Hardscape
"Hardscape" refers to the permanent, durable elements of the landscape such as the patios, walkways, driveways, walls and outbuildings. Our expert crews can work with wood, brick, block, stone, concrete, segmental retaining wall systems or interlocking pavers to accommodate any design.
DRIVEWAYS
We can replace your old buckled asphalt or cracked concrete driveway with a new driveway in the same location or reconfigure the direction from which you enter your property. A vast array of materials are suitable for use as a driveway. Besides concrete and ashpalt, we use brick, stone, interlocking pavers alone or in combination, which can transform your driveway into a work of art.
PATIOS, PATHWAYS & STEPS
We design patios, pathways and steps to direct how you move through and how you use your landscape.
RETAINING WALLS
Sloped sites often require terracing to create useable spaces in the landscape. Retaining walls are used to support changes in elevation in cut or filled areas. Walls range from dry stack garden walls to large structural retaining walls. Structural walls can be built on large concrete footings (veneered with stucco or stone) or use a segmental retaining wall system (SRW) which incorporates a geogrid fabric for stability.
FENCES & DECKS
Fences are used for a variety of reasons and desiged according to their intended purpose. Whether you need security, protection from deer or simply a decorative picket fence we build fences with your needs as well as your aesthetic taste in mind.
Wood decks are used for a variety of reasons. Decks can make use of space on a slope without the need of costly retaining walls, can be installed to take advantage of a view or simply to create an outdoor space from an upper floor of your home. Whatever the purpose, we caninstall a deck to suit your taste.
ARBORS & TRELLISES
Arbors and trellises provide beauty as well as function. Used as a means to train plant growth, an arbor can provide shade to a hot patio or built with a covering to provide protection from the rain. A trellis can support a beautiful flowering vine while screening an unsightly wall.
SWIMMING POOLS & SPAS
Swimming pools and spas are often an important element of the residential garden. We work with you to develop the best layout, shape and location for your swimming pool and spa. We coordinate with many of the area's top swimming pool contractors to build the pools you've always wanted.
WATER FEATURES
Used as a focal point or tucked away in a quiet corner, a water feature can provide a soothing element to any garden. From a formal fountain to a reflecting pond or even a raging waterfall, we can design and build a water feature that will be the envy of your friends and neighbors.
PLAY STRUCTURES
A garden is meant to be enjoyed by all who enter. However, toddlers and young children may not yet appreciate a rose garden so we pay close attention to how the garden will be used. For families with children, we often recommend setting a place apart for the rough and tumble activities children enjoy. We can design and build the play area that will make your child the most popular kid in the neighborhood.
