Major Transformation Project: Retaining Wall, Patio, and Drainage for Mr. & Mrs. Veerman! š¤©š ļø We recently completed a comprehensive, custom project for Mr. & Mrs. Veerman that was all about structure, stability, and stunning outdoor design! This was a multi-phased project requiring the expertise of our Master Handcrafted Team. Phase 1: Foundation and Water Management A successful outdoor space starts beneath the surface. We focused heavily on preparation and protection: Demolition & Grading: We professionally removed and disposed of old dirt to achieve a level surface, ensuring the entire area was leveled and graded to enhance both appearance and functionality. Comprehensive Drainage System: To prevent water issues and protect the new construction, we installed a complete system, connecting existing downspout gutters to channel drainage and strategically placed catch basins around the patio area. Robust Concrete Foundation: Expert framing led to the pouring of a 4-inch deep, high PSI concrete slab to create a robust and lasting foundation for the entire retaining wall area. Phase 2: Handcrafted Structure and Style This phase brought in our masonry and carpentry artisans to build the defining elements of the new space: Custom Retaining Wall: Our master handcrafted team built a stunning, structural retaining wall. This involved careful framing, precise concrete work, and meticulous masonry construction with vertical supports every 3 feet for maximum stability. Client Involvement: Mr. & Mrs. Veerman played a key role in selecting the retainer wall fascia and stone materials, ensuring the final look perfectly matched their vision. Stamped Concrete Patio: We installed a beautiful stamped concrete patio. This decorative concrete work involved imprinting a pattern into the fresh concrete, giving them the high-end look of stone or brick with the durability of concrete. Walk Add-On: Extended the stamped concrete to include a new, seamless walk area. (Optional) Custom Garden Box: Constructed durable, raised garden boxes using 2"x12" boards and strong 4"x6" posts. Phase 3: Landscaping and Finishing Touches The final details bring the entire project to life, focusing on irrigation and planting: Sprinkler System Upgrade: To support their new landscaping, we upgraded their irrigation system by installing two new drip zones and a new control unit. Flower Beds: Integrated new flower beds along the retaining wall and patio, ready for planting. Decoration: Concluded the project with personalized decoration options to perfectly complement their beautiful, newly structured space. Thinking About a Multi-Layered Outdoor Project?
