Call us for more information about why we like Stone Mountain or to know who we are going to see there in April. Tony can be reached at 978.317.9875.

My two Bernese Mountain Dogs finally get to enjoy some snow. They are having a blast in today’s snow covered landscape. Hope the snow stays light so that there is no damage to any plants.

Prior to incurring significant winter damage to their old trees, we removed several tall trees that were near this North Andover family’s home. All of the trees were moved by crane so that the shrubs and lawn was not damaged. This section of tree was over 30′ tall and was moved directly over the house. If you would like any difficult trees removed, please call Artistic Landscapes at 978.317.9875. More information about landscaping and tree pruning in the Andover, Georgetown, Lynnfield and North Andover areas can be found at www.Artistic-Landscapes.com.

Thank you for a terrific 2011. We completed all of our 2011 projects and prepared plants for winter. I believe this was the first year that the weather has allowed us to work into January. Thank you to Connor, Jay & Will for all of your time and help in 2011. Thank you to all of our clients for giving us the opportunity to work on such interesting projects and challenging us to be the best. We will begin updating our website, www.Artistic-Landscapes.com with some pictures from the 2011 projects.

This North Andover family wanted new steps for the front of their house. We recommended Caledonia granite as the color of the Caledonia granite works very well with their color palette and the sturdiness of granite will achieve longetivity that the prior steps did not. Because the old steps had different heights (some steps were 7″, others 8″ and the step into the house was 5″), we removed the base of the steps as well as the steps prior to reconstruction. We recommend installing a quality base, rather than ‘hoping’ the existing base will be strong enough to support the new steps.

We thank all of you who have helped make this a great year. We have been fortunate to have been selected for so many interesting and challenging projects this year. But, today we are taking the day off and enjoying Thanksgiving with our families. We will begin building a natural fieldstone retaining wall tomorrow.

The purpose of these landscape lights is to provide the appropriate level of visibility to the steps that connect the deck to the patio. We ‘hid’ two of the lights under the client’s benches that wrap around the deck and installed two path lights directly into the patio, at the same time that we built the patio. By combining these lights, we are able to cast light over the entire width of the steps.

Artistic Landscapes designed this natural stone firepit to have an opening in the ‘front’ to allow for better visibility of the fire. Based on the location of the patios and the expected seating arrangements, nearly 100% of people will be sitting facing the open side of the firepit. The steps to this patio were built from reclaimed granite, thus we installed a piece of reclaimed granite as the front threshold of this firepit.
