- Make barbecuing easier. Create permanent concrete or wooden shelving and tables so that you have somewhere to place your cookware and food.
- Create a proper traffic flow. Well-placed concrete pads or stepping stones show guests where to walk. These can direct a path to the shed, pool, or barbecue area.
- Enhance privacy. No matter how much you like your neighbors, it’s nice to have some privacy. A stone wall or brick barrier can keep your yard out of the line of vision from neighbors’ yards.
- Texture variation. You can use hardscaping for purely aesthetic reasons. Using a variety of boulders, large colored glass pieces and concrete pads adds dimension to a garden.
- Provide separation. If you have two or more areas in your yard, separate them with brick walls, grid barriers, or even a built-in stone buffet or counter top.
Careful hardscaping can totally transform the look of your back or front yard. Contact Triad Associates Inc. for help with all of your hardscape projects.
