Landscaping in Clarkston, Michigan

Posted by landscapeartisan on June 2, 2010

We recently completed this landscape project in Clarkston, Michigan. We installed Unilock Brussels Block in Sandstone and Mahogany to complete a front porch/patio with seat wall and piers along with a walkway. We also installed a garden wall using Ohio Blue Stone.  We repaired the rear patio circle and walk. Amongst the plantings: Red Bud tree, Dogwoods, Shasta Daisy, Black-eyed Susan, Euonymus,  Hydrangea, Astilbe and Boxwood. We added a couple downspout drains  and did some other work. This project cost the homeowner less than $15,000 and the new hardscapes are warranteed for three years, the plants are warranteed for one year, and the Unilock products are warranteed for life.

Landscaping in Ferndale, Michigan

Posted by landscapeartisan on April 29, 2010

We recently completed the landscape rennovation of a backyard in Ferndale, Michigan.  We custom built a wood arbor, installed a brick paver patio approx. 120 sq feet using Unilock Brussels Block in Sandstone, and installed a Flagstone Path. 

The plantings included ‘Green Mountain’ Boxwood, Climbing Hydrangea, ‘All Summer Beauty’ Hydrangea, deciduous Azaleas, Myrtle, and assorted perennials. We also planted three ‘Cherokee Chief’ Dogwoods and a 7′ Hemlock. Natural Boulders were placed in the planting areas.

Landscaping in Oxford, Michigan

Posted by landscapeartisan on November 12, 2009

We built this beachfront retaining wall in Oxford, Michigan using pre-cast concrete block called Versa-Lock. We also installed Unilock Sienna Stone steps leading down to the beach. Unilock Sienna Stone is a pre-cast concrete product. We then installed a brick paver patio using the customer’s existing bricks, and all of these measures increased the customer’s savings on the entire project.

The homeowner designed and planted the flower bed themselves along the top of the wall.
