Hardscaping in Pakenham (Mississippi Mills), ON
Professional hardscaping for Pakenham homeowners, quoted, scheduled and finished by the owners. 55 km west of downtown Ottawa from our base of operations, on our regular weekly route.
Pakenham hardscape is craft work in a heritage village. Natural-stone walkways, mortar-set front entries and Mississippi River-frontage stone terraces, material selections lean toward what reads alongside the village's stone-and-mortar streetscape, not against it. We source accordingly.
Mississippi River frontage in Pakenham falls under Mississippi Valley Conservation Authority jurisdiction. River-facing hardscape requires formal approvals we factor into the project schedule from the start.

Reviews
What our clients say.
“ALM did a ton of work around my property, inside and out. Lindsey is very pleasant to work with and also efficient. Rob and his team worked hard and did an excellent job in heavy construction and also landscaping. I'll be choosing ALM from now on. It's hard to find honesty, fairness and skill together.”
“We recently used ALM for a reno in our backyard including some structural repair as a result of some pool issues. Lindsey, Rob and team were awesome, organized, and thorough. They corrected everything to the standards that should have been done in the first place, and more. The landscaping looks great too. Highly recommend.”
“ALM is the competition. Caring, knowledgeable, quality work at the best price to fix my patio and sidewalks with the extras, even grass seed for the finishing touches. WOW.”
