Lemon Property Services builds patios, walkways and other approved outdoor surfaces for homes across the Denver Metro area.

Structure And Usable Space For Your Yard

Hardscape is the non-living part of a landscape: patios, paths, edging and other built surfaces. Good hardscape makes a yard easier to use and ties planting areas together.

Because these surfaces change how water flows, we plan them with drainage in mind so runoff does not end up against the house or pooling on the new surface.

Common Reasons For Hardscape Work

  • Add a patio for seating or dining
  • Create a clean, safe walkway through the yard
  • Replace worn or uneven surfaces
  • Define planting beds and lawn edges
  • Connect outdoor areas into one layout

How A Hardscape Project Works

  1. 1

    Discuss Use And Layout

    We talk through how you want to use the space and where the surface should go.

  2. 2

    Choose Materials

    We compare material options for look, budget and the area's use.

  3. 3

    Plan Grade And Drainage

    The surface is pitched so water moves away from the home.

  4. 4

    Prepare The Base

    Excavation and base preparation are what keep surfaces level over time.

  5. 5

    Build And Finish

    Installation, edging and cleanup, followed by a walkthrough.

What Affects Cost And Scheduling

Hardscape estimates depend on the surface, the site and the material.

Size And Shape
Square footage, curves and steps.
Material
Concrete, pavers or other approved materials each cost differently.
Removal
Removing existing concrete, turf or rock.
Access
Getting equipment and material to the work area.
Weather
Concrete and base work depend on temperature and ground conditions.

Local Considerations

  • Colorado freeze and thaw cycles make base preparation especially important for surfaces that stay level.
  • Some cities and HOAs have rules on surface coverage, setbacks or materials. Check before finalizing a design.
  • If a permit is required, approval comes from the city. We cannot guarantee permit outcomes.

Hardscaping & Concrete Questions

What Is The Difference Between Hardscaping And Landscaping?

Landscaping usually means living elements like plants and turf. Hardscaping covers the built surfaces such as patios, walkways and edging.

Do You Build Structural Retaining Walls?

We do not offer structural engineering. Walls that need engineering are outside this service.

Can Hardscaping Be Combined With Other Work?

Yes. Patios and walkways are often planned with planting, drainage and lighting as one project.

When Is The Best Time For Concrete Work?

Concrete needs suitable temperatures to cure properly. We schedule around weather and confirm timing in your estimate.
