Explore Outdoor Living →Front entrance projects can involve more than replacing the visible steps. The landing, connecting walkway, driveway edge and surrounding masonry all influence how the entrance looks and functions once the work is complete.
Properties with elevation changes may also require careful planning around masonry walls and steps. The finished layout should create practical transitions while accounting for drainage and the surrounding landscape.
In backyard areas, patios, walls, steps and walkways can be planned together to create usable spaces that connect naturally with the home and yard.
Before choosing the final stone, pavers or other materials, the existing masonry and surrounding conditions should be evaluated. Grades, drainage, access, landscaping and neighboring surfaces can all affect the construction approach.
When an entrance or outdoor area includes several connected features, planning them together can create a more unified result. Steps can coordinate with their landing and walkway, while walls, patios and other hardscape areas can be designed around the overall layout of the property.
