Asheville Landscaping: Wolf Laurel Project

Here are some pics from our project in Wolf Laurel.
This was a fun project with lots of stone and a little water. One of my favorite projects this year.
The goal of this project was to create an entertainment area in the front yard of our clients house. We started off by installing a boulder retaining wall to support a flagstone patio. 


Both the wall and the patio came out great! 
We installed the patio using dry laid stone practices. This means there is no concrete or mortar in the construction. The patio stones are set on a bed of 3/4 inch compacted gravel with a screed of 3/8 inch crushed stone for leveling. This allows the patio to move a little when the ground freezes and thaws. The gravel under the patio also allows for great drainage. 


When we were designing the yard, we talked about adding a water feature of some sort. I suggested that we put a pondless waterfall flowing right into the patio, and our clients loved the idea. Adding water into your yard is a great way to create a welcoming feel to your landscape. The pondless waterfall is easy maintenance and adds a great value to your yard.
We also installed two stone stairways to access the patio and the front entryway. Both stairways were dry laid using large stone slabs. Difficult to install but beautiful as an end result.


We also installed a full low voltage LED landscape and aquatic lighting system into this project. 
This was avery fun project to work on and we are very thankful to our clients for letting us re-work their front yard for them.
