Garden design and planning are key considerations for all hard landscapers in Camberley, but what exactly does this specialist field involve? On this page, our landscaping company offers an insight into our core services and explains the differences between your hardscape and your softscape.
Hard Landscaping Explained
It is best to think of hard landscaping as the design and installation of hard materials, like block paving, brick and timber, to create permanent features which add aesthetics and functionality to a garden. The hard landscaping theme is referred to as the hardscape. The softscape (or the soft landscaping theme) consists of natural elements which need ongoing maintenance and seasonal care, such as lawns, beds, borders, hedges and trees.
Hardscapes in Camberley can incorporate the following:
- Garden Paving Installations
- New Driveways and Patios
- Artificial Grass and Lawns
- Garden Fencing Panels
- Ponds and Water Features
- Garden Wall Construction
- Retaining Wall Construction
- Garden Rooms and Garden Offices
Individual services offered by our landscapers now include clearances, bulk excavation, groundworks, spoil removal and the creation of foundations.
For hard surfaces, the foundations usually take the form of a sub-base.
Hardscaping Concepts and Ideas
How you choose to hardscape a garden in Camberley will depend on its size, the surroundings and any aesthetic or functional benefits you would like to attain. If you would like a dedicated parking space away from the roadside and a chance to reduce your insurance costs, a new driveway will be one of the more essential additions. If you like to relax in your outdoor space, you can choose our team to lay garden patios in a choice of materials including traditional flagstones, block paving, natural stone and tarmacadam.
For a maintenance-free hardscape, swapping out a natural lawn for artificial grass will give you much less to do during the warmer summer months.
For added privacy and security, you can have timber garden fencing panels erected around the perimeter of your Camberley home, or our landscapers can use decorative styles, like picket fencing, to form areas of interest or to create separate areas in the garden for different purposes.
An example could be a standalone play area for the children, separated by a small fence with a patio on the other side for the adults to enjoy.
Our experience with brickwork makes DPS Landscaping & Roofing a reliable choice for retaining and garden wall construction, and we can also build garden rooms and garden offices in brick. Those with an eye for a more natural hardscape can have garden rooms built in pressure-treated timber.
As you can see, we have Camberley covered with a complete range of hard landscaping services. Making permanent additions to your outdoor space will enhance kerb appeal, make your home more attractive to potential buyers in the future and increase market resale values when the time comes to sell.
