Expert Hardscape Design For Elegant Outdoor Living

The professionals at Koch & Associates create hardscape designs that blend our clients’ sense of style with quality craftsmanship and 35 years of landscaping experience.

We’re proud that our hardscape design expertise contributes to the trend toward upgraded outdoor spaces. While outdoor living has long been popular in temperate California, homeowners in our state are increasingly choosing hardscape solutions for their properties that are more elaborate and sophisticated.

They are discovering that a beautiful flagstone patio, well-equipped outdoor kitchen, or cozy pergola makes family gatherings or dinner parties more elegant and enjoyable. At the same time, upgraded hardscaping is affordable compared to other home renovations and improves property values just as much.

TWO MAJOR ASPECTS OF HARDSCAPE DESIGN

A hardscape design plan by Koch & Associates considers two major factors:

  • Your vision. Every project Koch & Associates undertakes begins with a detailed conversation about your vision for the space. In order to develop a hardscape design that functions well, year after year, we try to understand your lifestyle, personal habits, and sense of taste. We’ll ask questions such as; do you prefer a formal or more casual appearance? Do you entertain mostly at night or during the day?
  • The site. A Koch & Associates designer makes a detailed assessment of every project site before planning. Hardscape design takes into account the size and topography of the site in order to choose features that are appropriate and in proper scale, determine a budget, and set a work schedule.

Once you are absolutely satisfied with our plan, construction begins. Virtually every project encounters unforeseen problems after shovel meets soil, but a good hardscape design plan takes into account potential difficulties to minimize delays.

CALL FOR A HARDSCAPE DESIGN CONSULTATION

Koch & Associates typically implements a master-builder approach, in which we handle all phases of a project, with a single manager dealing with each client. However, we also collaborate with other contractors to make your landscaping dreams a reality.

WHAT CLIENTS SAY

PAIGE C.

If you want a beautiful landscape and a wonderful experience getting there, hire Koch & Associates!
After finishing my ADU, we had a front and back yard that consisted entirely of dirt.  And weeds.  And an old, cracked concrete patio.  Our  ADU was built at grade (for the back half of the property) while the front house was almost a foot higher, so in addition to wanting a beautiful landscape, we also needed someone with the technical skills to address the grading issue.
The final result is a gorgeous landscape, driveway, paths, a firepit, a fountain, and loads of plants.  We highly recommend Koch & Associates and would give them 10 stars if we could!
