Swimming Pools
JM Mento Landscape Design helps you determine the optimal location for your new swimming pool in your backyard with a few initial steps:
- A consultation with you and your family to learn about the lifestyle you would like to accomplish in your backyard, such as maximizing lawn areas or patios areas.
- Joe will study site conditions, such as grades, sun angles, and off-site views
- Extensive research of zoning guidelines that are particular to your site, such as setbacks and impervious coverage allotment.
- Once all this information has been obtained, Joe will prepare a landscape master plan, placing your new swimming pool in the perfect backyard location!
