Hard landscaping is a fantastic way to breathe life and functionality into your garden. It’s not just about making it look better, but adding value too. Landscaping features not only look great, but they can create a space for socializing, relaxing and working too. With this in mind, we’ve put together an article to highlight some new features you could install to take advantage of all the benefits.
Decking
Decking is a classic hard landscaping feature. It’s decorative, functional and relatively cost-effective. You can raise it off the ground for a better view, expand the entertainment space of your garden and even install bespoke features like hot tubs and barbeque areas. If you’re looking for something to help make your garden more functional for socializing, then a deck may be the best option.
Fencing
Fencing is the perfect way to mark the border of your property whilst complementing the design within. It comes in a number of styles such as:
-
- Feather board
-
- Panel
-
- Picket
-
- Tongue & groove
Not only are the design choices vast, but you can build it to whatever height you like and paint it any colour that matches your home. Furthermore, it provides security, privacy and a boundary for your children and pets to play.
Paving
Paving is a tried and tested hard landscaping feature. It stands the test of time whilst adding a texture contrast to your outdoor area. You can use it to define paths, as well as make an entertainment area for social gatherings. What’s more, it can even be used as a foundation for other hard landscaping features such as pergolas, which we’ll get on to below.
Pergolas
Pergolas are one of those hard landscaping features that provides elegance and sophistication to an outdoor space. Not only do they look great, but they can be used for a variety of purposes too. If you’re looking for an area in your garden that takes advantage of the atmosphere, whilst providing shade, then a pergola is great for this. You can lay paving beneath and put tables and chairs down for the perfect relaxation space. What’s more, you can even grow plants such as wisteria up the side to add a touch of colour too.
