How to Use Stone in Your Driveway and Landscape
If you’re thinking about making exterior home improvements, you have to consider both functional benefits and aesthetics. The materials that you choose should be durable enough to stand up to varying weather conditions and other potential sources of damage, but they should also be attractive. After all, curb appeal is the first thing that people notice when they visit a house, either as guests or as potential buyers. Leary’s Landscaping is the top choice for stone drives and landscapes.
Stone Pavers Are Tough and Beautiful
Natural stone is in high demand for both driveways and landscapes. Stone can stand up to rain, snow, and dramatic shifts in temperature.
Stone pavers are a popular choice for driveways. When the weather changes, pavers expand or contract, but they don’t crack the way concrete can.
Pavers are not only durable, they also come in a variety of colors and sizes and can be arranged to create attractive patterns. When people come to your home, they will immediately notice your beautiful paver driveway. If you decide to sell your house, a stone paver driveway can be an appealing feature for prospective buyers.
You can also use pavers on other parts of your property. For instance, a paver walkway leading to your front door can make guests feel welcome and can be an attractive focal point. A paver patio can give you additional living space to enjoy relaxing with family and friends.
Other Ways to Use Stone in Your Landscape
Natural stone is a great choice for gardens. Stone can line a flower bed to separate it from other parts of the landscape and to create visual interest.
Perhaps you have trouble getting plants to grow in your yard because of the condition of the soil. The team at Leary’s Landscaping can use stone to give your garden more low-maintenance aesthetic appeal.
Using stone in your landscape design will save you time. If you’re too busy to care for a garden, incorporating stone is an excellent idea because stone requires little or no maintenance.
