Enjoy the Evening in Kirtland Hills with a Fire Pit
The warm light of a fire pit creates the perfect ambience to relax and enjoy time with friends. We use durable materials to create a safe fire pit that fits in with your patio, walkways, and other hardscaping. Some common materials include:
- Granite: One of our most popular choices, granite is available in a variety of colors and patterns for maximum customization.
- Sandstone: For a more rustic space, sandstone is a great choice. Vibrant red, rich brown, and other earth tones create a natural design.
- Limestone: Outdoor spaces with a traditional design often utilize limestone. The variety of textures and colors provide almost endless customization options.
- Flagstone: Often used in building patios and walkways, flagstone is a great choice for creating a consistent design for all of your hardscapes. It comes in various colors and is easily cut into irregular shapes to create unique fire pit designs.
Control Erosion With a Retaining Wall
Retaining walls serve a practical purpose while adding extra visual interest to your property. Erosion is a common concern for sloped areas, preventing you from installing landscaping or other outdoor decorations. A retaining wall creates a flat, sturdy surface that won’t erode in times of heavy rainfall.
Durable stone used in retaining walls holds up over time with minimal maintenance needs. You can choose a stone that matches the color and style of your existing hardscapes.
Boulder Walls
For a more rugged look, consider a boulder wall. Each boulder is a unique shape and size, creating a natural, pastoral appearance while offering the benefits of a traditional retaining wall. A boulder wall helps control erosion and contributes to structural stability. The weight of the boulders will hold soil in place without cracking or shifting.
Benefits of Professional Grading and Excavating
Grading and excavating prepare your property for construction or landscaping. You can choose to schedule one or both services. Some benefits of grading and excavating include
Improved Drainage
Proper grading directs water away from buildings, preventing foundation damage, basement flooding, and soil erosion. It also reduces standing water that can lead to mosquito problems and landscape damage.
Better Landscape Health
Correct grading helps plant roots receive the right amount of water, promoting healthier growth and reducing the risk of root rot or drought stress. This is particularly important for Cleveland's diverse plant life, from shade trees to ornamental gardens.
Structural Protection
By directing water away from buildings, proper grading helps protect your home or business from costly water damage and structural issues. This is especially critical during Ohio's freeze-thaw cycles, which can result in foundation problems if water isn't properly managed.
Efficient Construction Preparation
Proper excavation lays the groundwork for smooth, efficient construction projects, potentially saving time and money in the long run. Our precise work can reduce the need for additional fill or removal during construction.
Erosion Control
Strategic grading can help control soil erosion, preserving your landscape and preventing sediment runoff into local water systems. This is particularly important for properties near Lake Erie or local streams.
Testimonials
We have been working with Dom and his crew for over a year. They’ve done an amazing job maintaining our lawn and beds – they take care of it like its their own! I love that we don’t have to think about it. In addition to that they did a full back yard renovation for us this spring. From conception to completion it was a great process. He took care of the full approval process in our town, and the work has been high quality. We are so excited for our new backyard! Dom is an incredibly hard worker. He takes pride in everything he does, and his work ethic is unmatched. I can also say the same about his crew.
