Hardscapes FAQs

What is the difference between landscaping and hardscaping?
Landscaping focuses on living elements (plants), while hardscaping involves “hard” structural elements like stone, pavers, and earth-moving.
We follow strict sub-base compaction standards and calculate load-bearing requirements to keep the structure level.
Can you integrate hardscaping with an existing deck?
Yes, CAD software makes the transition between a wood or composite deck and new stone features mathematically precise.
Every hardscape design includes a technical drainage plan to prevent pooling and route water away from a home’s foundation.
