Hardscaping

Hardscaping is the part of landscaping that focuses on the installation of landscape features that are built of concrete, stone or other hard materials.

Hardscaping involves the renovation or construction of an outdoor area using natural and man- made materials like various types of concrete, interlocking pavers, brick or any other type of  masonry material. Hardscape includes features such as driveways, walkways, patios, retaining walls, outdoor kitchen areas and other designs.

Most well-planned landscaping project includes at least some hardscaping. For example, stone planter boxes can be considered hardscape, and many plans to contour the landscape will include retaining walls, walkways and patio areas.

Hardscaping also is used to prevent erosion and water runoff by constructing barriers, elevated areas to support proper irrigation systems. It can help save water while maintaining a more beautiful property.

Ideal Landscape & Concrete incorporates aspects of hardscape design into every landscape project to achieve the thriving, vibrant outdoor living spaces our clients desire.

David was extremely flexible and juggled his schedule (very difficult this time of year with how busy they are) and got a big, complicated job done in a week so me could make our deadline. The work was awesome and his crew were great and very considerate. We couldn’t be happier with the result and relieved that they got the job done in the time we needed it done.

They were always prompt and laid out a small section of the driveway for approval before moving on with the work. They also were able to work around a large redwood tree in my front yard and a French drain in my driveway. Their prices were competitive, and they even removed a few random pieces of asphalt for free.

“Exceptional service, and great attention to detail. David was prompt in returning phone calls or answering questions. He was very patient during the initial design phase and helped in making practical decisions that would not unnecssarily add cost. Our patio was completed in a week and David and his men did a great job listening to what I wanted and executing it to perfection”
