You\u2019ve decided to install or renovate your outdoor patio space, and dream of stepping out onto a new surface that will be home to your outdoor living room or dining space. Selecting a safe, durable material that matches your home and works well in your climate is essential. For landscape installations in Vancouver, BC, the two most common outdoor patio materials are pre-cast concrete pavers and flagstone. <\/p>\n
Concrete pavers<\/b> are very durable, come in many shapes, sizes, patterns and colours providing homeowners with endless design options. The look can range from modern (square pavers lined up in a grid pattern), to traditional (three different sized bricks laid in a running bond pattern). If you plan on parking a vehicle on a concrete paver driveway, smaller bricks are optimal as they can handle the weight of your vehicle. Large sized pavers used in driveways tend to break or crack as you may end up having one tire loading a quarter of the vehicle\u2019s weight on a single paver. <\/p>\n
Flagstones<\/b> are akin to rock-like pancakes as they are flat, somewhat circular and with uneven edges. They come in standardized thicknesses between 1″ and 3″. Flagstones can be bought in many shapes, sizes and colours and can be worked together like a piece of art. Flagstones can be arranged to create a beautiful patio surface and the cracks can be planted with woolly thyme or other ground covers for a scented and natural effect. <\/p>\n

Long-lasting and natural, you can use rock walls to transform your outdoor space. Looking for a grand entrance as guests walk in off the sidewalk? Or you may want to design curved garden bed walls to providing extra seating on top of a beautiful feature wall when you host gatherings in the backyard. <\/p>\n Rock walls can be made from of a variety of rocks of different colours, sizes and shapes. You can choose the rock material that perfectly complements your home. There are different ways to install rock walls: dry-stacking or using mortar to cement the rocks in place. <\/p>\n Dry stacked rock walls<\/b> use the form of individual rocks against one another to lock into place. Chisels and sledgehammers are used to customize your rock wall and ensure a strong and secure wall is built. <\/p>\n Mortared rock walls<<\/b> are locked in place. This is a good option for high traffic areas, for families with active kids and pets, or for those looking to build taller walls that require additional reinforcement. <\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=”Estimate request box” _builder_version=”4.7.5″ text_font=”Cormorant Garamond||||||||” text_text_color=”#2d2d2d” text_font_size=”30px” text_line_height=”1em” header_2_font=”|700|||||||” header_3_font=”|700||on|||||” header_3_font_size=”20px” header_3_letter_spacing=”1px” header_3_line_height=”1.7em” background_color=”#c2ce22″ text_orientation=”center” custom_padding=”10px||10px|” text_font_size_phone=”14px” text_font_size_last_edited=”off|phone” z_index_tablet=”500″]<\/p>\nRock Walls<\/h1>\n
