The Challenge

This Charlotte, NC homeowner needed an outdoor space that solved a specific problem — drainage, sloped grading, an underused yard, or a transition between indoor and outdoor living — without compromising the look of the home. Our team scoped the site, identified the constraints, and proposed a design built around the way the family actually uses the space.

The Design & Material Selection

For this project we specified Belgard pavers, chosen for durability in Charlotte's freeze-thaw cycles and for the way the color and texture sit against the home's existing architecture. The layout was drawn to match the home's sight lines, the lawn's natural grade, and the way the family moves between the house, patio, and yard.

The Final Result

Paver Patio with River Rock and Boulders – Outdoor Living Tip of the Day

Paver Patio with River Rock and Boulders: Creating a Low-Maintenance Outdoor Living Space For homeowners seeking an attractive and low-maintenance Outdoor Living space, the combination of hardscape and dryscape can be an excellent solution.

By combining hardscaping features like paver patios with dryscape features like river rock and boulders, you can create an appealing and functional outdoor area that requires minimal upkeep. One recent project in the Charlotte area involved the installation of a Belgard Savannah Cambridge Cobble Paver Patio set in an I-Pattern with a matching border.

The addition of river rock and boulders provided a natural and organic element that complemented the hardscaping features and created a cohesive design. This project demonstrates the effectiveness of using hardscaping and dryscaping together to create a low-maintenance Outdoor Living space. By selecting materials and features that require minimal upkeep, homeowners can enjoy their outdoor space without the hassle of regular maintenance and upkeep.
