Meet Brad

Howdy,

I'm Brad Walters – a true Florida boy through and through.

I grew up with the sun on my face and sand between my toes on the shores of Lake Conway in Orlando. My childhood was spent knee-deep in the water, building forts out of driftwood, and crafting koi ponds with my bare hands long before I even knew what “landscaping” meant. It wasn’t just a hobby; it was how I connected with the world around me.

For years, I poured my heart into creating backyard paradises, from koi ponds that danced with reflections to decks where memories were made. But life took me down a different path, and I found a new calling as a special needs teacher and high school offensive line coach. Teaching taught me patience and purpose, and coaching taught me grit and teamwork. But no matter where life led, I never lost that yearning for the outdoors or that spark to build something beautiful from the ground up.

Now, at this stage in my life, I’m ready to reconnect with my roots and bring a piece of that old Florida magic to other people’s backyards. There’s something timeless about water flowing over rocks, about creating a place where people can sit back, relax, and soak in the beauty of nature. I want to share that feeling with you.

If you're ready to add this element to your backyard, I’m here to make it happen – the way I’ve always done it: with heart, hard work, and a little bit of that Florida boy spirit.

Let’s build something beautiful, together.
