Decks, patios, walkways, retaining walls, and full backyard transformations — the outdoor renovations that make you actually want to be home.
Call 647-680-7771 — Free QuoteThumbs Up Landscaping handles exterior home renovations in Mississauga, ON — decks, patios, interlocking, walkways, retaining walls, and complete backyard makeovers. One local crew, from the first sketch to the final cleanup, with a firm price before we start.
You know the feeling. You walk into your backyard, look at the tired deck and the patchy grass, and think "one day we'll fix this." Then five summers go by and it still looks the same.
Most Mississauga homeowners don't put off outdoor renovations because they don't want them. They put them off because hiring the wrong crew is expensive, stressful, and hard to undo. A bad deck or a sinking patio isn't a repaint — it's a tear-out.
That's the whole reason we do this the way we do. One crew that shows up, does what we said we'd do, and gives you a firm number before anything gets torn apart. No subcontractor roulette. No "we found extra work" surprises halfway through.
Get a Free QuoteWe focus on the outside of your home — the spaces you actually live in during a Mississauga summer:
New decks, rebuilds, and repairs. From a simple ground-level platform to a multi-level deck with built-in seating and railings that pass code.
Interlocking or natural stone patios sized for how you actually use the space — dining, lounging, a fire pit, or all three.
Front walkways and steps that upgrade your curb appeal and tie the whole entrance together — the first thing people see.
Retaining walls for sloped yards and raised beds, plus regrading to move water away from your foundation instead of toward it.
The full package — deck, patio, planting, and hardscaping planned together so the finished yard actually flows as one space.
Deck staining, power washing, and stone cleaning to bring a worn exterior back to life without a full rebuild.
A lot of this overlaps with our interlocking stone work and deck repair — because a proper backyard renovation usually pulls in both.
Outdoor renovations go wrong when nobody plans the boring parts — drainage, grade, and base. Here's how we keep yours on track.
Call 647-680-7771 and tell us what you're picturing — a new deck, a patio, or a full backyard redo. We'll ask about size, access, and budget, then book a time to come look.
We measure the space, check drainage and grade, and walk you through material and layout options. You get a firm, written quote before a single thing gets torn out.
We remove the old structure, excavate, and build a proper base. This is the invisible part that decides whether the finished job lasts ten years or two.
Deck framing and boards, stone laid and compacted, walls set and drained, planting and finishing — built by the same crew that quoted it.
We haul away all debris, clean the site, and walk the finished renovation with you before we leave. You sign off — not us.
Outdoor renovation cost depends on size, materials, site access, and how much demo and grading is involved. Here are typical ranges for Mississauga residential projects:
All prices are estimates. Every renovation is different — call us with your project and we'll give you an accurate, no-obligation quote.
The people who quote your renovation are the people who build it. No handing your project off to a subcontractor who never saw the plan — that's where most renovation disasters start.
You get a written quote before demo day. What we quote is what you pay — no "we found extra work" surprise once the old deck is off and the walls are open.
Decks, patios, and walls all fail from the ground up. We build proper footings and compacted bases and grade for drainage — the parts you never see are the parts that make it last.
Mississauga soil isn't uniform — clay-heavy in the older neighborhoods, sandier near the lake. We adjust footing depth and drainage to the ground we're actually digging into, not a generic spec.
What kind of home renovations do you do?
We focus on exterior and outdoor renovations — decks, patios, interlocking, walkways, retaining walls, grading, and full backyard transformations. If it's outside your home and involves the ground or structure, it's likely in our wheelhouse.
How much does a backyard renovation cost in Mississauga?
It ranges widely. A single deck or patio might run a few thousand to $15,000, while a full transformation combining a deck, stone patio, retaining walls, and planting can run $15,000 to $60,000 or more. The only real answer comes from an on-site quote.
Do I need a permit for my renovation?
Decks above a certain height, some retaining walls, and structural work often need a City of Mississauga permit. Patios and ground-level walkways usually don't. We'll flag exactly what your project needs during the quote — and we build to code either way.
How long does an outdoor renovation take?
A standalone deck or patio typically takes several days to a couple of weeks. A full backyard transformation can run several weeks depending on scope, weather, and material lead times. We give you a realistic timeline in the quote, not a hopeful one.
What's the best time of year to renovate in Mississauga?
Spring through fall — roughly April to October — since the ground needs to be workable. We book up fast in peak summer, so spring and early fall bookings often get quicker turnaround.
Do you handle both the design and the build?
Yes. We plan the layout, materials, and drainage with you, then build it with our own crew. One team owns the whole project, so nothing gets lost in a handoff between a designer and a separate builder.
We take on renovation projects for homeowners throughout Mississauga and the surrounding GTA:
