Create your Dream Backyard with Hardscaping

Land Design by Armstrong is a full-service landscaping company in Salt Lake City and Park City, which means we also offer hardscape services. Oftentimes we meet with clients who want a fully new landscape, a large part of these projects is using hardscaping to create the landscape vision. Landscaping is more than grass, trees, and plants or flowers. Landscaping also includes patios, pools, pergolas, decks, outdoor kitchens, fireplaces, and other outdoor living features that turn your backyard into an extension of your home. By definition, hardscape means, “the man-made features used in landscape architecture” e.g paths or walls, as contrasted with vegetation”. Create your dream backyard with hardscaping with ideas like creating an outdoor kitchen, adding layers with retaining walls, creating a coffee nook, and upgrading your ground pavings and walkways. As Belgard preferred installer, we use the highest quality materials that last for years to come with an elevated and luxurious design. 


Hardscaping Outdoor Kitchen

An outdoor kitchen is an elevation of having a bbq grill in your backyard. An outdoor kitchen is a hardscaped feature that can add all the needed features to your backyard to make cooking outside a breeze. No more running in and out of the house on the spring, summer, and fall evenings when cooking dinner on the grill is mostly every weekend. Add a backyard bar for top-notch entertainment for guests. 

Retaining Walls 

There are many custom ways to use retaining walls. This can create sections in your backyard for different trees and plants. You can create sunken living room spaces for a spa, a fire pit, a patio, and more. Retaining walls can complement stairs so you have a backyard space with levels. There are a variety of material options for retaining walls. Our clients are always pleasantly blown away by the transformation of their backyard after adding retaining walls. Many of the Salt Lake City east benches and Park City backyards are against a hill so retaining walls can help even out your backyard.

Backyard Coffee Nook

An idea in Belgards, “Planning your 2023 dream backyard with Belgard hardscapes quotes, “If you’re working with a smaller lot size, a coffee nook might be the perfect addition for you.” This backyard feature allows easy access to go inside but has a nice paved ground for comfortable furniture to sit on top of.”

Upgrade your Ground Paving and Walkways 

There is no bigger damper to a beautiful landscape than ground paving and walkways that are cracked, uneven, or even crumbling. A fresh lay paver is an upgrade to your home that will not only increase its value but be a lasting investment. You can also change the color and patterns of your ground and walkways so the overall design of your home feels in line with your style and preferences.
