BUILD ON SOLID GROUND

Many larger properties have land that sits unused: a wooded corner, a sloped section or a low area that holds water after every storm. Without the right groundwork, these spaces stay out of reach, and any future structure, laneway or addition starts at a disadvantage.

RESCON LTD turns underused land into functional, buildable space. We clear the area, remove stumps, bring the site up to grade with suitable fill and install proper drainage, so it’s ready for a new laneway, parking area, shop or future build. Every project is handled with the same precision and accountability we bring to our luxury landscape work.

GRADING & REGRADING

Correct grading directs water away from your home, levels uneven terrain and turns challenging slopes into usable, well-defined areas.

“An Outstanding Experience”

We had an outstanding experience working with Jake (owner of RESCON). From start to finish, he was incredibly responsive, detail-oriented, and professional. His knowledge and expertise showed in every part of the process, and our new front steps turned out even better than we imagined. He took the time to answer our questions, provide thoughtful recommendations, and ensure everything was done to the highest standard. We couldn’t be happier with the results and would highly recommend him!

“You Won’t Be Disappointed!”

This spring, I met with Jake to discuss a pool install that went horribly wrong. After our first meeting, I knew that he was the man for the job. On the date we agreed to, Jake and his team came on time, dressed in company T-shirts (that was a nice touch, Jake). After every full day of work, the team cleaned up the site, which was great to see since the last contractor left garbage everywhere. The job was completed on the time set by Jake and done to our satisfaction. The RESCON Team are young and take great pride in their work. I would recommend Jake and his team to anyone. You won’t be disappointed.

“Transformed Our Blank Canvas Into Something Extraordinary.”

After building our custom home on a 15-acre property, we were ready to take on the challenge of landscaping—and it was a big one. I met Jake, the owner of Rescon, at the Barrie Home Show, and from that moment on, I knew we were in good hands. Jake is incredibly knowledgeable and truly a perfectionist. He quarterbacked the entire project, seamlessly coordinating every aspect from finishing our existing pool to installing irrigation, building a greenhouse, creating beautiful patios, and finally laying down the sod. The attention to detail and level of professionalism throughout was outstanding. Jake and his team transformed our blank canvas into something extraordinary. Highly recommend RESCON to anyone looking for top-tier landscaping with expert leadership and flawless execution.
