Hard landscaping in City Of Edinburgh

Hard landscaping forms the structure of your outdoor space, using durable materials to shape paths, patios, terraces and other built features.

If you’re planning a new layout or upgrading tired garden areas, you can find a checked hard landscaping service in City Of Edinburgh with Checkatrade to help create a practical and well-designed garden.

Key elements of hard landscaping

Hard landscaping includes the permanent, constructed parts of a garden that give it structure. Common features include:

  • Patios and paved seating areas
  • Garden paths and stepping-stone routes
  • Retaining walls and raised beds
  • Terracing for sloped gardens
  • Driveways and edging
  • Timber or composite decking

For inspiration, take a look at our garden landscaping ideas and patio design ideas to help you shape your project.

Hard landscaping materials explained

Selecting the right material affects appearance, durability and maintenance. Popular choices include:

  • Concrete slabs for simple, cost-effective patios
  • Natural stone for a more traditional look
  • Block paving for paths or driveways

To compare pricing options, read our guide to block paving costs.
