Why Adjala-Tosorontio Homeowners Call GDS
Adjala-Tosorontio is Simcoe County’s countryside — rolling farmland, rural estates, and acreages around Everett, Colgan, and Loretto, minutes from the city but a world apart. The properties here are bigger, the driveways are longer, and the wish lists are different: privacy from the road, outdoor living with a view of the fields, and grounds that look cared for without becoming a full-time job. GDS Landscaping and General Contracting builds the outdoor spaces and interior renovations Adjala-Tosorontio homeowners ask for.
Acreage work is its own discipline. We build long interlocking driveways and walkways that handle daily traffic and snowplows, retaining walls for the township’s rolling grades, and landscape lighting that makes a rural property feel safe and welcoming after dark. Privacy plantings — cedar hedges, mixed evergreen screens — are one of our most-requested jobs out here, for estates that back onto concession roads. And for the horse properties and hobby farms scattered through the township, we handle everything from paddock-adjacent fencing to drainage that keeps laneways usable in spring.
Rural doesn’t mean rough. The best acreage landscapes we build are designed for low maintenance: large mulched beds with hardy plantings, stone and interlock hardscaping that outlasts wood, and grading that moves water away from the house before it becomes a problem. Inside, estate homes often get the full treatment too — basement renovations, kitchens, and additions — and we handle those under the same roof, so one contractor manages the whole property.

A Local Note
On acreage, start with drainage and the driveway — they’re the two things that will punish you every spring if they’re wrong. We see a lot of rural properties where the laneway washes out annually because water was never managed. Get the grading and culverts right first, then build the beautiful stuff on top. And if you’re on a well and septic, tell us before we dig: we plan every project around them.
