Landscape Problem Areas

The shrubs and bushes were overgrown and blocking the view of the brick exterior. There was a lack of color and the rock bed was showing weeds and bare spots where the weed barrier was exposed.

Restoration of the landscaping was achieved by creating a new design on paper and after getting an O.K  on the plan.  It all started by removing the existing material and starting from a clean slate. Black dirt was installed with a proper grade away from the home.The new plantings where placed according to the design. Next we lay down the weed barrier between the plants. To finish the project new decorative rock was spread evenly over the planting bed and the final task of cleaning up and hauling away of debris.
