You might be wondering what hardscaping is and how it relates to your property in Bethesda, Gaithersburg, Germantown, Potomac, Rockville, Silver Spring, and surrounding areas. Hardscaping is all of the landscaping options that are not plants, trees, or soil. This includes such things as retaining walls, patios, walkways, water features, and other landscaping options that deal with anything other than plants, soil, etc. At Moyers Lawn Service & Landscaping we have helped homeowners and others transform their property so that it not only looks beautiful but also provides functional areas outside of the home to use. Contact us today to learn more about the different options you might want to include in your hardscaping plans.
Why Include Hardscaping at Your Property
While a lot can be done using just plants, trees, and other softscaping options, there are some things that hardscaping is designed for, and it provides a contrast to the other aspects of your property that you’ll have done. As mentioned having specific hardscaping areas on your property help to define different areas such as a fire pit or perhaps a reading area.
When you have your walkways made with stone, brick, or other hard material you will be able to enjoy them for years without much upkeep. Additionally, the materials used for hardscaping can provide nice areas for gardening, featuring colorful plants, and generally offer features that would otherwise be more difficult to obtain with other options.
The angular nature and physically hard surfaces of hardscaping provide a nice contrast to the rolling grounds and grasses that your property otherwise has. Rocks for decoration, brick walls for separation and seclusion, and even wood and metal can be used to enhance your property. Our team can help to complement your home and property with the right material choices for the hardscape aspects of your landscaping, and these will also work nicely with the other aspects being done.
Not Just a Pretty Feature to Look At
We include hardscaping in the landscaping project not just because it visually provides something interesting to look at, but also because it opens up new spaces for you to live in. You may want to have a nice place to eat a meal or enjoy some drinks, so having a large patio space where you can add seating and a table is important. You may want to enjoy a natural fire outdoors as well, so having spaces to sit are great hardscaping options. Let us put our experience to work on your Bethesda, Gaithersburg, Germantown, Potomac, Rockville, Silver Spring, and surrounding area home.
