Backyard Renovation

What a treat to design with a clean slate. This weekend we began work on a backyard that formerly had been a large stand of pines. Having removed these revealed a potentially beautiful backyard...in need of new trees! This is where I apply the adage "the right tree in the right place".

What this landscape also needed was a step frequently skipped by homeowners in the desire to save money. A professional grader was brought in to fill and smooth out the surface so that water would drain properly off the property, thus minimizing any plants or grass sitting in standing water. Dirt Tech gave a us a great smooth surface to work with and helped get those giant trees in
position for planting.

Stay tuned for the 'After' pictures!
