Improving Curb Appeal
With A Full Front Yard Upgrade

The existing front yard lacked visual structure, clean driveway definition, and low-maintenance landscaping. The goal was to create a more polished entry with durable pavers, artificial turf, and a rustic planter wall.

  • Replace the aging driveway surface with courtyard-style pavers.
  • Create a defined dark charcoal border around the driveway.
  • Add low-maintenance artificial turf for year-round curb appeal.
  • Build a rustic Angelus planter wall for structure and planting definition.
  • Improve the front yard layout, circulation, and arrival experience.

Existing Front Yard
Before Remodeling

Before construction, the driveway and front yard needed a full refresh with better hardscape, cleaner landscape definition, and stronger curb appeal.

Design Strategy

  • Use courtyard pavers to create a cleaner driveway surface.
  • Frame the driveway with a dark charcoal border.
  • Use turf and planter wall details to soften the hardscape.

Scope Of Work

Demolition & Site Preparation

Front Yard Remodel
In Progress

The work began with demolition, site preparation, excavation, grading, and layout coordination before the paver driveway and landscape features were installed.

Base Preparation

Compacted Base
For Driveway Performance

A properly compacted base supports the paver driveway under vehicle use and helps the finished surface stay aligned over time.

Paver Installation

Courtyard Pavers
With Charcoal Border

The driveway was finished with courtyard-style pavers and a dark charcoal border to create a stronger frame and a cleaner front yard composition.

Planter Wall Installation

Rustic Angelus
Planter Wall

The rustic planter wall added a finished landscape edge, created planting definition, and helped organize the new front yard layout.
