PATIOS & PAVERS
Patios and Pavers are a popular way to accent items within your
landscape, signs, highlights, and focal points of interest around
your building. Scalora Landscape Services offers a variety of patios, pavers and
hardscapes which add visual appeal, and functionality to your
workplace.
One of the great things about pavers is that they
come in a variety of shapes, sizes and colors. This gives you
many different options for your design. The designers at Scalora
can design a paver area you have always dreamed about. How is
it done…
Once a design has been selected, excavation can
begin; an area for your project will be staked out. Sod will be
removed using a sod cutter to create the initial shape. Typically
we dig down seven inches. This is to allow for a four-inch base,
a layer of sand, and the pavers. Slopes are also considered for
proper drainage.
Next is the compaction of the base material. Crushed
limestone is typically used. A compactor is used to compact each
layer for an optimum base. The edge restraints and sand layer
is then added.
Setting of the pavers is a timely and accurate task
that our landscape crew prides themselves in. Extra care is taken
to ensure the utmost beauty. A compactor is run over the pavers.
This starts the process of locking everything in place. The compactor
is pressing the pavers down, evening out the tops of the pavers,
and forcing some of the sand up into joints from underneath. Next
we fill the joints with sand from above. And this is what makes
a patio incredibly strong.
After your paver project is complete you have
the option to seal the pavers. Sealing will bring out the colors
of the pavers and protect them from stain, but you will have to
reseal them every few years.
Accent driveways, courtyards, or parking lots with
a custom-designed hardscape solution to add curbside appeal to
your place of business.
ANNUAL FLOWER DISPLAYS
Annuals are plants that complete their life cycle
in one season. Annual flowers can be the burst of color and personality
that will enhance your home's landscape. Flowering trees and shrubs
provide short bursts of color while most annuals begin blooming
within a month of planting and flower until frost. There is a
wide range of colors, sizes and species adapted to either sun
or shade makes it possible to plant annual flowers almost anywhere.
Using annual flowers in a well-designed landscape
will play an important role in adding color and character. Annuals
require higher levels of both maintenance and water, so plant
annual beds in areas near water sources. Planting annuals randomly
throughout the landscape increases maintenance and lessens the
plants' aesthetic impact. Always be aware of surrounding or backdrop
colors to achieve a coordinated overall design. The best way to
set off annual flower colors and textures is to provide a simple
backdrop of green vegetation.
Annuals are a wonderful way to draw attention
to your building or home, or to provide visitors with a nice visual
and fragrant experience. The style of annual bed should be compatible
with the overall style of your landscape design. Before planting,
the physical characteristics of the site must be evaluated. Consider
the site's soil type, drainage and sun exposure. An annual plant
adapted to site conditions grows and flowers more vigorously and
has fewer pest problems. Trust our designer to suggest the colors
and textures that will enhance your landscape.
