Landmark Landscapes

Low voltage lighting adds so much to the landscape environment. Lets face it, we all work, when do we have the time to enjoy our labors it's not during the evening. Lighting allows us to extend that window of enjoyment, there by making it worth every penny! Well what do you think. We gutted the pond and built an entirely new one. Tree's were added for shade and dimension. Plantings were changed to better fit the design and mood we were shooting for. Boulders and contours were added as a backbone to this landscape.

Here is our work in progress on the sunken grotto. Note how we took the bridge from reinforced steel, added 3″ of high tinsel strength concrete, and then ran our pavers right over the top. We have 4′ reinforced steel and concrete piers on all four corners of the bride as well. Don't want it to move! In the end, we will finish out this landscape using many of our customers initial plantings as we saved them when it proved beneficial. I will take some pictures in a year and show you the project filled out with colorful plantings.

Landmark Landscapes has considerable experience in hardscape design. To us, hardscape design is more than rock and mortar, It's the core of every landscape. It's the fundamental essence which ties the entire project together and adds character and functionality for years to come. This is why all of our hardscape design and installation projects begin with careful planning. We will meet with you to understand your vision. Then our designer will couple your vision with their experience to create an outstanding hardscape design that will not only greatly improve your homes curb appeal but increase its value.

We offer design and installation of low voltage outdoor lighting on all of our projects. In Nebraska, our seasons change. We feel the best way to get the most out of your landscape is to add outdoor lighting. Lets face it most of us work through the day, subsequently we only have so much time in our day to relax and enjoy our outdoor environment. Landscape lighting allows you to extend your viewing pleasure into the evening hours. It adds security and safety as well as aesthetics. It even helps fight off old man winter by adding warm lighting to the winter landscape.

Initially, they were thinking turf. In the end, a dry creek with landscaping to stabilize the bank became a more plausible answer. This dry creek bed handles hard rains, channeling excess water through both turf areas and landscaped sections. In this case, our customer had purchased a home and was left with some challenging problems. The prior home owner had built a wall that didn't fit into the new home owners game plan. We were commisioned to take out the old and bring in the new. The wall was failing in spots and re-building it with out having a source for additional stone to match, was not an option.

We have designed, installed, updated, and maintained numerous water features. This is perhaps the most complicated and misunderstood part of the landscape. We are artisans and engineers when it comes to water features. Customers are questioned to determine their level of interaction with the water feature. Materials are coordinated and scales are maintained to compliment your outdoor environment. We only offer the most updated and environmentally friendly pond equipment.
