Living in Florida means you likely spend time outdoors, especially from the comfort of your landscape. That's why you should ensure you have proper paved features. The right hardscape installation can enhance your home with functionality and improve protection. Here are some hardscape features you need for your Florida home.

Patios

According to PR Newswire, a whopping 90% of Americans value their outdoor living spaces more than ever before. One of the most popular features of an American home is the patio or deck. When you have a patio, you have a solid surface to sunbathe, stretch out in front of your pool, host parties, cook on a grill, and more. Patios provide comfortable spaces to entertain and socialize with family and friends. Plus, your patio can add value to your Florida home because patios are highly sought after. Having a home with an upgraded patio can make your home more appealing to buyers if you put it on the market.

Pool Decks

Most Florida homes come with a pool to cool off in the Florida sun year-round. When you have an inground pool, you should have a solid deck around it. Pool decks provide additional protection around the wet areas of the pool.

Retaining Walls

A hardscape installation that can protect your home is a retaining wall. Retaining walls may be made from stone, brick, cement, or a combination of materials. Thanks to the retaining wall, you can prevent erosion on your property. These walls can also double as a display for when you have outdoor movies on summer nights. Retaining walls add to the overall beauty of your backyard.

Walkways

Make your Florida home more welcoming with designated walking paths. Professionals can add this hardscape installation around the front and back. You can have a walkway leading from your front to your back door. Do you have several structures on your property? Install walkways leading to various structures on your property, such as a guesthouse, gazebo, greenhouse, and more.
