Hardscape

Often a large part of completing a luxury outdoor living space are hardscape elements. Often these structural components serve the purpose of providing some functionality by creating gathering spaces or walkways but also add to the overall beauty of the total outdoor living space. We offer a wide range of hardscape options that will transform and complement your property, creating an outdoor living space that is both functional and beautiful.

Retaining Wall

Dan Skelton Design began with a simple belief: that outdoor spaces deserve the same architectural rigor as a home’s interior. with over 30 years of experience, Dan brings a mastery of space, function, and detail to every project—designing entire outdoor environments that feel effortless, elegant, and enduring. From custom pools and terraces to lighting, drainage, and gardens, we create outdoor living experiences that are as refined as they are livable. Because true luxury isn’t about what you add— it’s about how everything works together

Pavers

We use pavers both on our pool decks, landscapes, and walkways to houses to add functionality and beauty. The paver world has drastically changed over the last few years with many more options now than ever before. With the diverse range of styles of pavers now we can install anything from a rustic or natural look to a more modern and larger slab style pavers. Pavers are a great choice on many of our pool builds as we are often dealing with patios that have been backfilled. Pavers allow us to build patios and walkways on a compacted aggregate base that is more of a floating system than concrete and will not crack and settle. We offer many selections of concrete pavers along with natural stone cut in paver dimensions such as travertine, marble, and limestone.

Waterfalls

Few things can add tranquility and ambiance to an outdoor living space like a waterfall. We offer beautifully crafted boulder waterfalls that can be added to most pools as well as stand alone water fall and streams in the landscape that can either cascade into a pond or pond less system. We have developed a reputation over the years as one of the premier water feature builders in Atlanta. You can not only find our work in many local back yards but also in the front entrances of many neighborhoods. Water features can add both beauty and value to your property. But improperly built structures can cost you thousands of dollars in leaks and become ugly eye sores. Developers and homeowners alike have sought us out because our water features do not fail or leak and add significant value to their properties.

Natural Boulders

Often in Milton, Alpharetta, Roswell, and surrounding areas we use natural boulders to create structural retaining walls to hold hills back to create usable space. These walls allow us to build very large structural walls on uncompacted soils without the need for footings. Often these walls are more visually appealing than large brick or stack stone walls as we blend them into a natural landscape setting. We also use boulders strategically throughout the landscape to add interest to the landscape and often create elevated plantings beds. Boulders can also be used as stand-alone focal points in the landscape.

Natural Stone Patios & Walkways

We offer many options of natural stone pavers and walkways both around pools and in landscapes without pools. This can range from Tennessee flagstone that creates a more natural and free flowing look to more modern or contemporary look with stone such as travertine, marble, or limestone.

Fire Features

A custom fire pit or fireplace can add warmth and ambiance to any property. With a fire feature your family can enjoy the nightlife entertainment experience while making memories to last a lifetime. Bring camping to your own backyard. At Dan Skelton Designs we can create and build any type of fire feature you can dream up. From rustic natural boulder style firepits, to custom masonry fireplaces and firepits to fire features incorporated into your pool design. Contact us today to get started.
