Just wrapping up this dry laid flagstone patio and Pondless waterfall.
This is a pretty custom job so has taken us a couple months to complete.
Still need to install some plants, mulch and do the aquatic and landscape lighting.
But it’s looking good so far!!

Here’s the patio going in.
We used Tennessee Crab orchard stone for this flagstone patio
We use a free draining gravel base for all our patios.
This allows great compaction and drainage.
Here’s the end result!
Came out great!
We custom cut all the stone to fit tight together with minimal gaps.
Then on to the waterfall.
This is a Pondless waterfall.
Which means, we install a basin of water underground to hold the volume of water needed to run the water feature.
Pondless waterfalls are less maintenance and usually less expensive then installing a pond.
Here’s what the property looked like before we started.
Then we started setting large boulders to create a beautiful waterfall.
We use an Epdm rubber liner to contain the water.
Tennessee fieldstone was the clients choice for stone in this feature.
So we hand picked all the boulders to create a naturalistic water feature.
It’s can be a tedious process creating a custom Pondless waterfall.
But the results are amazing!
Almost done here, just need the plants and mulch!
Check back later for the finished project!

Today I took a walk with my daughter into the woods to relax, enjoy each other’s company and get into nature.
We ended up balancing some rocks at a popular swimming hole.
It was an amazing time. Taking a day off of work to spend some important time with my daughter.
We started off picking some wild blueberries. Then strolling down to the river, we ate some lunch and enjoyed the waterfalls.
It was a great time. Balancing stone is an amazing meditation and relaxing art form.
When we finished we discussed if we should knock them down or not. We decided to leave them up. Then we hiked up to the top of the waterfall and as we looked down on our rock balancing we saw people hiking in and taking pictures of our work. Then we noticed people engaging with what we did. Some tried to balance their own rocks, one guy balanced a rock on top of ours. It was a beautiful thing.
We just finished a dry laid flagstone patio in Asheville, nc.
Dry laid stone work is done without the use of concrete or mortar.
The strength of the patio relies on a well drained base of gravel and tightly cut large pieces of stone.
Each piece of stone is hand cut to fit tightly and to create a structural and attractive pattern.
We also installed a bench wall at the edge of the patio. This wall supports the lower edge of the patio and adds a place to relax and enjoy the backyard.
Dry laid stone work will last for decades if installed correctly.
