    We had a fantastic experience working with Ben and the team at Embark!<br><br>From the initial design through the completion of our project, Ben was professional, responsive, and great to work with. The crew was friendly, hardworking, and respectful of our property. Even when we encountered a few unexpected twists along the way (like a shed that decided to take flight in a windstorm!), the team handled things with a great attitude.<br><br>We're thrilled with the transformation and really appreciate Embark's communication, flexibility and willingness to work with us to bring our vision to life.<br><br>We'd recommend Embark to anyone looking for professional landscaping services. Thanks, Ben and team, for a job well done!

    Ben and the team at Embark did a great job on our landscaping project. Zach and Darell were super friendly and professional, and they clearly take pride in their work. Not only does our yard look amazing, but the new grading will mean I can breathe easy next time there’s a massive rainstorm.<br><br>I’ll be sure to recommend Embark to anyone I know who needs landscaping!

    Fantastic experience! I have used Embark twice - first to design and install a gorgeous new yard for my townhouse, and this week to install a dog run and change a small spot of grading where the builder had not properly compacted the soil around my foundation. Their recommendations for trees and materials were spot on and I’ve really enjoyed my pretty yard! Ben and the crew went way above and beyond this week! I’m so happy! Not only did they complete the work I had approved to fix the grading, but they trimmed and disposed of my overgrown plants (saving me lots of work this fall!), removed some sucker saplings that had taken up residence and completely cleaned out a 30 foot long flowerbed. They also lifted & reinstalled my gate. They did a great job and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend their services. Friendly service and reasonable rates. 10/10! (Before and after photos)

    The team came in, prepared the job site, and set it up according to plan. They checked in to ensure expectations were being met and cleaned up afterwards. Great experience working with this company. Would hire them again

    Making changes to one's yard and gardens is an interesting process. Ben and Taemi were great in working with us in talking through the possible changes to the existing yard as well as being incredible patient making changes to the intial designs.<br>Once an inital design was agreed to, the work started relatively quickly (rain was an issue) which was a pleasant surprise. Adding to that the installation team (those doing the real work) lead by Rushaine were fantastic when on the go changes were needed to tweak the work being done. Great ideas presented by the install team and Ben were made as we worked through the installation process. The team members were very polite, focused and hard working. The end results of the process is fantastic giving us a totally different and pleasant yard. Thanks Ben and team.

    This is our second time hiring Embark. They completed a big to-do list of landscaping, regrading, yard drainage, and repairs. They did a remarkable job on all our requests. We're very happy with the quality of repairs, attention to detail and craftsmanship.

Company Background

About Embark Landscape & Design Inc.

Embark Landscape & Design Inc. has been in business since 2016, and its website marks a ten-year anniversary. The company works from a shop at 11230 228 Street NW on Edmonton's far west side, with a staff list that names two managing partners, Jordan McDonald and Ben Hobden, a shop manager, a construction manager, a maintenance manager, a designer and crew leads.

Design and build is the headline service. The site describes a five-step process that starts with a property review and site photos, moves to a drawn design with up to two revision cycles, then an itemized scope covering grading, hardscape, carpentry and planting, a site meeting before construction, and phased building. Construction scope includes final grading and drainage, paving stone and retaining walls, decks, pergolas and fencing, sod, trees and shrubs, and demolition and earthworks. The company states a one-year warranty on construction and installation.

The second half of the business is property maintenance. Annual programs cover spring cleanup, mowing, garden bed upkeep, fall cleanup and winter snow clearing, aimed at commercial properties, property managers, condo boards and homeowner associations. That commercial focus is worth knowing about if you are a single homeowner, though the reviews show residential work too.

Homeowner reviews describe a townhouse yard designed and installed, a dog run and a grading fix after a builder's settling problem, a front yard completed after a backyard job in 2018, and a backyard that combined hardscape and a deck. Ben is the name that appears most often. The Better Business Bureau, the Alberta Construction Safety Association and the Canadian Condominium Institute are listed on the site as memberships. Staff training in pesticide application and health and safety is also listed. The site does not publish a licence or insurance number, so ask for the certificate of insurance. Alberta does not license landscapers provincially.

Embark suits homeowners who want a drawn design and a full build with carpentry and hardscape under one roof. It suits less well anyone who only needs weekly mowing. Before booking, ask for the itemized scope in writing, the design revision terms, the warranty wording and the construction start date. The site lists Saturday hours that differ from Google, so call ahead. Embark holds 4.8 from 82 Google reviews, read 2026-11-05.
