Sanctuary School & Studio > Landscaping > Gravel, Pebbles and Rocks > 1 School Our official "How It's Done" section to help educate our clients to understand our industry leading installation process! Course: HOW IS SOFTSCAPING INSTALLED? Process - Gravel & Pebble Installation (All loose fill materials) Discover our step by step guide on how we bring your softscape projects to life. Unless otherwise stated in your contract, all installations pertaining to Gravel, pebbles, or any rocks are performed in the exact outlined method! Phase 1: Demolition & Prep The initial stage to any properly done softscape project is a strong foundation, demolition and preparation to mark the layout of the project and to compact the bedrock before the next phases are paramount to a long lasting and properly done project. During this stage we typically remove 2-4" of dirt or surface and level to grade the drainage properly. After grading and demolition is complete compacting will begin to complete the prep stage. Phase 2: Premium Fabric To ensure your new gravel landscape will last we will next install a premium geotextile fabric and secure said fabric into place properly. This is to ensure that weeds or growth from the sediment below will not impact your new landscape space and will result in a longer lasting project both aesthetically and functionally. Proper installation of this fabric is paramount as improperly securing the fabric will result in failure down the road. Phase 3: Base Preparation In used spaces such as pathways or heavier traffic areas we will utilize a base layer of crushed rocks and compact this layer, and level, to create a stronger base that wont shift or pull apart after many years of usage. A plate compactor or roller compactor will be used to follow the same grade that was done during phase 1 to retain the consistency from the initial stage. Phase 4: Edging (Optional) Edging is sometimes needed prior to the installation of the gravel. This is needed when the parameter of the space you are installing the gravel does not have a natural restraint such as an attached concrete pad, any other structures, etc... In these instances the edging is used to retain the gravel within the work area. TO VIEW OUR EDGING OPTIONS PLEASE VISIT OUR EDGING PAGE BY CLICKING HERE . Phase 5: Loose Fill Installation We start by evenly spreading the loose fill over the prepared base, ensuring a uniform layer. We'll Use a rake to level the rocks, filling in any low spots for an even surface. For optimal drainage and aesthetics, we aim for a depth of about 2 to 4 inches however your contract will state exactly how deep depending on the loose fill material picked. Finally, we compact the gravel using a plate compactor to secure it in place, reducing the risk shifting and creating a stable, attractive surface for your outdoor space. 2 Studio Our Official Studio will guide you through all options we carry within the selected category to expertly guide you in your decision making process!

Our unique Sanctuary Sequence, a comprehensive site assessment and planning process, sets the stage for successful pool renovation and new pool construction projects throughout Orange County, including cities like Tustin, Orange, and Fullerton. Phase 1: Preparing the Pool Beam for New or Replacement Coping in Orange County This crucial first phase focuses on preparing the pool beam (the top edge of the pool wall) to ensure proper adhesion and a stable base for the pool coping in your Orange County backyard, whether for a new pool installation or a coping replacement during a pool remodel. As part of our Sanctuary Sequence and your consultation at our Sanctuary Studio, the coping selection (material, style, and color) has already been finalized. This preparation, a critical step for any general remodeling or new pool construction project involving pool coping, includes: Inspection and Cleaning: We thoroughly inspect the pool beam for any existing damage, loose material, or contaminants. We clean the surface using appropriate methods to ensure proper bonding for the coping installation. This is a common task for general contractors in Orange County during pool renovations and new pool construction. Leveling and Repair (If Necessary): We ensure the pool beam is level and make any necessary repairs to create a smooth and even surface for the coping. This is essential for a consistent and aesthetically pleasing coping installation for both new and replacement coping. Phase 2: Setting the Pool Coping for New or Remodeled Orange County Pools This phase involves the precise setting of the pool coping stones or tiles onto the prepared pool beam to create a beautiful and functional pool edge in your Orange County home, whether it’s a brand-new pool or a pool undergoing a coping replacement. This precise process, a key element of any home improvement project involving pool coping, includes: Mortar Bed Preparation: We prepare a mortar bed on the pool beam, ensuring the correct consistency and thickness for proper coping adhesion. Coping Placement and Leveling: We carefully place each coping stone or tile onto the mortar bed, using levels and spacers to maintain consistent spacing and ensure proper alignment with the pool’s edge. This meticulous coping setting is a hallmark of quality pool remodeling and new pool construction in Orange County. Securing the Coping: We ensure the coping is securely set in the mortar bed, creating a strong and stable pool edge for both new and replacement coping installations. Phase 3: Grouting, Finishing, and Cleanup for New and Replacement Pool Coping in Orange County This final phase completes the pool coping installation, adding grout to the joints, finishing the coping, and cleaning up the work area to deliver a beautiful and safe pool edge for your Orange County home, whether it’s a new pool or a coping replacement project. This detailed finishing process, typical of high-quality pool services, includes: Grouting: We apply grout to the joints between the coping stones or tiles, filling the spaces and creating a smooth, water-resistant seal. The correct grout type is selected based on the coping material and pool environment. Joint Tooling: We tool the grout joints to create a neat and professional appearance. Cleaning: We thoroughly clean the coping surface and surrounding pool area, removing any excess grout, debris, or tools, leaving your newly finished Orange County pool coping ready to be enjoyed.

Course: HOW ARE CUSTOM & PRE-FAB/KITS FIREPITS INSTALLED? Process - Firepit Installation Process Discover our step by step guide on how we bring your Outdoor projects to life. Unless otherwise stated in your contract, all installations pertaining to Pre-fab/Kits & Custom Firepits are performed in the exact outlined method! Let's Learn About Our 3 Options 1. Custom Firepits ($$$) Custom firepits, on the other hand, are designed and built to the homeowner's specific preferences and needs. They offer greater creative control over size, shape, materials, and features. Custom firepits can be seamlessly integrated into the landscape design, incorporating elements like built-in seating, stonework, and unique finishes. While custom firepits generally require a larger investment and longer lead time, they provide a truly unique and personalized focal point for the outdoor living space. Quick Comparison Pros: - Better design cohesion with the rest of the landscape due to ability to customize firepit to match surroundings and add lighting etc... - Better flexibility of dimensions allowing firepit to match your needs. - Warranty coverage by Sanctuary Care. Cons: - Higher cost compared to prefabricated counterparts. - Longer installation & lead time compared to prefabricated firepits. 2. Firepit Kits ($$) Firepit kits offer a compelling middle ground between fully custom and prefabricated options. They provide the core components like fire-rated blocks and coping (and often metal inserts for the center), allowing for easier and faster assembly than custom firepits. While kits may offer less design flexibility than a fully custom build, they provide more options that match existing aesthetics if the kit uses a material that is used elsewhere in the landscape. Kits strike a balance between convenience and personalization. Quick Comparison Pros: - More affordable than custom firepits. - Faster installation than custom firepits. - Warranty Coverage by Sanctuary Care. - Long lasting materials. Cons: - Limited flexibility of sizes, styles, and materials. Although the materials allow easy matching to market hardscapes they are hard to match otherwise. - Maximum height per manufacturer specs. - Less modern options available. 3. Prefabricated Firepits ($) Prefabricated firepits are mass-produced and readily available at home improvement stores and online retailers. They offer convenience and affordability, coming in a variety of styles, sizes, and materials, such as steel, cast iron, and concrete. Prefabricated firepits are typically easier and quicker to install, often requiring minimal assembly. However, they may offer limited design flexibility and customization options. Quick Comparison Pros: - Affordable cost due to mass produced materials & pre-assembly along with easier installation. - Quick installation and turn-around. Cons: - Limited flexibility of sizes, styles, and materials. - Warranty is limited to the manufacturer warranty offered. - Typically shorter lifespan of materials and firepit in general. How Are The 3 Options Installed? Option 1: Custom Firepit Options Phase 1: Foundation & Base The ideal location for the fire pit is carefully selected, considering factors like level ground, proximity to the home/gas line, and prevailing winds. The area is excavated, and a sturdy concrete footing is constructed, extending beyond the fire pit's perimeter (typically per code 1/2 times the height of the firepit) to ensure a stable and long-lasting foundation. Phase 2: Building the Walls CMU blocks are meticulously laid to create the desired shape and height of your fire pit. Precision and expertise are employed to ensure the walls are level, plumb, and structurally sound. For added strength and stability, the structure is reinforced with steel rebar, particularly for taller fire pits, guaranteeing a safe and durable fire pit for years to come. CMU blocks are grouted and sealed after 24" rebar is installed as needed. Phase 3: Finishing Touches A chosen finish is applied to the exterior of the fire pit. This could include a smooth plaster finish, a vibrant paint color , or a natural stone veneer to seamlessly integrate with your existing landscape. A wall cap is installed to top off the fire pit, providing a clean, finished look and protecting the gas insert. By standard this process involves a gas firepit.

For gas fire pits, a qualified technician connects the unit to the existing gas line, ensuring a safe and efficient installation.
