Are there any special considerations when performing maintenance tasks on a newly installed landscape feature such as a retaining wall or patio?

Retaining walls can be a cost-effective addition to your lawn service profile, but there are some important considerations you should keep in mind. Raised patios built with retaining wall units are a low-maintenance option to replace aging wood decks that require ongoing maintenance.

Retaining walls can be a cost-effective addition to your lawn service profile, but there are some important considerations you should keep in mind. Raised patios built with retaining wall units are a low-maintenance option to replace aging wood decks that require ongoing maintenance. Villa Landscapes designed an elevated terrace replacement in Minnesota with SRW from ground level to 42 inches high to support a paving stone patio. The stairs also built with SRW connect the patio to the house and the patio.

A solid long-term plan should also consider maintenance requirements. Wooden patios, decks and fences will need biennial finishing and staining to retain their new appearance. Cast iron railings will need rust removal and fresh paint. And even the slabs may need to be sealed from time to time.

Planning can allow you to select materials with manageable maintenance needs. Residential maintenance design Build HOA Maintenance.
