Masonry NJ – Hardscape

Hardscape refers to every element of your landscaping that is not alive, such as patios, walkways, driveways and walls with a touch of elegant masonry. NJ Better Business Bureau-accredited professionals from Bednar have the experience to add Hardscape to your property that will complement your landscaping.

Ground cover is a key component of hardscape. Paver patios, walkways and driveways all can enhance the way your yard looks, and there are myriad options to choose from: brick, stone and concrete, just to name a few. It is also important to know where to place these elements so that you reap the maximum benefit from them. We can design a hardscape that will bring you pleasure for years to come.

Retaining walls are another aspect of hardscape. We especially work with natural stone and block retaining walls, and they can be used for structural or draining needs. Your landscaping design can be further enhanced by a wall to highlight a specific area of your yard. Do you have a problem with flooding or sloping? A retaining wall can eliminate that, as well.

We also do a lot of bluestone work in our hardscape services. This stone is quarried in the United states and has become very versatile. It comes in a slew of shades, and can be used in patios, walls, ponds, pebbles and stepping stones, among other things. It is a beautiful complement to brick and stucco, too.

Another way to beautify your outdoor area with hardscape is a stone terrace. It is perfect for patio furniture, grills, etc., and can be a great place to sit outside and enjoy your yard while enhancing the landscaping work.

Many people want to take hardscape a step further so they can do more outdoors, such as cooking and entertaining. Outdoor kitchens can be as minimal or complete as you like, with refrigerators, stoves, ovens and storage areas – even outdoor pizza ovens! We can design an outdoor kitchen that include a bar, seating area or anything else you can dream up. And if you have already selected your appliances, no problem – we can incorporate them into any hardscape design to suit your needs.

What if you want to sit outside on a cold night, but you want to be able to stay warm? Outdoor fire pits and fireplaces could be the perfect hardscape solution for that. Imagine sitting outside on your patio furniture next to one of these and enjoying the outdoors with a fire cackling nearby. And how much fun would it be to roast marshmallows over the fire and make s’mores? You don’t need to limit your time outside just because the temperatures have gotten a little bit cooler.

You have likely created a haven for yourself indoors with an interior decorator; why not do the same for your outside area? With more than 15 years of experience, we can help you design and then build the perfect hardscape for your yard with longtime experts in masonry.
