Landscape and hardscape in Cumming, GA
United Landscapes is based in Cumming, so Forsyth County jobs are close to home. We build patios, retaining walls, fire pits, decks and covered patios across the county.
Yards in Cumming
The slope and the soil decide a lot.
Many lots here slope toward a creek or toward Lake Lanier, and the red clay holds water. We plan the base and the drainage for that before anything is built.
Most lots here have some slope and heavy red clay that holds water. We look at both before we draw anything, because they decide how a patio is based and how a wall is built.

A wall or a set of terraces is often the way to make flat space. We measure the grade on the site visit.
