Masonry and hardscaping project completed by Interscope Contractors

Masonry and Hardscaping in Harford County, MD



Most homeowners don't call because they suddenly want hardscaping. They call because they're tired of a problem in their yard and have reached a breaking point. Maybe your patio is cracked and uneven, your retaining wall has started to lean, or your walkway or steps feel unsafe. Maybe water keeps pooling next to the house, or you want a yard you're not embarrassed by.

Interscope Contractors has been building patios, walkways, retaining walls, steps, and outdoor living spaces throughout Harford County and Baltimore County for more than 20 years. Owner Mike Leatherman started working in concrete in 1997 and founded the company in 2005.

Proper site preparation and grading are a major part of how Interscope Contractors approaches long-term performance.

Masonry and Hardscaping Services





Interscope Contractors builds concrete patios, walkways, retaining walls, steps, fire-pit areas, and other outdoor living features throughout Harford County and Baltimore County.

Our masonry and hardscaping work focuses on the outdoor concrete, paver, retaining-wall, and related improvements described below rather than every type of general masonry repair or restoration.

Stamped Concrete

We build patios, walkways, and pool-area surfaces with stamped concrete, which is poured as a single slab and stamped with a pattern while it's still workable so it can resemble natural stone, brick, or slate.

Depending on the design and material being compared, stamped concrete can also provide a more economical alternative to some natural-stone installations.

Explore our stamped concrete services.

Decorative Concrete

We build decorative and textured concrete surfaces for homeowners who want something beyond a plain gray slab. Depending on the project, this may include broom-textured finishes, decorative details, borders, and other finish options.

Explore our decorative concrete services.

Paver Patios

We build patios using concrete pavers, which are individual units installed piece by piece instead of a single poured concrete slab.

That provides a wide range of pattern, color, border, and layout possibilities.

Explore our paver installation services.

Fire Pit Installation

A built-in fire pit can create a natural gathering place for family and friends and can be incorporated into a larger patio or outdoor-living design.

Pool Decks and Pool-Area Concrete

Concrete or paver surfaces can be considered around pool areas based on the specific project and site conditions.

Material, color, texture, drainage, sun exposure, and maintenance should all be considered when selecting a pool-area surface.

No outdoor concrete or paver surface should be represented as completely resistant to cracking, fading, heat buildup, or other weather-related changes.

Retaining Walls and Structural Concrete

Retaining walls may be part of a larger hardscaping or property-improvement project, but retaining-wall requirements can vary significantly depending on height, materials, drainage, site conditions, and whether the wall is structural or load-bearing.

For projects involving structural concrete, footings, foundations, or load-bearing conditions, review our foundation and structural concrete services.

Masonry and Hardscaping FAQs



What's the difference between stamped concrete and pavers?

Stamped concrete is one poured concrete surface that's textured to resemble stone, brick, or other materials. Pavers are individual units installed one at a time.

Both can work well for patios and walkways, but factors such as appearance, maintenance, repairability, site conditions, and budget can affect which option makes more sense for a particular property.

Why does concrete crack, and can it be prevented?

Concrete can develop cracks as it cures and responds to temperature changes, moisture, soil movement, and other conditions.

Proper site preparation, reinforcement where appropriate, and correctly planned control joints can help manage cracking, but no outdoor concrete installation can be guaranteed to remain completely crack-free.

How long does a typical patio or walkway installation take?

Project schedules vary based on size, design, site preparation, access, weather, and the materials being installed.

We'll provide a more specific timeline after evaluating your property and the scope of the project.

Do I need a permit for a patio, fire pit, or paver project?

Permit requirements depend on the project type, size, location, and applicable local requirements.

We'll review known permitting considerations with you during project planning so the requirements for the specific project can be determined.

Can you match new concrete or pavers to an existing patio or driveway?

In many cases, a close visual match may be possible.

We'll look at the existing surface, color, pattern, age, and condition and explain what level of match is realistic before the work begins.

How much does a masonry or hardscaping project cost?

Cost depends on the size, materials, site preparation, access, design, and overall scope of the project.

We'll provide a detailed estimate after seeing the site and discussing what you have in mind.
