10 Examples of Landscaping Projects

By Léa Plourde-Archer

Updated on January 25, 2024

By working on your home's landscaping, you are essentially embellishing your surrounding environment. Although we tend to spend most of our time inside the home, areas located outdoors are just as important, especially when we like to enjoy good weather. 

Spending time on Pinterest to discover dream gardens can help us find inspiration. This practical tool works well alongside magazines and books about landscaping. Since RenoQuotes.com has many exterior renovation and landscaping specialists in our network, we wanted to present interesting examples of projects carried out by some of these companies: 

Here are 10 examples of landscaping and exterior renovation projects

1.  A lush yard with a natural stone staircase

This simple layout focuses on natural elements such as stone, all while being surrounded by generous greenery.

2. Zen garden in an urban backyard

Even though this backyard is quite small, no amount of space is lost with this layout which is inspired by Japanese zen gardens! 

Contractor: Construction Bruno Plourde

3. Stone backyard with a small garden, surrounded by a wooden fence

Another example of an urban backyard, with a small garden and a paved surface that is ready to welcome a table and chairs. With the abundance of plants and the warmly-tinted wood, we almost feel like we've travelled to another country!

4. Paved stones steps for a slightly inclined entryway

Here is a driveway that is impeccable and elegant! What a great solution for a home that is set atop a small slope.
