  • Sledgehammer. A sledgehammer is one of the most commonly used tools by hardscapers. It’s excellent for demolishing things, breaking up concrete, and driving stakes.
  • 2.String Line. A string line is ideal for creating ample curves or checking edging alignment on a patio or walkway.
  • 3.Bricklaying Trowel. When installing a brick patio, one needs to get a bricklaying trowel! This tool allows a person to handle bricks and mortar easily and spread them evenly on the surface where the bricks will be placed.
  • 4.Wheelbarrow. These tools allow you to transport large items such as bricks, pavers, gravel, and sand.
  • 5.Tamper.A tamper compacts stone dust and soil while constructing paths, patios, or other projects. Some tampers have handles to make work easier. These are great if you’re doing a small-scale project by yourself. Call home for more details!
