Home to simply breathtaking communities like Middletown, Hazlet, and Keyport, Monmouth County shine as a pillar of rich history and great beauty. Our communities have been voted several times over one of the best places to live in the United States – and it’s clear to see why.

We take our commitment to keeping our communities green and beautiful very seriously. With the plethora of services we offer – from landscaping to lawn maintenance, outdoor living spaces to aeration – one of our favorites is hardscaping. There are so many awesome benefits for hardscaping your property, and it’s hard to narrow down to just a few.

Extending Your Living Space to The Great Outdoors

You are proud of your home and all the work you have invested in making it beautiful – while your yard may remain, well, a little less so. While you are doing great keeping the maintenance up, it doesn’t speak as an extension to your home, and it’s high time that changed.

Hardscaping is such a broad term, and creating outdoor living spaces is just one of the wonderful things it does. Why not extend the use of your home to the rest of your property by creating a homey environment to be enjoyed outside the four walls? On projects that are detailed like this, we provide the latest in technology with digital renderings so you can see your vision before it becomes a reality!

Ease Up On Everyday Maintenance

Maintenance is part of every property and is important to avoid costly and devastating reactive repairs later on down the road. However, maintenance can be tedious, boring, and sometimes overwhelming. Creating an up-to-date outdoor living space may be just the answer you’re looking for.

Because of the materials used, introducing hardscaping to your landscape allows you to minimize some of the maintenance in your yard space. While hardscaping still needs to be kept up, there isn’t weekly mowing, edging, or weed eating that may need to occur (that’s right, reducing weeds may be one of the coolest parts about it!)

Reducing Your Footprint

What is not tempting about reducing your carbon footprint? We all are looking to do our part to help the environment and become more eco-friendly these days. It may seem like an unorthodox method, but using hardscaping to replace some of your greener landscaping can help you be greener.

When you create a beautiful backyard oasis using hardscaping, you reduce how much water you use and reduce waste due to dead plants and grass. Your patios, outdoor furniture, outdoor kitchens, and helpful retaining walls don’t require regular watering and costly feeding, so they can help reduce water waste.

Express Yourself

You’ve watched all the home and garden shows. You’ve spied your friends and neighbors around town, throwing the best parties in their living rooms that exist outside their homes. And you can’t help but always say, “You know, if this were mine, I would do it like…” Now is your big moment.

Outdoor living spaces are some of the best ways to put your interior – er, exterior – design skills to great use. You know your style, your patterns, your themes, the precise look you’ve always dreamed of. We are here to help you make that your reality, right outside your back door. Invest in your sense of individuality when planning and executing your hardscaping with us.

Throwin’ Some Shade

One of the “cool” things about intermingling some hardscaping in your landscape is offering your yard some much-needed shade and privacy. A stone wall, a lovely fence, or a covered patio can offer your living space the privacy that your home has as an extension of it.

A gorgeous pergola, trellis, or gazebo can offer pinpoints of shade for a more intimate and picturesque setting – and the privacy that goes with them.

Value on Value of Your Property

Whenever you improve your home, whether it be a new roof, new windows, or a kitchen remodel, you expect a return on that investment. Not only is it an investment that pays out immediately in your family’s comfort, but it will payout in the long run when it comes time to sell your home.

The vast majority of potential home buyers look to the outdoor living spaces first when buying their new home. Creating this space with the right amount of hardscaping adds literal square footage to your home that is usable, therefore a more viable selling point.

Prevent a Hardship

Erosion of soil can be a living nightmare for homeowners. Depending on where on your property it occurs, it can damage your landscape features or, worse case, your home’s foundation.

When you add features like stone pavers and retaining walls, patios, and walkways, you reduce the potential risk for soil erosion during the rainy season. Yes, your patio can help save you costly repairs to your property for years to come.

Are You Not Entertained?

Remember those parties we mentioned earlier? Imagine hosting your grand dinner party, cooked in your beautifully appointed outdoor kitchen; wine flowing as folks lounge in comfortable furniture on your gorgeous flagstone patio; topping the night off with s’mores round your crackling fire pit.

All of this and so much more is possible with hardscaping for your yard. Your vision is not hard to realize with the right tools, materials, and experts for the job.
