Why Start a Hardscape Project in Fall
Starting a hardscape design during the fall has huge benefits because it helps to save money. Below are the benefits of doing a hardscaping project during the fall.
1. Saves Cost
Fall usually comes after a slow landscaping period of winter. Lower demand during this season makes labor and hardscaping supply less expensive during summer, just like in winter. The lower price translates into greater savings or an ability to afford higher quality materials or more striking design than at other times.
2. Less Damage to Your Yard
The ground is nicely hard at this period, and most plants are at the dormant stage. The conditions are ideal for hardscaping without heavy punching to the property. The lawn and soil will get less damage from equipment, excavations, and more foot traffic associated with hardscaping projects if it happens in the fall.
3. Faster Turnaround
Lower demand for land and hardscape experts during fall means that many will work on a project from start to finish compared to summer and spring. Acquiring hardscaping materials in the fall is quicker, and the crews will not be squeezing a project into a jam-packed schedule that reduces the pace of work during other seasons.
4. Less Disruption to Other Activities
Yards are unlikely to be active during fall and winter, creating an attractive window to upgrade or renovate by adding hardscape materials. Furthermore, the resulting noise from hardscaping will not be bothersome, like during summer when house windows are usually open.
5. Enhanced Weed Suppression
Many weeds are dormant during the cooler periods, and hardscaping at this time provides an advantage in fighting them. Patios, pathways, and other hardscapes together with associated landscaping work like mulching can stifle weed seedbeds.
6. Ideal Weather
The weather in fall is more pleasant for outdoor work than the sweltering summer heat. Mild weather favors some hardscaping applications like allowing slower and even drying or mortar. Fall hardscaping projects are more viable as the weather, cost, and availability of professionals all work favorably.
