Installing Low Maintenance Landscaping to Beautify a Backyard Pool

Nothing spoils a relaxing day at the pool quite like an unsightly, weed-infested yard. This was exactly the problem our clients were facing. Every time it rained, their yard turned into a muddy mess. The narrow strips of grass were not only difficult to mow, but also became a breeding ground for weeds. They needed a solution that was aesthetically pleasing, easy to maintain, and resilient to the local weather.

At Flores Landscape, we believe in turning challenges into opportunities. Our mission? To transform this problematic yard into a beautiful, low-maintenance oasis.

Our first step was to tackle the unruly grass and persistent weeds. Instead of resorting to chemical pesticides, we opted for a more eco-friendly approach - weather-resistant sheeting. By covering the yard with this sheeting, we were able to kill off the grass and prevent weeds from growing back, all without harming the surrounding environment.

With the weeds and grass out of the way, we moved on to the next phase of the transformation - the hardscaping. Pebbles are a popular choice for hardscaping due to their natural beauty and durability. We spread these pebbles across the yard, taking care to create sharp, meticulous borders around the pool. This not only enhanced the look of the pool area but also provided a clear demarcation between the pool and the rest of the yard.

The result was a stunning transformation. A once troublesome, high-maintenance yard was now a beautiful, easy-to-care-for space. The pebble hardscaping added a touch of elegance to the pool area, creating a serene setting perfect for relaxation.

No longer do the homeowners have to worry about mowing or dealing with weeds. Now, they can simply lounge by the pool and enjoy the beauty of their backyard. This project is a testament to the power of thoughtful landscaping - with the right approach, even the most problematic yard can become a beautiful, low-maintenance oasis.
