View our latest traditional pavilion with Passion Spa, built on the unused sloped backyard of this home in Commack, New York.

Unused sloped backyard areas can be transformed into usable spaces by incorporating terraced gardens, retaining walls, rock gardens, or even dedicated planting zones that utilize the slope for varied plant life. This will manage potential erosion issues and create distinct levels within the yard, turning a challenging slope into a visually appealing and functional outdoor space.

This recent project, designed and built by Gappsi in Commack, N.Y., involved using the unused sloped backyard area and making it very useful.

  • Slope Severity:  The degree of slope will determine the type of structures needed, with steeper slopes requiring more substantial retaining walls.
  • Drainage: Ensure proper drainage to prevent water accumulation and erosion, especially in areas with heavy rainfall.
  • Sunlight Exposure: Consider how the slope affects sunlight exposure when choosing plants for different areas.

We built a multi-level retaining wall using the Nicolock Granite City Firma wall. The first level creates a flat area for the 18×36 traditional pavilion with the Roman pattern G045 natural blue-gray limestone patio floor from the Gappsi Natural Stone Collection.

Gappsi built the traditional pavilion with Passion Spa. Adding a conventional pavilion to your backyard provides a dedicated, covered outdoor space that protects you from the elements while enhancing the aesthetic appeal of your yard. It allows for comfortable outdoor living, entertaining guests, and potentially increasing your home’s value. It creates a functional and stylish area to relax and enjoy the outdoors, rain or shine.

Key benefits of a backyard traditional pavilion:

  1. Shelter from weather: Protects from sun, rain, and wind, allowing you to use your outdoor space even during inclement weather.
  2. Elevated aesthetic: Adds a touch of elegance and sophistication to your backyard design.
  3. Multipurpose space: This can be used for dining, lounging, gathering with guests, or even a casual outdoor living room.
  4. Increased outdoor living: Encourages more time spent outdoors by offering a comfortable, protected area.
  5. Potential home value increase: A well-designed pavilion can add to the perceived value of your property.
  6. Customization options: Can be designed and built to match your style and needs, including size, materials, and features.

Second and Third Level Retaining Walls

A second retaining wall was built to retain the slope and the ground behind it.  Tiered retaining walls comprise two or more walls, each higher wall set back horizontally from the underlying wall. When appropriately designed, they retain soil and support loads, deliver an attractive appearance, and provide room for plantings.

Our team installed and built a three-hole putting green on the patio.  A 3-hole putting green in your backyard offers several benefits, including improved golf skills through dedicated practice space, low maintenance with artificial turf, increased property value, fun for family and friends, mental stimulation through strategic putting, and the ability to customize the difficulty level of each hole; allowing you to focus on specific aspects of your putting game depending on the design of each hole.

With a 3-hole design, you can create diverse putting challenges by varying the length, slope, and green contours on each hole to target specific putting weaknesses.

Important considerations:

  1. Space Requirements: Ensure you have enough yard space to accommodate a 3-hole putting green with appropriate distances and design elements.
  2. Installation Costs: Factor in the cost of materials, installation, and potential landscaping needed for your putting green.
  3. Maintenance Routine: While low maintenance, artificial turf requires occasional brushing and cleaning to maintain optimal putting conditions.

Custom Traditional Pavilion with Passion Spa Designed and Built By Gappsi

The 18 x 36 pavilion was built with a bare wood ceiling stained mahogany.  An audio system and electrical heating system were also installed so that people could enjoy year-round entertainment.  Behind the TV wall, we created an area with a door in the back for additional storage.  The wall was veneered with silver travertine tumbled, and the TV was hung on the wall.

Steps on both sides of the patio access the pavilion area, also used as a ping-pong area. This is the latest masonry-designed sports court and pavilion incorporated into an entire abandoned area. It became the most helpful part of the backyard. It is the newest project built by Gappsi in Commack, NY.
