Why Winter is the Perfect Time for Hardscape

January 20, 2021

With the cold air and Winter season upon us, our organic landscaping slows down and makes the perfect opportunity for hardscape landscaping projects. Hardscapes are projects involving bricks, stone, cement, and construction of outdoor living spaces and walkways. Hardscaping involves heavy materials and heavy foot traffic and machinery around your grass, flowers, shrubs, trees, and waiting until winter helps minimize damage to the natural landscaping on your property. RSSY can help design, source, and execute your hardscape project without damaging your existing landscape. Call us today for details.
