Hardscaping is the process of designing and building the man-made “hard” features of a landscape. Hardscapes typically include things like patios, driveways, walkways, retaining walls, pools, decks, fire pits, grills, and many other outdoor living spaces and features.  

While both hardscaping and landscaping involve transforming the landscape around a home or commercial property, they are quite different. Landscaping generally deals with the living parts of a landscape, like grass, gardens, and trees, while hardscaping deals with the non-living features of a landscape, like driveways, walkways, patios, decks, retaining walls, and other more permanent structures. 

By nature, hardscaping requires heavier materials and equipment than landscaping, making it a much more complicated process than most landscaping projects. 

We offer a full range of hardscaping services that make us your one-stop shop for all your hardscaping needs. Some of our most popular services include building retaining walls, walkways, patios, outdoor kitchens, fireplaces, pools, water features, ponds, and more. We also offer hardscape design services so that you can get the custom outdoor living space that you have always wanted. 

Yes, we can. We are not only experts at building hardscapes. We also specialize in designing brand hardscapes and outdoor living spaces that transform dull old landscapes into pleasant and beautiful places that people want to spend time in. 

We will schedule you a free consultation so that you can tell us all about your vision for your outdoor space. Then, we will come up with a design plan that perfectly addresses all your wants and needs. Customer satisfaction is our number one priority, and no matter what ideas you have for your hardscaping project, you can trust that we will come up with a design plan that brings them to life.

The amount of time a hardscaping project will take largely depends on the size and scope of the project. While we may be able to finish the design and install a small walkway in only a few days, larger, more transformative projects tend to take much longer. 

In general, when compared to landscaping projects, hardscaping projects are more complex and require more time to complete. 

If you are curious about how long your potential hardscaping project might take, give us a call, and we will walk you through the entire process so that you can better understand your project’s timeline. 

When compared to landscaping projects, hardscaping projects tend to be more expensive because of the need for more expensive materials and heavy equipment. However, we take great pride in offering the most competitive prices in the region so that no matter if you want to build a patio, pool, pergola, or any other structure, you can get the backyard or your dreams without breaking the bank. 

Retaining walls are some of the most common hardscaping projects that we undertake. These walls are usually made of natural stone, brick, or cinder blocks and are constructed to hold back soil so that the ground is held at a different level on each side of the wall. These work great for evening out hills and slopes in your yard and can add a terraced look to your landscape. 

We specialize in building all types of retaining walls, and we can easily design and construct a retaining wall for your landscape that enhances its curb appeal and functionality and lasts for a lifetime. 

We specialize in designing and building all sorts of outdoor living spaces, including outdoor kitchens. The outdoor kitchens we design typically include ample counter space, grills, sinks, and sitting areas where people can eat and spend time together, but we are happy to customize your outdoor kitchen designs to meet your exact specifications. 

Pavers are a type of outdoor paving material used for constructing driveways, walkways, patios, and any other outdoor path or floor. These pavers are typically made from materials like concrete, bricks, flagstone, other types of natural stone, and even different types of porcelain tile, making them an incredibly versatile way to achieve a wide variety of different looks. 

Pavers and stamped concrete are similar in that they are both used to construct hardscape features like walkways, patios, driveways, and other outdoor paths and floors. However, that is where the similarities end. 

The main difference between these materials is that stamped concrete is one large piece, while pavers are much smaller pieces that need to be fit together to form an even surface. In general, stamped concrete also tends to be cheaper than pavers.
