F
ireplaces, outdoor kitchens and patios are more
than Scott Reister's specialties – they are his
passion.
A contractor at heart, Reister uses his design ex-
pertise to create stunning outdoor areas that trans-
form backyards into the perfect gathering spots.
"We want to provide spaces people enjoy,"
Reister says. "We want them to feel that sense of
'sanctuary' and have a social experience. It encour-
ages them to spend time with friends and family,
and I like when people use the space."
But Reister and his business – TG&R Landscape
Group in Rock Hill, South Carolina – don't only
create outdoor oases. It's the group's expertise and
practices that really set them apart and make them
one of TLC 's Landscaper of the Year fi nalists.
