Yes, landscaping with rock is a thing. Yes, you can incorporate greenery into the picture. Still, using natural rock and stone in landscaping is fast becoming a very current choice for those seeking an alternative to the traditional.

When landscaping your property, you may imagine adding new trees along with various shrubs and perhaps some pretty flowers. All neatly arranged to transform your property into a beautiful and eye-catching showpiece, a fauna facelift adding beauty and value to your home.

That is an accurate assessment of landscaping in the typical sense. However, landscaping has evolved and landscaping your lawn or property doesn’t always mean merely an abundance of new flora and fauna.

Today’s professional landscapers offer a variety of new ways to transform your property from ordinary to extraordinary.

 

Rock & Stone

Landscaping with rock and stone offers unlimited ways to add colour, definition, and an aesthetic value to your home that few forms of landscaping can match.

Unlimited in its design possibilities, coupled with a variety of beautiful colours, shapes and textures, natural rock and stone provide you with the opportunity to create a statement that is all your own.

Durable and with classic good looks, more people are discovering the natural beauty of landscaping with rock than ever before and with good reason.

Natural stone is beautiful, durable and less expensive than you would think. It is also zero maintenance and holds its beauty forever. Natural stone and rock can impart a look from extraordinary ruggedness to an elegant stone ensemble that complements any home style and topography.

 

Some Advantages to Rock Landscaping

  • Doesn’t require maintenance
  • affordably priced
  • A departure from the norm
  • Unlimited design options & possibilities
  • Never needs watering

You can use natural rock and flat stone to build colourful and durable walkways, and stone can accent the house or garden.

Professional landscapers are well equipped and skilled at assessing your property and offering various design options. Designed concrete is another available medium, and boulders can be incorporated into your landscape, bold being the key word here.

Ask a Pro

If you are considering a different and unique landscape, think about the benefits and advantages of landscaping with rock, decorated concrete and natural stone can offer.

Transform your property with stone and rock into a natural and inspiring beauty showcase. Limited only by your ideas and imagination

Should you find yourself running low on designing ideas, ask a professional landscaper who is creatively skilled in the business of bringing your landscaping dreams to fruition.

Advantages Of Landscaping

The advantages of landscaping can be maximized by a professional landscaper, who can boost your property’s aesthetics and increase its value.  Over the years, landscaping has evolved to encompass much more than just planting grass seed and a few pretty shrubs. While doing these things will beautify your lawn, involving a landscaper can substantially boost the effectiveness of a landscaping program. While interior design concepts and colours remain static and can drift in and out of style, a well-landscaped property evolves as it grows and changes with the seasons. Trees become fuller, and perennials and shrubs bloom and blossom each year.

Besides adding beauty to your lawn, a recent study conducted by Virginia Tech University showed that landscaping could raise the value of your home and property by an estimated 5.5- 12.7%. On a $500,00 home, that can mean a value increase of $27,500 to $63,500.

The First Word in Planting is Plan

According to Bob Vila of the famed television show “This Old House,” the most common mistake people make regarding landscaping is not having a coherent plan.

Without a set plan, people tend to randomize planting. They plant flowers one year, a tree the next year and a few shrubs the following year.

Eventually, their lawn looks like a patchwork of ill design that can potentially turn buyers off.

You can avoid these mistakes and create a lawn of beauty and value by hiring a professional and dedicated Landscaper like those at Rock Bottom Landscaping.

These three factors play a substantial role in contributing to the beauty and value of your home.
