Crafting Exquisite Outdoor Environments

 

Landscape Plantings

Landscape plantings tie all the elements of your site together.  Plants compliment the aesthetics of your surroundings and often times aid greatly in the function of a space and how it will be used and enjoyed.  The Blackford Co. knows its plant materials well; we take great pride in providing your property with dynamic color, balance and interests.  We often times use large stone outcropping, walls, and sculpture to compliment the plantings and add texture to your space.  Our gorgeous landscape are visually engaging and add value to your property!

Patios / Terraces

Patios and terraces are the backbone element for outdoor enjoyment.  The Blackford Co. designs are well integrated into the aesthetics of your property.  We design and install all types of patio surfaces.  Natural blue stone, and patterned blue stone is one of our favorites.  One new tend that is catching on is the European type gravel terraces.  This ornamental gravel terrace style is very cost effective and can be bordered by stone; it also compliments fire and water features quite well!

Water Features

Blackford Landscape Design water features are spectacular.  Whether the sight and sound be that of a trickle, falling rain, or the splash of a stream, the sound of water will take you away; let your mind wander, relax!  We work closely with our clients on water feature design and aesthetics.  We make sure we achieve the look and sound you desire. The possibilities are endless.  We build custom, pre-engineered and natural water features.  

Water is a beautiful natural element and adds great dynamics to any design!

Fire Features

Blackford Landscape Design fire features are an exciting amenity to have in your outdoor living area.  We design and install natural stone fire pits as well as pre-engineered gas fire pits.   The excitement of a blazing fire makes the out doors come alive spring, summer, fall and winter!

Swimming Pools

Blackford Landscape Design works closely with two of Ohio's top pool builders.  We create the overall pool design to compliment your home and setting.  We orchestrate all the elements of this new outdoor environment.  We make sure we provide everything you desire from this new space.  We make sure the pool, pool deck, the walls, the grade, the drainage, the lawn, the fence, the plantings, the waterfall and fire feature all work seamlessly together.  Our designed pool environments are well crafted, well planned outdoor living spaces that will stand the test of time!
