We’ve rounded up some of our best tips in this shrub trimming guide to help you determine whether trimming your shrubs and hedges is something you want to do on your own, or whether it’s something best left to the professionals.

What is a Seat Wall & How to Add Them to Your Patio: Landscape Design Ideas for Great Falls, Ashburn, & Leesburg, VA

As you plan the landscape design for your outdoor living area, you’ll find that the so-called “little details” are not so little after all. In fact, every single detail of your project truly matters if you want to have a space that you can use and enjoy to the fullest.

Of those details, seat walls are an important consideration.

A seat wall is a short wall that is purposefully designed so that it can also be used for seating. It can be a great way to double the value of a retaining wall that you already need for erosion purposes. But seat walls can also solely be built for aesthetics and for seating (even if a retaining wall isn’t functionally needed).

Although it might appear like one of those seemingly small details, a seat wall can be an incredibly welcomed addition to your outdoor living area, helping you to use and to enjoy your space more fully.

Here are some important landscape design ideas to keep in mind if you’re considering a seat wall for your Great Falls, Ashburn, Or Leesburg, VA home.
