Hardscaping After Pool Installation
Hardscaping is a type of landscaping that does not involve water-hungry plants. What better way to offset the carbon foot print created from installing a pool than installing landscape features that have little to know watering needs.
When used in a pool landscape design hardscaping typically includes elements that will not require much maintenance or things like leaves or sand that can soil the in-ground swimming pool.
Installing pet-friendly artificial turf around your pool coping can give the illusion of a grassy area and allow your pup a proper place to do his business but also helps counter the pool’s water usage. A hardscape design uses elements like slate tiles, paver stone, and landscape lighting elements to bring style and sophistication to the yard but ensuring the pool remains the star of the show.

Pool Retaining Wall Installation
Retaining walls give swimming pools more privacy, encourage dirt and debris from littering the pool, and give visual interest to yards if designed correctly. Decorative retaining walls can be built using a variety of materials including brick, pavers, marble, flagstone, limestone, and more. Contact us to request a design consultation with our pool landscapers.

Privacy Landscaping for Pool
Did you have a pool installed and then realize your neighbors can see straight into your pool from their house? So much for having a private pool! Don’t worry, we can help create more privacy by installing privacy vine panels, tall shrubs with dense foliage, and even tall garden walls to block the eyes peering down on you when you swim.
