How Greenway Partnered with The Paul Family
Consultant Comments

Bill’s front entryway was initially lackluster, with outdated hardscaping and poor drainage. Greenway revitalized this space with modern Belgard pavers featuring charcoal edging, enhancing both functionality and aesthetics. The planters were also reimagined, incorporating new irrigation and mature plants to create a more inviting curb appeal.
In the backyard, the pool was in disrepair, requiring a complete overhaul. Greenway resurfaced the pool with new plaster, waterline tile, and coping, added safety handrails, and designed a raised bond beam with an integrated water feature, making the pool area a true luxury retreat. The surrounding cracked concrete patio was removed and replaced with matching Belgard pavers, ensuring seamless continuity from the front to the backyard.
The landscape itself was struggling, requiring excessive irrigation, and lacked functional entertainment spaces. Greenway removed the large hedges that disrupted the space, replacing the inefficient sod with lush, American-made artificial turf for a low-maintenance, water-efficient solution. Additionally, we installed new vinyl fencing to enhance privacy and security while integrating 3' wide planters for a natural aesthetic.
One of the most exciting transformations was the addition of a raised wood-like paver patio, which now serves as a dedicated outdoor living and dining area. To ensure safety and visual appeal, Greenway incorporated modern cable rail fencing, separating the entertainment space from the sports court below.
Bill’s original full-size tennis court was too large for his needs, so Greenway resized it to fit a pickleball and basketball court. We refinished the court, installed a new basketball hoop, applied pickleball lines, and introduced ball retrievable netting to maximize usability.
Key Design Considerations
During our initial consultations, we worked closely with Bill to understand his priorities:
- Maximizing Functionality: Redesigning and optimizing each area to ensure practical and aesthetic improvements.
- Seamless Indoor-Outdoor Transition: Creating cohesive design elements between the front and backyard spaces.
- Enhanced Entertainment Areas: Designing multi-purpose outdoor spaces perfect for hosting guests and family.
- Sustainable & Low-Maintenance Landscaping: Utilizing artificial turf, drought-tolerant plants, and efficient irrigation to minimize upkeep.
- Safety & Accessibility: Installing safety handrails, modern fencing, and refinishing the pool area to ensure a secure environment for all.
Bill was absolutely thrilled with the entire transformation. From the meticulous 3D design planning to the exceptional execution, he felt that Greenway delivered a truly world-class experience. His outdoor spaces are now beautiful, highly functional, and perfect for hosting family and friends. He continues to praise Greenway’s professionalism, quality craftsmanship, and customer service, solidifying our reputation as the premier landscape design and build team in Poway, CA.
