Landscape Design
Clarke Landscapes creates customized outdoor designs that blend functionality with aesthetic appeal. Our process involves detailed consultation to understand client preferences, site analysis, and 3D modeling to visualize the final outcome. We ensure every design maximizes usability while complementing the property's natural features.
Patios
We construct durable, visually striking patios using premium materials like natural stone and pavers. Our installations focus on proper drainage, structural integrity, and seamless integration with existing landscapes. Each patio is tailored to enhance outdoor living spaces for dining, relaxation, or entertainment.
Poolscapes
Our poolscapes combine water features with surrounding hardscapes for cohesive outdoor environments. We design and build pool decks, coping, and adjacent seating areas to ensure safety and aesthetic harmony. Projects emphasize low-maintenance materials and energy-efficient water systems.
Retaining Walls
We install retaining walls to manage terrain elevation and prevent erosion. Using interlocking blocks or natural stone, our walls provide structural support while enhancing curb appeal. Each project includes proper drainage solutions to ensure long-term stability and functionality.
Outdoor Lighting
Our low-voltage lighting systems enhance safety, security, and ambiance in outdoor spaces. We strategically place fixtures to highlight architectural features, pathways, and landscaping. Energy-efficient LED options ensure durability and reduced energy consumption for year-round illumination.

We couldn't be more pleased with our decision to go with Clarke Landscapes for our backyard renovation. Mather is truly an artist and will envision a perfect design for your area and his crews will turn it into a reality that will exceed your expectations. His guys are very professional and most have been working for Mather for 15+ years, so that should tell you something. If you're looking for high quality, this is it.

Words alone cannot convey just how much we LOVED working with Mather and his crew at Clarke Landscapes. From the very first meeting to the last, Mather and his team were nothing but professional, considerate, meticulous and hard working. They, along with Aqua Pools (equally awesome), transformed our space into the backyard of our dreams. From the hardscape to the pool to the built-in grill/beverage fridge to the firepitsometimes we get overwhelmed by how amazing it all turned out. Mather listened to what we wanted and came up with a brilliant design, then worked with us to make some minor changes

We had a wonderful experience with Mather at Clark landscapes when we installed our inground pool. Mather was one of many companies we had contacted to come take a look at the project and the the third one to visit us. We knew once we met him and heard his recommendations that is was not worth pursuing other quotes. Mather had great plans and designs for our space that no one else had thought of.
From the beginning, Mather and his employees were professional, respectful, on time, and hard working. We were amazed with the detail that was put into the patio and stone work, as well as the choices

We chose Clarke Landscapes for an outdoor patio and kitchen to complete our house project. Mather was very personable and attentive in listening to our thoughts and ideas. Upon our second meeting to discuss his drawings it was very evident how creative he is and the dedication to a unique yet functional design. Once our project started, he was always available for questions and or concerns. His team is very knowledgeable, personable and hard working. They were also very helpful in explaining how the project was taking shape. I would highly recommend Clarke Landscapes for any of your outdoor living

Thank you Clark Landscapes for transforming our backyard into an extended living space! From concept to completion, Mather and his team managed every aspect of the project, including paving materials, granite countertops and steps, appliances, fire pit design, excavation, fencing, electrical, lighting, landscaping and irrigation. Dave remained communicative every step of the way to manage our expectations of the projects progress, while the crew of Jim, Chuck and Scott were exceptional to work with. Mather created a space that had everything we were looking for, and with his expertise and attention
