Hardscaping and landscaping go hand in hand. Hardscaping can add structure and style to a landscape as well as help aid in soil erosion. Here at Carroll Landscaping, we are experts in landscape architecture and design. However, we also install walkways, driveways, patios, decks, retaining walls, and other hardscape features. It’s known to a lot of people that landscaping has many positive benefits, but what about hardscaping? If you’re curious to learn more about its advantages, then we’re going to share some tips with you today. Keep reading!
User-Friendly
Once you have the hardscape of your dreams installed, you don’t have to do much to maintain it. The feature will last for years to come, and typically, it doesn’t cost a lot of money to replace. For example, in the case of a landscape, you have to mow and prune it regularly for it to thrive. However, all you have to do is occasionally clean a hardscape.
Prevents Water Runoff
Retaining walls help regulate the flow of water, primarily when inclement weather occurs. Instead of your grass potentially turning brown and dying from too much water, a retaining wall can help prevent soil erosion. Also, for homeowners who want to have a water-free option, a yard space without plants and flowers is an alternative to the standard combination of landscape and hardscape features. This option is helpful to the homeowner who does not want to tend to plants.
Add Home Value
Did you know that over half of homeowners look for an outdoor patio when purchasing a home? If you’ve ever thought of selling your home, then you should know that hardscape features help to give your home curb appeal. Hardscaping helps the architecture of your home stand out and makes the design process easier on the next owner of your house. They can inherit all of the benefits that you received from your hardscape.
Extra Entertainment
If you have a smaller home or merely want to expand your space, then a hardscape helps you to do so. Decks, patios, and screened porches provide entertainment for you, your entire family, and your guests. To make your outdoor living spaces functional in the Fall or Winter, we also install fireplaces and pits.
