Front Yard Landscaping Ideas

Planters can be constructed from a variety of materials such as wood, natural stone, or even paving stones.  The flexibility of what you can put in your planters is endless: a seasonal garden, shrubs, or even trees can be planted depending on the overall fit of your landscaping, and how much maintenance you wish to do.

A pathway is one of the first things to greet your guests when they arrive at your house. This is your first chance for a lasting first impression.  We are of course biased to building these from paving stones, this look will last for years to come. With the right combination of colors, you can achieve a dramatic look.

Well-chosen edging can frame off whatever it is you want to showcase.  Whether it’s a pathway, patio, or even turf – adding a contrast of colour will be sure to draw attention and add some functionality.  Adding some paving stone edging to a garden bed is always a popular and timeless classic.

Natural stones are popular for many reasons.  They can be used to create planters or retaining walls and be placed around the yard or in gardens for decorative purposes.  Natural stones are very heavy and are not easily moved once you set them, so plan your placement ahead of time.

It is not every day that you see a water feature in a front yard, but you remember when you see one.  Adding a waterfall or small water feature can be that show-stopping thing that makes your front yard stand out.  Not all front yards can support this feature, but don’t be so quick to rule it out.

Extend the use of your landscape and enjoy it well into the evening hours.  Adding some outdoor lighting can show off some of the landscape’s best assets. Illuminating trees, natural stones, or even paving stones, there are endless options. We can help you choose what’s best for your yard, depending on your features.
