Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about hardscapes in Barrie.

Can interlocking pavers be used for driveway applications as well as patios?

Absolutely! Interlocking stone pavers are a beautiful and functional alternative to traditional asphalt driveways.

Are there customizable options available for pool and patio hardscapes?

All work we do is custom-tailored to your property, requirements, and tastes. Whatever you're envisioning, we'll help bring to life!

How do I determine the right scale and placement of retaining walls in my garden?

Every property has different landscapes and challenges. That's why we'll work with you on a plan and design to ensure we're making the most of the space in a way that's aesthetically pleasing and functional.

How do stepping stones differ from regular walkway pavers in terms of installation?

Unlike regular pavers, which are often laid on a prepared base of compacted gravel and sand, stepping stones can sometimes be set directly into the lawn or surrounding landscape, with the ground molded around them.

How can I ensure that my interlocking pavers remain weed-free and stable over time?

Applying a pre-emergent herbicide to prevent weeds from sprouting is the recommended method. It's important to follow the manufacturer's instructions and choose a product safe for your type of pavers. If weeds do appear, remove them as soon as possible. Pulling them by hand is often the best method, but make sure to get the roots.

How can I incorporate lighting into my stepping stone pathway for nighttime ambiance?

Outdoor landscape lighting isn't just a great way to make your backyard paradise stand out at night - it's also one of our specialties! For more information, visit our Landscape Lighting page.
