What is Hard Landscaping?
n
Hard landscaping (sometimes called hardscape) includes all the non-living, structural elements of your outdoor space. This covers everything from paved patios and block-paving driveways to natural stone walls, steps, raised beds, pergolas and water features.
n
In the wet and windy climate of South Wales, properly installed hard landscaping is essential for creating outdoor areas that are beautiful, functional and built to last for decades with minimal maintenance.

Why Choose Welsh Blue Pennant Stone?
n
Welsh Blue Pennant is one of the toughest natural sandstones in the UK. Quarried locally in the Forest of Dean and South Wales coalfield, it has been used for centuries across Swansea, Neath and Port Talbot because it:
n
- n
- Withstands freeze-thaw cycles better than imported stone
- Offers a non-slip surface even when wet
- Weathers beautifully to a classic grey-blue colour
- Blends perfectly with traditional Welsh architecture
