The clients are looking for an enclosed courtyard and new steps to the front door.

The existing concrete steps are seriously deteriorating.

A little jackhammering takes care of the steps.

The base for the patio is laid while the new granite landing arrives.

The new step and landing dress up the entry.

The bluetone patio is complete. Bluestone flagging curves through the lawn to the side door.

A white picket fence will enclose the space.

The finished courtyard includes perennial beds and a fountain.
