We finally meet you again in order to have an extensive discussion about your space. We present you our plan for the upcoming hardscaping, we have a
detailed discussion about our solutions and finalize the details.
The final study of the outdoor space reflects in the floor plan and the layout of the outdoor space. Including the location and arrangement of all construction and special constructions and elements of outdoor equipment, such as swimming pool, living area, BBQ, bar, planting areas, paths, parking, leisure, sports etc. A ground must be suitable for the type of yard we wish to create.

Hardscaping Materials in Cranford
In order to give your home a relaxing and natural look, there is no better material than wood. However, sometimes wood can deteriorate. It will easily deteriorate when exposed to adverse weather conditions.Alternatively the synthetic deck (a mixture of wood with plastic) resembles the natural wood that forms water and grooves, it is much more durable, recyclable, ecological and easy to install. The new treatments make it a very good choice of material.
Exterior flooring must be durable and resistant. Ceramics and natural stones are the most resistant and there are still several textures and colors, so that you can find what looks like a natural extension of your garden. It is highly recommended to use ceramic or stone, paying attention to the porosity of the material. These materials are more porous and are not suitable for harsh climates during the winter – contrary hair, must be a material that resists low temperatures and cracks. It is also important that they are slip resistant, or that they avoid problems during rains, geadas and snowfalls.
The pavements made of traditional stones maybe will be uncomfortable, but many natural stones are able to adapt to various styles of decoration. Ceramic pavements with a metallic appearance may not be the best option. There is also the ability to choose concrete flooring. Also, smooth and soft texture materials is increasingly used in modern styles of hardscaping.
The materials you choose for your hardscaping make a huge difference to the outcome. For example if you want to create a path, you might want to find a kind of tile whose quality and color matches the materials that were used to the rest of your house. Balcony tiles with bright colors will make the difference and will give life to the space.
