No better feeling than relaxing by a waterfall! It makes all the hard work worth it! www.rockscapescanada.com #landscapes #landscaping #waterfall #missisauga #Guelph #milton #landscaping #waterscapes #artifiicalrock #rockwork #carved #precast #concrete #concretedecor #luxury #backyard #backyarddesign #built #custombuilt #madeinontario (at Mississauga, Ontario) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBdeN0ppi5p/?igshid=1l2sowyyyvueo
Every part of this design build came out exactly as imagined from the moment we stepped on the property. Supply chains were broken during the beginning which between the glass and the times made this a difficult build but in the end it turned out as dreamed!

Front waterfall for this koi pond is looking awesome! Check it this slow motion video! Happy Thursday! www.rockscapescanada.com #artificialrocks #waterfallsofinstagram (at Mississauga, Ontario) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBSxX2rJnS9/?igshid=5mrpvijh2qbr
Love the sound of waterfalls in the morning!! Easily my favourite thing to create.

Back side of a turtle pond in the African Pavilion at the Toronto Zoo right before the animals were released. We incorporated sealed real roots within the structure to replicate a washed out river bank. www.rockscapescanada.com #artificalrocks #fauxrock #artifiicalrock #mud #turtlepond #pond #Torontozoo (at Toronto, Ontario) https://www.instagram.com/p/CAIA1HhJDhp/?igshid=877b2k3h9rt2
The opposite side and top details of the new faux beam. High quality moulds pick up every last detail of the original piece which has aged to perfection over the course of decades. People sometimes ask if the original was perfect why make artificial copies? My answer is simple! One concrete does not age as quickly as wood, so you can enjoy this look for much much much longer! www.rockscapescanada.com #fauxtree #fauxwood #artifiicalrock #mould #precast #concrete #cement #shotcrete #sculpted #replicated #ideas #architecture #possibilities #milton #guelph #georgetown #acton (at Guelph, Ontario) https://www.instagram.com/p/CAFgnKYJRuU/?igshid=1v9z5jyompkru
A special update post from this week's leopard and green frog habitat we built and explained how the keepers knew that the frogs needed a larger ledge at the right height. The proof is in the pudding!! www.rockscapescanada.com #frogs #frog #artificialrocks #habitat #built #custom #customersalwaysright #rockscapes #sciencenorth #sudbury #Guelph #concrete (at Science North) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_-DOw9p_IU/?igshid=1abwtbj0152gf
Final shot of our reptile and amphibian habitat week! Side shot of the spotted turtle bridging from water to land. You don't have to have a large tank to create a unique environment for these amazing animals! www.rockscapescanada.com #turtle #turtles #turtlepond #turtletank #turtlesofinstagram #custom #aquariums #aquascapes (at Science North) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_7PMAoJn1l/?igshid=1dufpvzvmpots
One is the things I love when a habitat is built is when that depth is created from graphics or murals. It makes the whole habitats feel immersive and expanded. The left is meant to be a waterfall and pond so I can't wait to go back and get a photo of this up and running! Who wouldn't want a mini waterfall in their terrarium? www.rockscapescanada.com #Toronto #Torontozoo #habitat #mural #terrarium #built #custom #concrete #waterfall #pond #frogs #Guelph #artificialrocks #immersiveexperience (at Toronto Zoo) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_4qhmJp9C-/?igshid=18z60bxf406wk
One of the best parts of working with species experts like those @sciencenorth is that they know Exactly what their little friends need. We built this insert for the green and leopard frogs based on a list of requirements, when we got there the Blue coats we able to come see, look for 5min and know that they needed a better larger basking area at very specific water level heights and they also needed an interactive cave. We immediately got to work and made the changes needed so that the best possible habitat was available. Whether you are a frog, snake, polar bear or person we feel responsible on making sure you have the best possible experience. We even got a little waterfall incorporated! Do you have any tanks at home? How big and what species do you keep? www.rockscapescanada.com #frogs #tanks #tanked #artificialrock #habitat #amphibians #custom #sciencenorth #rockscapes #aquascapes #ilovemyjob❤️ (at Science North) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_2Jr9FpK0w/?igshid=5fu8sr0kyyya
A cool little habitat we built for a few toads at the Toronto Zoo. Sadly I haven't been back to see the animals released into their habitat yet, but I can't wait to go back and get some photos. This project had a number of unique features. The planting pockets were actually 3D printed before being covered in concrete, there were also pockets carved into the rock base so that the toads could burrow in as they do in nature. A small pond and a rock door to minimize the impact and immersion. www.rockscapescanada.com #toads #pond #terrarium #custom #toronto #zoo #habitat #built #concrete #artificialrock (at Toronto, Ontario) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_zmmGBpvlh/?igshid=yar31ck5vf1d
Happy Monday everyone!! Since we dropped the ball a bit last week we are going to finish our 5 day/5 post commitment on habitats for amphibians and reptiles! Today's is a Bull frog habitat we built for @sciencenorth. This whole project was an incredible one, we had to match the individual needs of each species while making it look like we took snap shots of environments, all while keeping to the overall shape and theme. www.rockscapescanada.com #artificialrocks #artificialrock #aquariums #amphibians #built #custom #terrarium #bullfrog #Sculpting (at Science North) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_w8aR6JBmq/?igshid=sceqjhulx1tj
Happy Friday everyone! This was the very first project that I (Padraic) was able to do all of the finish work since the habitat spec called for all mud it was hard to mess up! That being said I learned so much without that safety net. I mixed, hauled, slung, and textured everything and it was to be done in the day. I learned a lot about pacing and making sure I never had a dry edge, saving me from seams. The Zoo staff was then able to come in and make the Habitat a far more enjoyable spot for these species of frogs. How many of you wish you could go back to your first job and upgrade it to your current skill level? www.rockscapescanada.com #frogs #frog #habitat #zoo #concrete #fauxrock #rockscapes #artificialrock #built #custom #toronto #zoo (at Toronto, Ontario) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_pNMJWpo_5/?igshid=1cyb5kprq8bbx
Sorry we missed a few days! Lots of planning going on over here! People wants their waterfalls, ponds etc. Museums are planning ahead, parks still want their cliffs, and sculptures, and all the other exciting projects that would've been being built all need a new plan of attack! Ok so here we have one of our frog habitats we create at Ontario Science center. One of the neatest parts of this build is that it exists in the larger rainforest exhibit. The goal was essentially to create a snapshot of the larger environment allowing people to see and learn about multiple species. www.rockscapescanada.com #frogs #frog #habitat #terrarium #built #custom #customtank #rainforest #osc #ontario #guelph #milton #georgetown #toronto #concrete #precast #nature #design (at Ontario Science Centre) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_mkZktJiGh/?igshid=1j4ygeovr6ozy
As requested this week will be all about reptile and amphibian habitats that we've done over the years. This is a unit we developed and created for @sciencenorth 's snake habitats. The goal was a more pleasing breeder bin that was viewable by the public, easy for the snakes to get in and for the Blue coats to clean. @tisdalepk sent us these amazing shots! Tell us what you think!

One of the biggest things I've learned while putting this week's posts together is that I need to take more videos and pictures of the process! I can't believe I have so few videos. That being said here is a good example of the stamping and carving process. You've seen the rolling, the brushing, next is stamping. Selection is so important! For every panel series we have a stamp series, plus a lot of general stamps. This particular job is a very specific style of granite that matches the geology in the area. So without a stamp to replicate and stay true to the flow, there would be a ton of extra work. It's also important to understand that stamping will never give the same depth and clean lines that a precast panel will. This is where the carving comes in! But first make sure that all of your lines, textures, and features line up with the big picture. As soon as you start carving a line with no beginning and no end is when you need to start over. I've seen so many S's and random X's plus a few other random parts of the alphabet in people's work (including some of our artists in training, before we make them start over) we say Everytime you pick up your carving knife have a reason to do so, if the stamping is good enough leave it! We know there are a ton of incredible artists in this community, tell us some of your tips and tricks! www.rockscapescanada.com #art #artificialrock #carving #sculpting #built #spa #pool #poolandspa #howto #behindthescenes #concrete #cement #ilovemyjob #artistsofig #instagram #aboutus #precast #buildersofig #stampedconcrete #waterfall #pool #custom #ontario #milton #guelph #acton #toronto #natural (at Rockscapes of Canada Inc.) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_XQzHqJdVL/?igshid=1qpbvjm3gzee4
Scoured my videos to see if I had a good one but frankly I'm horrible at getting in action filming! Let's call that a new goal lol. Either way the next step to sculpting with panel is to brush in your edges. The brush is a fantastic tool and truthfully gets used from this point on. After the mud is on, rolled, we brush the edges, but we also brush carved lines to soften when needed, we go over everything so that no spot is missed and then we switch with each other when possible to quality control. This is one of the most important roles and easiest to mess up. New artists sole job is to roll and brush until they get that perfect, then stamping is next! I've lived the discussion on the past few posts everyone! Thank you!
