Ep.203 Common hardscape mistakes: Outdoor construction basics - Joel Barnett (In Style Gardens, The Landscaping Podcast)
Description
A sound understanding of hardscape elements is a good feather in the cap for any horticulturist, maintenance operator, or garden enthusiast. Sadly, most of us never get a chance to learn about this part of the garden because we only get to play in the dirt.
In this episode, Joel Barnett (In Style Gardens, The Landscaping Podcast) guides us through some of the most common mistakes that people constructing hard elements make, including professionals and enthusiasts alike. We discuss topics such as concrete, paving, brickwork, pools, timber construction, drainage, irrigation, and much, much more.
By the end of the episode, you'll know more than the cheapest construction crew you can find on Gumtree. Maybe steer clear of retaining walls and pools until you've done your Cert 3, though.
