AJ's Insight We LOVE Pavers!!! Typically a top choice for driveways, walkways, and patios, pavers have high visual appeal while providing a long-lasting, beautiful hardscape solution.... On top of complementing a wide variety of architectural styles and outdoor themes, they also happen to be slip-resistant and skid-resistant. Surprisingly, for all their benefits, they are also quite low maintenance compared to other hardscape options. Durable and easy to replace, concrete pavers are made to last. Manufactured under consistent, ideal conditions, pavers are significantly stronger than concrete. Pavers typically have a pounds per square Inch (or PSI) of 8000, compared to concrete which has a PSI of 4000. When installed properly, pavers are tightly fitted, individually placed over a sand bed and a compacted aggregate base with a moisture barrier. Polymeric Sand (or more commonly known as Polysand) is used to ‘fill’ in the space between each paver, then watered down to activate the glue and bond the sand to seal and harden. AJ’s recommends reapplying or filling in Polysand every 1 to 3 years to continue to prevent washout, cracks, and the formation of weeds and grass between paving stones. This also helps to prevent water seeping in and compromising the integrity of the base. Since each piece is individually placed, should any movement and shifting occur over time, the affected pavers can be removed, corrections made and reinstalled without the entire patio having to be removed. Should a paver crack, they can be replaced without patches or awkward lines. Overall, pavers are amazingly easy to care for and maintain. Ensure the installer is a trained professional! To ensure AJ’s is providing our clients with the best workmanship and quality possible, our team has completed several training courses through the Interlocking Concrete Pavement Institute (ICPI) in addition to other manufacturer courses. Here are a few examples of the different paver applications installed by AJ’s Landscaping through the years! #AJsInsights #Pavers #Professional #Beautiful #LowMaintenance #LongLasting #UniquePatterns #CustomBuiltYards #CallUsTodayForAQuote #YourOutdoorLivingContractor #BBQIsland #Firepit #FrontWalkWay #Steps #DesignandInstall AJsLandscaping.biz 925.382.2139

AJ's Insight Let’s talk Succulents! From plant walls to decorative pots, succulents can provide a diverse, exotic addition to your outdoor space. No matter the application, a plant design with a well thought out irrigation system is critical in getting succulents to grow year around.... Determining how (and where) to incorporate them into your yard needs some thought. Succulents can be planted in many ways, including vertically! Plant walls provide an eye-catching display. These types of installations give room for creativity by varying and placing the succulents into different patterns that grow together to create living masterpieces. This type of application also works well when hiding undesirable fencing and can be installed indoors or outdoors. Check out this succulent wall AJ’s installed earlier this year. With each plant being carefully placed, this living art will grow in overtime and display an intricate design. Decorative pots are another way to display succulents. We use this type of application when an area of the hardscape needs some greenery or softening up. The planting shown was one of several as a part of the backyard installation completed in 2019. Succulents, like all living things, need more or less water depending on the time of year. Having a professionally installed irrigation system, customized to needs of the installed softscape is crucial. Specifically, for plant walls, succulents are placed in pockets and irrigation emitters are placed at the top to allow for ‘gravity fed’ watering to maintain proper moisture. Potted plants are a bit simplistic as a few drip emitters will do the trick. If your decorative pot is being installed over hardscape (pavers, concrete, tile), AJ’s recommend installing a drain under the pot to allow the excess water to escape so the plant roots do not rot. Whether it is succulents or any other type of design elements for your outdoor living space design, AJ’s Landscaping designs with the details in mind. Stay tuned for updated photos of this plant wall display! #AJsLandscaping #AJsInsights #WOWFactor #LocalContractor #SucculentWall

AJ’s Insight Creating the WOW Factor! When planning your outdoor living space, consider the value outdoor lighting can add to the functionality, ambience and usability of your new backyard, no matter the time of day. ... Creating the right lighting plan for your design is a great way to achieve that WOW factor. Lighting is not only for safety and security. It also draws your attention to focal points such as a custom-built water feature, showcases the details of steps leading to your raised patio and reflects your personality. Walking the yard, identifying where you gravitate most, and recognizing your favorite parts of your outdoor space will help set you in the right direction of where lighting is needed. Ambient lighting by the fireplace, functionality for an outdoor kitchen work surface or string lights over your Bocce Court are a few entertaining areas that come to mind. From dramatic lighting with color options to dimmable features, finding the right combination will give optimal enjoyment of your new Outdoor Living Space. What would you love to showcase in Your Backyard? AJ’s Landscaping designs with the details in mind!

Our story is a bit different from the rest, but that's how I know my company will stand the test of time (and viruses). Many consumers do not realize how long a yard install or remodel may actually take. It is important to get along with and feel comfortable with the contractor selected. That's why this article was important for me to share with you. This is a glimpse into my life and how much my way of life is connected to what I provide for my clients. Click here ... to read the Full article! https://ajslandscaping.biz/lots-of-land-to-roam-call-home- Quote from Chirs Jehs himself - "AJ’s foundation is based on trust. I don’t expect my customers to work with me if they do not trust me, and I do not work with vendors or have employees that I can’t endorse. For me, trust includes being honest and doing the right thing. This is a big deal to me. I want to ensure that if I am promising something, it’s going to be delivered as expected regarding outcome and timing. I pride myself on being a great listener and when you listen well enough, people are going to tell you exactly what they want. I am willing to be unique and create something totally out of the box and one of a kind." #AJsLandscaping #BusinessArticle #LotsofLandtoRoamandCallHome #LandtoLiveOn #LandtoWorkOn #LandtoEnjoy #Trustworthy #Honest #Prideful #ClientsareMOSTimportant #Unique #AmazingLandscaping #EndlessOppurtunities #110Magazine #ThankYou #2020 #Article
