As your exterior decorator, East Coast Landscape Design values your goals in your projects. These homeowners in Kensington, Maryland contacted us after we did a retaining wall job for them over 25 years ago, for which they were very happy.

They were tired of the concrete sidewalk and wanted an updated look. It was cracking in some sections and looked old. We removed the existing sidewalk and installed a brick paver walkway with steps. It used to be 3’ wide, but we usually make walkways 4’ standard, although we can make them wider when it makes sense.  The clients were extremely happy with the results in the winter. The stoop was veneered with flagstone due to the fact that pavers would have been too thick , so we blended the colors (grey) and they gelled together well.

AFTER

East Coast Landscape Design recently had a unique project involving transported material!

Our client moved from Oklahoma to Silver Spring, Maryland. He loved the Midwest limestone so much, he had it transported to his new east coast home!

From there, East Coast Landscape Design built a retaining wall with the limestone to solve a grading problem on the side of the house. Each limestone piece was custom cut and fitted! A level walkway to the back of the yard was also added, along with some new plants to dress it up a bit and soften the look.

Take a look at our photos from this project!

Landscaping needs to be updated to a contemporary look, just like interior decorating. Plus, landscaping grows and needs to be trimmed and sometimes replaced.

A challenging project for East Coast Landscape Design stemmed from a 35-year-old landscape at a home on Massachusetts Avenue in Washington, DC. The homeowners just moved into the house, and wanted an updated yard. More specifically, they were looking to increase curb appeal by making the yard look more professional and contemporary.

East Coast Landscape Design removed the entire front and side yard to meet the needs of the homeowners. By adding a retaining wall and putting a ground cover over the hill, they were able to present the homeowners with an updated landscape look for their new home in Northwest Washington, DC.
