Hardscaping Materials That Significantly Increase Your Home’s Value

August 7, 2023 by Lawn & Landcare

As a residential or commercial property owner, you’re always looking for ways to increase its value. One popular way to achieve this is with hardscaping. Installing non-living elements like pathways, retaining walls, and patios adds to your property’s charm and perceived value in the eyes of future buyers. It also adds to your enjoyment of the space. Here are the materials offering the best return on investment:

Natural Stone

Long a popular choice for hardscaping, this classic material holds natural timeless appeal. It comes in a wide array of textures and colors to coordinate beautifully with any architectural style.

Concrete Pavers

Another popular choice is concrete pavers for walkways, patios, and driveways. It is versatile, can be colored, textured, or stamped for an individual look, and is affordable. It’s also environmentally friendly as it allows rainwater to seep into the ground.

Brick

The warm tones of brick are still a homeowner’s favorite. Besides adding aesthetic appeal to walkways and patios, it lasts for decades. It must however be professionally installed to reap the property value benefits.

Wood

Decks and pergolas add value while providing functional outdoor spaces you’ll use every day. Sustainably sourced materials like redwood or cedar create a quality finish that is also durable.

Porcelain Tile

Tile is a great choice for a sleek, modern look with minimal maintenance. Choose colorful, frost-resistant tiles for your patio or outdoor kitchen.
