Murfreesboro, TN – November 09, 2026 – PRESSADVANTAGE –

Bucket City Deck Contractors has broadened its patio and hardscape division, adding a wider set of outdoor construction services for residential clients this fall. The expansion adds custom paver patios, retaining walls, fire features and walkway installations alongside the company’s existing deck-building work.

The new services are intended for homeowners looking to extend living space beyond the interior of a house, a trend that has grown steadily over the past several years. Projects now available through the expanded division include natural stone and paver patios, seating walls, outdoor kitchens, fire pits and drainage systems built to handle regional weather conditions. Bucket City Deck Contractors said the additional offerings were developed after repeated requests from clients who had already completed deck projects with the company and wanted matching hardscape features to finish the space.

Each hardscape project begins with an on-site evaluation to assess drainage, soil conditions and grade before a design is finalized, according to the company. Base preparation, typically involving compacted gravel and geotextile fabric, is completed before pavers or natural stone are set, a step intended to reduce shifting and settling over time. Homeowners adding a patio or retaining wall alongside an existing deck project can now combine both into a single design and construction timeline instead of hiring separate contractors.

Demand for hardscaping products in the United States is forecast to rise steadily through 2028, driven largely by continued interest in outdoor living features such as patios and outdoor kitchens, according to a market analysis published by ResearchAndMarkets.com. Separate industry research indicates that design-build and hardscape service segments are expanding at a faster pace than the broader landscaping industry, with growth expected to continue through 2031. Residential applications account for the majority of that growth, reflecting a shift toward multi-feature backyard renovations rather than single-element additions.

Well-designed outdoor living improvements can also affect property value, with landscaping and hardscape upgrades estimated to raise home values by roughly 5.5 percent to 12.7 percent depending on project scope, according to construction industry research. The broader U.S. landscaping services industry generated an estimated 184.1 billion dollars in revenue in 2026, reflecting continued investment in exterior home improvements nationwide. Outdoor kitchens, fire pits and multi-level patios are among the features cited most frequently in current homeowner demand surveys.

The expanded division will be staffed by existing crew members who have completed additional training in hardscape installation methods, including paver setting, retaining wall construction and stone masonry. Bucket City Deck Contractors plans to take on both standalone hardscape projects and combined deck-and-patio builds for clients planning full backyard renovations. Consultations for the new services are now being scheduled alongside standard deck-building estimates, with project timelines ranging from several days for a smaller patio to several weeks for combined builds involving retaining walls or outdoor kitchens.

“The expanded services let the company handle a full backyard project instead of just the deck,” said Dave Harris, owner of Bucket City Deck Contractors. “Clients have been asking for a patio or a fire pit to go with a new deck for years, and now that work can be done under one contract with one crew that already knows the property.”

The expansion applies to residential projects throughout the company’s existing service area, and current clients with in-progress deck builds are being offered the option to add hardscape elements to their existing project scope. Materials for the new services include natural stone, concrete pavers and manufactured retaining wall block, selected for durability in outdoor settings. Crews performing the new hardscape work carry the same licensing and insurance coverage used on the company’s deck-building projects, and homeowners can request a combined estimate covering both deck and hardscape work through the company’s existing intake process.
