Below is a home we did in Mifflintown, Juniata County. This project was done in two phases. The first phase was to
basically use the loader and chainsaws to remove all the unwanted trees and under growth in the area. Once we
removed the brush and tress and hauled it out for proper wood recycling we re-leveled the area. This area as you can
tell by the pictures hasn't had to much sunlight for quite some years. We re-leveled the existing topsoil around the
selected trees that we felt were worth keeping to add to the end beauty of this area. Since the soil was saturated with
moisture we decided to let it set and dry out before we brought the rockaway in and prepared the soil for grass. Phase
two was us bring in the loader and rockaway and leveling and creating a new grass seed bed. We also used the loader
to cut out an area for a new playground swing set for the kids. We also hauled in screened topsoil and filled in a few
low areas in their front yard and re-seeded them. We also used out power edger and cut a new edge around the
existing mulch beds. We then placed a geo-textile weed barrier down with hold down pins and top coated that with
triple ground brown hardwood bark mulch. We then strawed the entire work areas. The pictures truly don't give
justice as to the density of this area. This project added a lot more square footage to their property that was
otherwise useless.  This also gave their children a place to play in that was much cleaner and safer than  the old over
grown forest that was once there.

Below is a home we did in Lewistown, Mifflin County. We started the landscaping by removing the old overgrown
brush and shrubs. We then cut new mulch beds in using our power edger. We then laid down a geo-textile weed
barrier with hold down pins. We then planted new plants where desired and mulch the beds with new Dyed Black
Hardwood Bark Mulch. We then hauled in 2B sized river stone to increase the size of the rear patio area. We then
hauled in screened topsoil and and planted all the low areas in the yard with a Metro blend of grass seed. This project
truly brought the this home from a average landscape to a professional looking landscape. Very good before and after
pictures.
Below is a home we did in Ferguson Valley, Mifflin County.  This area was a big problem for maintenance issues.
We cut a clean edge in at the top of the bank area and then hand dug out the lower bank area and picked up and
installed 6" x 6" ACQ treated timbers. We then placed a geo-textile fabric down using hold down pins. The
timbers acted as a great border for the # 3 mixed sandstone that we hauled in and placed in the area on top of
the geo-textile fabric. We along with the customer picked out the plants that would be the least maintence
lowest growing plants available for this area. This really makes the area a nicer area to look at with very little
maintenance.

Here are two more after pictures of the
front of the home.
Below is a home we did in Garden View, Reedsville. For this project we installed a new white custom cut vinyl
porch railing on the front and rear concrete porch slabs. The material for the project was purchased from our
supplier Fences and More in Mifflintown, PA. This job turned out great and really set the this out apart from the
other ones in the neighbor hood that are very similar in design.

Below is a home we did in Lewistown, Mifflin County. We started the landscaping by removing the old overgrown
brush and shrubs. We then cut the lower branches on the spruce tree to help open the home up. We then hauled the
brush out for proper wood recycling. We then hauled in screened topsoil and re-leveled the work area out using the
screened topsoil. We then planted the work areas with a Metro blend of grass seed and strawed the entire work area.
This project really opened up the home and brought it back to a more controlled landscaping look.
