What happens here
The final stage involves completing the surrounding landscape to enhance the aesthetic appeal and ensure proper drainage away from the patio and pool. This includes grading the soil adjacent to the patio, adding fresh topsoil, and applying a layer of mulch for neatness and moisture retention. Decorative elements such as large rocks, boulders, and various plants (shrubs, flowers) are strategically placed to complement the patio and fire pit, creating a cohesive and inviting outdoor living area.
Goal: Complete the surrounding landscape and ensure proper drainage.
