Masonry Patio
A masonry patio can form the basis of a gorgeous outdoor living space. Many patios function as an extension of the indoor living space, offering more ways to enjoy relaxing like you would inside.
Such a patio can be composed of non-slip, durable pavers that offer mix and match color tones, textures, and shapes to create a custom appearance. A landscaper can use contrasting pavers to outline a dining space or fire pit area within the expanse of the patio.
Masonry Retaining Wall
A retaining wall can offer more privacy and seating to your patio. Your landscape professionals can design and construct a retaining wall of complementary wall stone to give your project a unified look.
Flat, smooth coping could enable you to use the retaining wall for additional seating for larger group entertainment, to display your pretty flower pots, and to bring more serving space to your patio. It can be an ideal place to spread out a drink station and appetizers.
Masonry Fire Pit or Fireplace
The irresistible draw of fire can transform your landscape activities. The ambient light and gentle warmth of a fire can entice your guests outside to enjoy the delight of a fire feature.
A fire pit can be positioned at one end of the patio to make it feel like a destination. Your landscape professionals can add an extended portion of the patio to accommodate a fire pit that burns wood or natural gas.
If space allows, consider adding an outdoor fireplace in the same or similar wall stone as the retaining wall. You may be able to add distinctive touches like a steel or copper chimney top, a rustic, reclaimed wood mantle, and an extra deep and wide hearth. Any special features could make this feature look and feel uniquely yours.
Add Some Shade
Shade can be an important consideration when creating your concept of the perfect outdoor living space. A shade structure can diffuse the hot sun’s rays and make your patio more comfortable.
A pergola can be composed of wood or metal posts that are topped with wood or metal cross beams. One of the advantages of using wood can be the way this natural material connects your patio space to the rest of surrounding nature.
Finish with Landscaping
A masonry project is amazing on its own but flanked by strategic trees, shrubs, and flowers, the entire outdoor space can shine. Your landscapers can handle the masonry design and installation and they can also choose the right plants and other greenery and flowers to make your outdoor space pop.
With crisp edges for the grass and stepping stone walkway to connect the house and the patio, your whole backyard can become the place you have always wanted to entertain friends and spend time with family.
