Are you deterred from venturing outside by cold weather and annoying pests? Do you shy away from inviting friends and family over because the only gathering place is inside your cramped house? This fall, why not add value to your property and extend your living space with an outdoor fireplace?
With a return to the coolness of Autumn and the decline of the sizzling hot and humid summer evenings, many Washington, DC area residents are now returning to the outdoors from their air conditioned enclaves. To combat cold temperatures and biting insects well into the Fall season, you can install an outdoor fireplace that will warm and protect you and your family while you gather around the warmth of a glowing fire.

The options for outdoor fires are numerous, but Johnson's Landscaping Service, Inc. has many years of experience building fire pits, fire rings, fire places with chimneys. Our experienced stone masons can build any fire place that you may desire with a wide range of material options. We can provide both natural and manufactured stone to build a fireplace. You have the option of a wood or gas burning fireplace. Whearas gas is cleaner, no mess, and easier to start, wood has a great smell, prevents pests, and provides a little charm to your patio. Please contact one of our professional designers so we may design a fireplace that will suit your outdoor living needs.
The outdoor fireplace adds a centerpiece to your landscape that will last forever and will bring friends and families together for years to come. In addition to the outdoor fireplace, there are many other options to enhance our outdoor living spaces, to include landscape lighting, shade structures, patios, and seating walls.

Johnson's Landscaping Service has taken this off-season as an opportunity to train our excellent crews, management, and designers.
Our maintenance and stone masonry crew leaders were put through rigorous training to enhance their knowledge and perfect their skills. The attendees of this seminar are excited to put their newly acquired skills to work in the field.
Because of the increasing popularity of paver walkways and patios, our stone mason crew leaders participated in an installation certification program. This winter the crew leaders became certified interlocking concrete paver installers (ICPI). This certification ensures that the pavers are installed correctly and adhere to the manufactures' guidelines.
Several members of our skilled design team attended the a winter landscape workshop. The designers gained knowledge in the areas of biodiversity in our landscapes, use of native species, and enhancement of our outdoor lifestyles. These issues are integral in developing sustainable landscapes.
Finally, Johnson's Landscaping Service's leadership team took an opportunity to enhance their management techniques. Our management is dedicated to improving our communication with our customers and staff. As we strive to provide the best service possible to our customers, we will continue to train and educate our staff on the latest techniques and products available.
