THE FINAL LANDSCAPE
Our team is committed to enhancing our clients’ most important investment by exceeding their lawn service needs. The goal was to keep it spacious and low maintenance, while keeping the pool as the focal point. For this project we incorporated stone and woodchips to break up the flow from the concrete decking. New sod, and a Texas shaped decor stone was added to complete the project.
THE CHALLENGES IN THE DESIGN
The plants in this landscape had been neglected. It was all hands-on-deck. Trimmers, rakes, shovels and every other kind of tool we could think of.
THE FINAL LANDSCAPE
In this project our team added seasonal colors and accent stones to create a a low maintenance landscape perfect for the Summer.
Customer was looking to add a central sitting area, incorporating a fire-pit area, a possible (future) grilling area, with room to relax and enjoy the incredible yard they have.
The project in size and scope grew after the initial layout was completed, as the size of the sitting area was increased. This was not a problem, as constant communication was in place, as well as proper change request documentation.
Work began with grading and weed-control cloth being laid, followed by a leveling bed of crushed limestone. a natural grade was put in place so that water would drain properly, all encompassed by metal edging.
Over 18 tons of flagstone was meticulously hand-placed – stone by stone by a group of landscapers. The fire pit ring was put in place with surrounding stones built around it to create a great central focal spot. Crushed granite was brought in and “cemented” in to complete the sitting area.
Bermuda sod was laid, from the back of the house down to the sitting area, with a flagstone walking path leading from the house to the sitting area. Flower/plant beds were put into place around the whole house.
I have to say, it was a tough project for Bryan, Shawn and Bob from Bruce’s Property Services, but I have to say, the results are very much, well, AWESOME!! We love the backyard now, from a great place to BBQ, to relaxing around the fire-pit.

The Landscape Techs have been enjoying the installation of a few flagstone patio and sitting area’s. The color, layout and crushed granite filler create an incredible look and feel.
Couple that with new flowerbeds and mulch and you’ve got yourself a yard to be proud of!
