Retaining Walls, Patios & Pavers in Boise, ID

Hardscaping Built by a Licensed Contractor

Hardscaping is the backbone of a great yard. Walls, patios and walkways give your landscape structure, turn a slope into usable space and create places to gather with friends and family.

Hope Taylor Design is a licensed Idaho general contractor, so we don’t just design your hardscape, we build it. We specialize in stamped concrete, retaining walls, flagstone walkways and custom outdoor living spaces, and we use pavers when they’re the right fit for the job.

And because we design the planting too, your walls and patios will look like they belong with the rest of your yard.

Recent Hardscape Projects

A few of the walls, patios and walkways we’ve built around the Treasure Valley.

Slope to Sanctuary

A multi-tiered Stonewall II retaining wall with drainage behind it, topped with a lush shade garden in Boise.

Fairway Sanctuary

A natural stone retaining wall and a crescent-shaped concrete patio overlooking the golf course in Kuna.

Open-Air Elegance

An extended stamped concrete patio, a custom gas firepit and a winding concrete path in Meridian.

Retaining Walls

If your yard has a slope, a retaining wall can give you back space you can actually use. On a challenging Boise hillside, we built a multi-tiered retaining wall with Stonewall II pavers to flatten the front yard, with a subsurface drainage system behind the wall to manage runoff and protect against erosion for years to come.

In Kuna, we framed the upper level of a sloped backyard with a rustic natural stone retaining wall and custom garden beds overlooking the golf course.

Stamped Concrete Patios

Stamped concrete is one of our favorites. It’s durable, it can be colored to match what you already have and it gives you the look of stone. In Meridian, we extended a client’s existing patio with matching stamped concrete and added a custom gas firepit. In Kuna, we poured a crescent-shaped concrete patio with two semi-circular steps that sweep down into the garden.

Paver Installation in Boise

Looking for paver installers in Boise? Pavers are a great choice for walkways, bed borders and retaining walls. They come in all kinds of shapes and colors, and they can be laid in patterns that give your yard a custom look.

We’ve used concrete pavers to break a Meridian backyard into sections and give each area its own feel, and Stonewall II pavers to build a terraced retaining wall on a Boise hillside. We’ll help you decide whether pavers, stamped concrete or flagstone is the best fit for your space.

Flagstone Walkways

Nothing says garden quite like a winding flagstone path. In Kuna, we added one to lead guests through the yard, drawing the eye away from the property lines and toward the greenery. It’s one of the ways we gave an average-sized yard the feel of a much larger estate.

We used HTD for our backyard makeover and it thoroughly exceeded our expectations. From the patio extension that was dyed and stamped to match our existing patio to the plantings all around the yard everything was done professionally and with us, the customer, in mind. The crews that did the work were all cordial and friendly and would consult with us if there were any questions. Taylor was always available if we had questions and never balked if we had any last minute changes. From start to finish she never said “no” to any of our ideas, instead it was always let me see what we can do to make this work. All in all it was an amazing experience made even more enjoyable working with such a professional team.

Engaging Hope Taylor Design to transform our front and side yard was the best decision we’ve made. From beginning to end she brought her design expertise, creativity and thoughtful plans to life. I appreciate that she listened to what I liked and suggested what would work in our space. She brought in highly professional staff to accomplish every task. We are truly grateful for our beautiful landscaping and recommend Hope Taylor Design for all landscaping projects.

Wow!!! What amazing service from Hope Taylor Landscape Design! She returned my call promptly when no one else would. She was great at communicating with me and had a tree guy (Phil) out the next day to get the job done. She made it work even though she is also very busy. Both Taylor and Phil were nice as can be, knowledgeable and handled everything professionally. Couldn’t be happier! WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND 😊

Ken, Ron & Wesley did amazing work! We had a complicated design where they connected a new cover to one we had built years ago. The two areas were different heights, and they not only made it work, but also made the design of the two parts match perfectly!
