The classic family backyard evokes images of a sprawling lawn, a stylish patio set, and a smoking grill. But in this initial vision, many forget the groundwork for their outdoor space—the patio. Hardscaping sets the tone for the yard’s entire atmosphere. It carries the mood of a home to the outdoors, blending the presence of nature with the personality of the homeowner. This is why a larger patio, one built to support a popular outdoor space, is essential. Here are a few reasons to opt for a larger patio when planning your hardscaping project in Haymarket or across the Triangle Area:

Entertainment: If you enjoy having guests over, a larger patio is the perfect way to accommodate them. With plenty of space, parties or gatherings will never feel cramped.

Climate: The best way to enjoy North Carolina’s temperate climate is with a comfortable outdoor space that includes essential backyard amenities. From a grill to a fire pit to a lounging area, larger patios have space for everything.

Style: With more space, homeowners have more room for designing the patio to match their tastes. Every element of exterior decorating can be incorporated to establish the perfect tone.
