🔥🔥 Here are some before-and-after photos of our largest project to date. 🔥🔥
This project truly had it all. The home was purchased for around $900,000, but it came with a backyard nightmare. Whenever it rained, the pool would flood with mud due to a poorly constructed wall. The pool was also leaking, creating a frustrating situation for the homeowners. They renovated the interior, while we transformed the exterior. Just one year later, their realtor informed them that the house could now sell for $1.6 million.
The homeowners were understandably shocked when their realtor brought over colleagues to conduct a proper price comparison. With their extensive updates and a stunning yard, they had set a new standard in the market.
If you need to invest in your yard to resolve issues, it’s essential to hire a company that will exceed your expectations and deliver quality and excellence at every step. There’s a significant difference between merely solving problems and creating a space that embodies the turnkey ambiance people desire. While it’s important to consider your location and price point, once you exceed $800,000, it becomes less relevant. Buyers are willing to pay a premium for an exceptional yard and outdoor space.
At G & S Designs Outdoor Living & Pools, we are incredibly proud of the results, and the homeowner was equally thrilled to learn that what he thought was a losing investment could actually yield significant returns.
