A beautiful job has all the right components.

Here is a professionally done landscape. Take notice of all the colors, textures, contrasting sizes and shapes. An interesting landscape is comprised of many elements, coordinated into one attractive theme.

Bouldered Bank

Here is a nice example of boulders as the building blocks of a landscape. Glacial Granite boulders are used as the wall element, granted man made products work nicely as well. With this naturalized setting however we think boulders really makes the project.

Duncan – Pavered Bridge

Here is our first steel and concrete bridge finished in pavers. We built this from scratch and it looks wonderful when under lighted at night.

Here is what we began with on this project.Â Little do I know at present but this is going to turn into a turn key project for us.Â First in, last out… we inevitably walk thisÂ project right through all phases of construction.

In this case our customer had purchased a home and was left with some challenging problems.Â The prior home owner had built a wall that didn’t fit into the new home owners game plan.Â We were commisioned to take out the old and bring in the new.Â The wall was failing in spots and re-building it with out having a source for additional stone to match was not an option.

This renovation involved adding natural Limestone snap steps, pavered walkways and patio withÂ a pondless water feature and landscaping.

This is where we began. A customer seeking a new look is often how our jobs start.

Tennity – Retaining wall, flagstone path, dry creek bed

Here at the Tennity Project, we installed a retaining wall behind the pool. As you can see we added a dry creek bed to eliminate trapped water. Then we installed a flagstone path to the golf course.
