The term hardscaping refers to all the things we build in the landscape minus the plant material. Instead, our hardscape materials are of non-living things such as manufactured building products, and non-living elements in nature such as boulders, stones and earth.
The critical roles that grading, drainage & engineering play within a landscape can not be overemphasized. And this holds true not only for landscape construction, but for the plantings as well.
“We have used Roger’s expertise in a wide variety of areas over the past seven years. What makes Roger so unique and invaluable is his attention to detail.“
Landscapes are complex, and shortcomings anywhere in the process can affect the project… and your peace of mind.
My approach is process-oriented. I break things down from planning to implementation — and make sure everyone is kept informed.
My goal is to alleviate concerns such as design decisions, costs, workmanship and material quality. I want folks to stress less and actually enjoy the process.
