Hardscaping
Patios and terraces, retaining walls, walkways and paths, planting beds, etc. Landscaping with rocks and man-made materials like concrete pavers is essential in building usable outdoor spaces. There are many choices available for creating a unique hardscape. We’re familiar with local sources, and we’ll help you select the proper materials based on your landscape design goals and style.
Concrete
Concrete is a versatile material for creating outdoor rooms that can increase the value of your home as well as reclaim unused areas of the property. Patios and terraces can be contoured from poured concrete and then colored, textured and stamped for a more natural look. Concrete paver units and blocks are great for creating paths, walls and planting beds. These materials come in a wide variety of shapes, colors, finishes and patterns to achieve the desired look and feel.
Rock
Natural stone is perfect for naturalizing a landscape while providing the necessary structure to your outdoor living spaces. Rocks come in all shapes and sizes – from flagstone for patios, to gravel for walkways, to natural lichen-dusted boulders for seating and visual impact.The type of landscape rock selected depends on its use and the aesthetics of the design. We can excavate natural rock from your site or import it for specific landscape design criteria. It can be cut or split many different ways to change its color, look and texture.
“. . . to bring harmony and order out of chaos, to introduce meaning and affect where before there was none, to give rhythmic variations, highs and lows to a landscape that was previously flat.”
