Stone Borders & Retaining Walls
Stone borders or edging can be installed around a flower bed to enhance the look of your landscaping plants or to help prevent unwanted grass. Typically, stone borders or edging used for decorative purposes are installed in a dry-stack method which means there is no mortar used to bond the materials together.
A stone retaining wall bonded with mortar and sitting on a concrete footing is aesthetically pleasing as well as structurally functional. These retaining walls will help retain soil and prevent erosion in a sloped yard and possibly correct drainage problems by redirecting water. Furthermore, if installed properly, stone retaining walls with mortar and a concrete base can prevent grass from invading your flower beds.
Having a professional landscape designer assist in the stone selection process is important because they will know which products work best for each application (decorative or structural) and how to assemble them.

Stone Patios & Walkways
A stone patio can expand your usable outdoor living square footage. Imagine an outdoor living room where you can add patio furniture and relax in the outdoors most of the year thanks to our mild north Texas climate. If you enjoy entertaining friends and family outdoors, you might consider adding an outdoor, BBQ grill, refrigerator and flat-screen television to your patio space.
Stone walkways or pathways can serve as an extension of your patio, leading to other outdoor areas such as a fire pit, seating wall or garden. These pathways can also be installed as a functional passageway connecting different sections of a property to help traverse sloped and muddy side yards that seem common in many Frisco TX homes.
There are several stone masonry products to choose from when building a new patio or walkway. Our design team can help choose products that compliment your home’s exterior, function best for the space and keep the cost of stone patio installation within budget.

"We used Main Street Lawn Care and Landscaping to redo all of our beds in the front yard and different areas in our back yard. Katie came out and helped design everything. She had wonderful ideas and I was able to see a picture before we made our final decision. David came out and placed all the plants where they were to be planted so I could see if we needed any changes. They did an incredible job. We love our new landscaping. Thanks Katie and David."
