Hardscapes & Pavers
A hardscape often refers to patios, paths or pathways and retaining walls that are found on your property. In addition to the ‘hard’ surfaces referenced above, it may also include arbors, gazebos and a trellis.
While there are many design issues to consider before we arrive to install your dream backyard, you will first need to consider what surface is your favorite. Do you like smooth concrete, or rough stone? Do you like dark stone or light colored stone? Do you want weathered wood or stain?
Whatever your overall design is, we can help you put together a complete and beautiful layout for your property.
