Clearwater Group

We create bespoke swimming pools tailored to your property's layout and personal style. Our designs integrate seamlessly with outdoor environments, using advanced 3D modeling for precise visualization. Each project includes structural planning, material selection, and expert construction oversight.

Our patios and decks combine functionality with aesthetic appeal, designed to maximize usable space and complement architectural themes. We handle all aspects from foundational work to finishing touches, ensuring durable, weather-resistant results that enhance property value.

Custom outdoor kitchens are crafted for entertainment and practicality, featuring premium materials and layouts optimized for cooking and socializing. We incorporate built-in appliances, storage solutions, and weatherproof finishes to create year-round usable spaces.

We install fire pits and fireplace elements that add ambiance and extend outdoor usability into cooler seasons. Designs range from modern gas-powered units to traditional wood-burning structures, all built with safety and durability in mind.

Our consultation process uses 3D modeling to visualize projects before construction begins. This allows clients to explore design options, adjust layouts, and confirm details, ensuring alignment between vision and final execution for all outdoor elements.

Tim and Susan Wilson run, by far, the best turnkey company for landscape and hardscape projects in Central Ohio and likely beyond. Over the years I've had a number of hardscape and landscape companies to my home for a variety of jobs. The Clearwater Group is the only company I would trust implicitly to return and deliver on quality, design, and a finished project built to last. The Clearwater Group built the retaining walls and steps around my pool (which dramatically improved the appearance of the project) and re-did a failing front step and stoop with a beautiful design that blended with my existing paver walk and beautified the entry to our home. The Clearwater Group just knows how to get it done right the first time. They have the experience and there's no replacement for that.

Tim/Susan and the rest of the Clearwater team were amazing to work with. We could not be happier with our patio and spend almost every weekend outside enjoying all of their hard work. Would strongly recommend The Clearwater Group to anyone looking to add outdoor living to their home.

Tim and Susan and the entire group of employees at Clearwater were wonderful to work with. We took several bids when looking to create an outdoor space for our family and Clearwater gave us the most unique and creative design to fit needs of our family and ensure nearly year round usability of our investment in an outdoor space. They designed and executed on a hardscape and plantings design that lays in the land of our existing space, as i never would have imagined and incorporates our existing trees.

I think it also achieves a wonderful balance of the traditional brick in the sitting walls and eating area (it was amazing brick and mortar match job as well) with the modern/room like feel of silver travertine. We are thrilled with the outcome and it has been a great addition to our daily living as we grill, s'more, fire watch, eat, imbibe, watch sporting events, blow out birthday cakes, watch the butterflies and birds and pretty much relax and enjoy the great outdoors. They have been great with following up with servicing a few tweaks as well. I highly recommend Clearwater! Beautiful work, valuable living space and great people to work with.

Clearwater did a great job on our outdoor living area! We moved from Powell to Grandview and we have a relatively small space to work with between our home and our garage - much less than we were used to on the suburbs. Tim came and gave us wonderful ideas, listening to our thoughts on how we wanted to use the area. They were very open revising their initial drawings to accommodate our ideas as well.

The work was done by friendly, hardworking and very thorough individuals - they even cleaned up each evening so we weren't looking at trash, etc as the work was being completed. The end product is wonderful and we love spending time outside enjoying our firepit and dining space! Thanks Clearwater!

We would highly recommend The Clearwater Group! They were very helpful with decisions about our patio, good communicators, cleaned up after themselves, polite and professional. We love our new patio! What a quality product!
