The below reasons why Fall and Winter are the best times of the year to start hardscaping projects. The major reason is timing. When you build your hardscapes in Winter, you’ll be able to enjoy them come Spring, unless you include a firepit. Timing the design and constructions allows you to maximize your use of your hardscapes. But timing is not the only advantage to installing hardscapes in Fall or Winter. Let’s dig a bit deeper into why you ought to consider the “off-season” for getting this sort of work done.
· Cost Savings
· Quicker Turnaround
· Less Damage to Your Yard
· Enhanced Weed Suppression
· Less Disruption
· Often Ideal Weather
So put on your warm jacket – we will see you at the Yard or call us at (703) 339-8095 for pricing and details.

A flagstone pool deck in Annandale, VA, adds distinct advantages to your home landscape. Flagstone performs better than a concrete or asphalt surface because it permits rain water to infiltrate th ground slowly rather than run-off, gathering pollutants and contaminants along the way. If you are considering installing a flagstone pool deck in Annandale, VA, here are some unique points to consider:
Flagstone pool decks create a rustic, natural look. Plant moss, or “steppable” ground cover between the flagstones instead of mortar for a more natural effect. Flagstones are quarried in a variety of sizes, colors, and shapes, so no two flagstone patios ever look the same. Flagstone pool decks in Annandale, VA require little maintenance, with routine sweeping or a simple periodic hosing off. Flagstones feature shades of brown, blue, red and mixed colors. And a bonus – the natural texture of flagstone pool decks in Annandale, VA also provide a safe, no-slip surface ideal for pool environs.
People just love the look of classic flagstone. Adding a classic flagstone pool deck in Annandale, VA can also boost the resale value of your home.
