Frequently Asked Questions

What is hardscaping?

Hardscaping refers to the non-living, structural features of a landscape – patios, walkways, driveways, retaining walls, and steps. These elements provide the framework that the rest of the landscape is built around.

What is a hardscape contractor?

A hardscape contractor designs and installs a property’s structural features, such as patios, walkways, and retaining walls. At Royal Oak, that means handling both the design and the physical construction, from site assessment through final cleanup.

What is considered a hardscape?

Patios, walkways, driveways, retaining walls, steps, seating walls, and outdoor kitchens are all considered hardscape. Anything built from stone, concrete, brick, or paver material generally falls into this category.

Hardscape vs. softscape - what's the difference?

Hardscape covers the built, non-living features of a property, like patios and walkways. Softscape covers the living elements – lawn, trees, shrubs, and plantings. A complete landscape design typically balances both.

What is hardscape work?

Hardscape work includes excavation, grading, base preparation, and installing materials like pavers, natural stone, brick, or concrete. The preparation underneath matters as much as the finished surface, since it determines whether the hardscape stays level over time.
