Here we explore some of the most commonly asked questions about hardscape design.

  • What is the difference between hardscape and softscape?

    The difference between hardscape and softscape is the type of material used. Hardscaping uses materials such as stone, pavers, concrete, or bricks to create structures like patios, retaining walls, walkways, and driveways. 


    Softscaping focuses on using living elements such as plants, trees, shrubs, and other organic materials to create beautiful landscapes. 

  • How do I know what type of material to choose?

    When deciding what type of material to choose for a project it is important to consider your budget and lifestyle needs. It is also helpful to think about the climate you live in and which materials will work best in that environment. For example if you are in an area with a lot of rain it might be better to use pavers instead of bricks because they are more resistant to water damage. Not to worry, our hardscape contractors will help you choose the right material for your property. 

  • How long does it take for a hardscape project to be completed?

    The time it takes for a hardscape project to be completed by Shades of Green usually depends on the size of the project and the materials being used. Smaller projects can usually be done in one day while larger projects may take several weeks or even months. 

  • How do I maintain my hardscape?

    Maintaining your hardscape is important for keeping it looking its best. It is recommended that you clean off any dirt and debris with a garden hose on a regular basis as well as seal pavers every couple of years. Additionally, if you are using concrete or brick, then repairing any cracks or chips should also be done regularly. If you have any questions about maintaining your hardscape, feel free to reach out to our team.
