Narrowing Down Those Hardscaping Ideas
Now that you have a better understanding of the different options available, keep these tips in mind as you shop.
Decide on Priorities
When choosing a lighting style, you will want to keep your needs and priorities in mind. If safety is your biggest concern, you may want to consider post or step lights for your deck. Step lights will make sure no one falls or injures themselves walking up and down the steps or walkway. For homeowners who want to add more style to their outdoor space, sconces and wall lights are a great option. If you enjoy entertaining often, a complete lighting system may be what you need. This can illuminate your entire deck area, and sometimes beyond.
Balance Style and Safety
You want your deck to look great, but safety is equally important. Luckily, there are many options for deck lights that are both practical and beautiful, so that you can choose the style that suits your home. Be sure to illuminate stairs and walkways, as well as areas where you may be grilling. By keeping safety in mind, you can ensure all of your gatherings and parties go off without a hitch.

Narrowing Down Those Hardscaping Ideas by A Stone's Throw Hardscaping
Do you have a blank backyard that you know you want to do something with? Or do you already have a patio or deck, but it is time for a fresh new look? Whatever the case may be, when you start searching for ideas, chances are you’re going to find way too many. Narrowing down the right idea for your home may take a while.
Space
First and foremost, how much space do you have for the project you’re looking to have done? You want to make sure that the ideas you have in mind can be done within the area you’re looking at. We can certainly help you determine this, but if you’re limited on space, we would suggest steering away from larger projects that may not work well within that area.
Product & Color
Knowing what type of product you want used for your hardscaping project will be helpful. Depending on the project, will also determine what type of product you should be using. Most of our projects are completed with pavers and natural stone. We personally love the look of both! Both come in a variety of colors.
Budget
This is an important one. Knowing what you’re willing to spend on your hardscaping ideas is something you need to decide. We provide a personalized quote for each project. Each project is different and unique in its own way. Therefore, we can certainly provide you with an idea of what the type of project you would like completed is going to cost.
