One project in Cypress California offered TRU Landscape Services a clean slate to remodel an entire backyard. In summary, we filled in a pool, installed a fire pit, and bordered the new lawn with block walls, lighting and plants to line the fence. Find out how the homeowners decided to take these drastic steps to reclaim their outdoor space!

Cypress Landscape Company

TRU Landscape Services works in Cypress California as a landscape company on a regular basis. Our latest customer decided to have their backyard completely remodeled. The backyard had an old damaged swimming pool that was going to cost several thousand dollars to repair. On top of that, the family was not using the pool, and it was costing hundreds of dollars a month to keep it clean and filtered. After a discussion with TRU Landscape Services, they decided their best option was to fill in the pool and renovate the backyard. Our salesman had the estimate over the next day, and we began the project shortly afterward. Within a handful of days, our construction team had removed the old concrete and filled in the swimming pool. Now it was time to start the new landscape!

Orange County Fire Pit

Fire Pit and Block Wall with Stack Stone

Proper fire pit construction requires experience and certification and isn’t a project for the average do-it-yourself er. Installing a gas line, properly constructing, and adding a veneer to a fire pit takes the experience that we can provide. TRU Landscape Services installed the gas line to the future fire pit on the first day. On the second day of the backyard remodel, our hardscape crew started the fire pit installation along with the planter wall. The basic materials we use to build fire pits and planter walls are concrete blocks and rebar. After a couple of days, the crew had the entire structure of the fire pit and planter walls built. Once the structure was completed, we installed stack stone on the sides of the wall to give an elegant and finished look. A basic fire pit only has stucco on the side, but there are several options for stack stone and other products that we can install to spruce up a wall or fire pit. Installation of complementary veneers can tie together your entire outdoor design! Our customer chose a panel stack stone from a local supplier. This part of the process takes a true professional. When the last touches to the stack stone siding were finished, the customer was extremely happy with their new outdoor fire pit.

Block Walls Orange County

Stacked Stone Block Walls and LED Lighting

TRU Landscape Services takes pride in building block walls that will last. Over the last 20 years we have built several hundred block walls throughout Orange County. Our builders construct with attention to quality craftsmanship and use the best materials to build a solid wall. All of our planter walls and retaining walls are filled completely with concrete whereas other companies in Orange County may only fill up every other block. This compromises the structural integrity of the install. Another factor that sets TRU Landscape Services apart is that we use the right size rebar on every wall we build; never too small. We also build most of our footings bigger then what is needed because everything starts with a good foundation. All of these factors add up to an excellently constructed and long lasting block wall.

Orange County LED Lighting

TRU Landscape Services installs the best LED lighting products made in America. Although LED lights made outside of America may be cheaper in price, there are many benefits to using quality American LEDs. Cheaper lights don’t have a long warranty from the manufacturer like American lights. Most of these cheaper lights are made overseas and most of the companies don’t stay in business for very long. A warranty is important because most LED lights don’t actually burn out, they just go dim. If cheap LED lights without a warranty have problems, good luck finding a person to fix them.

Backyard Remodeled

The company that supplies TRU Landscape Services’ lights has been in business for the past 20 years in California. The LED lights we install only use 20 % of the electricity that a conventional halogen bulb consumes. The energy efficiency of these bulbs equals huge savings for our customers! The lights are predicted to last up to 14 years. They come with a 10 year manufacture warranty. The lights have a beautiful white color to them that accents any outdoor space.  We can also provide custom lights in different sizes depending on your landscaping needs.
