Quarterly Maintenance-Grayson, GA

This house in Grayson needs some work-they have gotten behind with the pruning and weeding mostly. We decided that, instead of a major cleanup, we would concentrate on specific areas of the house for the first 3 quarterly maintenance visits. I started with the front of the house and got everything pruned, some dead shrubs removed, and the weeds in the beds under control.and

Big Canoe Completed

Had a good time working with my son up in Big Canoe...timber retaining wall turned out nicely as did the front planting of Creeping Plum Yew (chosen because it's a neat plant and virtually deer-proof..Big Canoe is a wildlife sanctuary and the deer can be landscape pests...we saw no deer during the days but did see a couple of turkeys this afternoon.)

Big Canoe 7/23

Got started on demolition of a crosstie wall-intallation of a pressure treated timber wall and some clean-up and planting up at Big Canoe. Great place to work-5 degrees cooler and a great view!

Dunwoody Sod Prep

This is the same Dunwoody project I did a dry creek bed/drainage solution for last month. Installing about 2500' of Emerald Zoysia sod tomorrow..the prep work has consisted mainly of filling and leveling. The old yard had some uncomfortable slopes and a lot of exposed roots. The old turf/weeds were sprayed with herbicide well in advance of the photographed work below. On Monday we brought in 15 yards of red clay fill to cover the roots and help level the yard to more a more usable grade. Today we brought in 8 yards of topsoil (bottom pic) for the final grading.

Oakhurst Completed

Just posting photos for now-when I get a little more time I will add some explantations to go with them!
