The last several weeks have been a battle with Mother Nature. We have several open projects, but the mud is our enemy...and it has been winning recently. It can't stay wet forever, so we wait... Since our projects are momentarily on hold, we took some time to start working on the design for our home show booth. We will be in the Du quoin Home and Garden Show in February and the Williamson County Spring Home Expo about a month later. Although these pics don't lead it on, water will be a main element this year...

Five weeks ago we started a large water feature at John A. Logan College. We were rained out about as many days as we could work during that time, but the end is now in sight.

A recent project of ours included building a raised paver patio then finishing the back yard with landscaping and sod.

Below is a rendering for a project we will be starting in the spring of 2012. Construction of the home has been underway for a few weeks and will continue through the end of this year. This will be by far our greatest undertaking and I can't wait to get started! The design includes a large water feature incorporated into a custom swimming pool, natural stone paving and plenty of room for outdoor entertaining, all nestled into a French country themed landscape. A custom pergola and gas fire pit both sit atop a separate, circular patio overlooking the golf course and pond below. When this project is complete, the property will be transformed into an amazingly beautiful outdoor retreat our customers and their family will enjoy for many years to come.

We became invloved in this project at the very beginning. In fact, the design was completed before construction began.

We have spent a lot of time at Sun Valley apartments on the west side of Carbondale this year. We completely redesigned and reworked the existing landscaping on several units across the street and now we are working on the new phase of the development. Several more units are being built, so as soon as construction is complete on one phase, we get to work.

Several weeks ago we completed a project for the owners of Burke Dermatology. They will be opening their new location on Giant City Rd. in Carbondale in a few days so we stopped by to install a few large boulders and make sure all of the landscaping looks  great.

While we wait on granite counter tops to be installed at our previous outdoor kitchen project, we moved over to our next project...another outdoor kitchen! Gotta love summer time!

Our current project is a fun yet challenging one. We are building an outdoor kitchen, gas fire pit and a seat wall on an existing stamped concrete patio. All of the hardscape will be constructed with concrete block and then veneered with cultured stone.

This week we are working around a newly installed pool. We are installing a natural stone patio and walkway along with landscaping.

This was a quick, one day landscape installation.
