It isn’t hard to believe that stonework is an incredible investment for your property. With hundreds of thousands of designs and uses, hardscapes can be perfectly customized to suit your needs and increase your property’s financial and aesthetic value.
Hardscapes can be paired with artistically arranged landscapes to turn your property’s exterior into a natural oasis that is both fun and functional. The options are only limited to your imagination with a professional landscaping service such as Bluegrass Lawncare.
Masonry Is In
People have built things out of stone for millennia- they have carved, arranged, and placed stones to make functional spaces that remained naturally beautiful from the simplicity of stone. While we are no longer building houses with rocks and sticks, people still need to feel connected to the world around them, and what better way to do that then by installing stonework to keep nature close in an aesthetic and maintainable way?
Masonry and stonework are a way to increase your home’s exterior value in a more permanent way than traditional softscaping, and when paired with softscaping, hardscapes can make your property a natural wonderland with all the comforts of modern living. Stonework is also a way to protect your outdoor space by installing simple and beautiful retaining walls to ensure that the ground around your home remains securely in place.
Increase Property Value
From buying and selling to apply for a loan, your property’s value matters. There are many ways to increase your property’s value through interior improvements and renovations, but the best way to increase value overall is by investing in landscaping. Curb appeal is a real estate concept that describes the draw of your property to people from an aesthetic perspective. If your property looks nice, then its value is greatly increased in the eyes of buyers and assessors.
Customizable and Permanent Beauty
The beauty of stonework is the fact that it is extremely customizable and long-lasting. From installing a simple firepit to building a complex patio- stones or pavers can be arranged to suit your needs in a lasting way. Unlike simple concrete installations, hardscapes built from stones and pavers are more crack and stain resistant- weather does not change their aesthetic appeal.
A popular choice for installing a hardscape is to construct it out of pavers. Pavers are a type of brick that come in thousands of shapes, sizes, and colors. These are more affordable than stone, and typically extremely durable.
Hardscapes require very little care throughout the years, making them a good choice for busy people who want to make their home more aesthetically appealing. Whichever type of hardscape you invest in, the results are sure to be lovely and low-maintenance.
