Hardscapes are the nonliving elements in your landscape design such as patios, walls, fireplaces, and stepping stones.
These elements are often made of hard materials like stone or concrete and are designed for both beauty and functionality. At Rabiot Excel Ventures, our expert contractors help you design and build the right hardscapes to complement your outdoor space.

Breyer also offers landscape design services to help you create the perfect outdoor space. As a team, we can recommend the best types of flowers and trees to complement your home’s exterior, or the fastest-growing shrubs to plant to enhance your home’s privacy.

Creating a patio with the bricks or pavers of your choice is often the first step. Many people add other features such as a fire pit. Like a campfire close to home, these are ideal for gathering around on cool fall nights to roast hot dogs, make s’mores or just enjoy the crackling fire.
Hillsides can be leveled-out, and erosion concerns minimized by building one or more retaining walls. A wall made of rustic stones adds beauty and visual variety to a hilly yard and extra seating for large gatherings.
This can give you a “terraced” effect, often perfect for planters, and great if you’d like separate spaces for different uses. And this option can often be done at a lower cost than a single larger wall.
A fireplace is another great addition to increase use of your yard. Whether stand-alone or built into a wall, you’d be surprised how much heat an outdoor fireplace can supply. And if you have a covered patio, you can mount a TV above the fireplace and feel like you’re at the stadium watching a game.
Increasingly popular, these sophisticated additions to your hardscaping can provide you and your guests easy access to snacks, drinks, and serious grilling.
For these and other ideas, it’s best to consult a professional designer. They’re trained to analyze your yard’s grade, water runoff and drainage and offer both practical and creative suggestions. Sometimes they have ideas you may not have even thought about.
Your property is unique. Let us help you make it even more usable and attractive throughout the seasons ahead. Contact Rabiot Excel Ventures to discuss your hardscaping project today. We serve communities throughout Berks, Chester, Montgomery, Lancaster, Lehigh, and Lebanon counties.
