Hardscapes

Tucked onto a rare double lot in Altoona, PA, this property has been transformed into a true oasis in the heart of the neighborhood. The homeowners came to us with a simple vision — refresh their outdoor spaces to create a warm, welcoming environment where they could relax, entertain friends, and enjoy retirement alongside their dogs.

Derek developed a layout that balances structure with charm, creating outdoor spaces that feel both purposeful and inviting. Just off the home, beautifully crafted pergolas now define a comfortable patio retreat, while thoughtfully designed walkways lead guests toward a cozy gazebo gathering space. Clean landscape edging throughout the property provides crisp lines and makes mowing and maintenance simple and efficient.

One of the most enchanting elements of the design is a meandering pathway that feels like a hidden garden escape. A flagstone walkway winds around the home, paired with Black Hills natural stone steps that add texture, character, and a timeless feel to the landscape.

At the front of their home, Dustin and his crew built a brand-new sidewalk and stoop create a polished, cohesive first impression that ties the entire property together. The unmistakable focal point, however, is the custom fish-scale patterned driveway — a one-of-a-kind feature that instantly catches the eye and sets this home apart on the block. Neighbors and visitors alike can’t help but admire its craftsmanship and unique design.

The finished space is more than just a landscape upgrade — it’s a complete outdoor living transformation. This Altoona property now offers the perfect blend of beauty, functionality, and personality, giving the homeowners a private retreat they can enjoy every day.
