Stonework – Scenic South Landscape & Design

In general, homeowners want the most out of their property. However, you don’t want to break the bank doing so. Fortunately, there is a way to do this: add some stonework to your front and/or backyard. In addition to being cost-effective, it will be more than worth it for a variety of reasons. Keep reading to fully understand all the benefits of stonework landscaping.

Perfect for Any Season

As you may already know, stonework landscaping is the process of adding features made of stone to your property. However, there are many different designs you can choose from. For example, you could add a stonework patio to your backyard. Or you could install a rock garden for a more earthy feel. Perhaps try a stonework fire pit for the cooler months. Or maybe even an outdoor kitchen to switch things up a bit. The possibilities are endless.

Eco-Friendly Features

When you want to add stonework landscaping to your backyard, it is important to use natural materials. This is because you do not want to cause any damage to your property simply for appearances. Thankfully, stonework landscaping uses natural materials that are eco-friendly. Thus, you can have the stonework designs of your dreams without hurting the environment.

Increase Resale Value of Your Home

In general, adding any type of landscaping features that were not on your property when you bought your home will increase its resale value if you ever choose to sell or rent it. Why? Because imagine you bought your home with nothing in your backyard. Think about how much it cost. Now imagine you turn that blank slate into a patio, retaining walls, dry creek beds, rock gardens, outdoor kitchens, and more! Can you imagine how much more valuable your home would be now? In addition to that, you could also add some stonework landscaping to your front yard. This will greatly increase the curb appeal of your home. As a result, the whole process of selling or renting your house will be much quicker as this will attract potential buyers.

Cost-Effective Landscaping

So, as you now know, stonework landscaping will increase the resale value of your home. But did you know that it will also save you money? In most cases, people do not realize how cost-effective stonework designs are for your property. How? Well, stones are really easy to clean. Depending on the severity of the mess, you will usually only need to rinse the stones. Or you may need to power wash them if it’s too much of mess to rinse off with a hose. Still, it isn’t very easy to dirty up stonework to the point that a little rain can’t fix it. So, your new stonework features will require less maintenance over time.

Flexibility with Designs

As stated before, you can add all kinds of stonework landscaping. To be specific, here is a list of the most common types of stonework designs homeowners add to their property:

• Dry creek bed
• Rock garden
• Borders
• Hardscaping
• Retaining walls
• Fire pit
• Outdoor kitchen

Although these are the most common types of stonework landscaping, there is no limit to what you can add to your property. Further, here are some stonework landscaping ideas to get you started.

Adds Natural Elegance to Your Yard

Although stonework landscaping is pretty common, it still offers a unique touch to your property. In fact, stones give your yard a natural elegance that is hard to obtain from plants and greenery. Not to say that plants aren’t a great way to liven up your lawn. But why not take it to the next level with some stonework in your backyard? You could even add a rock garden to your front yard to make the landscape of your home more cohesive.

Improves the Overall Appearance of Your Home

Ultimately, the overall appearance of your home will greatly improve with the addition of stonework landscaping. Whether it’s through an outdoor kitchen or a patio or both, stonework is the way to go. Plus, stonework ages really well as it doesn’t fade over time. So, you’ll get more out of your investment with this type of landscaping design.
