Pools, Landscapes, and Hardscapes in Gwynedd Valley, PA

Since 1983, Blue Tree has designed and built custom pools, landscapes, and hardscapes for Gwynedd Valley homeowners, from the wooded estates of Lower Gwynedd Township to the historic properties along the Wissahickon. Headquartered nearby in Skippack, we deliver turnkey outdoor living backed by strong warranties and a 4.6-star Google rating.

Why Gwynedd Valley Homeowners Have Trusted Blue Tree Since 1983

Our story started in 1983, and our headquarters is nearby in Skippack. We have designed and built across Gwynedd Valley and Lower Gwynedd Township for more than four decades. What began as a small residential landscape operation has grown into a full-service design-build firm with 70 to 90 team members, six degree-holding designers with a combined 100-plus years of experience, and a production calendar that spans pools, patios, landscapes, turf care, and year-round maintenance.
Our headquarters sits at 4494 Skippack Pike, a short drive from Gwynedd Valley. We do not commute from an hour away to work on your property. We file permits with Lower Gwynedd Township, we know the clay soils and the wooded, Wissahickon-fed terrain of the area, and we understand what it takes to build well on Gwynedd Valley's established estate properties.
What matters most to us is the relationship. We are building pools and patios for the children of clients we worked with 25 years ago. Our designers develop friendships with homeowners that last long after the project is complete. As Jeff, our founder, was told early on: "All you have in life is your reputation." That advice has guided every decision we have made for more than four decades, and it is why Gwynedd Valley homeowners continue to trust Blue Tree with their most important outdoor projects.

Custom Pool Construction

Blue Tree Outdoor Living is one of the only full-service design-build firms serving Gwynedd Valley that handles custom pool construction in-house, from design and permitting through excavation, plumbing, plaster, and decking. We have been building inground pools for 15 years using premium Jandy equipment, and our approach is different: we do not just build the pool and leave. We design the entire backyard environment, including the pool, patio, landscaping, lighting, and drainage, as one integrated project. That is what turnkey means at Blue Tree.

Landscape Design & Installation

Our landscape design and installation services are led by degree-holding designers who create custom plans using CAD software and 3D renderings. We source approximately 90 percent of our plant material from local growers, design for four-season interest and long-term performance, and back every planting with a one-year warranty. Whether you need a foundation planting refresh, a native garden installation, or a complete property transformation, our design team builds the plan around your vision, lifestyle, and budget.

All work complies with Lower Gwynedd Township building codes.

Designed for Gwynedd Valley's Climate, Soil, and Character

Gwynedd Valley sits in wooded, affluent Lower Gwynedd Township in central Montgomery County, in USDA hardiness zones 6b and 7a. Mature tree canopy, winter lows below zero, and summer heat above 90 degrees all factor into the plan. Our designers select plant material, hardscape surfaces, and pool equipment that perform in Gwynedd Valley's shaded, established settings as well as its open lawns.
Soil around Gwynedd Valley is predominantly clay under decades of mature canopy, with the Wissahickon Creek watershed shaping drainage across much of the area. Clay holds moisture and established roots add complexity, so drainage has to be addressed during installation, not discovered after the fact. Soil amendment is part of nearly every planting project we complete here, and proper drainage design is built into every hardscape and pool plan.
We also design around realities Gwynedd Valley homeowners know: deer pressure is heavy on the wooded estate lots, freeze-thaw cycles heave shallow-rooted plants and shift improperly based pavers, and Lower Gwynedd Township enforces its own permitting and stormwater requirements, with many projects being renovations of mature, established landscapes. Based nearby in Skippack, we have filed those permits and solved those drainage problems on properties throughout Gwynedd Valley. That local knowledge is something no out-of-town contractor can match.

Yes. Blue Tree files permits with Lower Gwynedd Township and handles the process in-house, from applications through inspections. The township enforces impervious surface limits and stormwater rules that affect pool size, patio area, and drainage, and the Wissahickon Creek watershed adds drainage considerations on many properties. Your designer confirms the specific requirements for your lot during the on-site evaluation.

Gwynedd Valley sits in wooded, affluent Lower Gwynedd Township in USDA hardiness zones 6b and 7a, with clay soils, mature tree canopy, the Wissahickon Creek watershed, freeze-thaw winters, and heavy deer pressure on the estate lots. Many projects here are renovations of established landscapes. Those conditions shape every plan, from plant selection and drainage design to how pavers and pool shells are based.

Every project starts with a free on-site consultation. A Blue Tree designer, not a salesperson, walks your property, listens to how you want to use the space, and discusses your budget. From there you receive a custom design with 3D renderings and an itemized proposal, so you see exactly what you are getting before any work begins. Request a consultation through our online form to start.
