PRESERVES YOUR GRASS AND LANDSCAPING
How many times have you yelled at your kids for trampling the grass, flower beds, or perennials? If this is you, then it's time to add in a paver walkway. Having a designated path to walk on is usually a good solution to not having your landscaping trampled by your kids or anyone. You won't have an unsightly brown spot or path any longer with an installed walkway by Compass Outdoor Design.
PROMOTES SAFETY
Walkways are usually installed to be level and easy to walk on. When it's dark outside and there's no pathway, you can end up walking all over the place, perhaps stepping in an unseen hole and twisting your ankle. When it's raining outside, walkways are places to step so your shoes won't get soaked or muddy. You can easily carry materials up and down a walkway. Kids can walk easier on walkways instead of uneven ground, especially if they are younger. Stone walkways are just a good idea all around.
ADDS AESTHETICS
Walkways are a great way to add variety to your outdoor living design. They can add texture and color as well. They can unify a space by being complementary, or they can help to divide a space by creating an abrupt separation. A carefully designed walkway adds aesthetics to your front or backyard that can make the overall landscape design pop. Combined with other features, such as a water feature and perfectly placed flowerbeds, you'll have a sight to fill your soul with every glance.
INCREASES HOME VALUE
We've all seen homes that have minimal landscape or no landscaping. Perhaps they have a small tree or a few bushes. They may just have a yard full of grass with nothing else, giving it a blah look. When you add in cool and unique landscaping features such as paver walkways, you'll not only add value to your home, but you'll also add value to your life as you enjoy your outdoor living space much more.
ADDS ADDITIONAL LIVING SPACE
Your front and backyard are valuable areas of your home that you can repurpose into amazing living spaces that you can enjoy for years to come. Let's face it, if you have a blah backyard, you probably aren't outside very much since there is nothing visually appealing about it. However, if you add architectural elements, such as water features, pergolas, and garden paths, you'll be surprised at how much time you actually want to spend there. When you come home late after a long day of work and rushing the kids to and fro, it's akin to heaven sitting in your backyard with a drink and the stars and yourself. Truly, there is nothing better.
