Extend your home into the outdoors with custom-built features designed for how you actually live. From structural retaining walls to evening fire pits and handcrafted pergolas, we create spaces that work year-round across the Greater Toronto Area.
Every feature we build starts with your yard's specific conditions — soil type, grading, drainage, and how you plan to use the space. That's how outdoor projects last decades instead of a few seasons.
An armour stone retaining wall is the most effective way to manage a sloped yard, prevent soil erosion, and reclaim usable outdoor space. We build walls using heavy armour stone, segmental locking block, and timber — selecting the right material based on your wall height, soil load, and drainage conditions. If water pools near your foundation or your existing retaining structure is leaning, that's a structural problem we can correct properly.
A well-designed outdoor kitchen turns your backyard into a genuine entertaining space — not just a patio with a portable grill. We build permanent stations with countertops, storage, and gas or charcoal hookups, alongside wood-burning or gas fire pits surrounded by stone seating walls. These features extend your outdoor living season well into the fall evenings.
Proper yard grading is the foundation of a healthy landscape. Standing water, soggy patches, and erosion along your property line are all signs that your yard's grade needs professional attention. We regrade to direct water away from your home's foundation and build raised, structured garden beds with proper drainage layers so your plantings actually thrive long-term.
As a dedicated pergola contractor, we design and build structures tailored to your yard's dimensions and how you plan to use the space — whether that's shade over a dining area, a covered lounge beside the pool, or a screened pavilion for bug-free evenings. Every structure is built to your specifications, not pulled from a catalog. If you're looking for custom pergola builders who handle the entire project from footings to finish, that's exactly what we do.
Since 2016, Runsview has completed 50+ projects annually across the Greater Toronto Area — with warranty claims that rarely exceed $5,000 per year. That is the kind of craftsmanship our clients remember and recommend.
We do not rely on subcontractors. Our dedicated project managers, designers, and skilled tradespeople handle your project from concept through to delivery. You receive a consistent, high-quality standard of work without the miscommunications that come from handing jobs off to third parties. Many of our outdoor feature projects also include interlocking steps and walkways — having one team handle the full scope means everything connects seamlessly.
If your yard slopes toward your home's foundation, you notice soil washing away after heavy rain, or an existing wall is leaning or cracking, it's time to call a retaining wall contractor. A properly engineered wall redirects water, holds back soil pressure, and creates flat, usable space where there was none before.
Look for a contractor who evaluates drainage patterns on-site before quoting — not one who gives a price over the phone. Proper grading requires understanding your property's soil composition, existing slope, and where water currently flows. We include a detailed site assessment with every quote at no cost.
Absolutely. Every pergola we build is designed around your existing hardscape, sight lines, and how you plan to use the space. We handle everything from pouring the footings to the final stain, and we can integrate lighting, privacy screens, or a louvered roof depending on what you need.
