The new and improved front of our house (obviously a little cleanup needs to be done and grass planted once spring comes). The mud pile looking thing on the street is what's left of what was a massive snow bank:
Instead of an awkward cement wall that curves out into our driveway wasting room, we now have a wall flush with the house and stairs from the driveway onto the landing:
We think it turned out great and just loved the company that did it. It was truly one of the easiest, lowest drama renovation projects that we've had done on the house and it adds some serious curb appeal. So, if anyone in the area needs a landscaper, I would definitely recommend this company.
The completion did make a little addition to our hectic week back as we had to 1) coordinate final payment with the landscaper and 2) start the new project of getting estimates for railings. Hopefully our railings will be completed soon, weather permitting. I'll be sure to post more photos once the next phase is complete.
