This was out of the norm for us but we were trusted to do a bunch of landscaping for a customer in melrose and just wrapped it all up yesterday!
Our customer loves natural looking landscaping so for the majority of this project that is what she got!
Last fall we installed the boulder wall for her fire pit area, without fabric behind the boulders so grass would purposely grow through.
This spring we modified the fire pit area a little bit, added some outcroppings, and added more pea rock to make the area flow better.
My favorite part is that she came to us looking for a natural looking dry creek bed. This was a first for us but I think we knocked it out of the park!
The patio was created with flat stone pieces she had from a previous project that got taken apart.
My new guy mason put together this small boulder wall to repair a section that was moved for access to a tree removal.
A few other things we did but not pictured.
We reshaped around her detached garage and added an exposed French drain to divert the water away from the garage.
We added some outcroppings and steps to a grain bin seating area up on a hill.
We added outcroppings down her driveway.
We are happy to finally be done with this job after MANY rain delays so we have our smaller equipment back in rotation for many other jobs coming up.
