What to Expect During Your Project

Preliminary Evaluation

Before delving into your hardscape project, our team will conduct a detailed walk-through of your property to understand your goals fully. We will also gather information about your timeline, budget, and any challenges you anticipate. Our onsite assessment involves identifying any critical drainage patterns, vegetation, and soil load-bearing capacity to ensure the stability of your hardscape design. 

Selecting Your Materials

Choosing the best materials for your job requires expertise and foresight. Our specialists select natural stone, pavers, concrete, or wood to give your porch, patio, driveway, or deck a unique look and feel. Your local climate can impact the choice of materials, as well as your budget and the demands of your vision. Our goal is to exceed your expectations by balancing all aspects of your ideal space with realistic limitations and constraints.

Installing Your Hardscape 

First, your site is prepared by marking any underground utilities, and any vegetation, tree roots, soil, and debris are cleared away. We install proper drainage systems to avoid property damage. We then complete all base preparation and check its moisture content. Pavers are then installed. Finally, we apply the finishing touches to your hardscape.

How Much Does Hardscaping Cost?

Hardscaping projects in Washington, DC, can range from $15,000 to $50,000+, depending on their complexity. Costs vary according to the materials used, the size of the area addressed, and whether the job is performed on elevated or sloped land.
