Walkways/Sidewalks
Landscaping adds a very distinct charm to your home; when you have outdoor living elements, they add to the spaciousness of the space and encourage you to use these areas more. However, when you have well-planned installations and areas on your property, you also want to be able to access then easily.
For example, if you have a pergola installed at the far end of the garden or even a tree house for the kids, on the other side of the lawn, you don’t want to walk through the grassy areas or over flowerbed planters to get to these areas. A simple solution is to install walkways on your property.
We at DMS Landscaping and Hardscapes have been operating in this space for over 30 years now; over the years, we have handled a significant number of pathway and walkway installation projects for customers across Saskatoon. When we handle any project, we make it a point to focus on functionality and durability and of course the aesthetics of the features.
While some paver walkway installations we handle could be part of a larger garden and yard installation project, many of our customers also come to us to get these features installed at a later date- these projects are largely upgrades or part of landscape remodeling jobs.
BUILDING A CONCRETE PAVER WALK
No matter what the project, we provide high grade solutions that are right in line with your requirements. We take the size and the layout of the open spaces into account, the appearance of the other features and what your specific requirements are. We recommend the use of paver stones for the exterior walkways as this material is very versatile.
It’s available in different designs, textures and colors and you can choose from brick, natural stone or concrete pavers. Some of our customers prefer that we install larger natural stone pathways; we may also create some design concepts with grass growing between the stones, which create a very unique and alluring look. When it comes to using paving stones for these installations, the possibilities are literally endless.
METHODICAL WALKWAY DESIGN CONCEPTS
You only have to tell us what your specific requirements are. When we design these paths or walks, our designers keep your specific requirements in view and the solutions they provide will also factor in the paver walkways cost as per what fits into your budget.
When you get a well-planned network of walkways and pathways, it creates a very manicured on the property. You will also find that your lawns and plantings grow better as no one is walking over them, to get to the different areas of the garden or yard.
We have been operating in this field for over 30 years now and have handled a significant number of landscaping jobs that have included design and installation of walks etc. For more information and an obligation-free quote, call DMS Landscaping and Hardscapes at (306) 227-7896.

SIDEWALKS
Sidewalks are much more than mere concrete strips that line roads and streets. They are elements which are almost an integral part of many landscaping projects. In fact, regardless of what the size of your yard or garden, the one way to get to the different spaces in the landscape, without trampling on lawn areas or flower beds, is to get walkways or sidewalks installed.
When we at DMS Landscaping and Hardscapes are handling any landscaping job, we incorporate sidewalk design in the plans. These installations can be as simplistic or elaborate as you want them to be. We put in a lot of planning in these projects; and the placement of paver pathways is never random. We take into account a number of factors in the planning of this seemingly basic installation, such as:
- The size of the landscaping
- Position of various spaces in the landscaping
- Placement of plantings and trees
- Other hardscape elements
- Materials used in the landscaping
- The type of sidewalk paving material to be used
- Width of the sidewalk
- Type of edging or border to be used
- Other
In most instances, the sidewalks are part of a broader network that includes your driveway, garden steps and other walks, your patio and deck as well as the pool area. This means the design of the paver sidewalk and the material used in its installation has to complement the look of these elements too.
If we are handling the entire landscaping project, we ensure that there is cohesiveness in the design. Many of our customers in Saskatoon also ask for these installations in existing landscape spaces, when they are upgrading the backyard design or want to alter the look of the landscaping. At times such as these, we work extra hard to ensure that the new installation blends in perfectly with the appearance of the existing elements.
SIDEWALK PAVER MATERIALS
Depending on the materials already used in the landscaping, we may use:
- Brick, natural stone or concrete pavers
- Large natural paving stones
- Crushed stone
- Granite squares
- Concrete blocks
We understand that when you want sidewalks incorporated into the landscaping, you want the flow and theme of the garden spaces to be retained; and like we stated earlier, we work very hard to achieve that. We understand what your ideas are and then give them form.
WHY SIDEWALKS ARE AN EXCELLENT INSTALLATION
The sidewalks we install from the street right to your door, and around your backyard or front lawn, helps keep your lawns and plants from being trampled; and it’s a great way to demarcate spaces without actually having to construct walls (which makes the outdoor areas look very restricted).
For more than three decades, DMS Landscaping and Hardscapes has been providing high grade solutions that have helped create stunning design concepts on the properties of residential property owners across the region.
While we maintain very high quality standards, you will notice that our sidewalk costs are very reasonable. For more information about our brick paver sidewalks, call us at (306) 227-7896. If you prefer to send us your queries via email, please use this online form on our site.
