Our most recent backyard makeover/ joint project with Wilder Things Landscaping. We rebuilt the failing limestone retaining wall, got rid of all the overgrown grasses and installed japanese painted ferns and hostas in the shade and an array of sun loving perennials for the sun garden beds. We also installed an basalt column pondless water feature to create the sound of flowing water and accent the colors in the reclaimed limestone. Big thank you to Don Grubb for helping us load stone, McCloud Lawncare for the mini dumpster, and Brad Bain with Bloomington Powerwashing and Softwashing for detailing the project at the end.

Big thank you to Don Grubb for helping us load stone today. These stones are about 600lbs each and will be a nice base for our latest retaining wall. Don Grubb is 94 years old and still kicking around on his excavator!

Another successful joint project with Wilder Things Landscaping. A car accident toppled this older stone wall. We rebuilt the culvert facade with the stone on site. We installed Belgard Great Lakes Anglina edgers as a curb on both sides of the drive to check any tires that might be headed for the ditch. It's a much more modern look and much more structurally sound.

Big thank you to Complete Masonry Supplies for the materials.
