Big change for little $

A casual lakeside patio and fire pit.  

A natural stone staircase leading to a lower level back yard.

Here are a couple projects that Apex Landscape was able to make a big impact on a small space for not a whole lot of cash.  Sometimes just a small landscape renovation or an addition to an existing landscape can make all the difference.  These two projects both had a need and we were able to address the need in about a day for a small investment from the homeowners.

Before and after sustainable pool project.

Yes, that is artificial turf!

This was a great project to work on and thank you to our wonderful clients for allowing it to become a reality.  We created a small, fun splash pool that can be used throughout the year or just in the summer months.  We also used a synthetic turf for the lawn area giving the client a "green" alternative that can be used as a sun bathing area or a place to play a quick game of badminton.  We made sure to use materials that matched the existing structure to keep a cohesive feel.  It is always our goal to create beautiful spaces that are well thought out, functional, sustainable, proportionate and what the client dreamt of.  In this case we had a very happy client and a great result!  If you want Apex Landscape to create your dream outdoor living space contact us today!  616-822-4587

Aggregates in the Landscape

Don't be afraid to use aggregates in your landscape. They are often underused and can be a nice addition if used correctly. Contact Apex Landscape today to find out how to add some style to your landscape with aggregates.

Freshen up your landscape

Freshening up your landscape or giving it a new feel doesn't always have to be about a complete renovation.  It can sometimes be done by simply adding some great containers, an element of water or fire, or by placing shade structure the right place.  You can transform your front entrance with a couple great containers with some really well done arrangements or topiaries in them.  It can be impactful and affordable.  You can also transform your outdoor living space with some fire torches or a water feature.   A custom spa is a great way to give an old space new life.  A new patio surface or a shade structure are also great ways to transform a space.  The beauty about Apex is we strive to give you unique options.  There are many cool and creative ways to add to your outdoor space.  Contact Apex Landscape today to see what a great solution for your home is!
