Landscape Design
The beginning of a successful landscape starts at the drawing board. We provide a professional design which will allow you to visualize your landscape before construction begins. During a consultation an experienced designer will discuss your vision, needs, tastes and style while noting all site-specific conditions. From this, a plan can be drawn that is sure to include all the elements that you desire while keeping your entire family in mind.
Hardscape, Masonry & Outdoor Rooms
Landscape construction, or hardscaping, is one of our specialties. Outdoor fire places, fire pits, steps, retaining walls, boulder terraces, seating walls, and old-world masonry are all built to blend harmoniously with your property. Incorporating an outdoor kitchen, fireplace or fire pit with a wooden pergola helps give a feeling of enclosure with a connection to the outdoors, and therefore creates what we call an “outdoor room.” Our team is skilled in constructing all the amenities to make your yard your favorite room, 12 months of the year!
Planting - Softscapes
The team at Burkholder is skilled in the proper installation of healthy & colorful landscapes. All plant material is inspected to be in good health and form. Extensive soil preparation and amendments will support your plants with the proper amount of nutrients and moisture so they are sure to thrive.
Landscape Lighting
Landscape lighting not only illuminates walkways, entrances and driveways, lighting also adds a new dimension to your property. By uplighting, shadowing and spotlighting plants and architectural features, we bring your landscape investment alive at night! Our lighting systems are properly designed to assure safe, efficient and reliable operation.
Pools
At Burkholder, our education and experience applied during the design process results in an aesthetic masterpiece and an installation process that is enjoyable for our clients. A pool is no longer a concrete box in the ground. A swimming pool is just one of the elements in your families’ personal oasis. Our solution will take into account every aspect of the project which will be handled in house without relying on sub-contractors.
Ponds & Waterfeatures
Adding water to a landscape brings multiple benefits. The sound of a flowing waterfall will add tranquility to your peaceful retreat. The look of a meandering stream and the reflections in a pond will blend harmoniously with the landscape. A small fountain or bubbler can transform a smaller garden or patio. A pond can also host koi and plant life for your family to enjoy. Our design team will work with you to make the right choice; a pond with a waterfall, a standalone pond or a pondless waterfall are just a few of methods used to incorporate water into your landscape.
