PARKSVILLE, BC – February 10, 2026 – The Sharp Design Landscape Group Ltd., a full-service landscaping and outdoor living company based in Parksville, British Columbia, is proud to mark over 28 years of continuous operation serving homeowners throughout Central Vancouver Island. Since opening its doors in 1998, the company has grown from a local landscaping provider into one of the Oceanside region’s most comprehensive outdoor design-build firms, offering services that span landscape design, stonework and masonry, outdoor living construction, excavation, trucking, and energy-efficient lighting and irrigation.

Serving the Full Oceanside Corridor

The Sharp Design serves residential clients across the mid-Vancouver Island Oceanside corridor, including Parksville, Qualicum Beach, Nanoose Bay, Lantzville, and French Creek. The company’s deep familiarity with the region’s unique coastal climate—characterized by wet, salt-laden winters and dry summer stretches—has been central to its longevity and reputation.

“Our team understands the specific challenges that come with building landscapes on the mid-Island,” said Jay Sharp, President & CEO of The Sharp Design. “From managing heavy winter rainfall drainage to selecting drought-tolerant native plantings that thrive through dry summers, every project we take on reflects nearly three decades of hands-on experience with these soils, these seasons, and these communities.”

Full-Service Landscape Design and Construction

Over the years, The Sharp Design has expanded its capabilities well beyond traditional landscaping. Today, the company operates as a complete design-build firm with in-house expertise across five core service areas:

Landscaping: Custom planting plans and hardscape layouts engineered for mid-Island soils and seasonal conditions.

Stonework and Masonry: Hand-laid stone walls, patios, retaining structures, and fire pits designed for lasting durability and aesthetic appeal.

Outdoor Living: Custom-built cedar decks, pergolas, outdoor kitchens, and year-round living spaces.

Excavation, Trucking and Site Preparation: Precision grading, solid sub-base installation, and environmentally responsible material removal.

Lighting and Irrigation: Low-voltage, Dark Sky-compliant LED landscape lighting and smart irrigation systems that reduce water consumption while enhancing night-time safety and curb appeal.

3D Design Technology Sets Projects Apart

A hallmark of The Sharp Design’s approach is its use of 3D landscape design technology. Every full-scope project begins with an on-site consultation, followed by scaled plans and photorealistic 3D renderings that allow clients to visualize their completed outdoor space before construction begins. This design-first methodology helps eliminate guesswork, reduces costly change orders, and ensures that every element—from native plantings to stone patio placement to LED lighting positions—is finalized before the first shovel breaks ground.

A Commitment to Quality and Community

The Sharp Design’s mission has remained consistent since 1998: to create beautiful, functional landscapes that meet client needs and exceed expectations. The company operates on a fixed-quote model with a single project lead assigned to each engagement, providing homeowners with clear budgets, predictable timelines, and direct accountability throughout the build process. All completed projects include a written warranty and a detailed care guide.

The company’s consistently high client satisfaction is reflected in its ratings on Houzz, where homeowners across the Oceanside region have recognized The Sharp Design for quality craftsmanship, reliable project management, and responsive communication.
