Water Gardens
Water gardening is a way of bringing in the vital elements
of nature and life into your yard, for both relaxation and
the enjoyment of nature’s sights and sounds. A water garden
will attract birds of all kinds and will also give back to
nature what most construction takes away.
Imagine inviting nature into your own yard,
and relaxing after a hard days’ work surrounded by your own
"world of nature". Why not give back to the
environment by adding one of nature's most beautiful natural
gifts.....a water garden. With the beautiful colors of
aquatic plants, colorful fish, and the sights and sounds of
nature, it will sweep you away to a beautiful paradise where
you can relax and let go of the pressures of the day.
Annual & Perennial Gardens
No garden is complete without some color. Annuals and
perennials are both good for different reasons; annuals will
give you that endless blooming from May until the first
frost, but will have to be replaced every year, where
perennials on the other hand, have their times of blooming
which can be planted with many varieties to give you May
until Fall with colors and blooms, but don’t have to be
replaced every year and will last, with the proper care and
maintenance. Sometimes we suggest using both annuals and
perennials to even out the blooming times to keep a
continuous bloom and lower the cost of a total replanting of
the garden.
Formal &
Informal Gardens
The style of most yards and gardens fall under these two
categories. But every yard is a part of a family or
person’s likes and dislikes, functional and pleasurable.
Our company likes to build a yard through the ideas and
input of our clients, balanced by our experiences, to make
the yard both beautiful and workable, as well as make it
last.
Vegetable & Herb Gardens
Some of our clients wish to have fresh vegetables and/or
herbs in their yard to pick and enjoy. Our company
provides our clients with the ability to do just that. We
can help start a vegetable and/or herb garden right, by
properly preparing the soil for our client’s planting needs.
Nothing is as good tasting and healthy as fresh
vegetables/herbs right from your own garden.
Also, children too will get enjoyment from what they grow.
How proud will the little ones be when they get to pick the
vegetables/herbs that their very own little hands planted!
Priceless!
Japanese, English and Cottage Gardens
Some of our clients have
an idea in mind, maybe from their travels, or something from
when they were growing up, that make them desire a certain
kind of garden, and we are happy to help them make their
dreams come true. Whether it comes from pictures they
like or just from their own ideas, we will work with each
and every client to make their “dream garden” become a
reality. Over time when the plants take good root and
begin to fill in, (after the proper care and maintenance,
and let’s not forget the watering!) they will see their
garden paradise dreams come alive right before their very
eyes.
Trees & Shrubs
We install trees and
shrubs of all kinds to add to, or create a new planting.
Whether it is for privacy, to cover a part of the yard which
is bare and/or unsightly, or just to add that “woodsy” look
to your yard, we can help you pick and then install the
right tree and/or shrub for your needs.
CONSULTING SERVICES
We provide consulting services for those customers or
businesses which need expert advice on various types of
project(s), which they may be working on, such as water
gardens, landscaping, or any other field in which we have
expertise. Consulting services can be a very helpful and
cost-effective tool in keeping you from costly mistakes,
which may cause you to have to re-build an entire project.
MAINTENANCE SERVICES:
Water Gardens
Water garden maintenance
is an essential part of owning a water feature, as good
maintenance will assist in its longevity. We offer
maintenance services and/or contracts to keep your water
garden working smoothly and efficiently all year long. We
have a well-trained staff, and a fully equipped “Pond Pod”
vehicle exclusively for these maintenance services. These
services can consist of a spring clean out and start up, and
a fall clean out and shut down; a full year maintenance
contract which consists of a spring clean out and start up,
several visits during the year, and a fall clean out and
shut down; or we can provide water garden maintenance
services on an “as-needed basis”.
Rain Water Recovery Systems
Our company offers the installation of a rain water recovery
system (for irrigation purposes ONLY). We can provide
our clients with the ability to recover the rain water
runoff from their roof and recycle it for use in watering
their gardens. What a great “GOING GREEN” idea!
Lawns
Our lawn maintenance team provides lawn mowing services, on
a weekly or bi-weekly basis. We also install lawns, by
either sod or seed, or we can also fix an existing lawn by
aeration and dethatching. We can also add soil and re-grade
a lawn if necessary.
Snow Plowing
Our company provides snow
plowing and/or shoveling and snow blowing services during
the winter season.
Pruning & Trimming
Our well-trained staff, can hand-prune or trim most bushes
and shrubs at the right time and will inform our clients
when it is needed. We also re-shape bushes and small trees
back into a shape that is both appealing and healthy for its
future growth.
Mulching
Mulching is needed at least once a year for two reasons, one
is to keep weeds out and the other is to hold down moisture
in the beds. There are also more than one kind and color of
mulch due to dyed mulches, and if a client so wishes, we can
also use gravel as an alternative type of mulch.
Weeding
We maintain flower and shrub beds by keeping the unwanted
plants out, thereby allowing the others to prosper. This can
be done on a weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly basis as need. We
also cut back or divide plants, remove, or relocate plants
as needed, or as requested by our clients.
Patios & Walkways
We install all kinds of
patios and walkways. Anything from the basic flagstone/stone
to brick or paving stones, which come in so many different
sizes, shapes, textures and colors, which, in turn, can be
arranged in different patterns. Having so many options to
pick from, our company has the ability to work together with
our clients, in order to get the best look that will
compliment their individual existing landscape, or
incorporate an incredible patio or walkway into their plans
for a new landscape planting. From simple garden/walkway
paths to large patios or walkways, we will work together to
make sure our clients are happy with whatever patio or
walkway installation they have chosen.
Masonry
We build walls out of
various materials such as local or out-of-state stone,
stacking wall block, which also has many different sizes,
shapes, textures and colors, which is becoming increasingly
popular because of its overall appearance. Installing walls
is a great way of using land which has hills, in a new and
beautiful way, with either garden terraces or patios or any
combination of the two. It is all up to one’s own taste
and/or imagination.
Gravel & Paver Driveways
Gravel driveways give our clients an option of having color
and texture over asphalt driveways, provide traction in the
winter, and will also produce noise, which is important in
announcing the approach of a car to or from one’s property.
Gravel can also be used in pathways for gardens as a more
rustic look. Pavers can also be used for creating beautiful
driveways of color, texture and patterns to give your
driveway a rustic or formal look. Pavers are also better
than asphalt, as they have the ability to move independently
of each other during our seasonal transitions, which would
normally crack and destroy asphalt driveways.
