Seven Easy Walkway Ideas To Create Curb Appeal

Walkway Landscaping Dallas and Fort Worth TX

We all want our home and garden to appear attractive – especially when there is a neighborly rivalry at play. However, most homeowners aren’t interested in spending unreasonably high amounts of money to achieve the perfect landscape. Thankfully, there are easy walkway ideas that boost curb appeal and allow the whole yard to flow freely.

Natural Stone

A walkway made using natural stone is simply unmatched. You can acquire enough material to craft an entire walkway at just $5 per square foot. Of course, these stones must be set about 3 inches apart to ensure herbs and grass grow between them.

Mulch and Gravel

Mulch and gravel are currently the cheapest pathing materials you can purchase, and they’re simple to work with, too. Just remove the sod, roll out some landscape fabric, then spread the mulch and gravel. The pathway will appear natural and clean.

Stepping Stones

Stepping stones are an incredibly fast and effortless way to create a path. There is very little digging involved, and the stones can be spaced apart to allow growth.

Planks

If you have wood laying around, or can find cheap wooden planks, you can easily dig up some dirt and lay down a path.

Brick

There’s something about brick – that old-school look and feel. A path made of brick requires little upkeep, and is quite a tough material.

Edging

The pathway leading to your front door is typically straight, but the material can be placed anywhere. You could lay out a simple path, then alternate colors, spacing, and grass.

Mixing Material

If you’re particularly creative, it’s possible to mix materials together for a single, aesthetically-pleasing path.

Spring Colors: The Groundhog Speaks

Seasonal Color InstallationOn Feb. 2 – Groundhog Day – it was reported that Punxsutawney Phil, the world’s most famous groundhog, did not see his shadow. That traditionally means an early spring is predicted – and with the icy temperatures around the Dallas-Dallas and Fort Worth area lately, the bold prediction definitely was welcomed.

If Punxsutawney Phil is accurate, it could mean positive things for landscapers. It may be time to discuss seasonal color installation for the spring, and our Dallas and Fort Worth TX lawn care experts provide quality landscape designed to enhance your property for the upcoming spring season.

Landscaping for January and February

Winter LandscapingContrary to popular belief, creating an elegant landscape for the cold months of January and February isn’t a difficult task. In fact, the winter season may be the best time for landscaping.

Although the spring may be the trendiest time to touch up your lawn and patio space, keep in mind that a classy, stylish winter landscape can single you out from the rest of the entire neighborhood. Now is the time to spruce up your property with items such as birdbaths (yes, many of them did not fly south), trellises and arbors. We understand that most flowers will be harmed by the chilly temperatures, but those flowers and small trees (evergreens, for example) that are built for cold-weather environments would make your front and back yards shine.

Winter is one of the best times to take advantage of making your lawn stand out with pottery. Our Dallas and Fort Worth TX landscapers are proud of our “Pots Alive” program, a signature program where we will install decorative pots and install plant arrangements designed to give your property additional flavor. Pots that include small berry trees really can make a home stand out among the rest.

If you’re looking to make your lawn better, winter grasses are available. A large variety of winter grasses exist, and with little maintenance, they can work well with patios, walkways and porches.

There are plenty of opportunities to turn a bland yard in January or February into a winter wonderland. Let our Dallas and Fort Worth landscaping company assist you with your next landscaping design or landscaping installation project. Call us today, or contact us online for information.

New Walkway for the New Year

New Walkway

With the new year literally days away, why not consider a new look for your backyard?

Well-constructed walkway landscaping not only can add a splash of sophistication to your property, but it also can increase your property value by thousands of dollars quickly. Walkways can be either straight or curved, and they can be formed by several different materials. Walkways can come in concrete, brick, gravel, crushed stone or even shredded bark or mulch.

Many families with walkways also own flourishing gardens. Those with gardens who do not have walkways should strongly consider the idea, as they serve as a path for you to manage your flowers or produce effectively, without having to get dirty in the soil surrounding it.

Concrete or brick stone walkways are the easiest answers, as they require minimal maintenance (totally the opposite for mulch walkways). Because of this, they arguably are the most expensive walkway material to purchase, and they also can be heavily labor-intensive. Trained professionals usually are the ones who install these walkways.

Mulch may be more inexpensive to install than gravel or crushed stone, but mulch will require more maintenance as the wood eventually could deteriorate with inclement weather conditions.

Our landscape design company in Dallas and Fort Worth TX specializes in all kinds of walkway installation. We know that a properly installed and managed walkway can improve your outdoor living arrangements. Call our landscaping experts today, or contact us online for more details.
