Hardscape Built Around the Property
Pavers, patios, walkways, retaining walls, steps, and outdoor spaces planned around how the property looks, drains, and functions.
More Than a Finished Surface
More Than aFinished Surface.
Good hardscape starts below what you can see. Base preparation, grading, drainage, material selection, transitions, and sequencing all affect how a patio, walkway, retaining wall, or paver system performs after the project is complete. EC approaches hardscape as part of the property, not as a collection of disconnected installations.

Retaining Walls & Site Features
Retaining Walls& Site Features
Retaining walls can solve grade changes, create usable space, define areas of a property, and support the overall function of an exterior space. We plan each project around the conditions of the site, including elevation, drainage, access, materials, and surrounding structures.

- 02 Raised areas and site features
- 03 Steps
- 04 Grade transitions
- 05 Structural hardscape elements

Grading & Drainage
Grading &Drainage
What happens to water matters just as much as what the finished project looks like. Grading and drainage are considered as part of the hardscape scope so patios, walls, walkways, and surrounding areas work together after installation.
