Stonescaping & Rock Work

When you want a quiet place to get away from the stress of the day, you can relax in your own beautiful landscaped backyard accented with decorative stonescaping. When you add stonescaping to your landscape design, it can feel like adding icing to the top of a cake. A professional landscaping company can use stonescaping to take your landscape to the next level of comfort and beauty in Philadelphia, PA. Here are some of the benefits of adding stonescaping to your landscape design.

Adds Beauty to Your Yard and Garden

The addition of decorative stone enhances the beauty and adds interest to walkways and patios. Retaining walls and stacked stone walls make an attractive outdoor feature when installing them close to a decorative walkway or raised flower bed. Arbors and trellises adorned with lovely growing vines and flowers make a beautiful focal point when placed in the middle of a garden.

Use Stonescaping to Define Areas of Your Yard and Garden

You can use a decorative walkway to define an area in your yard and direct foot traffic to another location. An arbor can signal an entrance to your yard and act as a gate for people to pass through. Installing retaining walls and stacked stone walls are an excellent way to help define your landscaped area.

Increases the Value of Your Home

While living in your home, you may have turned an area of the property that was unusable into a functional outdoor living space with retaining walls. The walkways and patios were places where you found peace and tranquility. If you decide to sell your home, the garden and patio areas that bring you much enjoyment will increase your home’s value. Your potential buyers will appreciate the aesthetics that your outdoor backyard retreat has to offer.

Helps to Prevent Soil Erosion

Homeowners mostly use retaining walls to help keep soil from disappearing through erosion. If you do not address soil erosion early, it could cause problems for your property’s structures in later years.

Another way to prevent soil erosion is through the use of terraced landscaping. Terraced landscapes help reduce the amount of water runoff during irrigation and heavy rains. If you have a sloped yard and want to create a level area for your plants, you can use a terrace.

Provides a Place to Entertain Family and Friends

Other ways to use stacked stone walls include building an area of low seats around a swimming pool or fire pits. Patios built with pavers add outdoor living space to your yard where you can sit and relax or entertain. Having a deck or patio will also help increase the resale value of your home.
