Started work on this property on Wednesday with a clean up of the front yard berm/island. A lot of ivy removal from trees, removal of weeds and saplings...removed a fairly large dead Dogwood tree. I am starting on a landscape plan for the back yard, and will be back out later this month to create a dry creek bed to handle surface water rushing from the front yard to the creek at the rear of the back yard (bottom photo),

Low Timber Planter in Suwanee
This was the last bit of what has been a fairly large project in Suwanee-Settles Point. Son and I built this low planter with pressure treated 6" x 6" timbers around 2 existing Crape Myrtles. It should serve to divert some of the water coming from the neighbor's yard towards a catch basin that was also installed today.

Duluth-Peachtree Bluff..Phase 1 Completed
Lots of photos-lot of things going on at this job. 3 tons of medium river slicks (stones) were used to create a dry creek bed that begins in the neighbor's yard..goes under a fence..crosses the back corner of the property then underneath another fence until it reaches the drainage area beyond. 2 catch basins were installed at the back corners of the house to catch water coming from the front yard & drive..6' corrugated drain lines were then run from the catch basins (140' total) underneath the fence to the drainage area. Finally-soil was added underneath the deck and along the back of the house which involved taking up the existing plants then replanting..and some little stone wells were built to keep the soil off the deck supports.

Duluth-Peachtree Bluff
Started this job last Friday with Chris helping me dig the trenches for the 6" drain lines I am installing. The guys from Atlanta Landscape Materials showed up bright and early this morning with the 6" pipe, soil mix that will be used for correcting some grade issues in some beds, and 3 tons of river slick stones for use in some drainage areas and a dry creek bed. Had a pretty good day..got catch basins and a lot of the pipe in..created a nice well around one catch basin and covered it with jute mat, then stone.
