Create Lasting Outdoor Beauty and Functionality
A well-designed landscape starts with more than just plants. The foundation of any inviting, functional outdoor space is hardscaping; the stone, brick, and structural features that give your yard shape, purpose, and personality.
Think about the first impression people have when they arrive at your home. Is it a cracked concrete walkway? Or is it a welcoming paver path that curves toward a patio designed for gathering and entertaining? That difference comes down to professional hardscaping.
At Mark Hoerr Landscaping, we create outdoor spaces where design meets durability. From elegant retaining walls to custom patios, we deliver hardscaping solutions that enhance your home’s beauty while solving practical problems like drainage, erosion, and uneven terrain. Since 2006, families and businesses across Peoria, East Peoria, Morton, and Washington IL have trusted us to bring creativity, craftsmanship, and care to their outdoor living projects.
Hardscaping Services That Keep Your Outdoors Beautiful
We specialize in designing and building custom outdoor features that not only look stunning but also stand the test of time. Whether your goal is to add structure, improve functionality, or create a backyard escape, our team has the expertise to make it happen.
Our hardscaping services include
- Brick and Patio Pavers Upgrade your backyard with a custom patio that becomes the hub for family gatherings, cookouts, and celebrations. We use high-quality pavers available in a variety of colors, patterns, and textures to match your style and your home’s architecture.
- Retaining Walls Retaining walls serve both practical and aesthetic purposes. They prevent erosion, create usable terraces on sloped yards, and add striking dimension to your landscaping. Our retaining walls are built to last with materials that blend seamlessly with your outdoor design.
- Walkways and Pathways A well-placed walkway not only provides safe passage but also adds elegance and flow to your outdoor space. We design walkways with pavers or stone that are durable, weather-resistant, and easy to maintain.
- Landscape Edging Keep lawns, flowerbeds, and gardens crisp and organized with professionally installed edging. It creates clean lines, reduces maintenance, and highlights the beauty of your landscape design.
When you choose Mark Hoerr Landscaping, you’re not just getting a project completed. You’re getting a long-term investment in the beauty and functionality of your home.
We Solve Real Problems for Your Home
When you choose Mark Hoerr Landscaping, you’re not just getting a project completed. You’re getting a long-term investment in the beauty and functionality of your home.
Erosion and Drainage Issues Properties in Central Illinois often struggle with sloped yards or water pooling near foundations. A professionally installed retaining wall or properly graded yard prevents these problems and protects your property from costly damage.
Worn or Unsafe Pathways Cracked sidewalks or uneven stepping stones can be both dangerous and unattractive. We replace them with level, slip-resistant pavers that enhance safety and curb appeal.
Unusable Outdoor Spaces A yard with no structure often goes unused. We transform bare or sloping land into functional areas with patios, terraces, or firepits that encourage relaxation and gathering.
Overgrown Edges and Borders Without defined boundaries, flower beds spill into lawns and create extra maintenance. Our clean, professional edging keeps everything in its place while giving your yard a polished look.
With the right hardscaping, your outdoor space goes from a hassle to a highlight of your property.
