Client Reviews
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.”
— Zach Newman

“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!”

Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does lot and yard grading cost?
Costs depend on property size and extent of grading needed. We provide a detailed quote after site assessment.
Why is proper grading important?
Good grading prevents water pooling, protects foundations, enables proper drainage, and creates level spaces for landscaping.
What is the proper slope for drainage?
Typically 1 to 2% slope away from structures. We design slopes that handle Calgary's moisture and snow melt.
Can you fix drainage problems?
Yes. Often proper grading alone solves drainage issues. We may recommend French drains or other solutions if needed.
How long does grading take?
Duration depends on property size and complexity. We provide an estimated timeline with your quote.
What happens after grading?
Graded areas can be seeded, sodded, or prepared for landscaping. We discuss next steps during consultation.
