Say Goodbye to Winter
While the winter might be behind us, we are still left with the clean-up of our lawn and walkways. The snow, cold and salt all work to destroy walkways, so while it’s time to start thinking of yard repairs, it’s also the perfect time to consider revamping the walkways and paths on your property.
Get a Fresh Start
If you’re simply looking to clean up stains leftover from the winter, consider a chemical treatment to bring your walkways back to life. If you’re fancying a change, your options are endless. Whether you have walkways from the sidewalk to your front door, through your garden, or around your house, there are various materials and styles to select from.
From brick, gravel, cut stone and stepping stone, it’s best to first select a material that complements your home and landscape design.
Go Gravel
Gravel paths are great for the backyard or through a garden when you don’t necessarily want to follow a specific route. Instead, gravel paths give you the option of creating wide spots and points of interests so that you and your guests can create your own route.
Don’t be fooled. There is nothing wrong with a classic front porch display of a wreath and holiday flowers or plants. Keeping it simple can be extremely classy.
Or Style with Stone
Cut stone is an additional option available for designing a new walkway. Cut stone comes in both rectangular and square, and together they pair beautifully. By creating a walkway with both rectangular and square cut stones, you’re left with a unique design. When used individually, they are perfect for a small and narrow pathway.
Will you be updating your walkways this spring? If so, what material are you leaning towards using?
