Burlington is an established family city, and the backyard is where summers happen. Pisces designs complete backyard living around your pool — excavation and servicing, pool shell coordination, interlock patios and coping, decks, fencing, planting and lighting — one team from first shovel to first swim.
Pool-first backyard living for Burlington families.
The Burlington specialty: backyards built around the water — plunge pools, family pools and tropical lagoon concepts, designed together with the patio, deck and planting so the whole yard reads as one outdoor living space. See our pool construction process for how the build works, 2026 GTA cost ranges, and the permit and drainage steps.
Pool surrounds demand interlock that drains and stays comfortable underfoot — precision-laid patios with borders and drainage slopes tied into the yard’s grading.
Cedar and composite decks that meet the pool deck, plus privacy fencing that frames the yard and keeps the pool area secure.
Planting that softens the pool area and survives splashes — layered beds, ornamental grasses and trees placed for privacy and shade.
Four models from about 480 to 800 sq ft with striking ACM facades — and we handle the building permit process from drawings to City approvals.
Pools reshape a yard’s water flow. We re-grade and route drainage so the pool area and the neighbouring lots stay dry.
A pool only works when the backyard is designed around it. The patio has to meet the pool at the right height, the deck has to step down cleanly, drainage has to carry splash and stormwater away from the foundation, and planting has to survive humidity and chlorine without shedding leaves into the water. That is why we design the pool and the landscape as one project — not a pool dropped into a yard.
In Burlington’s established neighbourhoods, mature yards bring their own constraints: tight side access, overhead trees, grading that has developed over decades. Professional-grade Bobcat compact loaders and excavators are sized for exactly that — careful access, careful digging, and a finished yard that looks like it was always meant to hold a pool.
Burlington families spend their summers outside — we build for that:
We design and build the complete backyard around the pool — excavation, servicing, patio, deck, fencing, planting and lighting — and coordinate the pool shell installation with trusted partners, all under one project.
The pool. Excavation and servicing happen first, then hardscaping, then planting. Planning everything together up front is what keeps the sequence clean.
Most Burlington lots can hold a thoughtfully sized pool. A site visit tells us the real answer — access, setbacks, grading and servicing.
For garden suites we handle the building permit process end to end, from drawings to approvals. For pool and landscaping projects we walk you through what is required before work starts.
