ENJOYING A GARDEN WITH A POOL OR POND

Looking for a vacation feeling in your own garden? Then you have come to the right place with garden contractor Stijn Peeters from Geel. For over fifteen years, Stijn has devoted himself professionally to garden maintenance and construction. Customers come to him for the most diverse garden projects: the construction of a terrace, driveway or swimming pond, the building of a pool house, the realization of a dream garden... Stijn's order book is well filled. In this article we highlight a project he is very proud of.

Even at a young age, Stijn Peeters was passionate about garden maintenance and landscaping. This passion for greenery and ecology led naturally to the establishment of a one-man business in 2007. What started modestly with garden maintenance and the construction of small gardens, grew after a few years into a total provider of customized garden projects for corporate and private customers. 

Stijn looks back: "I have always had green fingers. Over the past fifteen years, I have built up a wealth of experience and expertise, combined with an extensive network of customers and suppliers. Today I am enormously proud of the journey I have made so far. For all my customers I go through fire, providing the most creative solutions and the best service." 

From ecological garden to trendy swimming pool

For landscaping, Stijn works closely with landscapers. "I very much enjoy working with them. Such cooperation inspires and motivates me. Some of my projects have already been featured in 'Home Sweet Home' living and interior design magazine. I like to play to my strengths, such as the combination of clean lines and sustainable accents, or playing with structure and colors. My clients also appreciate my eye for detail and the total package I offer, from earthworks to planting."

Getting started for beautiful garden realizations

The portfolio of Stijn Peeters Landscaping already looks impressive, with numerous expertly realized projects. A modern, ecological garden in Tessenderlo, a low-maintenance front garden with height differences in Zammel, a rural and child-friendly front and back garden in Vorst-Laakdal...: there is no shortage of examples. When choosing grass seed and flower mixtures, Stijn always opts for the Advanta range: "I am very satisfied with Advanta's mixtures because I can choose from a wide range that was recently completely renewed. From colorful, annual vegetation to perennial native mixtures..."

Project in the spotlight

In March 2021, a client from Turnhout knocked on Stijn's door with the request to give the approximately 800 m² garden a thorough facelift. He gladly accepted this challenge. The couple also asked to build a biopool, which was to serve as a swimming pond at the same time. 

"Together with my regular employee, I worked on that assignment for over two months. We tackled the redesign thoroughly, including a flower meadow with perennial mixtures at the back of the garden, combined with a quiet structure close to the patio. We surprised the client by transplanting multi-stemmed trees that had been hidden from view for years. For the biopool, I did the masonry and work myself, but I outsourced the technical installation to a specialized subcontractor. He could also connect the pool. After two months of hard work, the client was delighted with the final result! Today, the couple enjoys the peace and quiet at the front of the garden and the splashes of color at the back of the plot."
