Overview
This brick Colonial in Magnolia needed a fresh start. Patchy turf, tired shrubs, and washed-out beds made the entry feel cluttered. We delivered a front-yard reset: new sod, stone-edged planting beds, and a paver walkway that guides guests to the door while keeping shoes clean.
Challenges
- Compacted, thin turf struggling after rain and heat
- Overgrown shrubs blocking windows and sightlines
- Bed edges fading into the lawn; mulch washing onto the sidewalk
- A dated path that didn’t match the home’s style
Our Solution
- Selective Demo & Grading to correct low spots and set pitch away from the house
- Defined Bed Geometry with natural stone edging that locks mulch and creates clean curves
- Paver Walkway on a compacted base, sized for comfortable two-person entry
- Fresh Plant Palette: foundation shrubs + seasonal color sized below windows
- New Sod with soil prep for strong rooting and even color
- Clean Finish: premium mulch, precise turf transitions, tidy porch threshold
Materials
Compacted crushed-stone base • Bedding sand • Concrete/stone pavers • Natural stone edging • Premium mulch • Region-appropriate sod • Foundation shrubs and accents
Results
- Instant curb appeal with a uniform lawn
- Clear sightlines to windows and entry; plantings frame the architecture
- Lower maintenance: edging holds mulch, walkway stays clean, plants sized to reduce shearing
Maintenance Tips
- Water new sod deeply for 2–3 weeks, then shift to a regular schedule
- Keep mulch at 2–3″ and maintain a visible stone edge
- Light prune foundation shrubs after the main flush/bloom
