Backyard patios are an easy way to expand your living space and diversify your options for entertaining. Whether a flagstone patio extends gently through the grass from your back door, or a paver patio levels a formerly unusable area, we can turn an everyday backyard into a unique place to congregate beneath the Ohio sky. Picking the right patio design starts with your vision. From concepts to consultations with scale-drawings, your ideas will be complemented by true specialists-Landscapes By Terra has designed hundreds of patios and watched them age over decades.

Garden landscape design is an essential part of any home. Done right, you'll be surrounded by vivid colors in each season, and the plant selection will contribute to the long-term health of the property as a whole. Take advantage of striking yet functional landscape options that prevent erosion and naturally repel ticks, mosquitos and other pests. Whether you are trying to select the perfect plantscape for a large renovation, or you are looking to add a dash of seasonal color, our design team is ready to craft a vibrant and original garden landscape design that will only gain in beauty as it matures.

When the ground on your property is not draining properly, something has to be done before disaster strikes. While we are proud of all the beautiful work we do for our clients, some of the most important hours we spend each year are helping homeowners manage the water on their property with dry river beds, French drains and other landscape drainage systems. We've surveyed many residences around Columbus over the years. We know the ground. We enjoy coming up with drainage solutions for people because it is not easy.

Winter in Ohio can be beautiful, but the snow doesn't shovel itself. During the coldest months, our crews work hard to remove snow from walkways, driveways, parking lots, and roads. With more than 22 inches of snow falling on Columbus during an average year, snow removal must be part of every property owner's strategy to maintain safe access for themselves, employees and guests. Because we do not overbook, you can depend on our snow removal crews to arrive when promised. Our personalized service contracts will give you peace of mind during long storms.

The sun leaves with the beauty it brings. Be deliberate with the light you cast and reveal your space in its proper terms. Feature the aspects you adore and see the constellation of your property defined at night by efficient LED or solar landscape lighting. Exterior lights also increase the amount of space you can use at night, and features like driveway lights and outdoor floods come with significant safety and security benefits. Outdoor pathway lighting welcomes guests and guides those who have to watch their step.

Outdoor kitchens make a stunning addition to any home. They offer extra living room with a starlit ceiling and the relaxed option to grill steaks any time of year. Having a kitchen outdoors is extremely convenient-no more shuttling back and forth-and provides an unrivaled setting for entertaining at home. Modular outdoor kitchens allow you to tailor the space to your needs. We have experience installing a range of cabinets, appliances, and other features in order to execute unique outdoor dining options.

Landscape retaining walls are excellent solutions for both structural and aesthetic design challenges. If you have significant grade change on your property, retaining walls will create and preserve level areas. By increasing the functional space and preventing soil erosion, you will add lasting value to your home. In addition to shaping and protecting your land, retaining walls may be used to augment other features in the overall design. In conjunction with gardens and patios, sitting walls convert impractical or humdrum spaces into a natural gathering points.

At Landscapes by Terra, we have honed our relationship management over the course of 27 years. Tastes and technology in landscape design are always changing. We've baked into our method the means to adapt with the times and handle unforeseen dilemmas. The individual needs and circumstances of your project will take on a unique shape, but below you will find the milestones that will comprise the general trajectory of your project. After you reach out, we'll send one of our designers to walk through your property with you.

Landscape design with a goal of reducing noise pollution often includes water features like garden fountains, ponds, and waterfalls. The soothing sounds of running water filter out noise from traffic and the road, creating a natural sonic separation from the everyday world. An effective water feature need not take up much space. Backyard waterfalls, pond fountains, and other garden water features complement small spaces as well as they accent estates. Contrary to what you might think, most do not guzzle water or require much upkeep.

Winter in Ohio leaves its mark on properties. Keeping them in spectacular shape is a lot easier after a spring clean-up carried out by professional landscapers. During the service, our employees will be attuned to potential issues. Take care of the crabgrass before it's an issue, and make sure drains are functioning before the first big storm of the season. Preparing your property for winter in Ohio is as sensible as bringing a jacket when it gets cold. Landscapes by Terra has been doing fall clean-ups in the Columbus area for a few dozen years-we know how to get it done right.

There is no doubt that an outdoor firepit enhances the backyard experience-selecting the best fire feature for your particular backyard is the real question. Are you looking to incorporate the fire pit with a patio or deck? Should it be raised or sunk, stone or metal, wood, gas or propane fueled? Do you go with a firepit, fireplace, or fire table? What is a fire bowl? We'll help you navigate all of the options to arrive on installation day with a safe and dependable fire feature that will help you make the most out of your outdoor space year-round.

Front walkways enhance a home's first impression. They're your invitation to guests and the neighborhood. What kind of statement are you looking to make? A thoughtfully designed walkway brings many functional benefits along with a measurable increase in curb appeal. For those concerned about sure footing, we can plan walkway landscaping for any weather. In private, walkways maximize your outdoor living space by joining your amenities and improving the access from your home. It might be a paver walkway with a built in bench that connects your house to the garage, or a lit garden pathway that escorts you during clean-up after the guests have wistfully departed your beautiful yard.
