Brick Paver and Natural Stone Walks and Patios
Did you know that the pavers we use are many more times stronger than concrete. It’s true, in fact when installed with the correct engineered foundation, edging and maintenance, its life can far exceed concrete and other paving materials. The beauty of pavers and natural stone will enhance your landscape and give added value and functionality to your outdoor living areas. We install an enormous variety of superior quality materials from reputable suppliers that will exceed your expectations.Retaining Walls
You may choose natural or pre-cast materials, thick or thin, large or small we install it all. Retaining walls add so much dimension, color and texture to a landscape. They can be used to highlight contour, direct traffic and help correct drainage. Walls can have so many uses, ask to see some of the materials available and choose what is right for you.
Waterfalls and Garden Ponds
Just want to relaxe in your back yard…. Then we can design a water feature for you! If you want a large multi-tiered falls system guaranteed to amaze or just a trickle of water there is nothing like the sound and sight of water to relaxe the senses. We can design ponds with koi and other fish, aquatic plant and statues or you may choose to have a “Pondless Waterfall” . Some folks want the falls but not everything else that comes with it…. We can do that too! Pondless falls have a matrix that contains the pump which is buried beneath stone, the water runs into the stone and is recirculated back up to the top of the waterfall….they are very popular!
Finish Grading, Hydroseeding and Sod
“First things first” Grandpa used to say. If you plant seed on a poor grade your lawn could hold water or worse yet, possibly create a wet basement. Proper grading makes a perfect yard better! Whether you add some contour and berms or make it flat, experience and the right equipment can make all the difference.
