Whether it’s building a retaining wall or staircase, or constructing a new patio or walkway, hardscaping is a necessity to any well-designed outdoor area. Complimenting your home or business with beautiful stone terraced walls converting unwanted slopes and hillsides into functional spaces, while paving stone patios and walkways give friends, family and customers a place to enjoy. Careful thought and planning, along with solid foundation and proper drainage, is essential to ensure that the construction is accurate and durable. Hardscaping can elevate your landscape to the next level.
Hardscaping is not only aesthetically pleasing, but also has the functionality of providing added safety to your land. Projects such as retaining walls are used to prevent soil erosion, divert rainwater, or create definition in your landscape. This is paramount, because under key conditions, erosion can lead to severe structural problems for your property and may make your outdoor area unsafe, with potential to cost thousands in repairs.
Remember, a professional hardscaping job can increase the value of a home by as much as 20 percent, and set your property apart from others on the market.
Some examples of hardscaping are:
Retaining Walls
Built in places where extra support is needed to prevent the earth from moving downhill with erosion, retaining walls often battle gravity to offset the lateral force of a slope or downgrade.
Garden Walls
Lower style walls, usually about 18-24 inches tall, garden walls, are intended to line landscaping features and act as a divider between instaqlled features and the rest of the landscape.
Interlocking Paving Stone Driveways & Patios
Add instant charm to your outdoor space. Made from cement or concrete, and coming in a variety of shapes and sizes, interlocking pavers can be used to simulate the effect of cobblestone paths. They usually connect together with sand and are a great alternative to the traditional patios or paved driveways.
Staircases & Pathways
Creating stairs and pathways in the natural landscape of your property is an excellent way to enhance the aesthetic beauty of the surroundings while making different parts of your property more easily accessible. Turn a previously difficult trek into an easy trip with professionally constructed stairs or along a beautiful paving stone walkway complemented by our lighting packages.
