About Our Hardscaping Services in Burnaby
For over 14 years, Legacy Landscaping Burnaby has been the trusted hardscape contractor Burnaby homeowners rely on for functional, enduring outdoor structures. We specialize in creating custom patios, stone walkways, and retaining walls that are not only aesthetically pleasing but are engineered to withstand the specific environmental challenges of our region. Our approach to hardscaping in Burnaby goes beyond surface-level beauty; we focus on meticulous site preparation and foundational integrity to ensure every project stands the test of time. From initial excavation to the final touches, our team of over 560 completed projects demonstrates a deep understanding of how to integrate non-living materials into the landscape, providing structure, usability, and significant curb appeal. We solve common issues like uneven patio surface solutions and poor yard drainage with proven techniques. Our technical expertise is rooted in a comprehensive knowledge of materials and methods. We work with a wide range of high-quality products, from classic interlocking stone and natural flagstone to durable granite pavers and elegant bluestone. The key to longevity, in our experience, lies in what you can't see: the base. We adhere to industry best practices for base preparation, ensuring a minimum of 6-8 inches of compacted gravel base for patios and walkways, and even more for driveways or load-bearing structures. This critical step, combined with high-grade landscape fabric to prevent weed growth and proper compaction in lifts, prevents the heaving and sinking that plagues lesser-quality installations. We utilize precise slope grading from the start to ensure water is directed away from your home's foundation, a crucial detail often overlooked. Living in Burnaby means dealing with significant rainfall and freeze-thaw cycles, which can be destructive to poorly installed hardscapes. Our team has direct experience designing and building structures that manage these conditions effectively. We often recommend permeable pavers as a modern solution to drainage problems in yard spaces, allowing rainwater to percolate naturally into the ground.
