Patios, Walkways, Walls & More
Hardscape Features That Make Your Yard More Usable
Retaining walls improve the safety and look of your yard. Our hardscape materials are designed to blend in well with the surrounding environment.
We work with natural stone and organic materials to create an outdoor space that is as aesthetically appealing as it is functional. Even our brick and concrete are designed to look as natural as possible.

Material Selection
Hardscape Materials We Work With
Material selection should support both the appearance of your home and the way the finished outdoor space will be used. Vision Green works with natural stone and other hardscape materials to create patios, walkways, walls, and outdoor features that blend naturally into the surrounding landscape.

From Simple Patio To Full Outdoor Retreat
Hardscape Planning For The Way You Actually Use Your Yard
Do you have a goal for your outdoor living space? Whether you are designing a simple patio or a full outdoor kitchen and entertaining space, you need our team’s professional services to ensure your vision is realized.
Vision Green helps homeowners think through layout, materials, flow, drainage, seating, outdoor features, and how the finished space will connect with the rest of the landscape.
Plan Before You Build
What Should You Consider Before Starting A Hardscape Project?
A patio or retaining wall does not exist separately from the rest of the property. Thinking through water, grade, access and future improvements before construction begins can help create a more cohesive finished outdoor space.
Drainage
Consider how water currently moves through the property and where it will travel after a patio, walkway or wall changes the surface.
Grade
Sloped or uneven yards may require excavation, leveling or grading work before the hardscape is installed.
Access
Equipment, excavated material, base materials, stone and pavers all need a practical route into and out of the work area.
Materials
Consider appearance, how the surface will be used and the level of ongoing maintenance you want from the finished space.
How You’ll Use The Space
Dining, entertaining, a fire feature, walking paths and pool access can all affect the size and layout of the project.
Future Projects
Planning ahead can make it easier to incorporate future lighting, outdoor kitchens, irrigation or landscaping.
