We understand Stoney Creek’s unique needs
Nestled between Lake Ontario to the north and the Niagara Escarpment to the south, Stoney Creek is home to approximately 62,000 residents on the eastern edge of Hamilton.
So when it comes to landscaping, gardening and day-to-day life, Stoney Creek is quite different from the rest of Hamilton proper.
We don’t just work and serve Stoney Creek, but we live here too.
It’s that understanding and appreciation which guides everything we do.
Soil conditions unlike anywhere else
Stoney Creek has two natural boundaries: Lake Ontario and the Niagara Escarpment.
Because of this, much like the surrounding communities near Hamilton, the soil in Stoney Creek was derived from the glaciers that dominated the area thousands of years ago, making it ideal for:
- Growing grass and lawns
- Planting fruit and vegetable gardens
- Planting and harvesting herbs
Our topsoil products are designed to enhance the nutrient rich soil homeowners and contractors experience in Stoney Creek and Hamilton, and our patio stones border your garden perfectly.
Stone is a big part of Stoney Creek
It’s in the name of the city: Stoney Creek.
The main tourist attraction in the city, Battlefield Monument, is made of locally quarried stone.
It commemorates an important battle in the War of 1812 where American forces were defeated and retreated in a critical turning point in the defence of Canadian independence.
Plus, Stoney Creek is nearby to respected interlocking stone manufacturers too:
- Unilock
- Permacon
- Techo-Bloc
So the latest in interlocking paver stones is always just around the corner.
Gardening and landscaping in Stoney Creek and Hamilton
Stoney Creek has a humid climate that’s cooler for those living by Lake Ontario than it is for residents living near the mountain.
It’s also cooler for people who live on Stoney Creek mountain itself.
The temperature can remain quite cold as far as late April.
This gives Stoney Creek a slightly shorter gardening and landscaping season versus other cities.
Where to live in Stoney Creek
