With summer in full swing, we are all spending a lot more time outdoors. Not to mention the heat and humidity often has us looking for a space in the landscape to take a break from it all. Shade structures in the landscape are a great way to relax in the garden while staying out of the hot sun. There is a wide variety of options to incorporate shade into your landscape design.

Pergolas are a great way to highlight a patio space, a great place to entertain, dine or relax under. We design and build custom pergolas that will complement your new or existing landscape. Whether you would like your pergola to provide you a nice place to stay cool or to help block an unwanted view in the landscape; a pergola is a beautiful solution.

What better way to extend your living area to the outdoors than with a custom-built deck or brick paver patio. Crimson Valley Landscaping designs beautiful outdoor living spaces; get your landscape ready for summer!

A deck or patio can be as simple as a small space to sit in your favorite chair to enjoy a morning cup of coffee or as elaborate as you see fit for dining, entertaining and relaxing. Extend your home to the outdoors and spend more time with friends and family.
