Water Features

There is nothing as relaxing as having a pond, waterfall, or fountainscape in your backyard. Whether you go with the tranquil scene of a water garden with waterlilies and goldfish or you go with the beauty of koi, having a water feature in your back yard can be a source of hours of enjoyment.

Landscaping

There’s nothing quite like a beautiful lawn to spruce up your outdoor living area. Plants and trees are paramount for any residential or commercial landscape. They add natural rustic beauty and make stunning focal points and features. Trust Aerate-1 to turn your yard into a naturally beautiful landscape.

Brick & Stone

Whether you need a flagstone path through your garden or an expansive patio with a brick bar and fire pit, Aerate-1 is the company to trust for brick and stonework. Most homeowners enjoy spending time outdoors in the comfort of their own homes with family and friends. What better place to do so then on your very own brick patio?

Lighting

Landscape lighting is breathtaking in its beauty and provides a safe, secure and welcoming environment to come home to. Lighting is also a great way to mark pathways or accent garden areas. Get the full use out of your garden, yard and patio areas by adding decorative landscape lighting to your outdoor spaces.

Putting Greens

Design and build an artificial turf golf green in almost any location or climate; from a backyard putting green to a rooftop synthetic green, a patio green, a dynamic display for trade shows and events, or a professional golf teaching academy, all in less time and with less effort as compared to outdated rock and gravel construction.
