While landscaping is a popular term, hardscaping is something that few of us have heard off. The hardscape in your garden involves everything that is hard. This includes the paver patios, decks and even walks. While most of us take the hardscape for granted, it is the hardscape that gives the garden it’s true definition and a charm.
Combining the hardscape with the existing landscape requires a lot of ingenuity and creative thinking. While well placed stone structures can give the landscape the desired ‘wow’ effect, the opposite is true when the hardscape is not chosen well.
Creating an outdoor living area is an art. Luckily there are many companies that provide professional hardscaping assistance. They help you to design your hardscape in a style that will suit the pre-existing persona of your house.
PAVER PATIOS
Paver patios are generally the most used part of the garden simply because it acts like an extension of your living space. The best part about this extended place is that it is in the outdoors.
Finding a person to install a patio is the first step towards getting the patio of your dreams. With the growing number of hardscaping companies out there, it is not hard to find a professional who can do your job for you.
While many people may want to do the job on their own, patios are best done by people who have years of experience. Making a mistake in installing your patio could be a costly one. That is why relying on a professional’s expert advice always seems like the logical way to go ahead.
Professional hardscape’s help the owner understand what kind of patio is best suited for his house. They also offer suggestions which can change a dull patio idea into an ingenious one!
WALKWAY
Walk into a garden and you need to ensure that you don’t trample on the plants around you. The easiest way to ensure that your plants are safe is by installing a walkway.
Walkways come in different patterns and shapes. While small gardens may require a practical walkway which takes you from the gate to the house, larger gardens can have intricate ones. All in all, a walkway serves two main purposes. It helps get you from point A to point B without damaging the plants in the vicinity. It also helps add structure to the garden. It is very much like an artist who outlines his paintings with a bolder color. The walkways help define the character of your garden.
Paving the walkway is hard work. While most people look at it as a jigsaw puzzle, paving a walkway involves far more skill than that. You need to ensure that the paved walkway is level. If one of the pieces is a little above the other, you will find everyone tripping as they walk. Professional hardscape’s undertake walkway installation. It is a job that is best left in their hands because they get it done quickly and efficiently. They even come up with designs that are pleasing to the eye.
DECKS, FIRE PITS AND OTHER STONE WORK
Hardscaping is not limited to patios and walkways. It covers so much more than just that. Any structure in your garden that is made out of stone comes under the jurisdiction of hardscaping.
Decks next to the pool are another popular task that requires someone with the knowledge of hardscaping. While we do not pay much attention to the deck while using it, planning the deck before it’s installation is usually the hard part. With so many different kinds of decks available, it is hard to decide which ones are the most practical. That’s why it is important to sit down with a professional hardscaper and work out the logistics.
A number of other kinds of stone work are incorporated into almost every garden. Fire pits for barbecue nights, fountains and even some stone stands and benches. Placing of this stonework needs to be done in a way that is both artistic and yet practical. This kind of planning requires knowledge of the different elements that could affect the stone work. Consulting an expert before getting them installed could save a lot of time and effort.
Designing and installing the hardscape in your garden has never been an easy job. With the number of companies which specialize in hardscape increasing, the resources have also increased. These resources include manpower and experts in the field of hardscaping. Using these resources enables people, to design their gardens with a certain piazza that was never available before!
