The outdoor living industry has come a long way from pressure-treated decks and basic paver patios.
Today’s homeowners expect more: cleaner lines, longer-lasting surfaces, eco-friendly solutions, and year-round usability.
At Buma Landscaping, we stay ahead of the curve by incorporating cutting-edge materials into every design. Backed by over 20 years of hands-on experience and certifications in drainage, horticulture, and construction, we know what works—and what’s worth investing in.
Here’s how material innovation is shaping the future of outdoor living.
1. Porcelain Pavers: Durability Meets Design
Forget concrete pavers that fade or stain over time. Porcelain pavers are:
- Stain- and scratch-resistant
- Low maintenance
- Available in modern, natural textures like wood grain, stone, and concrete finishes
- Frost-proof and slip-resistant
They’re ideal for clean, contemporary spaces and clients who want high-end beauty without the upkeep.
2. Composite Decking: A Smarter Alternative to Wood
Natural wood will always have charm—but composite decking offers:
- Zero splinters, sanding, or staining
- Resistance to fading, warping, or rot
- Sustainable content (many brands use recycled materials)
- A longer lifespan
It’s perfect for families and entertainers who want a luxurious, low-maintenance outdoor surface that still feels warm and organic.
3. Synthetic Turf: Clean, Green, and Always Perfect
Synthetic grass has come a long way. Today’s turf blends visual realism with performance:
- No mowing, watering, or fertilizing
- Excellent drainage for rainy climates
- Pet- and kid-friendly options
- Year-round green without the hassle
Used creatively in courtyards, dog runs, or modern play spaces, turf brings a polished look that solves real-world problems.
4. Modular Drainage & Structural Solutions
We hold NDS drainage certification for a reason—even the most beautiful materials fail without a solid foundation.
Today’s innovations include:
- Slot drains that disappear into the design
- Modular retaining systems that combine strength and style
- Subsurface solutions that preserve the look of patios, turf, and plant beds
Smart drainage isn’t a “nice to have”—it’s a must for performance and longevity. That’s why we design it before we build anything else.
5. Sustainable Materials and Smart Technology
The next wave of material innovation includes:
- Permeable pavers for water management
- Recycled content in decking and pavers
- Low-voltage LED lighting for energy efficiency
- App-controlled lighting and irrigation systems
When innovation meets function, the result is an outdoor space that’s not only stunning—it’s smart, sustainable, and scalable.
