What Is Custom Hardscape Construction?
Hardscape refers to the built, non-plant elements of an outdoor environment, including:
• Paver patios and driveways
• Concrete installations
• Retaining walls
• Seat walls and corten steel walls
• Courtyards
• Decomposed granite pathways
• Outdoor gathering spaces
• Integrated turf transitions
Custom hardscape construction means these elements are designed specifically for the site’s architecture, grading, drainage needs, and intended use.
Integration With Landscape & Turf
Hardscape must integrate seamlessly with surrounding landscape elements.
• Artificial turf transitions
• Drought-tolerant planting areas
• Irrigation systems
• Lighting placement
• Drainage channels
The result is a unified outdoor environment rather than disconnected components.
