Mendham, NJ. Replacing an Old Deck with a New Raised Stone Patio

New Raised Stone Patio to replace an Old Deck, Mendham, NJ At Earth, Turf & Blooms, we specialize in beautifying, practical outdoor sanctuaries. This recent example from Mendham, NJ highlights our commitment to quality design as it features the demo of a rotting porched deck being replaced with a brand new raised stone patio. We started the with an in-depth site analysis to determine the needs of the client, both functional and aesthetic, and conceptualized a new floor that was easy to maintain and more pleasing to the eye. Although the weathered and worn old deck was not appealing, it was also a safety issue. Our team carefully removed and demolished the existing building with as little impact to the surrounding land as possible. We opted for high-end natural stone pavers that complement the Architectural style of the home as well as the greenery on the property for the newly raised stone patio. These materials add to the overall appearance while also withstanding the elements for years to come. The pavers placed by our craftsmen in an interesting pattern create an aesthetic whilst allowing the rain to run-off instead of pooling. This posed a particular challenge for us, as the level of the patio is higher than the level of the adjoining garden. To combat this, we engineered retainer walls with stone that tied into the existing stonework; propping up the raised structure as well as adding further depth and texture to the landscape. The team worked for hours to ensure that the walls were integrated into the landscape and planted accordingly to allow the plantings on the walls to soften and grow into their surroundings. The end result is a beautiful raised stone patio that creates an inviting outdoor retreat great for hosting or a quiet moment away. The client, delighted with the results, said: The new patio really improves our home and we love the experience of outdoor with this new look.
