My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Hard scraping

12 years ago
Hi I love the simplicity of your entry. I was wondering if the hard scraping is poured concrete or are they large pavers placed beside one another. Thanks for your reply!

    Thank you for your question Bella. The hardscape is actually a combination of poured concrete walls and stairs with 2'x2' concrete pavers. The cast-in-place elements function as edging (and retaining walls) and ensure that the pavers stay in place. I hope this information is helpful!
