A
year-round creek runs through this Sonoma County retreat
for a semi-conductor industrialist. The plans from San
Anselmo landscape architect Jori Hook called for adding
a swimming pool, in-ground spa, tennis courts and and
a movie pavilion to the estate.
To carry services for telephone, electrical
and TV cable to the new amenities, DFLC used a directional
drilling system to bore under the creek and lay 3000
feet of large conduit. It was important to comply with
fish and game standards and not to disturb the natural
creek.
Our stone workers built the gently arching stone bridge
over the creek, created stone paving and walls and natural
rock formations around the pool.
The landscaping included lawns and paths
and planting very large trees in box sizes ranging from
36" to 90" and installing a 48 valve automatic
irrigation system. Illuminating the landscape with an
extensive computer-controlled lighting system included
moving the overhead wires underground and connecting
the conduit to an underground vault.

crews of Dan Fix Landscape Construction at work on this
complex project.
