Custom Patio Gallery
Patios and walkways are an integral aspect of the landscape.  Although plants are important in the landscape, they are ephemeral elements that are constantly changing.  Hardscapes, on the other hand, provide a consistent tapestry that supports your landscape throughout the seasons.  Think of your hardscapes as your exterior "carpet."  The question is, "Do you want an ordinary berber or do you feel a little more creative?"

Blending Beauty with the Function
This projects was one of our personal favorites.  In order to blend with the adjacent beach, we developed a series of ramps and retaining walls to provide access.  We utilized travertine, clay brick, and thermal blistered limestone accents to create a soft, natural feel.



 

Hand Molded Clay Brick
Sometimes, a residence style calls for the time tested look of hand molded brick.  Here we have used Belcrest 760's to provide an English Cottage Garden effect in the Thornberry Creek Estates.



Scenic Patio Overlooking the Bay
Our client wanted a fire pit and patio to enjoy the view of Bailey's Harbor.  We created a pre-cast unit-block wall for increased seating capacity and maintained the rustic cottage feel by utilizing vernacular limestone for the patio surface.



 

Commemorative Patio Surface

Sometimes It Just Must Be Tile
There is no reason to limit yourself to "just concrete and brick."  With the advancement of epoxies and waterproof membranes, we are now able to install quality weatherproof tiles outside to continue your interior specifications to your outdoor environment.  The results can be just spectacular!
