Below you find photographs of some of our recently completed projects.  We are including before and after photos so that you can enjoy the dramatic changes that we have made to our clients properties.

BURLINGTON, NEW JERSEY - CURB APPEAL - NEW FRONT PORCH, RAILINGS AND POSTS and JAPANESE GARDEN

This property was neat and tidy, but the homeowner wanted to add some curb appeal.  This project was truly a cooperative effort, with the customer involved in the design process.  We decided to use EP Henry material for the porch and added new low maintenance railings and posts.  For the beds around the foundation of the house and the large stone bed in the front yard, we installed a Japanese Garden, complete with a water feature and many rare and unusual dwarf evergreens.   Notice the red stone bed in the BEFORE picture and compare that with the transformed new look.  We chose plants that would draw a passerby's attention in their form and placement.  Some of the plants used on this project can't be found anywhere in the area.

LUMBERTON, NEW JERSEY - BACKYARD WALKWAY AND LOW MAINTENANCE PLANTING BED

Our clients wanted to eliminate a concrete walking that was poorly constructed and too narrow to be of use.  Additionally, they wanted to re-grade the area around the foundation and install some underground drainage to alleviate some drainage problems.  We thought a wider walkway would be more inviting and recommended a large planting area, and installed in a mass planting Hypericum (St. John's Wort) and used river stone as a mulch.  The walkway was enlarged and a subtle curve was added for aesthetics.  Drainage was improved and drain lines were installed under the walkway, terminating in the yard, some 20 - 30 feet from the foundation of the house.

WESTAMPTON, NEW JERSEY - BACKYARD PATIO WITH SITTING WALL AND COLUMNS and FRONT PORCH AND WALKWAY

This property located in a golf course community lacked sufficient outdoor entertaining space for the homeowners.   The homeowners chose a design to fit their lifestyle and entertaining needs.  The patio was created using pavers and wall material that complement the existing home.  A sitting wall, allowing for increased use of the patio, and columns accent the patio and home.  The front porch and walkway was replaced with a new porch and walkway to match the backyard project.

MOUNT LAUREL, NEW JERSEY - NEW FRONT PORCH AND LANDINGS

The homeowners of this well-maintained property wanted to replace their existing front entryway with something new and more substantial.  They were also looking for something that would be maintenance free and more impervious to the elements and insect pests.  Careful consideration to both the architecture of the home and the homeowners tastes were used when designing the new front porch and landings / walkway.  We removed the rotten wooden structure and replaced it with a custom-built paver project.  Notice the attention to detail . . .

BURLINGTON, NEW JERSEY - BACKYARD TERRACED PATIO

This home lacked an outdoor entertaining space as the builder only provided a small concrete slab when built.  The homeowner new exactly what she wanted and chose a brand new concrete paving product which imitates large stone slabs (without the upkeep and maintenance).  This new product combined with a concrete paver wall provided an incredibly unique look.  It's safe to say that you can far and wide and never see a patio similar to this in your travels. . .  The columns serve as an additional sitting area and also as a planter where two clematis have been planted and will be trained to climb the supports for the upper deck.

HADDONFIELD, NEW JERSEY - BACKYARD PATIO AND STEPS

The homeowners of this quaint Haddonfield home wanted to replace their outdated and relatively small concrete patio with something a bit more stylish and in tune with their home.  We worked on a design and decided upon a beautiful brick red paver with hues of grey throughout.  Soft curves accentuated by a soldier course were used throughout . . .

WESTAMPTON, NEW JERSEY - NEW FRONT PORCH, WALKWAY AND WALL

The homeowners of this property wanted to update their front entryway to include a new porch, redesigned walkway and a wall to retain a planting bed.  The existing concrete was removed and plants were shuffled about the property, providing us with a virtual blank slate from which to create the new look.  Using materials to match an existing backyard patio, we designed and installed the project you see below.  There was a pretty dramatic change in the appearance of the home after our work was completed.

WASHINGTON, DC - CREATING CURB APPEAL

The following property located in Washington, D.C. was recently purchased and needed a punch to liven the curb appeal of this terrific property.  After substantial discussion and planning, a design was chosen to provide the homeowners with a low maintenance, high impact, richly textured planting bed.  Plants were chosen for their interesting shapes and colors as well as their ability to provide year-round interest.   Boulders, red rock and landscape lighting completed the project.

EASTAMPTON - EP HENRY WALL, PATH AND ELEVATED PATIO PROJECT

The following property located in Eastampton, New Jersey suffered from a lack of curb appeal.  Its cinder block retaining wall, poured concrete walkway and brick and concrete front porch showed severe signs of age and greatly detracted from the beautiful home and surrounding neighborhood.  We incorporated two curved walls joined by four steps, a winding pathway that leads to an elevated patio.  The yard was re-graded and seeded to finish the project.
