Grading and a Batting Cage – Mr. Outdoor Living Tip of the Day
A project involving Grading and a Batting Cage is the ultimate backyard upgrade for an athletic family. This team effort in Charlotte began with essential site preparation, including tree and stump removal. We then graded the land to create a level, well-drained area, installing a base of #67 stone and using boulders to retain the surrounding earth and prevent erosion. The final step was assisting with the installation of the low-maintenance artificial turf and batting cage, transforming the space into a professional-quality practice facility.
Water Features – Mr. Outdoor Living Tip of the Day
Water Features can completely transform the ambiance of a backyard, creating the soothing sounds of outdoor living. While some homeowners prefer the warmth of a fire pit, a custom water feature offers a unique sense of tranquility. From elegant bubbling rocks to naturalistic pondless waterfalls, installing these features requires a blend of precision, artistic workmanship, and teamwork. For the ultimate in luxury, combining fire and water elements creates a stunning focal point in any Charlotte landscape.

Outdoor Kitchen – Mr. Outdoor Living Tip of the Day
An Outdoor Kitchen is the ultimate backyard upgrade for homeowners in the Charlotte area, providing a perfect space to entertain guests and create a feast. Beyond the immediate joy and enhanced lifestyle a grilling station brings, the installation of a professionally constructed outdoor kitchen offers a high rate of return on your investment. Custom-built with durable materials, it’s a feature that not only creates lasting memories but also adds significant financial value when it comes time to sell your home.
Paver Patio Expansion – Mr. Outdoor Living Tip of the Day
A Paver Patio Expansion is the perfect solution for homeowners looking to enlarge a small, existing concrete slab. This method adds valuable square footage for outdoor living without the need for costly demolition. For this Hardscape project in Huntersville, NC, a new patio and connecting pathway were built using Belgard Savannah Cambridge Cobble pavers. The timeless look of the pavers, set in an elegant I-pattern, creates a seamless and beautiful transition from the old concrete to the spacious new outdoor living area.
Drainage Solutions – Mr. Outdoor Living Tip of the Day
Drainage Solutions often require a multi-faceted approach to effectively solve water problems. A complete system can include subsurface French drains to dry out soggy lawns, the strategic use of river rock instead of mulch in washout-prone areas, and catch basins to handle heavy surface flow. For major erosion issues, a custom-built dry creek bed provides a beautiful and functional channel for water. To enhance curb appeal, many Charlotte homeowners choose to upgrade their projects with decorative hardscape block curbing, adding a polished, professional finish.
