Hardscaping refers to the non-living elements of your landscape. Think of things like paver patios, walkways, retaining walls, and outdoor kitchens. It's about building permanent structures that define and enhance your outdoor living space, providing functionality and aesthetic appeal.
A classic example of hardscaping is a beautifully laid paver patio, perfect for enjoying a summer evening in Providence. Other examples include durable walkways leading to your garden, a sturdy retaining wall to manage slopes, or even a built-in fire pit area for gathering with friends and family.
Generally, the most budget-friendly hardscape options often involve simpler designs and materials. While we don't discuss specific costs, projects with fewer complex features and more straightforward layouts tend to be more economical.

Proper drainage is also vital to prevent water damage and ensure longevity. For larger or more complex projects, professional expertise is highly advisable.
The cost of a 20x20 paver patio is influenced by several factors, including the specific paver style and the complexity of the design.
