Rock & Engineered Walls, etc.

This home used took advantage of the landscape and had several different tiers and living spaces created. Unfortunately we do not have pictures of everything but I hope that you will be able to get a feel of the landscaping. The homeowner used engineered walls as well as rock retaining walls in their landscape. The installation of fire pits, paver patios, planter beds and green spaces will provide areas unique areas that can be designated for different uses that will suit the homeowner and their family.

Flagstone is another material that can be incorporated into a landscape that can soften a walkway that is very different than the use of concrete.
Again, the use of stone slab steps create a softer feel compared to concret.

This engineered wall her shows how the blocks can be placed to create a curve along the driveway that leads to the home. There is a space or gap that is created that can be used as a planter bed where a drip irrigation system can be installed.

  2. We will be going back to this project for some additional work. I am not sure if the homeowner will have us do the planting or if they are going to do it.

    Once the snow melts and work can begin we should know more.
