Entrance Extraordinaire

Here are some picture of a gorgeous entrance we did last year.  We completed all the concrete work (of course!) as well as the railings and landscaping.  Curbs really add to the flower beds, and the landscape stone really completes the entrance.

Before & After Front Entrance

Check out this amazing transformation from a drab front entrance to a gorgeous, jaw-dropping one!  We can do this for you, too!

BEFORE:

As you can see, this was a very dated inter-locking brick sidewalk leading up to the front entrance of this house.  A bit of an awkward layout as well - not very direct to the front door.

DURING:

Our team got in there and prepared the site.

AFTER:

 As you can see, this entrance is completely transformed!  We love how this turned out.  The sidewalk is so unique and beautiful.  It provides a much better walkway to the front door and looks incredible!  This transformation has definitely increased home value!

We also did all the stonework and landscaping for this job.  We do more than just concrete!

Amazing details!

Backyard Hardscape - Before & After

Our biggest job of the season so far has been a custom hardscaping of a backyard.  Get ready for a LOT of photos!  Without further ado, here are the "before" photos!

There was an above-ground pool 

 Some run-down fencing

 A wood deck by the pool

 An additional deck leading up to the pool

 After demolishing the pool, decks, and original landscaping, we had a blank slate and began to stake out the custom design with the customer.

This project included many elements.  Multiple levels of concrete decks, all stamped and coloured, including steps between them and a sidewalk to the front of the house.  A concrete waterfall and river with a small bridge over it breaks up some of the spaces.  There is a built-in firepit.  A facelift was given to the gazebo with custom lattice, railings, and a new floor to bring it back to life.  A pergola was built for additional shaded seating on a different level.  Curbs were poured and stamped for flower beds.  Landscape stone, mulch, and river stone were brought in.  Outdoor lights were installed.  Handmade privacy lattice was installed around perimeters.  

Here are the long-awaited "AFTER" pictures!
