Landscaping Services in Oakridge
Dawn Till Dusk Landscaping provides comprehensive lawn care and landscaping services to homeowners in Oakridge and surrounding Scarborough neighborhoods. Whether you need weekly maintenance, garden work, or a full yard overhaul, we've got you covered.
Oakridge sits between Lawrence East and Eglinton in central Scarborough, near Scarborough Town Centre. Most of the housing stock is 1950s–70s detached homes on workable-sized lots, and the soil here runs sandy-clay with decent drainage — easier to grow grass on than the heavier clay further east, but still benefits from spring aeration on lawns that have compacted under foot traffic. We've been working Oakridge properties for years, mostly weekly lawn maintenance, spring/fall cleanups, and the occasional driveway interlocking job. A few of our longest-running weekly clients live on this side of Scarborough.
About Oakridge
Oakridge is an established community featuring a mix of housing types, from traditional detached homes to newer semi-detached builds. The neighborhood is characterized by its hilly terrain in some sections, which often requires creative landscaping solutions like retaining walls and tiered gardens. Homeowners here value functional outdoor spaces that can accommodate both gardening and family activities.

Seasonal Tips for Oakridge
Inspect retaining walls for any shifting or drainage issues after the spring thaw.
Use drought-tolerant plants in sun-baked areas to reduce water consumption.
Divide and transplant overgrown perennials to refresh your garden beds for next year.
Be mindful of where you pile snow to avoid blocking natural drainage paths on sloped lots.

Services in Oakridge
All of our landscaping services are available to Oakridge homeowners.
Lawn Care & Maintenance
Weekly grass cutting, fertilization, and weed control to keep your lawn healthy all season. We adjust mowing height through the year and send the same crew each visit so nothing about your lawn gets missed.
Garden & Plant Services
Flower bed planting, tree work, and shrub trimming to make your yard look great. We choose plants suited to your soil and light so beds hold up through Scarborough winters instead of needing to be replanted every year.
Hardscaping & Design
Interlocking driveways, patios, walkways, and custom landscape design. Getting the base depth and grading right up front is what keeps pavers from shifting or sinking down the line.
Cleanup & General
Seasonal cleanup and garbage removal so your property stays clean year-round. Everything gets hauled off site the same visit — no debris piles left for you to deal with later.
Tree Removal & Stump Grinding
Professional tree removal, stump grinding, and hazardous tree management. Not every problem tree needs to come down — we assess it first and give you an honest read on removal versus corrective pruning.
Premium Sod Installation
Fresh Kentucky Bluegrass sod installation, from old lawn removal to first watering. We grade and amend the soil before laying a single roll so the new lawn drains properly and roots in evenly.
