspout extensions need maintenance?
Periodic clearing of debris keeps systems functioning. Most systems need minimal maintenance.
