Hardscaping is basically one of the main applications of residential landscaping. It generally includes all of the non-living aspects of your landscaping. (The other main type of landscaping is also known as softscaping.) It entails aspects such as trees, plants, flowers, grass and other yard features.
Hardscape construction by the experts at Meyer Exterior can include practically any type of functional or decorative addition to your residential landscaping
A well-executed and carefully prepared landscape design will increase not just the enjoyment of a home’s exterior but also the usable square footage of very valuable space. With thorough planning and expert installation performed by a trained and experienced team, outdoor living space becomes a smart investment. Research indicates that efficiently developed outdoor space can significantly boost a home’s value by as much as twenty percent.
Perhaps you’d like a haven for local wildlife, an engaging playtime area for kids, functional and exciting entertainment areas or simply a shady, calm nook where you can spend time enjoying a garden. Our professional landscaping designers are ready to help bring those visions to reality while also keeping a close eye upon practical aspects such as site analysis, budget, scheduling and selecting an appropriate plan that’s just right for your location.
Brick or concrete patios. This is a popular hardscape feature that offers Illinois homeowners an upscale presentation for a classic, welcoming gathering area for friends and family. Similarly, concrete patios are an ideal addition for homeowners who want the benefits of a patio on their property but also something that requires less maintenance than a brick installation. You can always choose to upgrade your patio by adding some tile.
Flagstone patios. An affordable option that also provides a natural appeal.
Gravel walkways. Frequently another alternative choice to stone or brick walkways.
Stone pathways. Without a doubt, an ideal addition for your garden
Metal fencing. Fencing can include iron or coated steel. Or, if you prefer an alternative to metal consider wooden fencing. Our knowledgeable designers can recommend and install fencing custom to the particular needs of your residential property.
Gazebos, pergolas and wooden arbors. These attractive structures also fulfill a pragmatic purpose by simply providing a comfortable place that offers shade while also improving your landscape. A pergola is comparable to an arbor and connects to your house or other structures on your property.
Water features. From a peaceful pond to appealing fountains, growing plants and greenery in or near water features is an excellent way to merge hardscaping with softscaping.
